Tropes in this chapter

Adaptational Expansion: In the games, Omega was just left behind to keep an eye on Shadow. The fic also adds that Eggman did it out of paranoia that Omega would turn on him like Gamma.
Call-Back: The mech Eggman shows to the White Fang is the Egg-Wyvern.
Continuity Nod:
- Amy explains she knew another robot like Penny, referencing E-102 Gamma. Omega also gives an overview of Gamma's story when explaining the E-Series' history.
- Omega gives a quick recap of Sonic Heroes as he explains to Jaune, Nora and Ren about why he got sealed away and why Metal Sonic is so dangerous. He also references Sonic Adventure 2 when explaining why Shadow was in Eggman's custody.
High-Altitude Interrogation: Shadow gives one to Junior to get information out of him.
Leaning on the Fourth Wall: Roman quips he could've given the White Fang a better speech than Eggman, referencing how he did so in the original episode.
Self-Fulfilling Prophecy: Ren notes how it was Eggman's paranoia about Omega betraying him that led to him sealing Omega away and betraying Eggman out of anger.
