* IJustWantToBeSpecial: Algerith seems to have a lot of insecurities about being the son of a famous and powerful wizard, but being himself not very magically gifted and having to work twice as hard to master even simple spells. It makes him resentful of Kat and doesn't help their already fractious relationship.

* AnOfferYouCantRefuse: Hechoton's job offer to Kat could be interpreted this way, although he's quite nice about it. After she accidentally teleports into his home, somehow completely bypassing his magical wards, he interrogates her, magically binds her to a chair while he leaves the room, saying he has "plans" for her...and comes back with a job application. While it's unclear if he would ''actually'' have turned her over to the guard as a burglar, but he certainly implies it.
