Aren't Elm and Vine a joint allusion based on The Elm and The Vine? It's commonly mis-attributed to Aesop, and it's a poem about the support a married couple give each other. Not that I'm saying Elm and Vine are married, but more that their abilities are complimentary and work together well, which is also why they got paired up in the mission.

I mean, I guess the concept of the Elm and The Vine poem could have be adapted from The Oak and The Willow fable. Or maybe the Tree and The Reed, which is sometimes called The Oak and The Reed.
