The fact that they can both remember events in these timelines while no one else can proves to be important as [[spoiler: Hermione]] has developed a deep loathing for Daphne Greengrass based on events that occurred in the alternate timeline and [[spoiler: Harry]] is able to summon both a Patronus and Fiendfire based on memories that only he can remember happening.

** Much to Harry's frustration this becomes a RunningGag during the start of fourth year when he grumbles that he will have to use his Occlumency more than usual to keep the Gryffindor boys' newfound obsession with Lavender Brown's developing figure from distracting him in class and even the normally unflappable Blaise Zabini finds himself tongue-tied whenever he is in the presence of Cormac McLaggan.

* DarkerAndEdgier: The fic is this when compared to canon, albeit not to the same extent that many other fanfics are. The villains are a bit more vicious, there are character deaths starting much earlier in the narrative, there is the occasional innuendo or SexyDiscretionShot, and the characters are not above dropping a PrecisionFStrike for dramatic or comedic effect when the situation calls for it. In other words, while canon started out in PG territory and slowly drifted towards PG-13, this fic starts off firmly in the PG-13 rating and pretty much stays there (with some of the violence possibly pushing into a mild R).

* LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters: The canon story already has a ton of characters and every one of them that has a role there has some sort of role here as well if not an even larger one. This is in addition to all of the original characters and minor canon characters who also pay significant roles. There is a reason that the author has compared the number of characters to Literature/WarAndPeace.
