History GreenEyedMonster / FanFiction

* ''VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog'' fanfic ''[[http://games.adult-fanfiction.org/story.php?no=544198778 A Rose And A Thorn]]'' is a Shadamy fic, but the theme throughout is Envy. Shadow and Amy pair up astonishingly easily and seem perfect together - but it becomes something far uglier than a petty LoveTriangle as Sonic's powerful rivalry with Shadow drives him to become envious not merely of Amy's love for Shadow, but of Shadow's increasing happiness and popularity thanks to her, with the 'monster' even souring his new potential relationship with Rouge.
--> '''Sonic:''' ''(to Amy)'' "What is it you see in him that's not in me?"\\
''(Sonic kisses Amy)''
** Also important, Rouge becomes jealous that Shadow wants another woman (she doesn't have any grudge against Amy). She manipulates Sonic to try to split them up so that Shadow will come back to her even as she realises she likes Sonic's charm and free nature. WordOfGod is that Sonic's envy blinds him to thinking rationally and he believes Rouge because ''he wants to'', and not because she's some kind of EvilGenius.
* Referenced by name in ''Webcomic/AxisPowersHetalia'' fanfic ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/11886910/1/Gankona-Unnachgiebig-Unità Gankona, Unnachgiebig, Unità]]''. The green-eyed monsters within Germany and Japan grew to the point [[spoiler:they began [[CockFight beating the crap out of each other]]. If Italy had not intervened in time, it would have gotten ''much'' [[MurderTheHypotenuse worse]].]]
-->Logic died a horrible death in the face of those green-eyed monsters as they took over the two countries. It seemed as though the goodwill from earlier had outright vanished, inverted completely as it morphed into the ugliest of hatred. Yes, the ugliest of hatred was born...
* ''Fanfic/AdviceAndTrust'': Asuka is very possessive of Shinji. She constantly states that he is hers and she is not sharing him or giving him up for nothing. Coincidentally all her female classmates have crushes on him and have simultaneously decided trying to seduce him, and their attempts to flirt with and hit on him drive her murderously mad.
* [[VideoGame/DragonAgeInquisition Cullen]] is a minor example in ''[[Fanfic/TwiceUponAnAge All This Sh*t is Twice as Weird]]'', mostly because of a case of MistakenForRomance mixed with TwiceShy. Both of the men he thinks are his rivals find it hilarious.
* ''Fanfic/BloodAndHonor'': Quinn reveals a jealous side to his nature while he and Sanguis are in the "off again" phase of their relationship. It's mild at first, confined to glaring at cantina dancers who show the Sith a little too much attention, but it comes to a head on Taris, where Lt. Pierce enters the picture and displays obvious interest in Sanguis. Quinn takes an immediate dislike to the lieutenant and underestimates the latter's abilities. To Quinn's credit, he eventually realizes that he's judged Pierce unfairly and is upset that he's let his personal feelings affect his judgement.
* ''Fanfic/TheChildOfLove'':
** In chapter 1 Shinji explains the “jealousy” concept to Rei. She tells him that she thinks she is indeed jealous, but she is not angry with him.
** On the other hand Shinji gets angry, snappy and rude when other men talk to Asuka. And Asuka is also very possessive (not surprising since she is a very insecure person).
* Grimlock in the Transformers fanfic ''Fanfic/AChildShallLeadThem''. He is ''not'' happy when fellow Dinobot, Swoop, ends up getting the Matrix and becoming leader of the Autobots, the position he's always coveted. [[spoiler: He gets better and ends up serving as a mentor figure to his teammate.]]
* ''Fanfic/ChildrenOfAnElderGod'':
** Asuka at the beginning got agitated, angry and jealous when she saw her crush Kaji flirting with Misato. Later she got jealous over Shinji.
** Rei was usually calm, but she could get very jealous where Shinji was concerned. When she saw Asuka clinging to Shinji's arm in chapter 5, she actually ''growled''. While she glared silently at Asuka, her clenched fists shook, her eyes seemed to glow for a second and her friends got very, very scared.
--->''"For such a dweeb, that Ikari's got chicks all around him, huh?" asked Touji.''\\
''Kensuke nodded, still videotaping.''\\
''Suddenly, his camera died.''\\
''They heard a growl.''\\
''It wasn't just your ordinary growl, from a dog or a wolf. This was a deep growl, the sort of growl that suggested monstrous origins, dark and shadowy nights, and the promise of endless hours of pain. It was accompanied by a blast of cold running down their spines. The two turned around, slowly.''\\
''Rei was staring at Asuka, intensely, her face twisted in anger. Her fists were clenched, shaking slightly. It was hard to tell in the sunlight, but they thought they saw her blood red eyes glow brightly for a moment.''\\
''"Ohshit," whispered Touji. "She's mad."''
* ''Fanfic/ACrownOfStars'':
