This fanfic provides examples of:

• Adaptational Badass:
  • In 00 canon, the Haros are harmless adorable Robot Buddies in Celestial Being. Here, they are pilots of the Earth Coalition Drones to compensate for the dwindling amount of human pilots in the losing war against the Glorft despite they lack GN weaponry themselves. When they arrive from the future, the Haros piloting the Drones were able to devastate most of A-Laws reinforcements that were supposed to back up Kati Mannequin's task force but then were forced to flee due to numbers and GN weaponry.
  • In 00 canon, Katharon was pitifully outgunned and outmatched by the A-Laws' advanced GN mobile suits due to using outdated machines of the Union, Human Reform League and the AEU. Here, Katharon is able to hold their ground against A-Laws thanks to their mobile suits being jury rigged with GN Tau Drives and modified. Courtesy from David Halevy who goes by the alias of Blex Forer with the codename of Goliath-13 as a spy from Celestial Being.
  • In 00 canon, Louise Halevy was a mediocre pilot who has panic attacks at a sight of a Gundam and unstable GN T Particle poisoning condition which was compensated with drugs that turn her into a pseudo-Innovade and the piloting of Regnant. Here, she is a full fledged Gundam Meister of Megas with official training from her mentor Tieria Erde and knowledge of video games and wrestling to apply to mobile suit combat.
• Adaptational Heroism: Louise Halevy is a member of Celestial Being when her uncle David Halevy took her to them for healing, avoiding her canon fate of being turned into a pawn by Ribbons Almark. She becomes a Gundam Meister of Gundam Megas under the codename of Sayla Mass.
• Alas, Poor Villain: Barack Zinin may have been a member of the tyrannical A-Laws but he was a broken man who lost his wife Caroline to an act of terrorism by Katharon. When Louise kills him, his last thoughts was about his wife before his demise.
• Ascended Extra: Chall Acustica, Eco Calore, Sherilyn Hyde and Hanayo from Gundam 00F take active role in Celestial Being than remain in the sidelines.
• Battle Cry: Just like her ancestor Coop, Louise shouts out, "WAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGHHHHHH!!!"
• Be Careful What You Wish For: Patrick Colosaur pleaded for anyone to save him after his GN-XIII unit got punched away by Lyle Dylandy/Lockon Stratos II's Cherudim Gundam. He ended up being a "guest" of Warmaster Gorrath when his Karajor capital ship appeared.
• BFG: The GN Large Beam Cannon of Gundam Megas is this as it was based from the schematics of GN Bazooka used by Gundam Virtue. It was powerful enough to wipe out scores of A-Laws mobile suits and ships in its path.
• Borrowed Catchphrase: Louise uses the Pre-Asskicking One-Liner of Lockon Stratos, "Targeted and Firing!" when firing Gundam Megas' GN Large Beam Cannon to fire a massive beam attack on Revive Revival.
• Calling Your Attacks: Louise does this when unleashing some of Gundam Megas' weaponry such as the Rocket Punch and the High Mega Cannon.
• Commanding Coolness: Chall Acustica is the Commander of Celestial Being who took active part of rebuilding and reorganizing the paramilitary organization back on its feet post-Operation Fallen Angels.
• Crossover Relatives:
  • Coop/Harold Cooplowski is the ancestor of Louise Halevy. According to Word of God, because Megas wasn't sent to 2004, he lived a relatively normal life and met Brigitte Halevy.
  • Feldt Grace is one of the descendants of Ally, the redhead woman who was targeted by Gorrath in attempt to erase Kiva Andru from existence. Word of God states that due the events of Megas XLR never happening, Ally lived a normal life. On the other hand, Feldt had unlocked Megas' DNA Lock of the Black Box Internal Security Grid made by Kiva as a security measure.
• Death by Adaptation:
  • Fon Spaak succumbed to his wounds from Explosive Leash and GN T Particle poisoning. He was given a small funeral with his coffin ejected into space, followed by gun salute.
