Line 3:
Trivia about ''[[{{ROOTPAGENAME}}]]'' includes:
* [[Rouge Angles of Satin]]: In general Pixelwriter1 averts this, but a few things slip in here and there, such as a "phase/faze" confusion.
** They also have a confusing idiosyncrasy in their writing style in which, when they have two bits of dialog and a nonverbal reaction from the second speaker to the first between them, they almost invariably append the reaction to the first's speaker's dialog instead of prepending it to the second's, in direct contradiction of standard rules of composition and usage. If the reaction is ambiguously worded, it can be quite confusing. For instance:
{{quote|"''So, no stealing a NASA souvenir, then?''" Rei joked, sounding slightly disappointed. Ami gave her a severe glance.
"'No. Leave the space toys alone.''" Rei giggled as her friend folded her arms and stared hard at her.
"''Aww. OK, I guess being here is good enough.''"}}
::In proper composition the line breaks should be at "Ami gave" and "Rei giggled", to keep the characters' actions associated with each other. This is endemic throughout all of Pixelwriter's work.
* [[Shout-Out]]s:
** Right from the start, there is the title, which references the 1985 film ''[[Desperately Seeking Susan]]''.
