* OneSteveLimit: So far in effect in Averted. Taylor is initially disturbed to learn that one of her new roommates is called Sophia, the story proper, but a same name as one of her highschool bullies. Several of Dalet's new Sophia has appeared, heroes take cape names that were previously used in Bet, such as has Hero and Cherish. And TJ, short for Terrence Jay, shares his first name with one of Danny's employees [[spoiler:who learns about Taylor's past as a new Hero.villain.]] As the latter had only appeared once before, thirteen chapters ago, while TJ had just recently been introduced and become one of Taylor's friends, it can be a bit confusing for anyone who'd forgotten the employee's name when a user posting as Terr_Ence makes several extremely negative comments about Taylor on Parahumans Online.
