* The climax of ''His Majesty's Dragon'' has two. UsefulNotes/NapoleonBonaparte deserves one for having the sense to bypass the British command of the Channel outright via dragon-borne troop carriers while drawing off the experienced formations of the Aerial Corps down to Spain. As a result of it young Temeraire and his captain Laurence end up fighting a battle to fend off the landing that they cannot hope to win... then the former's breath weapon, the aptly named [[MakeMeWannaShout Divine Wind]] emerges.

* Laurence and Tharkay butt heads in ''Black Powder War,'' with Tharkay engaged in [[TheGadfly deliberately suspicious behavior]] out of a long-standing resentment for the way other Englishmen have treated him. Laurence finally confronts him on it, and Tharkay speaks bitterly of the constant racism brought on by his half-breed status. Laurence immediately offers an apology if he ''personally'' has given offense, and Tharkay grudgingly admits that Laurence hasn't. It's a RatedMForManly discussion that begins their unshakeable friendship.
