Line 17:
 
* [[Abusive Parents]]: The Dursleys of course, but {{spoiler|Vernon more so than usual}} thanks to the [[Butterfly of Doom]].
* [[Anti -Villain]]: Dumbledore. In a refreshing twist, the Big D isn't portrayed as a Machiavellian Chessmaster or a cacklingly evil [[Magnificent Bastard]], but as a fundamentally good person with the unfortunate flaw of thinking he knows what's best for people. Hell, he's not even a villain, really, more like a hero who could [[Nice Job Breaking It, Hero|really mess things up if he tries to do what he believes is the right thing]]. Now [[Complete Monster|Snape]], on the other hand...
* [[Arc Words]]: "Broken and battered body" comes up a lot whenever Harry thinks of the future.
* [[A Day in The Limelight]]: Loads of side characters get at least half a chapter from their perspective.
Line 32:
* [[Deconstruction Fic]]
* [[Drunken Boxing]]: Luna picks this up from watching television at a friend's house once. One of the many reasons she's [[Crazy Awesome]].
* [[EverythingsEverything's Better With Platypi]]: Luna's Patronus.
* [[Finishing Each OthersOther's Sentences]]: Fred and George constantly. It's hard to find a line that they don't split.
* [[From a Certain Point of View]]:
** Harry's ''modus operandi''. He ''did'' happen to overhear Draco boasting about a special room in his house full of illegal items, it just so happens that he did so in an alternate timeline.
Line 57:
* [[Mind Rape]]: Both played straight and subverted. {{spoiler|Both Snape and Dumbledore use Legilimency to read students' minds, although Dumbledore is ''much'' more reserved about it than Snape.}} Once Harry catches on to this, {{spoiler|he begins training the Weasleys, Hermione, Neville, and Luna in Occlumency, eventually getting everyone good enough that they can't be read, which drives Snape berserk.}}
* [[Phrase Catcher]]: People have a tendency to refer to Snape as "that greasy git".
* [[Pre -Ass -Kicking One -Liner]]: "Let's test out mum's handiwork, shall we?"
* [[Psychic Static]]: Luna's mind is a natural case of that.
* [[Pyrrhic Victory]]: Naturally.
* [[Right Behind Me]]: Draco really should have known better than to call Professor McGonagall an "old hag" in the middle of a meeting of the club she sponsored.
* [[Six -Student Clique]]: The Gryffindor Six.
* [[Shout Out]]: A fairly subtle one to Gary Gygax in chapter 33, among others.
* [[Sleep Cute]]: Everybody in the Gryffindor Six gets one, all at the same time, in Chapter 22.