** Rei was not happy when she learnt that Shinji and Asuka were together now. She was incredibly jealous of Asuka and refused to believe the German woman cared for Shinji.
** [[BigBad Jinnai]] was absolutely livid when he learnt that Asuka was enthusiastically having sex with Shinji in a daily basis after being a cold fish with him for two years. His jealousy was born from sheer wounded ego and possessiveness since Asuka was nothing but a not-quite-willing toy to him, and he never cared for her in the slightest.
* The titular Magma Grunt of ''Webcomic/DatingATeamMagmaGrunt'' is not necessarily "possessive" of Brendan, but is awfully quick to get all suspicious when she sees the latter conversing with his friend May. This quickly gets cast aside however.
** [[SubvertedTrope Subverted]] with her meeting of Lilia who is already on friendly terms with Brendan. It looks this way at first until she shows she's just incredibly tense from working up the nerve to ask for Lilia's autograph.
* Duke in ''FanFic/DecksFallEveryoneDies'', to the point where he wants to kill Tristan.
* In the ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'' fanfic ''Fanfic/ADelicateBalance'', Fluttershy isn't at all happy that Twilight's infatuation with Applejack means that they can't spend as much time together. Fluttershy being Fluttershy, she feels awful about the fact that she's putting her own feelings before Twilight's and tries to be supportive of Twilight's relationship anyway.
* The source of Daryan's [[DomesticAbuse abuse]] of Klavier in ''FanFic/DirtySympathy'': Daryan was originally their band's singer and frontman before their label made them switch. The switch became permanent when it was proved that Klavier had better stage presence and better vocal range.
* ''Fanfic/DoingItRightThisTime'': When Asuka suspects Rei can be in love with Shinji she starts to feel jealous… and then she stops herself, remembering her jealousy was used to turn her into a puppet and she is done with that.
-->''Asuka had only ever seen that smile once, directed at Shinji after Ritsuko -or Misato- finally got him back out of Unit-01. Now she wasn't continually seeing red and green both at once, she had to admit it was quite a nice smile. Rather cute, in fact.''\\
''Then Asuka had to fight down a sudden stab of fear, anger and jealousy. Was it possible that Rei's feelings for Shinji were...??''\\
''Arrrrgh. No, bad brain. No hedgehog impressions; that was where it all went wrong the first time round. Rei? Ayanami had deserved better than that, much less Rei Akagi.''
* In ''Fanfic/DungeonKeeperAmi'' both [[ADungeonIsYou Keeper]] [[Manga/SailorMoon Mercury]] and [[AsskickingEqualsAuthority Commander]] [[IronLady Cathy]] show shades of this.
** Cathy has a tendency to elbow her boyfriend [[LoveableRogue Jered]] in the ribs every time he lets his gaze wonder on other women a bit too much.
** Ami turns into this [[AlcoholInducedIdiocy while drunk]], wondering why [[TokenEvilTeammate Jadeite]] doesn't find her as attractive as other girls.
* Hefty is this to Empath in ''Fanfic/EmpathTheLuckiestSmurf'', especially when it comes to Smurfette, who passed over Hefty when he originally proposed marriage to her along with his fellow Smurfs because she couldn't decide which Smurf she loved the most at the time.
* In ''Fanfic/GettingBackOnYourHooves'', its revealed that [[spoiler:this is part of Checker Monarch's motivation for ruining Trixie's life: Trixie's her little sister and Checker, being a [[ItsAllAboutMe self centered]] {{Sociopath}}, couldn't stand having the spotlight split between them. However, she's also driven by a [[ControlFreak compulsion to completely control someone's life]] to justify her AGodAmI complex, and Trixie happened to fit the bill.]] The verse's version of Magic Duel also implies that [[spoiler:Checker was jealous that Trixie got into Celestia's School for Gifted Unicorns]].
** Trixie herself has jealousy as one of her main character flaws in this verse. In the original fic, she shows jealousy over Twilight's close relationship with Shining Armor [[spoiler:compared to her [[CainAndAbel relationship with her elder sister]]]] and in ''Fanfic/PerfectCompanions'' she becomes jealous of the rest of the mane six having pets when she doesn't. She also shows jealousy of Twilight getting to perform in front of Celestia and the Saddle Arabian delegates. However, she has a ''lot'' better control over it than she used to before her HeelFaceTurn [[spoiler:or her insane sister has]] and doesn't allow it to override her loyalty to her new friends.
* In ''FanFic/GraduateMeetingOfMutualKilling'', Ginchiyo was jealous of her sister for receiving the credit and fame for their work. This led her to try to usurp the invitation to Hope's Peak, but when it's revealed it was meant for both of them, she goes back home to tell her sister. The consequences were much more drastic than what she expected.
* [[WesternAnimation/HeyArnold Arnold]] in ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/6376454/1/Green-Eyed Green Eyed]]'', when Helga starts spending time with another guy [[spoiler: who turns out to be her cousin]].

