* AlwaysSomeoneBetter: {{Zigzagged|Trope}} - while the Goa'uld are noted to have ''far'' more efficient plasma weapons than the Covenant (a zat takes out over ''85%'' of Chief's shields in one hit), they're far more fractitious and much less effective in battle.

* EarlyBirdCameo: The Replicators are given a mention in Chapter 6, where it's implied they were the entities to attack the SG-version of Reach. When they finally appear in full in Chapter 8, John and Cortana wonder if they were what Exultation was talking about.

* AlwaysSomeoneBetter: {{Zigzagged|Trope}} - while the Goa'uld are noted to have ''far'' more efficient plasma weapons than the Covenant (a zat takes out over ''85%'' of Chief's shields), they're far more fractitious and much less effective in battle.

* ContrastingSequelAntagonist: When comparing the Goa'uld to the Covenant, John notes that both are theocratic empires who put divine impetus to the destruction of Earth's forces and have a penchant for EnergyWeapons, but are otherwise quite different - the Goa'uld openly portrayed themselves as gods while the Covenant merely claim to be on the path to godhood, the Covenant are much more racially diverse than the Goa'uld who prefer human hosts, the Goa'uld want humanity as slaves while the Covenant wanted mankind wiped out, and finally, the Goa'uld are ''far'' more disorganized than the Covenant ever were, as even in the worst moments of being a DecadentCourt, the Covenant was never actively at war with itself (keep in mind John knows nothing of the Banished at this point), while the System Lords actively fight over who gets to be emperor.

* NotSoAboveItAll: When Jack asks John how Mia meat tastes, John actually thinks back to the last time he had a moa MRE before realizing he can't remember the taste and says that he has heard it is good.

* WhamEpisode: Chapter 8, ''Nemesis'': [[spoiler:the Replicators make their canonical debut, and when Thro beaks up O'Neil to assist in defeating them, John and Cortana get pulled along for the ride. The ensuing fight and effort to destroy Thor’s ship results in Cortana being revealed to SG-1, and another character from ''Halo'' finally makes an appearance… and it is ''[[BackFromTheDead Foe Hammer]]'']].

* SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute: John mentally notes that the Replicators are exactly what he'd expect a mechanical version of the Flood to be.

* StereotypeFlip: The majority of monitors encountered in ''Halo'' tend to be rather trigger happy and sociopathic. The sole monitor in this story, Patient Exultation, is much friendlier and more bubbly, apparently on account of two facts - her installation not being designed to combat the Flood, and maintaining contact with her fellow monitors in the ''Stargate'' universe.

* RagnarokProofinf: {{Subverted|Trope}} for once regarding the Forerunners - while still relatively intact, their Installation on the ''Stargate'' version of Reach shows visible wear from the passage of time, with several of the surrounding tunnels having collapsed due to ongoing natural processes. Addrionally, the installation's monitor, 096 Patient Exultation, reveals it lost most of its constructor sentinels when the facility was attacked by an unknown enemy (heavily implied to be the Replicators), making repairs difficult.

* EntertaininglyWrong: Since the UNSC uses the same ranks as the forces of the United Stares, Hammond initially assumes that John is from the Navy after hearing that he is a Master Chief Petty Officer.

* OddNameOut: 096 Patient Exultation breaks the trend started by 343 Guilty Spark in that her name does not involve something relating to guilt, while her numerical designation is not a power of seven (or even divisible evenly by seven, for that matter). Justified because she is not the monitor of a Halo installation.

* StereotypeFlip: The majority of monitors encountered in ''Halo'' tend to be rather trigger happy and sociopathic. The sole monitor in this story, Patient Exultation, is much friendlier and more bubbly, apparently on account of two facts - her installation not being designed to combat the Flood, and maintaining contact with her fellow monitors in the ''Star Gate'' universe.

* OutsideContextProblem: John is this to Stargate Command, as they've never encountered a time traveler from an alternate universe - they have experience with both, just not with both simultaneously.
