A number of prominent witches and demons begin to question the wisdom of the Day of Unity and how much of a paradise it would actually be after meeting Luz and hearing about the kind of threats Earth has to deal with on a regular basis.

* TheCorruption: Strange warns Amity that taking Grom's power into herself could cause this effect on her, as power like that wants to be used. [[spoiler: Chapter 21 shows that this isn't an idle warning...]]



* HeroOfAnotherStory: Comes up more than a few times. Several of Earth's superheroes are noted to be absent at times due to dealing with other crises that came up. Doctor Strange in particular has a tendency to note several other crises he's had to deal with, which each double as a ShoutOut to a different fictional work.

** [[spoiler: While powerful, the Owl Beast was unable to do anything to the Collector in canon. Here, her entire species was explicitly capable of hurting the Archivists, causing them to switch from archiving the species to exterminating them outright]].



** It's implied that Grometheus, or at least similar beings, were used by the Archivists against the Titans, given the carvings on the wall of its prison.

* SpottingTheThread: [[spoiler:Luz, Amity and Camila all realize that the ''Good Witch Azura'' books might be more than they seem when they realize that the books don't have any mention of any author or barcodes, nor do they have any memory of ''how'' they procure them outside of some vague memories of buying them at a bookstore. Doctor Strange confirms their suspicions when he looks at the context of the books and notices mention of Kamar-Taj, Vishanti and the Sorcerer Supreme in them, among other things.]]

New chapter!

Added DiffLines:

* AbsenceOfEvidence: Despite poring through the books in the library of Kamar Taj, Strange is unable to find any references to the Demon Realm, and that plus the barrier makes him think that someone or something is deliberately trying to hide the realm's existence from anyone else, or at least Earth.


Added DiffLines:

* BrainBleach: Part of why it took Amity so long to learn to astral project is because an early attempt accidentally sent her into Edric's room, where she witnessed her brother posing in his underwear.


Added DiffLines:

* NotEvilJustMisunderstood: [[spoiler:The Owl Beast turns out to have been trying to protect Eda whenever she emerged, and the magic draining is merely a side effect of their fusion.]]

** [[spoiler: The Owl Beast displays the ability to speak fluently when Luz, Amity, and Eda are able to speak to it inside the mind of the latter, something it never did in canon]].



* GodGuise: [[spoiler:The voice that communes with both Belos and the Titan Trappers claims to be the Boiling Isles Titan himself, but there's enough evidence in the story to indicate that it's lying. Besides the fact that it needs both groups to find the Birthing tower of the last Titan child instead of just telling them where it is, there's also the battles with Ingrimaxus; Belos explicitly notes that the magic gifted to him by the Titan was outright useless against the dragon last time it showed up, and it's why he doesn't even bother fighting against it himself when it returns in the present day. When Luz uses her own Titan Glyph magic against it, however, the magic proves to be ''extremely'' effective in halting the dragon in its tracks, and a Fire Glyph drawn on Ingrimaxus' head is what ultimately kills the beast for good. While the entity's identity is currently unknown, it's all but certain that it is ''not'' the Boiling Isles Titan.]]

* AlphaBitch: On her first day at Gravesfield High, Vee has the displeasure of meeting head cheerleader Chasity Masterson, who quickly takes a disliking to her for not meeting her qualifications for being "normal". According to Masha, her attitude mostly stems from how her family has been coasting by on the wealth from a factory they used to own a hundred years ago.

Vee is actually surprised to learn that Luz and Masha aren't held in higher regard at the school than her due to being legitimate superheroes.



* ContrivedCoincidence: Lampshaded by Vee when she meets Masha and upon learning of their powers, realizes that they're likely the unknown hero who arrives in the Demon Realm with her and Camilla according to Luz's Oracle vision. She questions what the odds of that happening are, then realizes that with everything that's happened since Luz came to the Boiling Isles, it's actually pretty likely.

* SureLetsGoWithThat:
** When Belos comes to the conclusion that Luz is actually the biological half-human and half-witch daughter of Eda to explain where her powers come from, Lilith, despite knowing this isn't even remotely accurate, decides to play along with his assumption, to keep the Emperor in the dark about just how capable the Human Realm really is.
** [[spoiler: After Amity destroys Grom for good, she's prepared to explain that she learned the magic to do so from Doctor Strange in the Human Realm. However, Principal Bump pre-empts her by saying she must have [[PlausibleDeniability learned it from Eda]], and after some additional hinting from both Bump and Willow to avoid having to get the Emperor's Coven involved, Amity just rolls with the claim]].

* AdaptationalIntelligence: Downplayed. While Luz was far from unintelligent in canon, she could be somewhat naïve, headstrong, and willing to jump into situations without thinking. While she retains shades of such characterization in this story, Luz repeatedly surprises a number of characters for being wiser than they expect, and is much more willing to acknowledge her own limitations and think things through as opposed to just blindly rushing into situations. One prominent example is when she chooses to simply sign up for two magic courses in Hexside as opposed to all of them like she did in canon, acknowledging that while she would like to study as much magic as possible, it would be better to limit her focus to avoid overtaxing herself with schoolwork. The arrival of Ingrimaxus only highlights the difference; while in canon, Luz would almost certainly throw herself into the fray with the eager intent of fighting a dragon, in this story, she acknowledges that she would be out of her depth by blindly taking on Ingrimaxus without a plan and initially intends to simply focus on protecting and rescuing civilians, before being stopped from doing so by Eda locking down the house. She only fights Ingrimaxus directly because Lilith specifically asked for her help in doing so, following her plan to the letter once it's explained.

* AdaptationalRelationshipOverhaul: Canonically, Lilith and Hunter are never even shown interacting onscreen, and she speaks negatively of their offscreen time in the Emperor's Coven together. Here, she takes on a mentorship role to him within the Coven.

** Odalia is a downplayed version of this. She is much more accepting of Amity's friendship with Luz and even encourages Amity to learn new magic outside the bounds of the Coven system. However, her motivations are still selfish in nature, with her being accepting of Luz primarily because of her connections with Earth's superheroes and figuring out ways that connection could benefit her.

** On Amity's end, Emira and Edric both encourage Amity to give Luz the note she made asking Luz to be her Grom date. And in a reversal from canon, when Odalia learns about Amity's crush on Luz, even ''she'' encourages her daughter to get together with Luz.

** Downplayed, but Luz and Amity start dating each other much earlier than in canon, where they got together in season 2. In this story, the confidence from their adventures plus direct encouragement from their friends and families causes them to officially become girlfriends during Grom.

* VillainousBreakdown: [[spoiler: When Amity first meets Grom, it's mocking and sadistic, eager to break her as it has done to many witches before. Once Amity displays magic it's never seen before and proves herself capable of hurting and killing it, the creature's confidence quickly shatters and soon it starts desperately trying to flee as Amity binds its power to herself before burning what's left of it to ash]].
