* ShownTheirWork: In chapter 20, Luz makes la bandera dominicana, the real life national dish of the Dominican Republic, where her family is from, and she gives Lilith a short history lesson about how the dish is called that because ingredients share a colour with the dominican flag. She also throws in a BilingualBonus by calling it la bandera isla hriviendo, "the Boiling Isles flag."

* CentralTheme: Redemption, specifically LoveRedeems. Luz expresses a strong belief that everyone, no matter how awful, has the potential to become better and deserves the chance to try. Evident of this, Lilith starts out the fic as, to not put too fine a point on it, a horrible, arrogant, selfish person, but with time and love, especially the maternal love she has for Luz, develops into a caring and protective mother figure for the girl. Both her and Luz's stories also show them reaching a hand out to someone who was an antagonist in the original show, giving them the support and love to become better.
