* RealitySubtext: Much of what was happening in Sephirothslave's life at the time when she was writing the story can be glimpsed through the lines: her strained relationship with her parents (conservative Catholics who were disturbed by her open interest in the occult and her insistence that the dreams in which she was meeting Sephiroth were real) and her desire to escape them, her own suicide attempt, the crush her friend Ian had on her, her growing interest in martial arts, her chronic depression and isolation and her frustration with school and boys.

* AuthorPhobia: Julia shares her author's fear of needles and doctors. On top of that, Sephirothslave seems to have been uncomfortable with the idea of sexuality and despised boys as a teenager, leading her to project these traits onto her character.

* EscapistCharacter: In spite of the misfortunes that befall Julia Nakahamou, she is undeniably an escapist character for her author. Through Julia, Sephirothslave escapes her parents (with whom she admitted to having a tense and complicated relationship as a result of her occult interests) and gets revenge on them, enters into a relationship with Sephiroth, moves in with him in a large mansion and ultimately marries him in a lavish ceremony and gives birth to his child. She also becomes a highly successful, famous and well-paid military commander.

** Despite being nice and friendly, Aerith Gainsborough receives the same treatment from the other characters and the author. She is bullied twice by Reno by having ink splashed all over her, one time at school and the other time during homecoming and has other characters call her ugly and be exasperated with her for no discernable reason at all. In fact, when Rude finds out that she'll be in a play, he says he won't waste money to see it. Their negative attitudes are never explained through anything but the author's own virulent dislike of her.

In the one scene she has where she actually does anything and has lines, she is warm and friendly to Sephiroth, helping him pick out the best flowers to give to Julia at the hospital. Despite being nothing but helpful, the moment they leave, Sephiroth berates Yuffie for forcing him to spend time with Aerith and acts like the entire experience was pure torture.
