** ''Fanfic/AbraxasEmptyFullness'': The first and last scenes of "Damnatio Memoriae" mention an alien religious text called the Ghee'haszhra. The opening reveals that [[AbusivePrecursors the Makers]]' work on [[BioweaponBeast creating Ghidorah]] was inspired by the Ghee'haszhra. And the closing has Ghidorah itself, having just wiped out an entire planet for the first time and now set to [[TurnedAgainstTheirMasters eradicate the Makers next]], recalling how its victims screamed the name Ghee'haszhra, with the implication that Ghidorah (who isn't yet called such by itself) will take a distorted memory of the name as its own name in the future.

* ''Fanfic/FashionUpgrade'': The story opens with Lila spinning her sob story, and Principal Damocles reassuring Bustier that she hadn't done anything wrong. It ends with Bustier trying -- and failing -- to convince Marinette to transfer back, with Marinette letting her know that yes, she ''did'' in fact make some critical mistakes.



* Lila's arc in ''[[Fanfic/MissingMiraculousLadybug Missing]]'' is tied up this way. It's noted that when she first arrived at College Francoise Dupont, she was surrounded by rumors and speculation as the mysterious NewTransferStudent. She departs in much the same fashion, only the rumors swirling round her now are much less pleasant. Rather than whispering about her supposed connections to [[CelebrityLie celebrities and famous figures]], everyone's gossiping about her potential connections to Marinette's disappearance, [[GossipEvolution wildly speculating]] that she might be involved in ''human trafficking'' and other horrific endeavors. She's still the center of attention, just like [[AttentionWhore she's always wanted]]... but without any of the ''admiration'' she desired.
