At the same time, her mother can feel her daughter's magic awakening, and [[Secret Legacy|decides to reveal the truth when the time is right]].

** {{spoiler|Hayate}} ends up facing down a Mazoku who goes by the name of "Archer", and {{spoiler|Fate}} ends up facing down a Mazoku named "Mokka" during the Red arc of the story. {{spoiler|Hayate}} [[Lampshade Hanging|lampshades]] the situation against her opponent, of course.

** {{spoiler|Lina}}'s cell phone has '''[[Theme Tune Cameo|Get Along]]''' as her ring tone.

* [[A Fate Worse Than Death]]: {{spoiler|Reinforce}} suffers this at the hands of {{spoiler|Levi}}.

* [[Affably Evil]]: Dolphin, Zelas and Xellos, of course. There are times it's easy to forget that they are, in fact, creatures of pure evil. Then they go and randomly kill or curse people for [[For the Evulz|no real reason.]]

* [[Aliens Made Them Do It]]: Xellos and [[Ms. Fanservice|Rangort]], after being in a [[Intoxication Ensues|haze]] after eating chocolate filled with who knows what... for at least a month.

* [[An Arm and A Leg|An Eye and a Hand]]: The price {{spoiler|Signum}} paid for attempting to knock out {{spoiler|Cinque}} instead of trying something dangerous. Later mentioned that {{spoiler|Cinque}} was barely able to hold her rage in check and was thankful that {{spoiler|Signum}} didn't try to attack her.

** {{spoiler|[[Handicapped Badass]]: Laevatein's original body was retrofitted into a cybernetic hand for Signum. Due to the newness of the hand, she was advised to only use Laevantein's blade form as anything more might have broken the new hand. Her depth perception is also hindered by the lack of an eye.}}

* [[Arc Welding]]: Original villain Death Bringer Garoth didn't just begin to play his hand during the events of A's. He was also responsible for the catastrophic failure of Precia's experiment and the corruption of the Book of Darkness.

Line 50:

* [[Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking]]: Mazoku Lord Lucefer commented Lindy he created a plague that wiped out most of Europe a few hundred years ago, convinced Stalin that communism was lame, and [[What Do You Mean It's Not Heinous?|convinced Justin Beiber that he could sing]].

* [[Artificial Limbs]]: After losing an eye and a hand to {{spoiler|Cinque's Rumble Detonator}}, {{spoiler|Signum}}'s right hand is replaced with a cybernetic prosthesis created from {{spoiler|the melted down scraps of Laevatein's original framework}}. Her eye is a total loss, though, so she gets an eyepatch for that.

* [[Ascended Extra]]: Yunno, of course. This is one of the author's behind the [[Relationships Series]] after all.

** So much so that he's an [[Adaptational Badass]] by now.

** Shiro, who manages to hold his own when traveling with his family and friends through Lina's homeworld. It helps he temporally wielded the magic absorbing [[Absurdly Sharp Blade|Blast Blade]] before relinquishing it to Gourry.

Line 61:

Was nothing but a large sunken hole in the ground that had some rocks that were glowing red. Well, that and the large amounts of glass that people were walking on. Other than that, he was certain that if they had gotten there a moment later, none of those girls would be alive, hell, he was almost certain that the continent would be split in two before the energy dissipated naturally. }}

* [[Babies Ever After]]: Not only does ''Try'' have the original canon ending of Filia receiving the egg of the reborn Val, Lina announces that she's pregnant again.

* [[Back From the Dead]]: Gaav, {{spoiler|only for him to [[Back for ~~The~~ Dead|die again finally getting his revenge on Shabranigdo.]]}}

* [[Back From the Dead]]: Gaav, {{spoiler|only for him to [[Back for the Dead|die again finally getting his revenge on Shabranigdo.]]}}

* [[Bad Boss]]: Dynast Grausherra. At least, when he pretty much sees Sherra as worthless after being defeated by Xellos. Of course, he later try to use Sherra as a backup body when Lina vapes him with a Ragna Blade fired through Galveira. Zelas prevents his plan from succeeding though.

* [[Batman Gambit]]: {{spoiler|Regius}} and {{spoiler|Quint}} pull off a beautiful one near the end of StrikerS: Knowing that {{spoiler|the Brains}} have too many friends in high places, the two instead arrange for {{spoiler|Due}} to "escape" Riot Force custody. When {{spoiler|Vita}} and {{spoiler|Leti}} find her, they also find {{spoiler|the Brains}}, and the latter orders the former to kill them. As it turned out, they're abominations to the natural order, and Bureau law mandates that such creatures are to be exterminated on sight.

