- Dead Fic: The story hasn't updated since October 2018.
- Does Not Like Spam: Subverted. Ruby's hatred of tuna is a hatred of the fish itself, not a distaste towards its meat. She had a traumatic encounter with a tuna as a child.
- Every Scar Has a Story: Weiss received a scar to her eye when someone attacked her because her family's company abuses their faunus workers.
- Trans Nature: Weiss is a human who identifies as a cat faunus.
