Common Tropes

  • Opposites Attract: Courtney is a CIT who likes being in charge while Gwen is more standoffish to others. Both are incredibly caring people.
  • Wardrobe Upgrade: In fanart, Gwen's goth aesthetic is often heightened to include more makeup and chains. While Courtney usually stays in canonical outfits, she may be drawn with more free-flowy clothing and a wide brim hat.
  • Bonding over Duncan: Many fanworks focus on how they both dated Duncan at one point on the show and how it shaped their relationship during and after they broke up with him. In Total Drama: All-Stars, they were friends.
  • Works may include their friendship, but pair Courtney or Gwen with other characters.
