* {{Badass}}: Pretty much ''everyone'' in the Organization is Badass to one degree or another, [[DarkerAndEdgier but in this universe]], it seems to be played up a bit. The prose even uses the phrase "as though Roxas were already a shadow of the badass he [[FutureBadass would eventually become]]."
** In chapter 3, [[spoiler: Roxas apparently gets half his face melted off and shrugs it off like it's nothing]].

!!This fic provides examples of:



* DarkerAndEdgier: Not enough to warrant more than a T rating (so far), but Roxas's debut fight against some Heartless {{Mooks}} in the second chapter is notably more savage than most fights in KingdomHearts canon, and the Guardian fight in chapter three is near-horrific.

[[FridgeLogic Given that he's a Nobody]], and his "emotions" are hinted to be genuine rather than an act, Gundam Kaizer has some explaining to do.
