* [[Action Girl]]: Alex, Hanna, Jo, even Shar. Hanna's code name ''is'' "Action Girl".
* [[Actor Allusion]]: Scattered here and there throughout the story:
** The brunette pixie cut that Alex adopts to distance her appearance from that of Terawatt just happens to be the look that Alex Mack's actress [[Larisa Oleynik]] was sporting as of her appearances in ''[[Hawaii Five-0]]'', ''[[Mad Men]]'' and other works in the early 2010s.
** A twofer: When discussing with Willow how different she appears from her adoptive parents, Jack O'Neill tells her:
{{quote|You, on the other hand, look like your last name ought to be [[American Pie|Flaherty]] or [[Alyson Hannigan|Hannigan]] or O’Clancy.}}
** Alex thinks Jack could cosplay as [[MacGyver]] because he resembles the actor.
** Buffy Summers is a former ice skater, and her boyfriend is named [[Freddie Prinze, Jr.|Freddie]].
* [[All Jews Are Ashkenazi]]: Averted: Willow's parents are explicitly identified more than once as ''Ashkenazi'' Jews, implicitly acknowledging the existence of other Jewish subcultures and genotypes.
* [[Alter Kocker]]: Mina tells a story to Alex and friends which ends up with her grandmother calling her grandfather this.