* [[VisualNovel/HigurashiWhenTheyCry Mion]] in the fanfic [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6789334/1/GreenEyed_Demon Green-eyed Demon]].

-->''(bitterly)'' "It's funny. He (Naruto) used to like me but I was so busy trying to get Sasuke and he made me miserable. Now I like him but Naruto is with Hinata and they're happy."
* ''Fanfic/{{HERZ}}'': Asuka is very jealous. When Shinji is out of her sight she often gets tense and angry, thinking some woman will try to steal him or maybe he will fool around. Despite the protestations of Kensuke, she is hardly paranoid, since there is a woman is always trying to steal him.
* As seen in ''WesternAnimation/MiraculousLadybug'', Marinette's crush on Adrien can bring out the worst in her, and in the story ''Fanfic/HopToIt'', she jumps to conclusions about her classmate Jack after Adrien gives her a tour of Paris and offers to tutor her in French. At first, she just treats her coldly without explanation, both as Marinette (after Jack approaches Marinette for help with an outfit on Adrien's recommendation) and as Ladybug (after Jack helps her save Adrien from an akuma), but it leads to a rift with Alya when she wants to interview Jack for the Ladyblog. After a few weeks of this, Marinette schemes to set her up with a replica of Chloé's favourite outfit. When Alya and Marinette find out that Jack has a boyfriend back in the US, they both scramble to prevent her "social suicide", and Marinette admits that what she did was wrong and would have been if she hadn't misread the situation with Adrien.
* In ''Fanfic/TheKeysStandAlone: The Soft World'', Paul confesses to the others just how jealous he's been of them, because they aren't terrified of killing someone just by breathing on them.

* Kakashi calls Sasuke out on this in ''Legacy Of The Rasengan: Naruto''. Despite knowing about Naruto's life Sasuke is jealous of Naruto's power. Kakashi points out that A) Sasuke is being very childish (because Naruto has something he doesn't), B) Sasuke knows for a fact Naruto only uses the Kyuubi's charka as a last resort and C) because of B, Naruto works and trains harder than anyone in his age group going so far as to be a CombatPragmatist and ObfuscatingStupidity to get the drop on people.
* In ''Fanfic/LovedAndLost'', [[TheUsurper Prince Jewelius]] is revealed to have hated his aunt Princess Celestia and cousin Princess Cadance for years because they're more well-known and popular than him, even though Cadance considers him her favorite cousin to the point of regarding him as her little brother. Because of that, he [[spoiler:strikes a partnership with Queen Chrysalis to invade Canterlot on Cadance's wedding day before he betrays Chrysalis in favor of using Twilight Sparkle as his pawn]]. He then uses the events of the Changeling invasion to usurp the alicorns and tarnish their reputations, trying afterwards to have them killed so that their memories will be overshadowed by his reign.

** Asuka doesn't like when other girls get too close to Shinji. She resented Rei because she thought Shinji would rather being with her.
** [[spoiler:The true BigBad of the story, the [[AIIsACrapshoot mad A.I.]] known as the Emerald Tablet, develops feelings for Asuka ([[WhatIsThisThingYouCallLove feelings which it cannot fully comprehend itself]]), and as a result it becomes murderously jealous of Asuka's relationship with Shinji. It cannot understand why she would she would choose to cling to a mortal life to be with a flawed human male, when it offers her to an immortal existence with a supreme being like itself. Also it dismisses Shinji's love for her as being tainted by an inevitable element of him biologically desiring her body, while it views it own desire for her as being more pure in nature, in that only desires her for her mind.]]
* In ''Fanfic/OnceMoreWithFeeling'':

* Asuka in ''Fanfic/TheSecondTry'' is pretty jealous. She strongly disliked Kaworu, partially because he lusted after Shinji.

