* ButICantBePregnant: Hekapoo and Marco were both sure it wasn't possible to have a baby together, so when they do have a child together, they call her a miracle. Janna assumes that H-Poo was lying since Marco should have been careful enough to use contraceptives, though later chapters confirm that none of the rest of the MHC thought that it was possible either, and a room that [[TruthSerum forces everyone to only say the truth]] makes it clear that Hekapoo was being honest.

* BadassFamily: Hekapoo is one of the strongest beings in the multiverse, Marco survived 16 years in another dimension and became a hardened warrior, and their daughter easily fought off several magical robots that Star and Pony head had having trouble fighting by herself.

* TruthSerums: During the quest in Paris, half the group ends up in a room that forces people to tell the truth when they speak, which Janna uses to confront Hekapoo about whether Seraph's conception was really an accident (it was). They can only leave when one of them says something deeply personal ''without'' being prompted, which Hekapoo does after Janna confronts her.

They can only leave when one of them says something deeply personal ''without'' being prompted.

* AGlitchInTheMatrix: [[spoiler: The Dream Eater’s victims can be awakened by this method. For example, Seraph being mentioned in dreams where she doesn’t exist gets some people to question things, and Marco is able to reach Alphonso and Ferguson fairly easily because they’re dreaming of being a centaur again, which is a recurring dream for them ]].

* ButICantBePregnant: Hekapoo and Marco were both sure it wasn't possible to have a baby together, so when they do have a child together, they call her a miracle. Janna says H-Poo was lying since Marco should have been careful enough to use contraceptives.

* ShipTease: Hekapoo and Marco seem rather close despite not having any formal relationship. Flashbacks show that, much to Angie’s relief her granddaughter was not born out of base lust but moments made by explicitly romantic feelings.

* SuperPowerfulGenetics: Considering Seraph's parentage, it's not surprising. What is however, is that she also inherited the understanding of advanced math and physics that Hekapoo uses to craft dimensional scissors. To the point Ms. Skullnick had to send the girls work to scientists to get graded.
* SurprisePregnancy: Both Marco and Hekapoo are surprised at Hekapoo's pregnancy as neither thought it was possible for them to have a child together. Hekapoo even states that she didn't even know she was pregnant until she went to the hospital to find out why she felt 'sick,' only to find herself going into labor right when she arrived. Janna doesn’t buy Hekapoo’s story and insists she was lying about thinking Marco couldn't impregnate her, noting that a boy like him WOULD use protection.

This fic is AU, diverting from the end of Running with Scissors. Instead of StatusQuoIsGod the effects at the end of that episode linger. Namely the affects alluded to at the end where Marco feels out of place returning to Earth after 16 years from his view point. It also has the added consequence of him having a child with Hekapoo in what some assumed to be an OffScreenRomance they shared.

* AmicablyDivorced: Though Marco and Hekapoo were not in any formal relationship and they aren’t together now, they still seem to get along. That said, it's rather strongly hinted that both are still drawn to each-other (namely when Hekapoo is under the spell of a truth serum).

* InterspeciesRomance: Marco, an ordinary human. Hekapoo, the all powerful immortal magical ruler of her own dimension. They might not be together officially after Marco reverted back into a teen, but under a truth spell Hekapoo all but bluntly admits she still feels strongly for him.
* LovePotion: Zigzagged. When Marco and Hekapoo come back from her dimension after seconds away [[note]]Which translates to months in her dimensions timeframe[[/note]] acting lovey dovey and planning marriage, Star believes that Hekapoo put a love charm on Marco. [[spoiler: She's half right. Marco ''is'' charmed… but so is Hekapoo. It's also noted that Marco and Hekapoo used health potions so even if they are charmed, there would be no way of making a distinction between the effects of the health potions and a love spell.]]
** Averted with [[spoiler: them both. It's not a love charm effecting them. Rather a parasite that causes the infected to feel great love for each other… before laying eggs in them and letting their babies eat their victims alive then spreading to those nearby.]]

* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: Janna claims that Hekapoo 'must' have lied to Marco about thinking he couldn't get her pregnant, because their is no way that 'The Safe Kid' wouldn't have used protection before sleeping with his baby mama.

* OlderThanTheyLook: Discussed in universe. Moon admits to herself that she often forgets that Hekapoo is far older than her despite looking far younger.
* PervertedDrooling: Hekapoo starts doing this when she's telling her daughter about her and Marco's first date, and reaches the part about the first time they slept together. Fortunately for Serpah, her mom stopped actually telling the story after she got to the part about their first kiss and started staring off into space.

** One of the themes of the story is Marco learning to accept both sides of his life, before he went into [[YearInsideHourOutside Hekapoo’s dimension]] and after he came out, instead of just returning to the StatusQuo like in canon.

* [[ManChild Woman Child]]: Seraph is a unique case, as despite physically being 14 she will sometimes act much younger. This is justified as she 'is' only about a month old, and didn't seem to grow up as fast mentally as she did physically. She is often shown to act like an over excited child. She still has dolls and responds to moments were she believes she is in trouble like a small child would.

* WhoWantsToLiveForever: Hekapoo has started to see the downsides to immortality with her daughter being mortal.

** Dia is an expy of Diane from ''Manga/SevenDeadlySins''.

After spending 16 years in another dimension Marco is finding it a little hard to readjust to his life back on Earth. Then a few days later Hekapoo shows up at his doorstep with a daughter, their daughter! Needless to say, he's going to have a lot more stuff to get used to.

* BullyingADragon: OK, Marco underwent a 16 year-long quest, held off a coup that consisted of some of the multiverse's greatest warriors and has a kid with Hekapoo, one of the members of the Magic High Commission. Said kid also helped against the coup and is said to be incredibly powerful. So naturally, Heinous thinks the best option is to attack them, try to kidnap Seraph and insult Marco and Hekapoo's affair right to Marco's face. [[{{Understatement}} Not the best idea in hindsight...]]

* HealItWithFire: Hekapoo can't actually heal with her fire powers. What she can do however is use heat to help with blood circulation. Preventing bruising, loosening up muscles and causing the natural healing process to go just a little faster.

* LovePotion: Zigzagged. When Marco and Hekapoo come back from her dimension after seconds away [[note]]Which translates to months in her dimensions timeframe[[/note]] acting lovey dovey and planning marriage, Star believes that Hekapoo put a love charm on Marco. [[spoiler: She's half right. Marco ''is'' charmed.....but so is Hekapoo.

* OCStandIn: Seraph's design is heavily inspired by the unnamed Marcapoo daughter from a non-canon page in [=MoringMark=]'s ''FanFic/ShipWarAU'' fan-comic

** One of the themes of the story is Marco learning to accept both sides of his life, before he went into [[YearInsideHourOutside Hekapoo's dimension]] and after he came out, instead of just returning to the StatusQuo like in canon.
** Though she comes to understand Marco's perspective regarding the whole ordeal, Jackie still [[DidNotGetTheGirl breaks up with Marco]] when she finds out he cheated on her and got Heckapoo pregnant.
*** Star is hurt as well, considering the obvious hints across the series that she's smitten with Marco. It even gets to the point where she's certainly uncomfortable around Seraph when she knows that the girl means her no harm.

* ShipTease: Hekapoo and Marco seem rather close despite not having any formal relationship. Flashbacks show that, much to Angie's relief her grand daughter was not born out of base lust but moments made by explicitly romantic feelings.

** There are several quick cameos during the Battle Nexus Tournament, including Goku from ''Anime/DragonBallZ'', Tifa from ''Series/FinalFantasy'', and Emiya from ''VisualNovel/FateStayNight''.
