13* {{Animorphism}}: Jareth still has his [[OminousOwl barn owl form]] but also a wolf one.
14* AntiquatedLinguistics: The fic is deliberately written in antiquated Spanish. So good luck trying to run it through automatic translation engines.
15* BerserkButton:
16** Calling Jareth a coward is ''not'' wise.
17** Also implying that Wallas might be wrong is bad for health.
18%%* CheshireCatGrin: Both Sarah and Toby.

30%%* GlamourFailure: [[spoiler:...Except Sarah.]]
31* HeroWorshipper: Toby finds Jareth very cool. Bordering on IrritationIsTheSincerestFormOfFlattery at times.
32* [[WeAreAsMayflies Humans Are As Mayflies]]: The [[SuspiciouslySpecificDenial reason]] Wallas gives why he isn't concerned about that spoiler in the {{Glamour}} example... [[SchmuckBait do you want to question him]]?

35* ItWasAGift: Jareth got his iconic pendant from his father as a gift.
36%%* LargeHam: Both Jareth and Wallas.
37* LateArrivalSpoiler: As the fanfic has several sequels (in Spanish) and there are fanarts of [[spoiler:S/J children]] by the author it's not much of a secret how it [[BabiesEverAfter ends]] for the readers of the comic.
38* MageSpecies: Jareth and Wallas are identified as ''wizard'' and ''warlock'' respectively and explicitly ''not'' human.

45* PowerFloats: Jareth can defy gravity at will.
46* RagtagBunchOfMisfits: A brooding wizard, a self rescuing damsel, a grumpy dwarf, a little kid and a cowardly talking rat-lizard creature. Yep. They fit.
47* TeamPet: Dash, [[TalkingAnimal talking]] [[MixAndMatchCritter rat-lizard]] {{muppet}} thing.
48%%* SmugSnake: Jareth's general attitude.
49%%* SnarkToSnarkCombat: Jareth and Sarah so much that a reader described their relationship with the #98 rule of the EvilOverlordList.
