* In ''Day One'', Butters goes in alone on his first quest. The monster destroys his glasses and lays a fear whammy on him and boasts on how she'll feed on his fear till he dies. Blind and terrified, he calls Harry and asks him to come and help. Harry refuses, because this is something Butters has to do himself, but he briefs him on what he's fighting, and gives Butters the courage to stand and fight.

* Ebenezer and Harry's relationship is wonderfully heartwarming all around. Before, after, and even during their fallout after Harry finds out Ebenezer's the Blackstaff, the relationship is mutually respectful and affectionate, with Ebenezer respecting Harry's wishes and boundaries and wanting what's best for him, and Harry thinking the world of Ebenezer. It's nice to see a student/mentor relationship built on a foundation of trust, love and genuine respect, especially when you consider how few truly healthy relationships Harry has in his life.

* In ''Day One'', Butters goes in alone on his first quest. [[spoiler: The monster destroyes his glasses and lays a fear whammy on him and boasts on how she'll feed on his fear till he dies. Blind and terrified, he calls Harry and asks him to come and help. Harry refuses, because this is something Butters has to do himself, but he briefs him on what he's fighting, and encourages him, giving Butters the courage to stand and fight.]]

-->[[spoiler: “Butters,” he said. “Look. I know it’s hard. But there’s one way you deal with fear (...) You stand up and you kick it in the fucking teeth,” he said, and there was a quiet, certain power in his voice that had nothing to do with magic. “You’ve forgotten the most important thing a Knight needs to remember, Butters, (...) Knights of the Cross aren’t afraid of monsters,” he said. “The monsters are afraid of you. Act like it. Commit to it, hard. And have faith.”]]
