*AllPlanetsAreEarthLike: Human's issues with this planet are due to allergies, and not being able to digest proteins. There are no issues with the air or gravity. The first time they stepped foot on the planet, they remarked on this:
-->'''Lois:''' It's so similar to Earth. That can't be a coincidence.\\
'''Ren:''' It might not be as meaningful as you think. It might simply be that life of the kind we're used to can only flourish within certain parameters, so the results are familiar without there being some sort of intelligent design behind it.
*AmiableExes: Ren and Kay had a fling a while back. They broke up because of Ren's refusal to open up, but they're still friendly, and still flirty.
*CuddleBug: Pasha hugs everyone.
*DaddysGirl: Ren and her father are very close, while she and her mother are not. Even when she's nearly 70, Ren still recalls her father frequently and fondly.
*HappilyMarried: Ren looks at Pasha and Neela's relationship wistfully.
*InsanelyInternationalAncestry: Set TwentyMinutesIntoTheFuture, this is part of the increasingly international state of Earth.
**Ren is the daughter of a Ghanaian father and English mother, who sees Paris as her home.
**Suh is the child of Korean immigrants, raised in Paris.
*LoveFatherLoveSon: Ren was in love with Suh, and is attracted to her grandson, Sung-Soo, who strongly resembles her. Ren finds her own attraction uncomfortable and inappropriate.
*MotherNatureFatherScience: Ren's mother--an artist--was not supportive of her work, on the basis that it was too much science, too artificial. Her father, on the other hand, was very proud of her.
*OutlivingOnesOffspring: Ren's daughter, who died at age 3.
*SociallyAwkwardHero: Ren--like the author--suffers from anxiety.
*SpellMyNameWithAnS: The Korean transcription is a bit confusing. Lee Suh-Mi is presumable a transcription of 이수미. (It's noted that it's pronounced like the English "sue me," and so she just goes by Suh to avoid that.) Lee Sung-Soo is presumably 이성수. "Suh" and "Soo" are thus the same (수), despite being spelled differently. In the audiobook--read by the author--they are indeed pronounced the same: like the English name Sue.
*UncannyFamilyResemblance: Sung-Soo strongly resembles his grandmother, Suh.
