Ambiguous Syntax: The Maunts defending Trism and Liir exploit the Exact Words of the demands as not applying to the people they are guarding. | |

Nice Job Breaking It, Hero! | |
| Son of a Witch / int_7fbb2a3 | comment |
Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: The torn-out page from the Grimmerie that Elphaba had on her person during her audience with the Wizard late in the first book (and which he confiscated). That page was stated to contain spells for controlling dragons — and the post-Wizardic government has made good use of the Wizard's translations in commissioning the the Dragon Corps project. | |

Ship Tease | |
| Son of a Witch / int_dcb9c541 | comment |
Ship Tease: At the end of Son of a Witch, Liir is separated from both of his love interests, Trism and Candle, but only due to circumstances - he's open to a relationship with either. The third book is entirely silent on the matter, as they don't appear, though the family tree at the beginning shows relationships out of wedlock to both of them. The fourth book would appear to finally resolve the matter, with Liir married to Candle, and Trism assumed to have betrayed the both of them. But by the end of the book, Candle has left Liir indefinitely, and while his reunion with Trism was fraught with argument, it was also heavy in Unresolved Sexual Tension, revealing that their attraction hasn't faded. The book ends with Liir alone, stating that his door is open to either of them should they choose to come back. Since this leaves open any option a fan prefers, including a One True Threesome, it can come off as fanfic baiting. | |
