* {{Deconstruction}}: of a very small, but significant, part of Familiar of Zero fanfictions. Most of them simply take the selected "Familiar" away from his home with nary a by-your-leave. This story shows that there are ''consequences'' to that, ranging from the Little Sisters starting to freak out that their "Daddy" isn't there, to the entire city of Rapture on the verge of total anarchy (since the king, who nearly single-handedly ended the war and took control of the place, was taken away at a very delicate portion of the city's reconstruction). Louise's horror at taking away someone from his family, a thing she hadn't even considered, is palpable.

''[[http://forums.spacebattles.com/showthread.php?t=179098 Zero's Shock]]'' is a crossover between ''VideoGame/BioShock'' and ''LightNovel/TheFamiliarOfZero'' written by the same author who is giving us ''Fanfic/ToyHammer''. Simply put; Jack becomes the Familiar of Zero. While the fic is still in its infancy it has a promising start, with Jack and Louise both having a lot of character depth for a SilentProtagonist - a trait that is somewhat retained - and being spot on with canon (barring the domestic abuse - Jack doesn't give her a chance for that), which has earned this fic praise from the reviewers on [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6556173/1/Zeros_Shock fanfiction.net]].

* DomesticAbuse: Averted. Louise is more logical and subdued than in the original series because unlike [[LightNovel/TheFamiliarOfZero a certain 16-year-old highschool boy/nerd/otaku]], Jack doesn't make cracks about her bust size or otherwise jump up and down on her {{Berserk Button}}s every five minutes.

Sadly, the story is now a DeadFic as the last update was April 2013 and the author is doing fanfics.

Added DiffLines:

** It also shows that, contrary to other stories where the Familiar's home is hinted at, but not actually shown, Jack's friends and co-workers are actively shown experimenting so they can copy the teleport he used to get him back home.

* [[RaisedByWolves Raised In Rapture]]: Jack doesn't understand the concept of "dueling", and attempts to brain Guiche with a wrench as soon as the challenge has been made.
** He also thinks that alcohol is to be drunk by chugging down all of it straight from the bottle. He's puzzled when Siesta tells him that that's not how he's supposed to do it.
*** Which becomes even funnier when you go back a few paragraphs and read about the "[[EroticEating other method]]" that [[CovertPervert she has been thinking of]].
