* EvilCannotComprehendGood: As Sawdust, Picturesque and Sheaf mend fences, the Whisper rants that they shouldn't be able to overcome their issues. They're ponies, they break like glass. And yet, no-one's breaking.
* FakeUltimateHero: The people of Oaton worship Trixie because they think a year ago she saved them from the Lumber Guild. As it turns out, all Trixie did was get drunk, harass Sawdust, cause some Fire Drakes to get lose and made a nuisance of herself. Tarnished was the one who did the work.
* AFatherToHisMen: Sawdust does whatever he can to protect the Lumber Guild ponies. When he set Sawblade up to take the fall, he made sure as few of them got arrested, even though several of them had to know what Sawblade had been up to.



* IdiotBall: Sawdust makes the classic mistake of writing down his plotting and scheming in full view in his journal, which Trixie gets access to.
* {{Jerkass}}: Sawblade set up the Lumber Guild's dam operation at Oaton solely to spite Picturesque, though he claims it's just a coincidence that it happens to endanger the town his daughter's moved to.
* LaserGuidedAmnesia: Sawdust erased some of Bushel's memories from the first incident. Cheerilee is incensed at this.
* NoNameGiven: While the story never directly says it's Tirek responsible for the shrine, later stories confirm that, yeah, it's Tirek's handiwork alright.



* SayingTooMuch: Cut'n'Dry, speaking up on Raindrops' behalf, makes more than a few accidental comments about her figure.
* SequelHook: By the author's own admission, Tendaji's presence is basically just to set up future stories. He doesn't reappear until ''Contest of Champions'', which just happens to also be written by thatguyvex



* TakingTheBullet: Bushel leaps in the way of a lightning bolt Tarnished casts at Trixie. Fortunately, it's mostly magic, so she's not fried. Unfortunately, it's mostly magic, so her inverted horn absorbs it.



* YouMakeMeSic: There are a number of spelling, punctuation and grammar errors throughout the fic.

to:

* WeUsedToBeFriends: Sawdust and Sheaf met in college. Then Sheaf got Sawdust's sister preggers, avoiding Sawdust's notice via spells he'd taught Sheaf.
* {{Yandere}}: At first, this seems to be the case with Tarnished, her crush on Cheerilee being amplified by dark magic into full blown psycho rage. The truth is different.
* YouMakeMeSic: There are a number of spelling, punctuation and grammar errors throughout the fic.fic.
* YouNoTakeCandle: The basilisk, when Trixie manages to understand its thoughts.
