* EvenEvilHasStandards: Subberted. Mirror Kira doesn't like violence and reins her minions' more violent impulses in. Of course, Mirror Kira herself is more than happy to murder people or order people killed in every single one of her subsequent appearances, indicating she only dislikes Violence that isn't on ''her terms''.

* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Mirror Kira is horrified at Odo's death, which may be part of why she's much more overtly evil in subsequent appearances. Though in this case it's more that she's lost an efficient slavedriver than a loved one.

* PlanetTerra: As with the original ''Star Trek'', Earth is known as Terra here and humans as Terrans.

* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: Kira and Bashir are confused when the Klingon warriors who board their spacecraft back off with groveling apologies the moment they see Kira, mistaking her for the Intendent.

Added DiffLines:

* IgnorantOfTheirOwnIgnorance: Bashir had heard of the original crossover, but Kira hadn't even heard of Kirk before these events. Likely justified as Kira hasn't shown an interest in wider galactic history and none of her Starfleet colleagues would have had a reason to talk about one incident over a century ago.

* MirrorCharacter: Kira's evil Mirror counterpart is remarkably similar to her Prime universe nemesis Gul Dukat, being a ruthless oppressor who justifies herself by claim she's the lesser evil compared to anyone else who'd take the job, whose pretenses of being a kinder, gentler tyrant quickly go out the window when things don't go her way, and who seems to have a thing for claiming consorts from the slave populace that she's in charge of oppressing.

* ContrivedCoincidence: Kira and Odo being on the Mirror Terok Nor makes sense, but the Mirror versions of Sisko, Quark, and O'Brien all being there too is extremely unlikely, given that the circumstances that lead them there in the normal continuity don't exist in the Mirror Universe. Not to mention the existence of Terok Nor, which is designed in the exact same way as the regular counterpart, in the first place.

Sexy Walk was renamed/retooled into Supermodel Strut by TRS.


* SexyWalk: Intendant Kira's default mode of walking.


Added DiffLines:

* SupermodelStrut: Intendant Kira's default mode of walking is a sultry strut, which makes her body language stand out in contrast to Kira.

* EmbarrassingNickname: Mirror O'Brien doesn't like being called "Smiley.""Smiley," a name that [[IronicNickname doesn't fit his rather beaten-down disposition]] and which Mirror Sisko insists on using [[MaliciousMisnaming despite (or because of) his dislike]].
