Line 12:
* [[Canada, Eh?]]: The book takes place in Canada (specifically Ontario) on this Earth, as well as its geological analogue on the Neanderthals' Earth.
* [[Can't Argue with Elves]]: The interactions between Neanderthal and human society start to look like this by about halfway through the first book, and continue throughout the series, with the Neanderthals taking the part of the "elves."
* [[Everyone Is Bi]]: Every Neanderthal has a male and a female mate. There may be aversions, but they aren't discussed in the books. Enforced by virtue of living in a segregated society (females all live in the city center, males all live on the rim; the two meet for four days out of every month, which can be timed to avoid or encourage fertility). May also invoke [[
* [[Fish Out of Temporal Water|Fish Out Of Quantum Water]]: Ponter on Human Earth, in spades. Mary later has similar troubles on Neanderthal Earth.
* [[Half-Human Hybrid]]: One of the major subplots is Mary and Ponter's struggle to have a child together.
