 And as the Tournament draws to a conclusion, it appears that the unknown actors behind the mysterious threat are growing impatient -- or desperate.  They abandon subtlety for more direct action, and Hermione must face a far more complex and dangerous plot than she had anticipated at the start of the assignment.  And to her chagrin, along the way she finds herself forced into the kind of over-the-top action she had sworn to herself that as a Bond she would studiously avoid.

 In addition to works already listed on the pages for ''[[Hermione Granger and the Boy Who Lived]]'' and ''[[The Teraverse]]'', characters or elements from the following works make appearances in this story:
@@ Line 48: / Line 48: @@
 * [[How We Got Here]]:  The story opens on the first day of the tournament, then immediately flashes back for several chapters to how the various point-of-view characters got roped into their parts in the tournament.
 * [[Idiosyncratic Episode Naming|Idiosyncratic Chapter Naming]]:  Many of the chapters told from Hermione's point of view are entitled in the form "Hermione and the X".
+* [[Imposter Forgot One Detail‎]]:  How Hermione quickly determines that a message she receives (allegedly from L) during the Third Task is a fake -- the sender doesn't know that Ron is ''there at the Tournament'' undercover helping her, and claims he's been injured on an op.  The sender also doesn't know certain (important) details of L's communications arrangements.
 * [[Is That What They're Calling It Now?]]:  Hermione says this about a reference to "international relations".
 * [[It's All About Me]]:  Part of what sinks the actual villains' plans -- they automatically assume that the threat they pose to Terawatt's friends will be of a higher priority than ''anything'' else Terawatt faces and she will drop everything to address it.  They don't anticipate that Terawatt could possibly be dealing with something ''more'' important and would prioritize it over her friends.  (Even so, it's a close thing a few times.)
 * [[Kaiju]]: This time it's the Teraverse version of Gamera, called "Kamera" due to a different romanization of the original Japanese.
-* [[Kill It With Fire]]:
+* [[Kill It with Fire]]:
 ** Hermione's solution to the kothoga.
 ** {{spoiler|Not content with simply rendering the anti-Terawatt weapon inoperable and unrepairable, the good guys arrange for it to be utterly destroyed in a fire that also takes out a large portion of the hotel in which it was based.}}

 * [[Rent-A-Zilla]]:  Despite its importance to the plot, Kamera is [[The Ghost]] and doesn't even appear until the last fifth of the story, although it and its actions (and its eggs) are the subject of much discussion and concern.
 * [[The Reveal]]:  A very minor one, at the end, when we find out that {{spoiler|Scout One and Scout Two from Hermione's support team are [[The Mole|agents]] of the Order and the League, respectively}}.
-* [[Running Gag]]:  Svetlana's "untrustworthiness" throughout the Tournament is frequently expessed by others as an expectation she would "throw someone under the bus" for any advantage she could get.  It [[Brick Joke|pays off]] when she [[Literal Metaphore|actually throws a bad guy under a moving bus]] during the ambush during the Third Task.

 * [[Seppuku]]:  At the end of the story the unnamed Honda clan genin offers to atone for his clan's dishonor in exterminating the Osaki ninja clan with a formal act of contrition.  Rinkin accepts his apology and does not require him to kill himself.
 * [[She's All Grown Up]]:  Gabrielle Delacour, who seems to have become even more of a stunning beauty than her older sister Fleur.
 * [[She's Got Legs]]: Vadya, despite being in (at least) her sixties.
-* [[Something They Would Never Say]]:  How Hermione quickly determines that a message she receives (allegedly from L) during the Third Task is a fake -- the sender doesn't know that Ron is ''there at the Tournament'' undercover helping her, and claims he's been injured on an op.  The sender also doesn't know certain (important) details of L's communications arrangements.
 * [[Stuff Blowing Up]]:  Seems to be the curse of being 007/"Bond".  Even though she ''tries'' to minimize or eliminate collateral damage, Hermione still ends up blowing up and burning down multiple structures and vehicles, to the amusement of her support team, who tease her about it.
 * [[Theme Naming]]:  Discussed -- Hermione wonders if, based on the precedents of Gojira and Kamera, future kaiju will all be named along the lines of "something relevant" + "ra".
