* ArmorPiercingQuestion: [=SaBBaT=] casually asking why Marle wants to become a journalist, she realises she doesn't actually know. The question is quickly swept away, but starts coming back to her mind later on.

* AerithAndBob: So, Joyce and Esther are pretty normal names in Dutch, which could probably also be said about Marle. Then there is [=SaBBaT=], although that is a made-up name.


Added DiffLines:

* BellisariosMaxim[[invoked]]: Marle quickly realizes it's no use to ask [=SaBBaT=] about the apparently nonsensical story of his doujinshi, after he gave a ShrugOfGod to her first question about it and she read two pages of it.


Added DiffLines:

* LargeHam: From the way he promotes his doujinshi, [=SaBBaT=] can fall into this.
** A special mention is the protagonist he created, Tetsuyo. We get to see the doujinshi spread over two pages, and it has the character deliver this:
-->'''Tetsuyo''': (in tears, after his girfriend is abducted by a evil robot) ''No! Hiromi-chan is my GIRLFRIEND! I LOVE YOU!''