* [[Be Careful What You Wish For]]: {{spoiler|Arisa}} asks the Fire Dragon King to burn {{spoiler|Yunno}}'s clothes off, since it was his power that melted her pants, revealing her panties. The Shinzoku does so, but instead of a [[Shirtless Scene]], {{spoiler|Arisa}}'s treated to {{spoiler|Yunno}} [[Male Frontal Nudity|in his birthday suit]].

* [[Big Breasts, Big Deal]]: Tre is both Type 1 and Type 2. Thanks to suffering years of teasing from Quattro, she's quite embarrassed about people looking at her assets for too long, as she thinks that her breasts and butt are too big for anyone other than {{spoiler|Sein}} to enjoy.

* [[Big Damn Heroes]]: Aside from the canon rescue of Nanoha in A's beginning, we have Precia, the poster woman for abusive mothers, who saves Fate from Alicia's tortures in ''Jump''. Following that is Chrono, Yunno, and Shamal who uses the Jewel Seeds to create a Sea of Chaos rift to keep Death Bringer from killing Lina, and then Unison Reinforce who keeps Death Bringer from pulling a [[Taking You ~~With~~ Me]] with Lina.

** Zelgadis finally gets to show off as he {{spoiler|saves Erio, Caro and Fried from the Mariages. A moment later, Kuma and the Florian sisters show up to help as well.}}

* [[Big Eater]]: Shockingly, not Lina. Having basically retired and cut back on her magic usage, Lina doesn't need to eat as much as she used to. (Though she still eats a lot.) The kids on the other hand...

Line 78:

** After getting a small power boost of black magic, {{spoiler|Levi}} enlarges {{spoiler|Quattro}}'s chest in order to have the bust size she originally had.]]

* [[Broken Bird]]: {{spoiler|[[Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha As Portable ~~(Video Game)~~|Kyrie and Amitie Florian]]}} come from the Death Fog staff world where they were created to serve under a Mazoku. They've been resigned to being under a Mazoku's service, not allowing themselves to dream and hope for anything for themselves. Especially after their father was killed. To emphasize their broken nature, {{spoiler|Kyrie}} explains to {{spoiler|Shamal}} [[Prison Rape|what she expected after being captured and imprisoned.]]

** {{spoiler|Amitie}} fully expected {{spoiler|Kuma}} to use her and throw her away when they entered the Hot Springs. He just calmly talked to her about it and swore not to let {{spoiler|Levi}} use them like she planned... he still got a [[Raging Stiffie]], but didn't act on it.

* [[Busman's Holiday]]: Lina's return home was supposed to be just for reuniting with her old friends and family as well as introducing her new ones. However the Mazoku got wind of her return, and she just couldn't leave that be, knowing [[The Call Knows Where You Live|that trouble could easily follow her back to Earth]].

Line 90:

* [[Chekhov's Gun]]: After seeing the Starlight Breaker for the first time, Lina wonders what it would be like to use the Dragon Slave against that spell. Then in the ''Try'' arc, the corrupted golden dragon elder uses the Dragon Slave against Nanoha, who counters with the Starlight Breaker. The resulting collision between these two spells is not something you'd want to stick around for.

** In the first arc, Miyuki mentions wanting a magic sword, and Lina said only if the Sword of Light shows up. In the ''Shine'' arc, Sirius comes visiting, bearing all five Dark Star weapons.

* [[Clothing Damage]]: While it existed in Nanoha canon, here fights have left cast members at least half naked. In one spar the strategy of [[Defeat By Modesty]] even comes up.

* [[Cool and Unusual Punishment]]: {{spoiler|Uno}} decides to force {{spoiler|Quattro}} to watch three hours worth of [[~~Barney and Friends (TV)|~~Barney and Friends]] for over-the-top teasing of {{spoiler|Tre}}'s figure. Due to {{spoiler|Quattro}} sharing a body with {{spoiler|Levi}}, the punishment was horrifying in their opinion. And this is with {{spoiler|Uno not even knowing about the Mazoku in the Numbers' ranks.}}

* [[Continuity Nod]]: Remember how Nanoha chanted the [[G Gundam|Shining Finger]] chant when charging up the Starlight Breaker in Season 1? It came back with a vengeance in the Red arc, this time with {{spoiler|Reinforce Zwei}} doing it.

