* ContrivedCoincidence: When Alice and Pashka go back home in the end, by a pure coincidence, they end up in their own world at once. Justified, since having them endlessly drag through parallel worlds with little hope to find their own would have made the novella a lot darker, and Alicia's whims would have eventually seemed a picnic.

* BizarroUniverse: Two of them.
** In one of them, the political system is so different that Alicia is the Lady of Singapore, Ruler of Free Sumatra and Hereditary President of Jakarta. And unlike Alice whose titles are mostly honorary, Alicia really has to do the ruling. Pavel, meanwhile, is a freelance painter (the Pashka familiar to the readers has never showed any particular love for arts). And both of them are way more villainous (see EvilCounterpart below).
** In another, the pearl moths, nearly extinct in Alice's world and extinct in Alicia's world, are abundant to the point of being invasive, and Aleina Selezyonkina is doing research on how to decrease their numbers.
