* Firefly from ''Fanfic/AceCombatTheEquestrianWar''. There are times when she acts like an a-hole towards other ponies, especially Fluttershy at the beginning (going as far as to smack her!) as well as Derpy and Medley later on. But deep inside, she's just a troubled mare, trying to readjust herself to the circumstances around her. Thankfully, [[MoralityPet Rainbow]] [[TheHero Dash]] is there to help her.
* ''Fanfic/{{Brainbent}}'' features a few, which isn't surprising since the majority of the cast are dealing with [[DysfunctionJunction some emotional problem or other]], many of them fairly serious. [[Webcomic/{{Homestuck}} Karkat]] is probably their reigning champion. He's a shouty little ball of [[JerkassWoobie rage and self-loathing]], coated in a complete lack of tact, but he is, at heart, a compassionate person. When he isn't buried over his head in his own issues he's genuinely concerned for the people around him, and for all that he can be painfully inept at dealing with his own emotions, sometimes he gives good advice.
* Several people from ''Fanfic/CalvinAndHobbesTheSeries'' fill this role.

* In [[http://www.mediaminer.org/fanfic/view_st.php/19769 Legend of link:lucky number 13]] Ganondorf shows shades of this. Mainly towards his daughter [[spoiler: Separuu]]. He even goes so far as to [[spoiler: [[HeroicSacrifice sacrifice his own soul]] ]] to save the one his daughter loves, which is the one he hates the most: Link.
* [[DarkIsNotEvil Fluttercruel]] from the ''Fanfic/PonyPOVSeries'' became this under [[NiceGuy Fluttershy's]] care. She's still a {{Jerkass}}, sure, but she shows her heart of gold by [[spoiler:forcing herself to the surface to help calm Rainbow Dash down of her own accord]] among other things. Worth even more note is that in the BadFuture we're originally shown, Fluttercruel was a CompleteMonster who did such horrible things that [[YouDoNotWantToKnow Twilight Tragedy refuses to tell us.]]
* Despite acting like a total jackass most of the time- make that ''all'' of the time- [[spoiler: Chaos]] from the ''FanFic/TamersForeverSeries'' still has some moments where he shows that he genuinely respects [[spoiler:his other half]], and that he can actually be a nice guy when he wants to.
** Ryo also fits the bill, or as Takato puts it:
-->''he knew Ryo was just trying to be a friend…a crazy, narcissist, extremely annoying friend, but a friend, after all.''