* [[Contrived Coincidence]]: {{spoiler|Sein}}'s job was to enter the TSAB and observe their tactics. She does so by enrolling, and somehow by chance becomes {{spoiler|Subaru}} and {{spoiler|Teana}}'s roommate. Then by chance, {{spoiler|Subaru}} and {{spoiler|Teana}} meet {{spoiler|Nove}} and {{spoiler|Wendi}}, both undercover as civilian and familiar, and then later {{spoiler|Quint}} meets all three. {{spoiler|Nove}}'s familiar resemblance causes {{spoiler|Quint}} to confront {{spoiler|Regius}}, leading to the latter to confess to {{spoiler|Quint}} everything about the combat cyborgs, Jail, and his relationship with the TSAB.

* [[Deal ~~With~~ the Devil]]: The Golden Dragon elder under the Fire Dragon Lord, along with his loyal followers, make one with Dynast Grausherra in hopes of gaining the power to kill the last Ancient Dragon. He's a plain [[Hypocrite]], as he accused Lina of doing the same earlier with the Lord of Nightmares.

** {{spoiler|Vita and the other Wolkenritter}} made a similar deal with {{spoiler|the Book of Darkness}}. For extra power, they would {{spoiler|become its Guardian Knights upon their deaths. It didn't work well, as Signum was shown murdering Vita shortly after Vita got her powerup}}.

* [[De-Power]]: A minor case, but Reinforce goes from being able to take on both [[Person of Mass Destruction|Lina]] and [[Wave Motion Gun|Nanoha]] at the same time, to having trouble with [[Mechanical Monster|Mechanical Monsters]] later in the story.

Line 121:

* [[Deus Exit Machina]]: Lina's pregnancy keeps her from being physically active in the events of Shine, and places her in just a advising role, allowing the plot to focus back to most of the Nanoha-verse cast as they deal with the new reality.

** {{spoiler|A more sinister version has Luna killed off-screen and Nanoha nearly killed, requiring Lina to get Nanoha out of the area so she can focus on stopping Nanoha's rampant Chaos magic from doing more harm than good to her body.}}

* [[Distracted By the Sexy]]: Vita caused this to happen the last time she was at the beach, having grown to become quite the looker. [[Even the Girls Want Her|Even some girls crashed into something while looking at her.]]

Nanoha, channeling her Chaos powers, and Hayate, unisoned with Reinforce. Only then did they KO'ed each other, destroying the entire training grounds in the process.

Line 139:

* [[Expy]]: Death Bringer Garoth is pretty much one of Hellmaster Phibrizo. Lina even [[Lampshade Hanging|calls him a Phibrizo-wannabe]].

** Vita and Reinforce Zwei come across a [[Mechanical Monster]] that strongly resembles [[Transformers Prime|Megatron]].

* [[Foreshadowing]]: A rather neat and subtle one happens in chapter 8 where Lina thought that if Yuuno had been on her home world, he would have been called the next great sage. 32 chapters, 3 arcs, and one in-story year later when on Lina's home world, both Shinzoku and Mazoku are calling him the fifth great sage.

Line 189:

* [[Minion ~~With~~ an F In Evil]]: Xellos ''really'' does not understand Earth's socioeconomic or environmental patterns, so he keeps trying to create misery, and ends up a town hero. Like killing a warlord. Or turning a diamond mine into a coal mine. Or blowing up a port that turned out to have been a [[Wretched Hive]]. Or killing all the rabbits in Australia.

* [[Nocturnal Emission]]: Poor Yuuno. He's incredibly embarrassed about it, but Kyouya tells him that it's perfectly natural and normal for boys his age to suffer through it. He tells Yuuno to pack more underwear when going on trips in the future.

* [[Noble Demon]]: {{spoiler|Jail's goals now involve reminding how bad Mazoku are, even if he's seen as a villain.}}

Line 252:

* [[Obfuscating Stupidity]]: A number of characters come across far less dangerous than they really are upon first glance, notable is Lina (who's a lot more mellow than she was in [[Slayers|canon]]), Nanoha (who's seen being mischievous quite often), Reinforce Zwei (who's so incredibly cute, bubbly and energetic that you want to take her home), and Caro (who's so cute that people say is [[Tastes Like Diabetes|too cute sometimes.]])

