History Main / BewareTheQuietOnes

* Loid Forger aka Agent Twilight "Manga/SPYxFAMILY" is usually seen to be calm and withdrawn but his actions speak far louder than his words in response to acts he deems unacceptable, especially when geared towards his fake family.

** [[ShrinkingViolet Fluttershy]] is the quietest member of the mane cast, on account of being, well, [[MeaningfulName shy]]. Then comes "The Best Night Ever". When she's avoided by the forest creatures of Canterlot... [[{{Yandere}} well]], [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W7fQSBC4Ids see for yourself]]. Fluttershy in "Putting Your Hoof Down." Dear Celestia... She displayed this way earlier, in "Dragonshy" and again in "Stare Master". "Dragonshy" is the episode where the fans learned that you do not mess with Fluttershy. From Season Four, [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS4E6PowerPonies "Power Ponies"]] demonstrates that you wouldn't like Fluttershy when she's angry.

* Kenny from ''WesternAnimation/SouthPark'', normally both TheQuietOne and TheUnintelligible, certainly qualifies as of the "Mysterion" story arc. He says the most he ever does during these few episodes, and his BerserkButton is revealed; do NOT [[KnightTemplarBigBrother mess with his little sister]].
* ''WesternAnimation/StevenUniverse'' features [[BrokenBird Lapis]] [[TrueBlueFemininity Lazuli]]. Barely taller than Steven, she's rather withdrawn and quiet- and also a [[MakingASplash hydrokinetic]] PersonOfMassDestruction who can lift the entire ocean at once. Her first appearance has her calmly introducing herself to Steven -- and a moment later, one-shotting [[LightningBruiser Garnet]] with a huge hand formed out of water. Later episodes have her [[spoiler:fusing with Jasper]] to drag [[spoiler:their combined form]] underwater in a scene that calls to mind DraggedOffToHell.
** Garnet herself is the more reticent and (relatively) level-headed of the Crystal Gems, and ''very'' capable of taking charge when needed.

* Blanc/White Heart from ''VideoGame/{{Neptunia}}'' is normally a [[TheStoic stoic]] SugarAndIcePersonality with a soft-spoken voice, but she'll become a [[HairTriggerTemper hot-headed]] and [[NoIndoorVoice loud-mouth]] LadySwearsALot when agitated enough, while her HDD form is aggressive and tough. Then there's the fact that she also wields a [[DropTheHammer giant hammer]] (or axe) [[GlacierWaif to contrast with her petite appearance]].

* In ''Fanfic/ItsAlwaysTheQuietOnes'', normally very good-natured Luna ''can'' be pushed too far, as Ravenclaw bullies who steal her mother's pendant and Snape, who joins in publicly verbally harassing her, find out the terrifying [[spoiler: and for Snape fatal]] way when she invites ''Cthulhu'' to stop by the Great Hall during dinner.

* Toto from ''WebVideo/CreamHeroes'' is one of the quieter and calmer cats, but he can be brutal to anything he perceives as a threat. He's attacked vacuum cleaners, and massagers, and once beat a noisy dog toy so badly he knocked its batteries out.

* In the [[VideoGame/HalfLife2 HL2]] [[GameMod Mod Story]] "G-String", the main character you embody is Myo Hyori, who, like Gordon Freeman, is a [[HeroicMime complete mute]], minus the occasional pained moans and so forth. As she progresses through the story, the corrupt government eventually [[https://i.imgur.com/txtAS2f.png paints her as public enemy number one]], [[HeroWithBadPublicity despite her fighting the very forces that bring ever more misery]] to the [[CrapsackWorld shitty world they reside in]] due to her constantly-growing [[PlayingWithFire Pyromantic powers]] and even [[spoiler:[[BulletTime slow-mo power]] that eventually reaches a point where she usually emits a bolt of static electricity every now and then, no bullshit.]] All her and her family wanted was to live in peace, and as even that was cruelly taken from her over the years, she slowly transforms into this trope over the course of the story.

This rage is almost always expressed verbally, though [[LetsGetDangerous violence]] can also be included. Their verbal attack can differ from an ego-bruising TheReasonYouSuckSpeech, a mentally scarring [[BreakThemByTalking Breaking Speech]] or an emotional NoMoreHoldingBackSpeech. If they are also TheStoic, they might also ask the offender "DidYouThinkICantFeel" before ranting about all they have been put through. One might also catch [[PrecisionFStrike a swear or two]].

* ''ComicBook/{{Batgirl 2000}}'': Cassandra Cain was originally mute, and after learning speech, she doesn't talk much. That's because her dad taught her to talk with her ''fists''. Heaven help you if you get her mad.

* The two most dangerous characters in ''ComicBook/SinCity'' are Miho and Kevin. She's a badass ninja and he's a cannibalistic serial killer. Neither of them ever speak a word.
* ''Franchise/SpiderMan'': The Spot used to be a Spider-Man villain known for being largely ineffectual and mouthing off. Then he got trapped in the dimension he teleports through. Now he's mute, insane... and probably one of the deadliest killers alive.

* ComicBook/{{X 23}} rarely spoke at all in her first appearance (''ComicBook/{{NYX}}'') and origin story, (''Innocence Lost'') and even after is a laconic girl who generally shuns the company of others. She's also a highly-trained assassin and one of the most dangerous killers in the main Marvel Universe. God help you if you harm one of the handfuls of people she ''actually'' cares about.

* In ''Literature/DrFranklinsIsland'', Semi is [[ShrinkingViolet shy and awkward]], but when their first escape attempt is foiled her usually take-charge friend Miranda resorts to pleading. ''Semi'' goes berserk, biting a captor, [[BetterToDieThanToBeKilled throwing herself at an electric fence]], punching and kicking and screaming until she's strapped into a straitjacket. Later, after the change, Semi and Miranda meet mentally in the "white space" where it's difficult to lie, and Semi is briefly furious seeing a Miranda who's [[CowardlyLion afraid and unsure]].

* In ''Fanfic/ItsAlwaysTheQuietOnes'', normally very good-natured Luna ''can'' be pushed too far, as Ravenclaw bullies who steal her mother's pendant and Snape, who joins in publicly verbally harassing her, find out the terrifying [[spoiler: and for Snape fatal]]way when she invites ''Cthulhu'' to stop by the Great Hall.

* After his blood oath to Ashe, Tryndamere from ''VideoGame/LeagueOfLegends'' seems to have become this. In "A Smoldering Coal", Sigra notes how in her initial time serving as Battlemaiden of Ashe, she felt disappointed of never seeing Tryndamere's legendary fury. He always acted as a very calm, if not bored, normal man. With nothing on his gestures or eyes that gave away his supposedly terrifying temper. That's it, until they were attacked by a traitorous Warmother and her warriors. Now, the thought of one day seeing Tryndamere angry again completely terrifies her.
