1	* ActorAllusion: The fic runs with these like crazy, from Sarah Walker to Junko Zayne Shepard to the Omar Smuggler Drebin. You might want to check in on the Characters page for the full set for major characters. Other ones on minor characters include:
2	** Creator/MichaelShannon as [[Film/ManOfSteel a warmongering general]].
3	** Nathaniel Lees as [[Film/TheMatrixRevolutions the pilot of a poorly-armoured,]] MoreDakka-spewing mech.
4	* CreatorBacklash: Ignus hates the Noveria arc due to how frickin' ''long'' it is.
5	* FandomNod:
6	** Adam using a fridge as an ImprovisedWeapon in the first prologue could be a reference to the MemeticMutation of Adam knocking out entire armies with common fridges and vending machines. He also later casually uses a public toilet's sink in the same way.
7	** Garrus incapacitates a whole group of Drell mercenaries to get something the group needed, rather than negotiate it from the mercs. Jensen felt like chastising Garrus for it, but then he remembered that he would do the same thing[[labelnote:+]]Knocking someone out and stealing their important item is an accepted strategy in [[VideoGame/DeusExHumanRevolution the source game]].[[/labelnote]]
8	** In chapter 24, when [[spoiler: trapped in a lab on board the ''Durendal'']], Adam's automatic response is to look for an air vent.
9	** In chapter 26, we learn of The Jensen: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y414Q7vVgYU Adam can dance if he wants to/he can leave his friends behind...]]
10	* ThrowItIn: [[https://forums.spacebattles.com/threads/mass-effect-human-revolution-thread-4.289209/page-174#post-17883722 IgnusDei confirmed]] that Conrad's "Shadowrun sourcebook" is actually Sarif's Hail Mary pass at preserving SI's cybernetics research. Hein realized that the instant he saw it, and that's where he's getting all his new toys from.
11	* WhatCouldHaveBeen:
12	** In chapter 23 author's notes: "I really wanted to have Anderson say [[VideoGame/ModernWarfare Oscar Mike]] here at some point... but I resisted the urge of [[ActorAllusion slapping in]] [[Creator/KeithDavid yet another reference.]]" He finally gets to make the joke in chapter 41.
13	** [=IgnusDei=] allowed Website/SpaceBattlesDotCom-based readers to vote on the characters who would follow Adam onto Noveria. In the chapters that followed, he included several asides that showed how the story could have been changed if different characters had been included in the party. He also held a [[http://forums.spacebattles.com/threads/noveria-preparations-poll.268118 vote]] on specialized equipment for the run on Europa Genomics.