** {{spoiler|Vita probably takes the cake by the strikers arc, simply because she'd rather be out partying, going on dates, having fun with said dates, riding her motorcycle and generally relaxing. Despite this, she's arguably the strongest person in the Riot Force physically, is quite willing to provoke her friends into a sparring match where she's at a disadvantage, and has enough raw sexuality to make someone who disliked her suddenly start crushing on her.}}

* [[Older and Wiser]]: Lina, after spending 15 years on Earth. When she reunites with her friends, [[Not As You Know Them|they are surprised at how changed she is]].

** Exemplified in the ''Red'' arc where Luna's inaction could have cost Arf, Arisa and Suzuka their lives. Instead of losing her temper at Luna, Lina dismisses Luna and later takes her to a place where Luna can see the potential results of her actions.

* [[Our Zombies Are Different]]: {{spoiler|The Mariage are undead women who look completely identical, can morph their arms into various weapons, move so fast that even augmented humans have a hard time following their movements, cut down barriers with ease and explode when they've had enough}}

Line 259:

** {{spoiler|The inverse is expected to hit Levi hard, with increasing involvement of Mazoku and Shinzoku from the Red World as well as Dark Star and Vorfeed reborn on the Blue World.}}

*** {{spoiler|It did. See [[Humiliation Conga]].}}

* [[Overshadowed By Awesome]]: {{spoiler|Nove feels this way when she compares herself to her sisters.}}

** {{spoiler|Teana feels this way and makes it known after she gets manhandled by Riksfalto, combine with the advice Kuma gave her.}}

{{quote| '''Kuma:'''{{spoiler|"Listen, little missy, at this level, only the freaks of nature can survive, if you're normal, you're likely to get hurt."}}}}

Line 266:

* [[Polyamory]]: It was Filia who push for the three-way relationship between her, Chrono, and Amy. The same Filia who first thought of Chrono as an unrepentant pervert.

* [[Premature Eulogy]]: Lina returns to her home world only to here that Seyruun just held a funeral for her, and finds her family holding a wake for her. She does admit, though, given that she had been consumed by the Lord of Nightmares, no one should have expected her to return alive.

* [[Put On a Bus]]: Every main character in the ''Dusk'' arc, allowing the author to explore the minor and secondary characters more.

* [[Put on a Bus]]: Every main character in the ''Dusk'' arc, allowing the author to explore the minor and secondary characters more.

* [[Race Against the Clock]]: For the defenders of Seyruun against the Mazoku horde led by Luke-Shabranigdo, they have two-and-a-half hours from the beginning of the battle till a TSAB fleet arrives, in which the [[Wave Motion Gun|Arc en Ciel equipped ships]] [[Beam Spam|will begin to purge the area]].

* [[Reality Warper]]: The high-ranking Mazoku in general, but special mention goes to Death Bringer and Huraker.

Line 272:

* [[Red Herring Twist]]: Initially it looks like Lina will be able to revive Alicia, but then a few scenes later we learn she failed. Then subverted when we learn Alicia was already brought back...[[Came Back Wrong|as a Mazoku.]]

* [[Retired Badass]]: Lina was content to just settling down and run a business [[Generation Xerox|like her parents]], especially in a world where few things needed the use of her magic. Then the Jewel Seed incident happened...

* [[Revenge By Proxy]]: Valgaav was convinced to target Nanoha instead of targeting Lina directly. Unfortunately for him, Raising Heart had a [[Super Mode|new upgrade]] that made Nanoha a not-so-easy target.

* [[Revenge by Proxy]]: Valgaav was convinced to target Nanoha instead of targeting Lina directly. Unfortunately for him, Raising Heart had a [[Super Mode|new upgrade]] that made Nanoha a not-so-easy target.

* [[Roaring Rampage of Revenge]]: It was revealed that after the incident that sent Shiro to the hospital, Lina decided to [[Gotta Kill Them All|kill every known member of the Clover terrorist group]]. Part of this was misplaced guilt that she could have done something about them after the attack on the Fuwa clan reunion. Needless to say, several hundreds died at her hand within a span of a week. This was the last time she lost control of her temper.

* [[Running Gag]]: Lina's now modest breast size being felt up or commented on while back in her world.

** {{spoiler|Mr. Snuggles, the world's most unlucky cat.}}

* [[Schedule Slip]]: Comparatively speaking, when the author was posting at his peak, he was getting two to three, and sometimes up to five chapters a day done. The posting speed has dropped to maybe two to four times a week at best.

