* The page quote describes the title character of ''Series/{{Monk}}'', an obsessive-compulsive police consultant who is not only a brilliant detective but also so neat that he hardly ever leaves a trace. In the Season Six finale, "[[Recap/MonkS6E15MrMonkIsOnTheRun Mr. Monk Is On The Run (Part 1)]]", Monk is [[FrameUp framed for murder]] and arrested, but escapes custody while en route to the county jail, shedding his orange jumpsuit and stealing a change of clothes. The Sheriff's men are confounded when they find the jumpsuit is so clean that their tracker dogs can't pick up any scent to follow.
** In the earlier episode "[[Recap/MonkS4E7MrMonkGoesToAWedding Mr. Monk Goes To A Wedding]]", a Monterey County detective lampshades the trope after Monk makes a series of deductions: "I'm glad he's on our team."''

* In ''Fanfic/SupernovaOnePiece'', the Straw Hats have to clear a blockade made by Baroque Works in order to get to Alabasta. After Nico Robin, [[ForWantOfANail who had joined back in Whiskey Peak]], brutally sank several ships, Vivi promptly declared this trope. This leads to a humorous moment when Robin promptly lampshades how she's being called the scary one after [[WeatherManipulation Nami]] and [[ThePowerOfTheSun Luffy]] have had their turns.

to:

* ''Fanfic/ShadowsOverMeridian'': Many Phobos loyalists share this sentiment about Jade and the Shadowkhan, acknowledging that they could suffer the wrath of the Shadow Realm along with the rest of Meridian if something happened to their Queen, which gives them every reason to follow Raythor and Phobos' orders to protect her at all costs.

* In ''{{Manga/Eyeshield 21}}'', [[EvilGenius Hiruma]] tends to invoke this reaction. It's even lampshaded [[http://www.manga-access.com/manga/E/Eyeshield_21/chapter/129/6 here]] when he was playing against his teammates in a school sports event. Team Japan also have [[TheSociopath Agon]]and [[TheJuggernaut Gaou]] which scares [[TheHero Sena]] and [[TheLancer Monta]] but are relieved to have the best players in Japan on their side even if they double as the most brutal.

* In Literature/TheDresdenFiles, the main character Harry Dresden is this for a lot of his allies. This is made painfully clear by Harry's best friend and non-magical mortal ally Karrin Murphy when she's describing him in action during the sidestory 'Aftermath': Despite the fact she's known him for over a decade, she still finds the sight of him in battle pants-crappingly terrifying.

* In ''VideoGame/StarWarsBattlefront II'', if you go on a killing streak your allies make comments. One of them is "I'm glad your on our side!" Another is, "Save some for the rest of us!" Amusingly, the better you do, the worse the AI gets.

** In ''Endwalker'', however, [[spoiler:the aforementioned nightmare scenario ''actually'' ends up playing out, as Fandaniel manages to capture the Warrior of Light and subsequently engineers a takeover of their body by Zenos. The [=WoL=] is forced into the body of a random Garlean soldier, and left to catch up with their possessed body in one of the most brutal solo duties of the entire game. And even if you succeed in the duty, the [=WoL=] only ''narrowly'' prevents their Zenos-possessed body from murdering Alisae, Gra'ha and the rest of the Scions in short order.]]
