** Natzo has also made a diagram for Chapter 22 to explain the timeline and explain a crucial part of the story's events. [[spoiler:[The diagram explains that the two Lucinas (one called Nasty!Lucina and Nice!Lucina from Natzo)along with their group had actually SWITCHED timelines when F!Robin tried to protect them from F!Grima when she tried to stop them. The Lucina in Robin's timeline is not only Nice!Lucina but is actually Rose's future daughter she had with Chrom with Morgan and Marc as her twin siblings. Meanwhile, Nasty!Lucina is from Future Robin's timeline and went to the wrong time much the same way. This is why the events of the first chapter happens and why Rose was automatically suspect no. 1 because she never existed in her timeline.]]

* AdaptationalKarma: A bit downplayed, in that he did eventually die in the original story, but Validar's fate in Shattered Reflection tends to be seen as ''much'' more [[CatharsisFactor satisfying.]]

** Happens again after Emmeryn's wedding when Chrom (and Robin and Gaius) blunder into Rose's room to find her stark naked. [[spoiler:Along with Phila.]] The three are lucky to make it out alive.



* BedmateReveal: After Emmeryn's wedding, [[spoiler:Rose and Phila]] wake up naked together in bed. [[OhCrap Their reaction is priceless.]]



* BreatherEpisode: Chapter 16, appropriately titled "Downtime." In terms of being a break from the dramatic action for the audience, and a moment of peace and calm for the protagonists. After the end of the Plegian War, the triumphant heroes finally get a chance to recover emotionally from all that's happened. After everything they've gone through, it's quite refreshing that the biggest problem they end up having to face is 'how will I get a date for the victory ball?!'
