* [[Hidden in Plain Sight]] - Faeries Valencia and Ryley pretend to be elves who make a living dressing up as faeries (as real faeries were thought to be evil and extinct). They simply pretend that their wings are pasted on and that their strange hair colors aren't natural.
* [[I Hate Past Me]] - "Evil Baughb" is Baughb's younger self, living in the future. Twisted by despair into an evil wreck, he is trying to go back in time to destroy the world he came from. Somehow, he regained (will regain) his [[Glamour]] and (most of) his sanity, although exactly how this happened (will happen) is still not known. This trope might work both ways; Evil Baughb definitely hates his older self, who lives in the past. Baughb might not ''hate'' his past self, who lives in the future, but he's certainly not proud of what he once was (will be).
* [[I'm Cold... So Cold...]] - Glynhial pulls off [http://www.elflife.net/elflife-returnofglynhial/20001106-05rg2.php one of these].
* [[Immortality]] - Faeries don't age beyond adulthood. Glynhial had already lived for quite some time in the oldest flashbacks, about a thousand years before the main story. She's still alive on present day Earth, about a thousand years ''after'' the main story. The sprites, on the other hand, seem to view time as just another spatial dimension, and are possibly as old as the universe itself, if age even applies to them. Averted with the elves, who do grow old, just a lot slower than humans (their age is measured in centuries rather than decades).
* [[Innocent Innuendo]] - Filis is gushing to Airek about how she and Baughb spent the previous day "frolicking". When Airek mentions that she didn't need to use euphemisms around him, she explodes:
Line 33:
* [[Jerkass Facade]] - Filis puts up one of these.
* [[Just Before the End]] - Like a belated transplant rejection, the last remnants of Alfheim will crumble to nothingness, allowing Earth to regain its original form. Baughb, having been to the future, is the only one who knows this will happen, and that it will happen rather soon.
* [[Know When to Fold 'Em]] - Baughb has travelled for a long time through the faerie gates, trying to return to his loved ones. He's been stranded in many different places and time periods. When arriving in Filis' and Aerik's time, [[Tear Jerker|he decides to give up his quest]] and stay.
** It is later revealed that his quest was actually fulfilled. The reason he went through the faerie gates in the first place was that {{spoiler|baby Filis}} was thrown into one. When he found {{spoiler|the adult Filis}} safe and sound, he could kick back and relax for the first time in a century.
* [[Living Relic]] - Both Baugh and Glynhial are living relics of the elf kingdom.
