* BrightIsNotGood: In canon, when using Polyjuice to masquerade as Harry, the potion turns gold. In ''dead things'', despite Harry being Britain's most recent Dark Wizard, the color of his magic (particularly, his Necromancy spells) remains gold. Hermione even {{Lampshade|Hanging}}s this in the narration.

* DarkFic: Although he defeats Voldemort like in canon, Harry becomes the next dark wizard with extremist ideals (he thinks change can only be achieved through force) and a concerning lack of ethics (he experiments with Necromancy and soul magic). The reason is that on top of suffering lots of trauma during his life, having the Horcrux in him so violently removed has left a mark on Harry's soul -- he's (emotionally) incomplete. He's therefore DrivenToSuicide but, alas, he already died, so Death won't embrace him. Moreover, the narrative proves Harry's radical ideas right: Hermione's efforts to change the wizarding society through lawful means (she's the new Minister of Magic) are ineffectual and challenged in every turn.

* HistoryRepeats: This is the fanfic's entire premise. On top of Harry and Tom's already similar backgrounds, they both lost a piece of their souls at some point, which leads them to a path of insanity and radicalized beliefs of violence being the only way to achieve societal change. They both also travel the world during a good chunk of their adulthoods to the point of everyone doubting their existence and then return as powerful, dark wizards who start a genocide for personal gain and the purpose of "improving" wizarding Britain. Oh, and neither of them can just die like normal people, both having attained some sort of immortality.
