* ForgottenFallenFriend: Zig-zagged. [[spoiler: Pyro]] is mentioned quite frequently by Pickpocket after he dies, despite only being in the first book for a short period of time, and other Lost Boys who have perished sometimes get mentioned, but other characters like [[spoiler: Bella, Joanna, and Mikey]] die without so much as a mention afterwards from anyone.
* GenderFlip: Joanna is the counterpart of John in Peter Pan, the gender flip in this case being necessary due to the fact that the way the virus works wouldn't make the plot work if the character remained male.

* IgnoredEpiphany: Katt reflects on her actions, especially accidentally killing [[spoiler: Gabs]] and realizing she's become a monster, but at the end of thinking it over she decides she's too far gone and her actions were all worth it to get what she wants.
* RocksFallEveryoneDies: Essentially what ''Ozland'' feels like after [[spoiler: 95% of the main characters are massacred by Katt, including almost all of the Lost Boys and all the residents of Evergreen.]]
** There is also a big to-do in the second book about keeping the Queen of England alive, who is so sick she remains in a coma the entire book, since she is the rightful ruler and the only one who can really run England instead of letting the despot Kat ruler. It's revealed very casually in the third book that she was too sick for the cure to work on her and she dies in her sleep shortly after the gang arrives in Germany, rendering everything Pete and the others did to keep her alive all for nothing.

* DecompositeCharacter: Bella tends to be a straight-up analogy to Tinkerbell most of the time but Jack takes on her usual role of being the character that willingly leads Hook to the hideout of the Lost Boys.
** In a more meta sense, Captain Hook is usually portrayed by the same actor that plays George Darling, to signify that the children are playing make-believe and using the familiar to represent their fantasies. In the books, they're two separate characters, with Hook being a young teenager and George being a colonel in Her Majesty's royal army.

* HeadbuttingHeroes: This sums up Pete and Doc's relationship. Pete holds a grudge against Doc for failing to prevent his sister's passing from the Horologia virus and the two prefer to stay away from each other during their time in the Lost City. Their scorn for each other only escalates after Doc's supposed "cure" for the virus mutates, leaving nearly all of their allies, particularly Bella, in an even worse state than before, which Pete holds Doc responsible for. Their contempt escalates into physical spats between the two at times.
