* In the short comic "Cupid's Day Off" by Evan Larson, Cupid operates like a military sniper, requiring confirmation from Mission Control for every arrow he fires. Naturally, after a particularly stressful mission, he decides to take a day off, leaving the bow and arrow in the hands of his well-meaning but untrained assistant, who decides to just fire arrows at every pair in sight, regardless of whether or not both parties are even sentient resulting in dozens of crack pairings (including Franchise/{{Batman}} and a roll of toilet paper...)

* ''VideoGame/GalGun'' and its sequel, ''Double Peace'', center around this: a trainee angel is working as a cupid as part of her final exam, and shooting an arrow into a human unlucky in love will basically give their romantic chances a big boost for a short time. However the trainees accidentally shoot the protagonists with several dozen arrows at once, drastically intensifying their effects and making every girl who sees him instantly fall in love... but if he's unable to find his "true" love before the day is over, he never will, since all of his romantic karma will have been used up.

* In the ''Literature/MythOMania'' series, Cupid uses three different kinds of arrows, two of which invoke the TemporaryLoveInterest trope. Love induced with yellow-tipped arrows only lasts an hour. Orange-tipped arrows (the only ones he wields in his first appearance, ''Literature/PhoneHomePersephone'') create romantic effects that wear off after three days[[note]]unless the couple can form a genuine affection, like Hades and Persephone[[/note]]. Red-tipped arrows make people permanently fall in love. ''Literature/HitTheRoadHelen'' introduces the "Smoochie Woochie" arrow, which Cupid uses to make Helen of Troy leave Menelaus for Paris.
