Added DiffLines:


* OnlySaneMan: She's probably the one of the least quirky mammals in the courtroom at any given time, (wood chewing habits aside) but that comes with the cost of having to suffer through the mania of not only the witnesses, but also the defense and prosecution.

* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Kind of her whole deal. As judge, it's her duty to ensure that proceedings go smoothly and that each side has a fair chance to prove their points. Noted as tough, but fair.

* AscendedExtra: He was merely another one of Lucy Sang's contacts in the Born to be Drabbles. In this story, he's given much more focus, fleshing our his backstory and relationship with Lucy.



* FatChef: His description says that he could probably pass for the less flattering answer to a "three-humped camel" joke.

[[folder: Ria Nepeta]]
The gardener of Casa Tigre. She was also Lord Tigre's mistress, and when Tigre discarded her, she killed him in a fury.
----
* AcquiredPoisonImmunity: She's completely immune to the effects of her own catnip, due to years and years of substance abuse with it.

* ArtisticLicenseBiology: Mention is made of her retracting and unsheathing her claws a couple times over the course of the trial, but cheetahs are the only species of feline that ''can't'' retract their claws.

* BusmansVocabulary: She regularly makes gardening puns and references, calling Delilah an "evergreen" attorney.

* ObfuscatingStupidity: Her ditzy demeanor and spaced out nature is all just an act. As noted above, she's totally immune to catnip, and only plays it up to fly under everybody else's radar.

* SuperSpeed: Being a cheetah gives her a natural degree of this, but its elevated to ridiculous levels by virtue of Ace Attorney logic. Might also be how she manages to sculpt topiaries quickly and accurately.

* VerbalTic: Nyah. She's even given a unique BigWordShout in the form of '''Nya ah ah''', which is probably meant to either be the vocalization of a FingerWag, or an EvilLaugh.

* AscendedExtra: She was even more of a minor character in Fanfic/BornToBeWilde than Delilah and Eric, only showing up in a single scene in Drabbles, [[spoiler: where she's killed off soon after. To boot, the entire chapter was AllJustADream.]] She gets significantly more screen time in this fic, and even has a relationship with Delilah, the deuteragonist.



* NightmareFetishist: {{Downplayed}}. She's not overtly fascinated with the corpses she autopsies, but being a {{Workaholic}} in her field brings up the definite implications of this trope.

The chef at Casa Tigre. He fell in love with Lara Tigre, and planned to propose to her, which earned the entire staff the ire of Lord Tigre.

* FatChef: His description says that he could probably pass for the less flattering answer to a "three-humped camel" joke.

* HairTriggerTemper: He's not the most patient of individuals, to put it lightly. The reason he was out of a job before coming to Casa Tigre was because he got on the wrong side of a health inspector, and the health inspector saw the wrong side of his frying pan.

* SupremeChef: He allegedly managed to cook an infamously complex meal om only his second try.

* TokenHeroicTeammate: By the end of the case, he's the only member of the staff who hasn't tried to assassinate Lord Tigre. Though it's downplayed somewhat since he was a massive AssholeVictim and most of them could hardly be called ''evil'' for wanting him dead.

* GentleGiant: He's technically a Sun Bear, the smallest species of bear in the world, but still looms over most small mammals. He's also one of the most polite and helpful characters in the whole case, and surprisingly meek as well.

* HiddenDepths: While he may seem no bark, no bite, he was a professional wrestler before becoming a bodyguard. That being said, he was disgraced after he got frightened of a hyena's maniac laughter and fled the ring, which is exactly what you would expect from him.

* OcularGushers: His tears warrant a flood hazard to smaller mammals, and quite often at that.

* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: Had he not accidentily delivered the poisoned Delishafish, Ria wouldn't have had the thought to use it to kill Lord Tigre. Subverted, as even if he hadn't delivered the fish, and hadn't delivered the cart as per Monty's orders, there's still a very likely chance that Lara Tigre would have killed him instead.

* CreepyMortician: {{Downplayed}}. Her general personality is upbeat and not too distressing. However, her familiarity with corpses gives her a slight disadvantage when trying to interact with the living, coming off as a tad awkward.

* NightmareFetishist: {{Downplayed}}. She gets just a little too excited about realizing the victim's true cause of death, quickly realizing that she herself probably wouldn't have been too enthused by it. She also sliced open dead bodies for her job every day, so this trope probably in effect in several ways.

* NoSocialSkills: She clearly has trouble around people, as seen when her jokes fall flat in the courtroom. Eric assumes himself that she "doesn't have much life outside of the lifeless."

* DeathByIrony: The nose ring she was so excited to be wearing ends up being the perfect conduit for her HighVoltageDeath.

* HighVoltageDeath: Slammed into a junction box by a moving car. At least, that's what the original assumption is. Her actual murder weapon was a car battery and jumper cables.
