Main plot
- During the wormhole alarm, Sol can comfort their fellow children by starting a game of "Rambutan", which is about who can list the most types of fruit. Cal claims that corn is a fruit note , prompting the game to erupt into a huge argument...Narration:...as many games of Rambutan do.
- After after getting a very rare hug from Flulu, Sol is more weirded out by that than by the Eyebeast they just killed.
- If Sol decides to investigate the spot where Sym first appears, they notice the lack of any items that could have indicated someone camping there, including a note saying "I'm watching you. Signed Mysterious Figure."
- If Sol discovers that the pixie beans have drug-like effects on all members of the colony in the process of undergoing puberty via a shift in the xenobotany lab, Geranium to asks Sol how they are feeling after having eaten the beans for an entire week. Sol responds by playing around with a beaker as if it were a small ball, then giggling for no apparent reason, giving Geranium his answer.
- During the pixie bean induced Spin the Bottle game, Dys responds to the bottle landing on him by slicking his hair back, unbuttoning his shirt and wiggling his eyebrow as part of a deliberately exaggerated effort to make himself look appealing.
- During their very first conversation with Sym, Sol can ask for a wish to be granted. One of the things they can ask for is a thousand Kudos. Sure kid, make this your quasi-first impression on an alien civilization.
- The narration at some points states that Cal is radiating so much joy at being a new father that it can probably be picked up from Earth.
- The first time Noctilucent visits the colony at the head of their army of xenos, Sol can shout "Go to hell, Noctilucent!" from the colony walls if they've seen them in a previous life. Noctilucent has just enough time to make an expression of outraged confusion before Anemone puts a bullet in their chest.
- From the second iteration of the "Life on Earth" timeline onwards, any complaint about the repetition will prompt Ancient Sol to respond for the first time since before the wormhole was destroyed by asking if the ending is "Not epic enough for you," in constrast to their usual quite solemn (and repetitive depending on the number of playthroughs it took to unlock shield recalibration) dialog.
Friendship/romance storylines
- Sol can bond with Dys by eating a worm. And doing so gives you a powerful card!
- The dare Sol can give Dys after they get more than 80 points in Bravery is asking him what the deal between him and Tang is. This comes after the worm-eating dare and a dare to go into a restricted area.
- Pursuing a relationship with Sym can lead to a scene where Sym and Sol decide to watch a holo-film together, and he discovers the "adult film" section of the holo-archive, which wasn't on the copy Sol gave him earlier. He worriedly asks if he needs to reshape his avatar to be a "busty lady" or have "12 inches".
- While discussing his age, Sym mentions he once spent four hundred years as a mushtree because he didn't want to speak with another Gardener.
- In Sym's epilogue, he struggles to fit in with the rest of the colony, even if you're the first person to understand his species deeply. He tries shapeshifting into more humanoid forms to adjust, but one time, he returns to the colony as a swarm of heckle-bees just to prove that Gardener consciousness transcends physical form.
Job events
- Sol is called upon in class to describe hopeyes' defense mechanism, and blurts out, "They fly?" This kid is who the fate of the planet depends on. What's more, this gives out a more powerful card than the correct answer!
- If Sol becomes a Supply Depot clerk in charge of the nanoprinter, their first month on the job will have some of the other children put in joke orders. The third and last one is for a product called "ID-10-T gas", put in by Tangent, of all people.
- One event at the Supply Depot has Sol become an instrument to what seems to be a poor attempt on Seeq's part to court Instance. Tangent warns that going through with the delivery will ruin everyone's day the second she sees Sol arrive with a package. Instance refuses it, telling Sol to shove it up a certain orifice of Seeq's, provided Sol can find space to do so with the stick Seeq is already keeping there according to her. If Sol opens the package at any point, an option that is encouraged by the prospect of a new card, its contents turn out to be a hand-sculpted nude figurine of Instance. It's possible to have Sol keep it just for the sake of doing so. It's also possible to stick everything in the recycler, then tell an unusually excited Seeq that it was delivered and Instance liked it. The latter option results Sol getting a nice tip and being really sure this isn't going to come back to bite them later.
- Congruence pretending to have been corrupted by a video game Nomi-Nomi installed on her just to make sure that the lesson about not installing unauthorized software sticks.
- There turns out to be a good reason Nougat is not allowed near the nanoprinter: she once filled an entire room with plastic ducks.
- One of the generic tutoring events during the late teen years consists of Marz putting in a request for help with biology. More specifically anatomy. Sol just gets rid of her message after reading that last part. They are by no means reading too much into it, as Marz has a piece of generic dialog about the biology classes not covering the subset of biology she's actually interested in.
- It's possible to go along with Nomi-Nomi's anime-inspired idea to fix Sol's favorite chronically-broken vacubot. And discover the hard way that the fine for starting a fire in the robotics lab is 10 Kudos.
- One task as Lum's assistant is to turn footage of him participating in a Glow attack, which is noted to be less flattering than he thinks on its own, into a propaganda video. Marz states that it's a great opportunity to put Sol's video editing skills to test and Lum misses the Stealth Insult. The two first prompts for what to do with the footage, which are both card challenges, are making Lum look good and making Lum look bad. The former is marked as a harder-than-average challenge, the latter is marked as an easier-than-average challenge.
- One generic event for playing the photophonor is Sol going around providing an In-Universe Soundtrack for various people, including their most embarrassing moments. The narration goes on to note that Sol "isn't very popular" that month.
- If Sol has a high enough skill in Animals to show Lum and Rhett that Socks is trained, one of the tricks they demonstrate is ordering Socks to attack while pointing in Lum's direction, then stopping her before she actually hurts him.
