Added DiffLines:

* Chapter 6 includes a reading of Theatre/AMidsummerNightsDream.
* Chapter 12:
-->“Where am I sleeping? Down in the Slytherin dorms?”\\
“No, you and Cecy have a guest suite. You’ll be in the dorms when you come to school, but not tonight. It’s near there, though, and she’ll be looking out for you. I assume you can get to the dorms on your own?”\\
“Yes, sir.”\\
“[[Disney/PeterPan Then it’s the second corner to your left and straight on till the end of the hall.]]”\\
Draco got a sense of ‘missed joke’ about this but let it pass. “Thank you, sir. Good night.”
* Chapter 19 has the other world's Harry proposing a performance of ''Theatre/ThePiratesOfPenzance'' to give the kids something to do since they'll be stuck at Hogwarts for the rest of the summer. The idea is received rather well, with parts being picked out on the spot.
** Shortly afterward, the other world's Crabbe and Goyle (Vince and Greg) perform an all-guitar version of [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uzae_SqbmDE the "Dueling Banjos" scene]] from Film/{{Deliverance}}.
* Chapter 26: Draco sings a snippet from Theatre/{{Wicked}} (a bit anachronistic, though it might have come out earlier in the other world) before singing "WithCatlikeTread".
* Chapter 27 features a couple of allusions to Creator/RudyardKipling:
** Literature/JustSoStories:
-->'''Draco''': (thinking) ''I am the [[spoiler:whatever-that-was-the-Manor-showed-me]] that walks by himself, and all places are alike to me.''
** Literature/TheJungleBook:
--> '''Draco''': (thinking) ''“Forget not the night is for hunting, and remember the day is for sleep.”''
** A scriptural allusion:
-->Draco froze, transfixed. Blue-gray was all there was, all there would ever be—he was being weighed, measured, and somehow he sensed that he had not been found entirely wanting—
* Chapter 28 has kind of a meta-example--the "Marriage Law" FandomSpecificPlot is referenced: [[spoiler:in the other world, there is talk of making it illegal for a witch or wizard to marry anyone but a Muggle.]]
* Chapter 29 has the performance, and the inevitable Film/MontyPythonAndTheHolyGrail reference during Neville's ModernMajorGeneral song:
-->'''Neville''': For our audience is patient, but their patience now is gone with it,\\
And they are likely thinking that it’s time that we ‘GET ON WITH IT!’
* Chapter 30 has Comparative Cultures (the other world's version of Muggle Studies) and an ActorAllusion via IdenticalGrandson:
-->'''Gertrude "Danger" Beauvoi''': “Now, we’re going to watch [[Film/MontyPythonAndTheHolyGrail a film that was made before any of you were born]], by [[Creator/MontyPython a comedy team of four Muggles and two wizards]], [[Creator/JohnCleese one of whom]] was a direct descendant of [[Film/HarryPotter our own Sir Nicholas de Mimsy-Porpington--good afternoon, Sir Nicholas!]]”
* Chapter 37 has the other-world kids finding a great deal of humor in Draco [[Series/MontyPythonsFlyingCircus being a member of the Inquisitorial Squad]] during his fifth year.
** Draco apparently gets the idea into Peeves' head: "''Everybody'' expects the Hogwarts Inquisition! Beware the soft cushions! Beware the comfy chair!"
* Chapter 39, immediately after Draco has recruited the Hogwarts house-elves to his cause: [[Film/ReturnOfTheJedi "Short help is better than no help at all."]]
** Terry Boot, who has recent Muggle ancestry, gives Draco an odd look upon overhearing this.
* Chapter 53 has the obligatory pun:
-->''“Of course I'm Sirius--[[Film/{{Airplane}} so stop calling me Shirley!]]”''
* Chapter 54 reveals that the other world's Dobby has a grandson named [[Literature/TheLordOfTheRings Elrond]]. (His granddaughter is Virginia. It makes more sense if one assumes that, as in DV-main, Winky has become both the Weasleys' house-elf and Dobby's wife.)
* Subtle but there in Chapter 56:
-->“He turned me into you.”\\
Hermione blinked at him a few times. “Into me?”\\
[[Film/MontyPythonAndTheHolyGrail “I got better,”]] Ron added sheepishly.
* In Chapter 59, when Hermione supposes (correctly) that Luna's new friend is Draco, Ron scoffs “Yeah, and Pansy Parkinson dates Muggles!” One Dangerverse fan has written RecursiveFanfiction where DV!Pansy and an alternate version of DV!Dudley [[spoiler:(who never went full-on Death Eater)]] not only date, but eventually marry, sneaking off to Gretna Green not unlike BC!Ron and BC!Hermione.
** Considering that in Beauvoi-verse, they ''are'' dating (and Dudley is a Muggle)...
* Chapter 59 has one of the funnier ones:
-->“I didn’t get a chance to read it yet.” Ron flattened one of the sheets and peered at it. “Looks like a list. Let me see if I can find the first piece.” Two sheets later, he made a noise of satisfaction. “Here it is.” Pressing the paper flat, he began to read aloud. “[[EvilOverlordList Being an Evil Overlord seems to be a good career choice…]]”\\
“What?” said Hermione shrilly.\\
Harry snorted with laughter. “Sounds like something Fred and George would’ve written after their career advice session,” he said. “Go on, Ron, this should be good.”\\
Ron found his place and continued. “[[EvilOverlordList It pays well, there are all sorts of perks, and you can set your own hours. However, every Evil Overlord I’ve read about in books… invariably gets overthrown and destroyed in the end.]]”\\
“[[Literature/HarryPotterAndTheDeathlyHallows Wish this was a book,]]” said Harry a bit bleakly.
