* FogotAboutHisPowers: When the trio rush to help Kevin against a bunch of thugs, they fail to consider using any of their respective powers to make things easier. Afterwards, they note Ben could have transformed before entering the alleyway, and Nanoha and Fate could have used a few subtle bindings to trip up the thugs.

* WHatTheHellHero: Nanoha isn't afraid to call out Ben whenever he does something insensitive or stupid, whether it be insulting Fate, or trying to sneak in to a restricted room at the hotel they're staying in. To his credit, he acknowledges when he goes to far, and generally listens.

* {{Foil}}: Ben and Nanoha are both brown haired children (and cousins) who, through extraordinary circumstances, came to possess devices that gave them incredible powers. However, Nanoha's Raising Heart mainly allowed her to use her own innate abilities, she had [[TheMentor Yuuno]] to teach her how to use them, and required almost no convincing [[ComesGreatResponsibility to focus on collecting Jewel Seeds, only using them for that purpose]], showing [[WiseBeyondTheirYears great wisdom for her age]]. Meanwhile, Ben's powers come ''entirely'' from the Omnitrix, [[HowDOIShootWeb struggles to learn how to use both the device and the forms it grants him through trial and error]], and has to be stopped from [[WithGreatPowerComesGreatPerks using them for his own (admittedly minor) gain]], lacking the level of maturity his cousin has, [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold despite being a good kid at heart]].

Added DiffLines:

* NoodleIncident: Kevin's feud with the thugs harassing him for [[FantasticRacism being a 'freak']] has been an escalating prank war on his end for a while, leading up to one standout example. The incident involved [[NoodleImplements a bucket of whipped cream, a bag of feathers, a jar of termites, another jar of bees and four whoopee cushions]] which ''somehow'' led to a garbage truck crashing into the mayors office ''roof'', and apparently triggered "a gang war between cockroaches and termites".

** Kevin is significantly better adjusted mentally, being genuinely friendly towards Ben, Nanoha, and Fate, and showing them around the arcade, as well as his personal hideout. What's more, he never tries to rope them into anything illegal actions, and lacks the near sociopathic disregard for life his canon self initially did, [[spoiler:only killing [[AssholeVictim the thugs who repeatedly beat him up and called him 'freak']], and only ''after'' their latest attempt involved trying to beat him to death. The fact that he just suffered from a sudden mutation probably didn't help matters]].

[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13533936/1/Aliens-and-Magic Aliens and Magic]] is a crossover fanfic by [[https://www.fanfiction.net/u/6429435/Rougedragon Rougedragon]] that features [[WesternAnimation/Ben10 Ben Tennyson]] going on the fateful summer vacation with his grandfather Max, and rather than Gwen, is accompanied by a cousin from his grandmothers side of the family, [[Franchise/LyricalNanoha Nanoha, and her friend Fate]].

!!Aliens and Magic provides examples of:
* AdaptationalBadass: Animo's mutation ray is powered by a Jewel Seed, and grants additional powers to the animals it creates, even making the resurrected mammoth form wreathed in flames.
* AdaptationalNiceGuy:
** Ben's initial [[{{Jerkass}} bratty tendencies]] are toned down, likely owing to Nanoha being notably friendlier than Gwen.
** Kevin is significantly better adjusted mentally, being genuinely friendly towards Ben, Nanoha, and Fate, and showing them around the arcade, as well as his personal hideout. What's more, he never tries to rope them into anything illegal actions, and lacks the near sociopathic disregard for life his canon self initially did, [[spoiler:only killing [[AssholeVictim the thugs who repeatedly beat him up and called him 'freak']], and only ''after'' their latest attempt involved trying to beat him to death. The fact that he just suffered from a sudden mutation probably didn't help matters]].
* AntiMagic: Vilgax's drones are equipped with this, preventing Nanoha and Fate from simply blasting them to pieces.
* CrossoverRelatives: Nanoha is related to the Tennysons, referring to Max as 'Gruncle'.
* HiddenDepths: Nanoha is an avid fan of Mecha games, managing to school both Ben and Fate in an arcade match. Only Kevin, who spends most of his time at the arcade, manages to beat her, and only barely.
* InSpiteOfANail: Fate is the one who saves the store from one of Animo's mutants, and requests Ben be given the golden Sumo Slammer card. Feeling that she deserved a reward more than he did, Max still gives his 'being a hero is it's own reward' aesop.
* OffscreenMomentOfAwesome: Apparently the Wolkenritter and Vilgax have clashed several times in the past.
