* ''VideoGame/{{Fractured}}'': The 3rd game features the boy and the girl from the last two games, in where they pursued the ghost of their parent [[spoiler:only to ultimately fail]]. This game has them find each other's ghosts instead, and the ending scene has them sit side-by-side. It's inferred from the narration that they are the "two hopeful souls."

* As in canon, ''Fanfic/LostInCamelot'' sees Arthur and Merlin (''Series/Merlin2008'') have a bonding moment when they talk about how Arthur never knew his mother or Merlin his father. Prior to that scene, Merlin had shared a similar moment with his lover Bo (''Series/LostGirl'') where the two acknowledge that neither of them know their fathers (although in Bo's case, she's glad of that ignorance given that her father was almost certainly her mother's rapist).

* ''WesternAnimation/{{Amphibia}}'': In "Hopping Mall", Anne spends the whole episode looking for a present to give to her mother. At the end of the episode, Sprig wakes up in the middle of the night to find Anne awake and on their hotel room's balcony. He asks her about her mother, leading Anne to admit that she misses her mother more than she was letting on. Her admission leads Sprig to reveal to her ([[TheReveal and the audience]]) that his and Polly's mother passed away when they were very young. He admits that he doesn't know exactly how Anne feels, but he can relate because, even though he never knew his mother, he still finds himself missing her. Anne grabs him in a hug.

* Implied in one ''Franchise/StarWars'' comic starring Boba Fett. Boba's latest target tries to throw him off by pointing him in the direction of a possible Jedi in hiding. Boba tracks the man down and blows up his house, but discovers that the man is no Jedi. He is merely the son of a Jedi who died in the battle of Geneosis (the same battle in which Boba's father Jango lost his life) and was left with nothing but his father's lightsaber as a keepsake. The man starts to cry as he states that he had to grow up without a father, remarking that he doubts Boba would be able to understand. As Boba recalls the moment he held Jango's severed head as a child, the man's own son arrives on the scene. He asks Boba if he's going to kill them both. In the next scene, Boba tracks down and finishes off his original target.
