* JerkassHasAPoint: Considering the war-torn world they live in, Maya is perfectly justified in teaching Laika how to defend herself and make most of the curse to protect their people. But to say she could've been nicer about it would be an understatement.
-->'''Maya''': You're useless, Laika. But I'm gonna change that, once and for all. [...] You're still useless, but don't worry. I'll turn you into a killing machine. [[TrainingFromHell Whatever it takes]].

Where We Live's local watering hole. Despite the name, no one really forgets how shitty their life is here, and the atmosphere is far from lively.

* EveryoneHasStandards: When Laika expressed reluctance over getting attached to the newborn Puppy, Maya immediately reprimands her. Her methods may be [[ToughLove questionable]], but even she draws the line at parental neglect. YMMV whether it was genuine or out of pragmatism, however.

* SpottingTheThread: He catches on pretty quick that Laika isn't the "Radio Guy" sent to repair the Birds' communications like she claims to be, noticing that she's relieved shen they get past the first Bird checkpoint, that she's carrying a shotgun and most glaringly that she doesn't know the actual infrastructural layout of the Birds' radio system. Luckily for Laika, he doesn't care and actually winds up helping her due to his fellow hatred of the Birds.