  • In 00 canon, Barack Zinin fell by Setsuna F. Seiei's hand when the 00 Raiser Gundam outmaneuvered his Ahead unit before swiftly cutting him down. Here, he dies to Louise Halevy when she fired Gundam Megas' High Mega Cannon, vaporizing his Ahead.
• Didn't See That Coming: The appearance of Gundam Megas took the A-Laws and Ribbons and his Innovades by surprise. Even Wang Liu Mei was caught flat footed, as Megas was kept a secret from her by Celestial Being, when Ribbons demanded if she knew about it.
• Double Agent: David Halevy is this as Goliath-13 in Katharon where he kept an eye on the rebel organization while providing them means to fight back against A-Laws. That is wher David learned about Lyle Dylandy, a member of Katharon as Jean-1 and recommended his recruitment as a candidate for Cherudim Gundam to Commander Chall Acustica. All while lampshading in amusment that Lyle would try doing this to Celestial Being whilst unaware about him.
• Dramatic Irony:
  • Chall and her Celestial Being comrades assume that the original pilot of Megas was vaporized when the head cockpit exploded. In truth, Kiva almost died had she gotten inside Megas' original head cockpit that the Glorft launched missiles at it. The explosion reeled Kiva back to her CMDR-KA's head cockpit, saving her life.
  • Louise kills Barack Zinin and made an enemy out of Andrei Smirnov when she battles the A-Laws forces. In 00 canon, she was Barack's subordinate and a target of Andrei's projections.
• The Dreaded: Gundam Megas quickly becomes this to the A-Laws after it had easily bulldozed through their forces like The Juggernaut.
• Dropped a Bridge on Him: Fon Spaak suffers this as he had eventually succumbed to GN T Particle poisoning and the wounds from the Explosive Leash triggered by Veda during his past encounter with Team Trinity. His death was an example that GN T Particle poisoning is not to be taken lightly.
• Entertainingly Wrong:
  • Ribbons and the A-Laws believe that Celestial Being had salvaged the destroyed Alvatore and transformed its remains into a Gundam-Type Mobile Armor, using it against them.
  • On the other hand, Kati Mannequin wonder if the pilot of Gundam Megas is a psychopathic Womanchild who sees combat as a game to her.
• Hypocrite: Discussed as Sherilyn Hyde believe this when being privy to David Halevy providing GN technology albeit improvised and modified to Katharon as a spy, stating that Celestial Being's purpose is to end war, not perpetrate it. David simply tells her to not sweat the small stuff and he just wanted to give Katharon a little edge to hold out before Celestial Being's official return.
• I Know Mortal Kombat: Louise is good at playing video games with her uncle and applied it as a pilot during her Gundam Meister training.
• It Runs in the Family:
  • Uptown girls meeting backstreet guys and motivating them to be better occasionally runs in the family of Louise as her ancestor Coop met and fell in love with Brigitte Halevy, which he cleaned up his act, turned into a Self-Made Man and moved to Spain with her.
  • On the other hand, David shares his ancestor Coop's passion for giant robots.
  • Like her ancestor Coop, Louise is a Screaming Warrior when piloting Gundam Megas.
• Original Character:
  • David Halevy, he is the uncle of Louise and a member of Celestial Being's mobile suit research and development. Originally part of the AEU, he resigned after they refused to accept his designs and he called the Enact "a cheap knockoff of the Flag". He narrowly avoided the wedding massacre by Nena Trinity when he was working at Krung Thep, and he got to Louise for treatment in Celestial Being before Ribbons got his hands on her.
  • Dr. Yuri Minovsky, he is the chief scientist in Celestial Being as an expert of GN Particles. He took part of the modification and development of Megas into a Gundam-Type with Ian Vashti and David Halevy where he helped attach the GN Tau Drive with Megas' nuclear-powered source and reduced the GN T Particles' toxicity as minimum as possible.
