* InspirationForTheWork: The series [[https://vaveyard.tumblr.com/post/142635080905/how-and-why-did-you-base-rq-on-the-red-queen drew inspiration]] and its name from the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Queen_hypothesis Red Queen hypothesis]], an evolutionary theory that states a species must constantly "adapt, evolve, and proliferate" in order to survive against other species' that likewise are constantly changing. This hypothesis is the same one used in-universe to explain the appearance of newbloods: Reds had to develop superpowers of their own if they were ever going to continue surviving under the ruthless rule of Silvers.