* [[Sealed Good in A Can]] and [[Sealed Evil in A Can]]: The Blue Dragon God and Chaotic Blue sealed each other away. This is the biggest problem with Garoth's plan, as it hinges on that the pillar he found actually contains his master and not his master's enemy. He is killed without succeeding in getting the pillar broken, so [[The Un-Reveal|nobody knows for sure.]]

** Arisa Bannings is revealed to have a fragment of the Blue Dragon God inside her.

Line 291:

** Yuuno's attack on Riksfalto is suspiciously similar to what Nanoha did to Vivio in StrikerS.

** Fate's new mode makes her [[Mobile Suit Gundam|Three Times Faster.]]

** In one of her pregnant mood swings, Lina borrows Graf Eisen and wonders [[~~Gao Gai Gar~~|why the tree isn't turning into light.]]

*** [[Brick Joke|Comes back]] in the Red arc with Vita [[Drop the Hammer|decides to try it out herself.]] It works better for her than it does for Lina.

** Quint pulls off a [[Yin-Yang Bomb|Hell an]][[~~Gao Gai Gar~~|d Heaven]] against Nanoha in a training match and later again when she and Megane are under attack from a [[Mechanical Monster]]. Guess now we know who Subaru inherited her title from.

** Miyuki is a [[Kamen Rider]] fan.

** A rather unusual one that doubles as [[Actor Allusion]], but Arisa Bannings, when using her Holy power, has blue wings and a sword made of blue fire, allowing her to fly and fight against Mazoku. If you colored her hair red and turned her flames red, she'd be [[Shakugan no Shana|Shana]].

** In ''Red'', Signum's fight against a rather powerful opponent is a [[Shout-Out]] to Mazinkaiser's battle against Baron Ashura from the OVA.

** Yuuno, of all people, pulls out a move that would have [[Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann|Kamina and Simon]] smiling proudly.

** Shiro adapts a line from ''[[The Princess Bride (~~Film~~)|The Princess Bride]]'' when confronting Gaav.

** Shabranigdo gets one to [[Dissidia Final Fantasy|Gilgamesh]] and [[Bob and George|Mynd]] in the same scene.

** Nanoha has a series of weird dreams and thinks that things could be worse, she could be [[White Devil of the Moon ~~(Fanfic)~~|at her brother's wedding and end up hospitalized because of overusing her magic when she was supposed to be resting.]]

** Reinforce wants to see Erio, Caro, and Rein {{spoiler|do the [[The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya|Hare Hare Yukai]]}}

** Suzuka is revealed to have been descended from a race of beings called [[Vampire Princess Miyu|Shinma]]. Something of a [[Stealth Pun]], as her older sister was a vampire in ''[[Triangle Heart 3 ~~Sweet~~ ~~Songs~~ ~~Forever~~]]''.

* [[Shower of Awkward]]: Due to a lot of steam, Yunno thinks the bath is unoccupied, when in fact Miyuki was in it. Yunno quickly thinks he's going to end up hurt.

* [[Skinship Grope]]: Hayate and Sein who else?

Line 314:

* [[Something Only They Would Say|Something Only They Would Cast]]: Lina proves to her parents that she isn't a Mazoku doppelganger by casting a Dragon Slave. Mazoku can't call on powers higher than themslves as it would be admitting they are weak and therefore end up absorbed by the Mazoku they are trying to call upon.

** Couldn't she have used a Ragna Blade or something, instead? Same principle, only it would have had less collateral damage.

* [[Spared By the Adaptation]]: Precia, who is taken into custody after being introduced to Lina's Nemesis Breaker spell, a Dragon Slave variant that calls upon the Dark Lord Chaotic Blue. She ends up dying at the end of the ''Shine'' arc, and after that given a proper funeral, a funeral that even Jail attends.

** Reinforce, after Lina purges the device of the corrupt defense program. Despite this, Reinforce Zwei [[In Spite of a Nail|is still created]] as the original can only safely Unison with Hayate now.

** Mazoku generals Riksfalto and Sherra, who died in the Aqualord manga and novels, respectively.

Line 324:

* [[Super Mode]]: Nanoha's Assault Mode, which can safely channel Nanoha's internal Chaos powers for about five minutes, and Fate's Rubin Blitz form, both designed to aid in combating Mazoku. Quint and Zest's Devices were updated with a new Blast Mode armor form, with the material derived from reverse-engineering the Blast Sword.

* [[Super-Powered Evil Side]]: Nanoha when forced into tapping into her innate Chaos magic abilities.

