Line 24:
* [[All Myths Are True]]: Sort of. Many of the Perpetuals are either the basis of various mythological and historical figures.
* [[Alternate Universe Fic]]: It doesn't take too long after the Emperor reunites with his "sons" that divergences from canon become even more pronounced.
* [[Everyone Calls Him "Barkeep"]]: Eve in particular tends to be called "Empress of Mankind" by the citizens of the Imperium at large.
* [[Expy]]:
** Eve, in both her appearance and personality, is based on C.C. from [[Code Geass|''Code Geass'']]. She also has a few tinges of a genderbent Malcador in for good measure.
Line 31 ⟶ 32:
* [[First-Name Basis]]: In a fashion. Eve is the only one who really gets to call the Emperor by what's heavily implied to be among his first names: {{Spoiler|Adam.}}
* [[Grey and Gray Morality]]: Compared to Chaos, the major human factions by and large come across as this to each other.
* [[Happily Married]]: Downplayed. Eve and the Emperor don't always see eye to eye and have had some quarrels over their millennia-long lives, only reuniting upon His arrival on Baal Secundus after a particularly long separation. Nonetheless, they still clearly care for each other, with Eve remaining unashamedly loyal to her beloved.
* [[Immortal Procreation Clause]]: Perpetuals in general are unable to reproduce naturally, often resorting to adoptions among others. Though it hasn't stopped some from finding ways to circumvent sterility.
* [[In Spite of a Nail]]: Played with.
Line 40 ⟶ 42:
* [[Original Character]]: The Perpetual "mothers" themselves, though they're not the only ones. In addition to them, notably, are the two Lost Primarchs and their respective Lost Legions; unlike in canon, they're not only discovered but remain loyal to the Imperium.
* [[Space Romans]]: Compared to the Imperium, the United Human Empire of Albion forged by Merdraut is based on an idealized, if technologically advanced re-imagining of Britannia and old Camelot.
* [[Time Abyss]]: The Emperor and the other Perpetuals, by and large, have been around for since antiquity or some point in humanity's earlier history. Anri, meanwhile, can't really recall anything earlier than the 20th Century (her earliest memories being during the Holocaust), despite Eve and the Emperor having encountered her more than once generations before then.
* [[Unconventional Formatting]]: The Emperor's dialogue tends to be displayed using {{Color|gold|gold-colored text}}.
