Troper Antics:
- Adaptational Heroism: Salem (Alexandria) is Jaune's therapist in this story and is sincere in her attempts to help him.
- Arthur (Theodore) Watts is a medical doctor and one of the few people outside the main cast that treat Jaune with kindness and respect.
- A Nazi by Any Other Name: Cinder is a Neo-Nazi and considers Jaune (and Ruby) as unworthy of life and should be exterminated due to their conditions.
- Broken Bird: Jaune and most of the main girls are this in some form, so it almost qualifies as a Dysfunction Junction.
- Covers Always Lie: The summary for this story is very misleading. Interestingly, this was not intentional. It was originally planned as a one-shot story as explained in the author notes at the end of the first chapter, just a short smut story like the author’s other stories at the time. Then the author expanded on it and gave it a Darker and Edgier plot.
- Early-Installment Weirdness: As stated above, the first few chapters were basically Porn Without Plot story, before it slowly changed to a Plot With Porn.
- Modern AU Fic: Takes place in modern America. Later on, it is revealed that it actually takes place on the Earth of the Marvel Universe, making it a Weird Crossover as the main cast do not have powers.
