* AllOfThem: When Thel learns that the Flood are swarming the ''Truth and Reconciliation'' in massive numbers, no doubt to capture and repair the ship, he orders a Special Operations task force to be dispatched. When the officer on hand points out the chaos throughout the Covenant armada and battlenet will make prepping such a team cost far too much time they can't afford in order to aid the troops on the ground, Thel agrees and orders for ''all'' the remaining Converted/Husks still present among the fleet to be launched down to the ship immediately in drop pods to push back the Flood while the team is being prepared.

* ThatsAnOrder: Colonel Holland invokes this on Major Silva when the latter refuses to partake in the alliance with the Kig-Yar and the Batarians. [[spoiler:Much to Holland's fury, it doesn't work and instead prompts Silva into staging a mutiny.]]

* AdaptationalVillainy: At first, Major Silva isn't any worse than he was in ''Literature/HaloTheFlood'', but [[ForWantOfANail after all the time he spends butting heads with Shepard and his team]] [[spoiler: he's driven to mutiny when Colonel Holland orders him to abandon the ''Truth and Reconciliation,'' refusing to [[EnemyMine join forces with Kig-Yar and Batarian Deserters]].]]

* {{Big Damn Heroes}}: Major Silva unleashed a rocket barrage that wiped out a large amount of the Covenant forces guarding the Pillar of Autumn. Actually lampshaded by [[ActorAllusion Buck]].

* DefiantToTheEnd: Lat 'Ravamee, Shipmaster of the ''Truth and Reconciliation,'' only gets angrier the further the humans get into his ship and desecrate it with his crew's blood. Even when he's alone on the bridge, he charges headlong at Master Chief with his Energy Sword and tries to keep attacking him even when the Spartan has shoved an assault rifle into his mouth.

* FantasticRacism: Considerably less present than in Fanfic/WhenThereWasATomorrow, as the Normandy crew has proved themselves in the eyes of most of the people on the ''Autumn.'' Someone even put up posters across the ship with the alien crew's mugshots saying "Don't shoot these." Major Silva, however, still clearly doesn't care for them.

* NoJustNoReaction: Zek opens the door to the cryo area of the ''Pillar Of Autumn.'' Inside is a miniature war between dozens of Flood combat forms and Sentinels. Zek ''immediately'' closes the door with a resounding "Nope."

* OminousForeshadowing: Just prior to events on the Truth and Reconciliation, Varvok begins hearing reports from his unnerved sergeant about Covenant excavation teams going missing and inexplicable communications blackouts. Later, when Varvok is allowed to go to the excavation sites to retrieve his men, all the Covenant present are on-edge and constantly looking over their shoulders like they're expecting something to attack them, and then the Elite Major gets a call that someone escaped quarantine and everyone rushes off to deal with it with him ordering-almost-warning Varvok and Zek to leave immediately.
