* BaseBreakingCharacter: Kate. Some love her creativity, determination, knowledge and chemistry with Matt. Others find her impetuous and bratty who just has to get her way, whether or not the situation treats these as flaws.
* EnsembleDarkhorse: Nadira, for those who not involved in the ShipToShipCombat with Nadira/Matt and Kate/Matt. Mysterious, beautiful, and yet also a pretty complex character.
* HoYay: When a [[Main/LoveTriangle Love Square]] ensues in ''Skybreaker'', Matt and Kate are ''very'' understanding about how attractive their respective rivals Hal and Nadira are.
