| Wingspan | comment |
Wingspan claims to be a work of hyperfiction, meaning it should be made up of sections that can be read in any order without diminishing the work as a whole. However this is clearly false. While the sections do not have a single defined order which is the only one in which they makes sense, there are two guidelines that can be used to avoid chronological contradictions. Everything except gurl definitely comes after lostwings Alley comes after StormOne of the main themes of wingspan is passive redemption, aka the idea that suffering cleanses the soul. The main character, Jewel, is the angel of kindness, until she has her wings ripped off and is thrown from heaven near the end of lostwings because she gave something to a dying boy to comfort him and he became so attached to it he almost couldn't enter the kingdom of heaven. This theme is embodied in the character of the Archangel Michael, whose prime role in story is as the angel of redemption and punishment. He considers the pain he inflicts to be a Necessary Evil and his duty. However after enjoying the ritual he preformed on Jewel a bit too much, he begins to question the second of these pillars of his moral justification.The second main theme of wingspan is realization of the need for, and risk of, personal involvement in the jobs of both Michael and Jewel. | |

Winged Humanoid | |
| Wingspan / int_2588feac | comment |
Winged Humanoid: Not the typical white winged angels. They have white wings yes, but this is in addition to their many other sets of wings, which are different colors and made out of different things. | |

Laughing Mad | |
| Wingspan / int_4ae690ca | comment |
Laughing Mad: Jewel starts laughing hysterically as she swings from a broken wrist after she has been crucified. Subverted in that she is not, and does not go, insane. | |

Painting the Medium: Pages in Micheal's Point of View are white text on black background, probably to indicate his darker nature. | |

Minimalist Cast: Jewel, the main character. Michael, the villain. And Rimi, who only appears in the chapter named after him. The only other important character is the unnamed boy who caused Jewel to be cast out of heaven. | |