Given Suzaku's BigShutUp afterwards, she hit the nail on the head.
* [[VideoGame/DragonAgeOrigins Alistair]] has a few moments of this throughout ''FanFic/ShadowAndRose'', during the period when he CannotSpitItOut how he feels about the Warden.

* Invoked in ''[[Fanfic/SkyholdAcademyYearbook The Year of the Unicorn and the Emerald Princess]]'', when Rory tells Jim about [[VideoGame/DragonAgeInquisition Michel de Chevin]] dropping in on her art class and [[ItMakesSenseInContext dancing with the teacher]]. Once Rory tells him that Cullen, who was also visiting the class, had a strange look on his face, Jim immediately asks, "Was it a green-eyed monster sort of look?" Looking back to the first installment of the series when the same scene happened on Cullen's perspective that lead him to believe that he's in ImaginaryLoveTriangle between Evvy and Michel all while feeling jealous at the latter, this trope is played straight.
* ''FanFic/ToHellAndBackArrowverse'':
** Eddie Thawne towards Barry Allen, thanks to his extremely close bond with Iris West, Eddie's girlfriend and Barry's childhood best friend.

* ''Fanfic/{{Juxtapose}}''
** Vlad King is furious when he learns that the two newest entries into the Hero Course, [[spoiler:Izuku and Hitoshi]], are both going to be in Aizawa's class instead of his. He's only mollified by the promise of additional interclass exercises.
** Downplayed in Mirio's case. Despite being one of U.A.'s "Big Three", he admits he's jealous of [[spoiler:Izuku for winning the Sports Festival in his first year and making his weak Quirk strong, which Mirio needed three years and Sir Nighteye's tutelage to accomplish. Even still, he's fully supportive of Izuku and wants to see him succeed to the point of dropping formalities around him.]]
* Downplayed in ''Fanfic/AmazingFantasy''. For all his life, Izuku was ostracized and bullied for being [[UnSorcerer Quirkless]] and he began to resent the people around him for it. He tends to bury his resentment underneath his admiration for Heroes, but it comes out in his bitter internal snark, which becomes much more prominent after he gains spider powers and his [[ProfessionalButtKisser ex-tormentors start sucking up to him.]] He's disgusted with himself for feeling this way, even after Peter assures him that he went through the same thing as a teenager.

-->"I can't read minds," he said. "But... yeah. There's a lot going on there. I kind of talked to her about it on Thursday, but she pushed me away. I'm not her favorite person, but she needs help."\\
She let you die, I thought. There was time. She could have saved you.\\
"She hates you," I said bluntly.\\
"I can't read minds," he said again. "So I can't talk about what she's thinking, or how she's going to act. All I can see is what she's feeling, and we don't have a lot of control over that."\\
Every word he spoke really only confirmed the worst of my suspicions. It wasn't that Tattletale or the stress or the Nine that put things into her head; the desire and will to change, control, and take me had always been there, and everything else had merely exposed it.\\
"There's the ugly stuff—the jealousy, the hatred, the, the—" He broke off, looking uncomfortable.
* ''Fanfic/TheHomeWeBuiltTogether'': Snotlout has always been Astrid's AbhorrentAdmirer. Now that she's by-law off-limits by being Hiccup's wife, Snotlout has rigged his bullying tactics to driving them apart, planting in Hiccup's mind that she secretly hates his guts.

* Lilith takes this up to horrifying levels in ''WesternAnimation/TheOwlHouse'' fanfic ''[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/26069647/chapters/63647746 The Emperor's Chains]]'' when she takes glee in [[WouldHurtAChild torturing Luz]] simply because the human has a closer relationship with Eda than her.
* ''Fanfic/HereThereBeMonsters'': Georgina Sivana hates ComicBook/MaryMarvel because Mary is beautiful, powerful, has a decent mother... and wins her fights.
-->'''Georgina Sivana:''' "You don't hate the Little Blue Cheese as much as I hate her. She's got looks and powers and a rich stepmother and a nice house and everything. And she wins, too. Every time, she wins."
* This is the prevalent cause of RonTheDeathEater in many, ''many'' ''Literature/HarryPotter'' fanfics for, well, Ron Weasley. As the second youngest child of a huge family, who dote on his younger sister, and surrounded by people better able to deal with the world around him, jealousy and {{Sloth}} become the central facets of his character. (Of course, depending on the author, this might be an excuse for him to DieForOurShip.)
