Line 38:
* [[Healing Factor]]
* [[Hikikomori]]: Theresa Aranow
* [[Hoist By Their Own Petard]]: the most basic principle of Sanctuary's philosophy is that the smaller, smarter community has no obligation to serve the larger, dumber one. To prevent her community of Sleepless from falling under the domination of [[Muggles|Sleepers]], she commissions the Superbrights—aSuperbrights--a smaller, smarter community serving her larger, dumber one.
** And then it happens again the third book, and it's even messier.
* [[Hot for Teacher]]: Drew Arlen for Leisha, who is an odd combination of adoptive mother, teacher and best friend.
Line 81:
* [[Theme Twin Naming]]: Leisha and Alice are both variations on the name 'Alicia'. The novel never mentions whether this was intentional on the part of any characters.
* [[Twenty Minutes Into the Future]]
* [[Undead Tax Exemption]]: averted. Sanctuary Orbital—yesOrbital--yes, the space station—isstation--is the property of a corporation licensed in New York State, and thus subject to the IRS. Tax ratios start at 64.8% and, by the end of the book, have reached a staggering ''92%''.
* [[The Unfavourite]]: Alice.
* [[Uptight Loves Wild]]: Jackson Aranow and Cazie Sanders.