** Later in the same chapter:
--->A moment later, Harry’s voice echoed out of the lighter. “[[WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons Potter’s Broomspear Café. You kill it, we grill it.]]”
* Chapter 60 begins with a CallBack to [[Literature/HarryPotterAndThePrisonerOfAzkaban Draco being injured by Buckbeak]]--Luna fawns over his injured arm in a similar fashion to Pansy in the earlier instance, and Draco even lampshades it.
* In Chapter 63 (doubles as ActorAllusion):
-->'''Draco''' (in response to attempted Occlumency by Snape): "I fobbed him off with the abbreviated presentation of [[Literature/{{Discworld}} What I Did on My Holidays]], and now he’s sure at least one of us is mad."
-->'''Snape''' (after viewing said memories, in which a girl sings "All I Want for Christmas is You"): "Perhaps I should have checked the expiration date on that bottle. Any drink which makes me hallucinate about [[LoveActually attending concerts with Sibyll Trelawney]] cannot be good for me."
** Later in that same chapter:
---> '''Snape''': ''At the risk of betraying my origins--[[Literature/AliceInWonderland curiouser and curiouser.]]''
** Snape also witnesses, via Draco's memories, a pantomime of Literature/PeterPan with Draco as Captain Hook.
* Chapter 65 has Ron and Hermione (Polyjuiced as Nott and Greengrass) alluding to the events of [[Literature/HarryPotterAndThePhilosophersStone the first book]] to make sure Neville knows who they really are.
* Draco's efforts to get [[spoiler:Astoria Greengrass, his eventual wife in canon]] to tell him her name includes a Literature/{{Rumpelstiltskin}} reference:
-->“Am I allowed to know your name now, or do I have to keep guessing until you get my first-born child?”\\
The other eyebrow joined its friend. “Was that a proposition, Malfoy?”\\
“No, it was a [[LampshadeHanging botched story reference]]. Never mind.”
* Chapter 73, trying to get Hermione out of her bad mood:
-->“STOP IT!” Hermione shrieked, slamming her book shut. Draco yanked his arm back into his lap just in time to avoid it being seen. “What is wrong with you?”\\
“It wasn’t me!” Ray protested as his sister’s glare fell on him. “[[Series/TheFugitive It was the one-armed man!]]”
* In Chapter 86, Draco reveals that he wants to be called [[Franchise/StarWars Luke]], the same as his Animagus form, and not ''just'' because of Luke Skywalker.
* Chapter 90--Draco awakes to find he's not alone:
-->“That’s odd,” he said aloud. “I don’t remember ordering a [[Film/AustinPowers mini-me]].”
* Chapter 91: Draco meets with his world's Hermione:
-->Draco undid the clasp on his robes, sliding them off to reveal a very Muggle pair of jeans and [[Film/YoungFrankenstein a T-shirt emblazoned with the words “There wolf. There castle” and small pictures of these two things, arrows pointing them out.]] “Christmas present,” he explained at Hermione’s incredulous look.
** [[http://www.zazzle.com/there_wolf_tee_shirts-235175367112394754 The author later got tired of people asking where they could get this shirt and created it.]]
* Chapter 92:
-->“[[Series/MontyPythonsFlyingCircus Spam, Spam, Spam, Spam, Spam, Spam, Spam, Spam…]]”\\
“Shut up!” screeched Alecto Carrow, swatting at Peeves with a broomstick without even dis-lodging his Viking helmet. “Shut up!”\\
Cackling through his song, Peeves swooped from side to side of the entrance hall, over the heads of the students who were filing in from the carriages. [[Series/MontyPythonsFlyingCircus “Lovely Spam!” he caroled, off-key as usual. “Wonderful Spam!”]]
* Chapter 94:
-->“Have I told you about the latest misadventures of my problem child?” Snape asked.\\
“No, do enlighten me.” Mischief sparked in her smile. “[[Film/MontyPythonAndTheHolyGrail Has he set all the suits of armor to dancing about on tables?]]”
** Later in the chapter: [[Creator/RudyardKipling "By Oak and Ash and Thorn, I do swear it."]]
* Chapter 96 has the Slytherin House password as "[[Disney/{{Fantasia}} Bald Mountain]]". This is also a time reference, as "Night on Bald Mountain" is about Walpurgisnacht, April 30, which in ''Be Careful'' is the date of the final battle.
* Chapter 97 has Abby's response to Draco waking up [[spoiler:after nearly being beaten to death by his world's seventh-year Slytherins]]:
-->'''Abby''': “[[Film/ETTheExtraTerrestrial He phoned home!]]”
* In chapter 106, [[spoiler: Snape]] quotes ''Literature/TheChroniclesOfNarnia''.
--> [[spoiler:'''Snape''']]: "'[[Literature/TheLastBattle Further up and further in]]'?"\\
[[spoiler:'''Lily''']] (approvingly): "Exactly."
** Later in the same chapter:
--->[[spoiler:Lily]] smirked. “Good. Now, can you say, ‘[[Film/MontyPythonAndTheHolyGrail I don’t want to go on the cart’?]]”
* Chapter 109 has Draco, having arrived in the other world, noticing black overwhelming the orange of the early dawn:
--> '''Draco''': (thinking) ''[[Film/DawnOfTheDead Dawn of the dementors.]]''
* Chapter 110:
-->[[spoiler:'''Cecelia'''']]: [[{{Oklahoma}} Out of my dreams and into your arms I long to fly;]]\\
[[{{Oklahoma}} I will come as evening comes to woo a waiting sky…]]
* And, finally, chapter 111:
** Draco's will leaves Neville the Lestranges' estates:
--->''I understand Hufflepuff girls like blokes with huge… [[Film/MontyPythonAndTheHolyGrail tracts of land.]]''
