* CreatorBacklash: Minna is more reluctant to talk about both this and ''WebComic/ARedtailsDream'' as they were both written during a period of her life when she was an atheist and budding nihilist, and she'd rather focus on her more Christianity-influenced works.

* IKnewIt:
** Writing [[MuggleMageRomance romance fics between mages and non-mages]] resulted in fans speculating about non-mages having their own safe areas in the dreamscape long before it got confirmed in Chapter 17.
** At least one commenter called Lalli's stay in Emil's dreamscape safe area resulting in SharingABody with him.
** And another correctly guessed that the ghosts [[spoiler:are the spirits of those treated with the failed 'cure']].

* FanNickname: Fans of the webcomic have come up with names for many of the characters who weren't named in the story world at the time.
** Braidy: The man on the title page with the big red braid. His real name is Reynir Árnason.
** Captain Lady: The woman with the cropped red hair. Her real name is Sigrun Eide.
** Medic: The man with the needle. His real name is Mikkel Madsen.
** Derp Kitty: The cat on the cover and the latest addition to the team. Real name unspecified as yet. Also: "the purrito", for when she's towel-wrapped and cute with it.
** Unflappable Train Lady and Unflappable Train Guy: Crewmembers of the Dalahästen. The woman's name was later revealed to be Agneta.
** Hippo Shrimp: [[http://sssscomic.com/comic.php?page=158 This fellow]].
** Miss Hearty Undead: The lovely woman that Emil punches in the face on page [[http://sssscomic.com/comic.php?page=170 170]].
** [[http://www.sssscomic.com/comic.php?page=186 The Cat-tank, Cattank or Catmobile]].
** Handsy Moose: The creature that attacked Lalli in the dream world - the name references Hiisi Moose, a MonsterOfTheWeek from Minna's [[Webcomic/ARedtailsDream previous webcomic]].
** Mama Cat. Because she is a MamaBear in feline shape.
** And, we have the infected wolfhound most often nicknamed Cthulhund or Spiderdog with the possible Good Doggy persona locked inside that nightmare horror.
** [[Myth/NorseMythology Sleip]][[NightmareFuel nope]] for the tentacle horse ghost thing leading the pursuit of our heroes, and its many, many friends are the murderghosts.
** Reynir's mohawk-sporting brother was generally referred to as "Punkbruddir" until the family tree revealed his real name is Bjarni.
** Notoro: The name for this weird vaguely adorable troll which Emil and Lalli encounter [[http://www.sssscomic.com/comic.php?page=910 here]]
** Sentinel mage [[http://www.sssscomic.com/comic2.php?page=177 Väinö Väänänen]] went unnamed for the first few pages of his appearance, and so was promptly nicknamed 'Seagull Santa'.
* FriendlyFandoms:
** With ''Webcomic/ShotgunShuffle'', due to a WorthyOpponent scenario in the finals of the 2014 Top Web Comic vote.
** A one-way case has developed with ''Webcomic/ScandinaviaAndTheWorld'', due to the webcomic being a Nordic-centered version of ''Webcomic/HetaliaAxisPowers'' and hence one of the less boring ways of getting a crash-course on those countries for readers who came to ''Stand Still, Stay Silent'' without knowing much of them beforehand.

** The family tree was published almost three years into the comic's existence. In the meantime, fanfic writers had come up with their own idea of the exact numbers of generations there had been between the DistantPrologue and the present timeframe and names for both seen and unseen family members of the main cast. The canon tree tossed many of those out the window.

** The GodNeverSaidThat situation above resulted in fanfics depicting the time after the expedition assuming that the entire main cast would survive Adventure I. The actual Adventure I ended with the crew "short a person".
