Since the story's completion, the author has begun rewriting the story due to a feeling of sub-par writing and the five or so years of experience they've gained since then, a revision they have titled ''Chronicles of the Chosen.''

* [[Original Character]] - Plenty. There are many, many OCs in this story, split between the author himself and his co-authors.

* [[Self Insert Fic]] - In a sense; while Ben is in the game worlds of both ''[[Final Fantasy X]]'' and ''[[Final Fantasy VIII]]'', he isn't joining the game's plot or characters; both universes are now post-game (or games, in the case of the former).

* [[What the Hell Hero|What The Hell, Hero?]] - A minor example, but Yuna takes an opportunity during a conversation between herself and Ben in chapter 57, ''The Ties That Bind,'' to call him out on his increasingly distant attitude towards his friends.