* [[Super Speed]]: {{spoiler|Straight Kuma (Cougar), whose ability is the same from [[~~Scryed~~]], running so fast he turns the ground to glass and is faster than Fate. Although if he overuses it, he can't walk right for a while.}}

* [[Surprise Pregnancy]]: {{spoiler|Well, Xellos and Ragnort weren't expecting daughters between them, given how their specices actually ''procreate'', much less procreate with each other.}}

** In a darker moment Garoth reveals that the Saint Kaiser was pregnant with Klaus' child. Emphasis on the 'was' as he terminated said pregnancy before ending the Saint Kaiser's life.

Line 333:

* [[Tempting Fate]]: [[I Thought It Meant|No, not Fate T. Inverse.]] {{spoiler|After a meal at an all-you-can-eat buffet, Yunno hoped they can relax for the day and have nothing crazy like an airport fire happen. Hayate bet her current pair of panties against that. [[The Stations of the Canon|Guess what happened.]]}}

* [[The Cameo]]: Naga shows up at the end of the ''Try'' Arc, much to Lina and Amelia's shock.

* [[The Call Put Me On Hold]]: Interestingly, [[The Pope]] was able to tell that Nanoha would be very special in the future.

* [[The End of the World As We Know It]]: In ''Shine'', it seems the world of ''[[Lost Universe]]'' lives up to its name, somewhat, with it going through the Big Crunch and then the Lord of Nightmares hitting the [[Reset Button]] on it, sans Mazoku and Shinzoku.

* [[The Maiden Name Debate]]: Instead of taking the last name Takamachi, Fate decides to take Lina's maiden name when being adopted.

* [[The Mole]]: {{spoiler|Sein, with Due already exposed back in the ''Shine'' arc, and unable to fulfill her canon role. This time however, Sein is roommates with Subaru and Teana.}}

Line 344:

{{quote| '''Chrono:'''I... I... [[Noodle Implements|The banana and the bagel...]] And...}}

* [[The Tease]]: Well, Yuuno keeps seeing Miyuki without a shirt for some reason...

* [[The Triads and ~~The~~ Tongs]]: Zelas ends up in control of the majority of Hong Kong's underworld, all because she killed some two-bit thugs for harrasing her and decided to go up the hierarchy.

* [[The Triads and the Tongs]]: Zelas ends up in control of the majority of Hong Kong's underworld, all because she killed some two-bit thugs for harrasing her and decided to go up the hierarchy.

* [[Think Nothing of It]]: Xellos would rather not accept any gratitude from the slaves he inadvertently saved. Praise makes a Mazoku sick, after all. Turns into a [[Running Gag]] as everything Xellos tries to do to make things worse for people or make them feel bad [[Can't Get in Trouble For Nuthin'|ends up helping someone else out in return]].

* [[Throw the Dog A Bone]]: Zelgadis learns how to temporary take on a human form from observing Arf's shape shifting. His chimera body is his true form still, but it's closer to a cure than he's ever had before.

* [[Throw the Dog a Bone]]: Zelgadis learns how to temporary take on a human form from observing Arf's shape shifting. His chimera body is his true form still, but it's closer to a cure than he's ever had before.

* [[Time Skip]]: The ''Red'' arc has a two year time skip, jumping to when Nanoha is 14.

* [[Time to Unlock More True Potential]]: Zelgadis didn't like the idea that he was [[Not Worth Killing|ignored by the Mazoku assassins]] in favor of the mages Lina brought, so he {{spoiler|decided to head for Mid-Childa as well to learn new magical styles in exchange for his magical knowledge. He becomes a renown instructor.}}

Line 352:

* [[Took a Level In Badass]]: Yunno having learned Shamanistic magic and Resurrection, as well as nearly killing Riksfalto with a modified Ra Tilt, earning him an audience with Vrabazard. Since then, those in the know are already calling him the next Great Sage.

* [[Too Much Information]]: {{spoiler|Lina is not amused when Xellos talks about his unintended conquest of Rangort with unnecessary details, especially in front of 12-year old Fate.}}

* [[Touched By Vorlons]]: Not only did the aftermath of the Hellmaster incident tossed Lina through time and space, but a fragment of the Lord of Nightmare's being is infused into her soul. Nanoha has her own fragment, having inherited from her mother, and Hayate and Reinforce got theirs when the Book of Darkness drew from Nanoha's linker core. Nanoha's younger brother was also infused with L-Sama's essence as well, with Lina casting the Ragna Blade and attempting a Giga Slave during the first weeks of her pregnancy.
