* VindicatedByHistory: InUniverse. When ''Wylding Hall'' first debuted, it received good reviews but didn't catch on. However, it gained popularity over time, to the point where many famous musicians claimed to be influenced by their album and several characters imply the band would draw an instant commotion were they to show up somewhere and play impromptu like they did in their early days. They also note that Wylding Hall itself--the building--is now famous by association with them. The band's famous enough in the present that the book is framed as a collection of retrospective interviews with them about the creation of their famous album--decades after it was actually created.

* AmbiguousDisorder: Julian was incredibly smart and talented but hyperfocused on his interests and showed little interest in anything outside them, hated being touched, rarely spoke, and struggled and failed to make his unusual ideas understood by others. It's also made ''very'' clear that Julian had NoSocialSkills and didn't understand other people ''at all''--Lesley even jokingly calls Julian's best friend William his "interpreter," and Tom refers to Julian as an "innocent" who needed to be protected from those who would take advantage of him. It's implied Julian's actions before his disappearance were attempts to reach out and find others who could understand the way he saw the world, but these efforts failed.

* ImpliedLoveInterest: Though he had interactions with each that could be interpreted as romantic, whether Julian was actually romantically interested in Airana, Lesley, or even the mysterious girl he hyperfocused on is never made clear. Many of the band assume Julian was romantically interested in the mystery girl, but Lesley notes the two never actually did anything besides seclude themselves together.