• Parting-Words Regret: Non-lethal version as Louise felt ashamed of her spiteful cruel words towards David Halevy when she found out her uncle was a member of Celestial Being. At the time, she blamed them for the loss of her family as Team Trinity were accepted into the organization by the Observers. Even though David had let bygones be bygones with his niece, she still couldn't forgive herself.
• Refused by the Call: When Feldt unwittingly unlocked Megas' DNA lock, her aunt figure Commander Chall refused to let her undergo Gundam Meister training and become a pilot of Megas. Chall stated Feldt is still needed as temporary captain of the Ptolemaois II (until Sumeragi Lee Noriega returns from her self-imposed exile) and explain the importance of being part of a support team aiding the Gundam Meisters. Albeit she did this out of concern, not wanting Feldt to end up like her parents, Ruido Resonance and Marlene Vlady who were previous Gundam Meisters. Instead, Louise was chosen to be the new Gundam Meister of Megas.
• Robot Buddy: Louise has Red Haro as her companion and partner when piloting Gundam Megas. Interestingly, the Red Haro was this to Saji Crossroad in 00 canon, and in this story, he has Blue Haro instead. He later gave Blue Haro to assist Feldt Grace to pilot the 0 Raiser and link it with Setsuna F. Seiei's 00 Gundam.
• Screaming Warrior: Louise is this as a pilot of Gundam Megas that got the attention of Celestial Being and A-Laws, which Tieria lampshades about her lungs. Not only her Battle Cry had reached across space, it even breached through the quantum spiritual plane that Setsuna and Feldt were in there due to 00 Raiser's Trans-Am.
• Super Prototype: Originally a Glorft mech that was modified by Kiva, Celestial Being converted Megas into a Gundam-Type machine.
• Surprisingly Sudden Death: Louise inflicts this to Revive Revival with Gundam Megas' GN Large Beam Cannon right after he fired his GN Mega Launcher at the Ptolemaios II, surprising everyone in the battlefield of the new Gundam's appearance. On the other hand, Revive Revival would later return with a new Innovade body... but he can no longer trigger the sleeper agent within Anew Returner as both of them were made and artificially grown together.
• Shout-Out:
  • From Mobile Suit Gundam:
    • Louise's codename is a nod to Sayla Mass (who did pilot the RX-78-2 Gundam one time). She has Sayla's hairstyle as well.
    • Dr. Yuri Minovsky shares the surname of Torenov Y. Minovsky, the man behind the Minovsky Physics.
  • From Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam:
    • Gundam Megas is a nod to the Pyscho Gundam, a gigantic transformable mobile suit and it's piloted by a female pilot.
    • David's Secret Identity as Blex Forer is a nod to the founder and first leader of the AEUG.
  • David Halevy is named after David DeLuise, the voice actor of Coop from Megas XLR.
  • When Lyle internally noted about "Experience outranks everything.", it's a nod to Star Wars: The Clone Wars.
• This Cannot Be!: Colonel Kati Mannequin does this internally when she watches the new Gundam-Type machine easily destroying the A-Laws forces under her command in spite of numbers and her tactics.
• Villainous Legacy: Even after four years, it appears that the Alvatore, the Mobile Armor of Alejandro Corner is this as when Gundam Megas fired a massive beam attack that took out Revive Revival, the A-Laws panicked and realized Celestial Being had salvaged the Mobile Armor and made the Gundam-Type machine.
  • On the other hand, Gundam Megas received one of Alvatore's GN Tau Drives to be attached to its thermonuclear power source as its stabilizer.
• Where Were You Last Night?: Lyle Dylandy questions why Celestial Being didn't deploy Gundam Megas in the first place after learning about it. Tieria explains to him that the Gundam-Type machine was their last resort and they shouldn't put all their cards on the table.
• Wrestler in All of Us: Louise's fighting style is this, which is considered as unorthodox in Celestial Being. Her mentor, Tieria Erde, picked up on it and used it against Bring Stabity during the Brawler Lock between Seravee and Bring's Garazzo.
