* ''Wiki/SCPFoundation''

* The last time Ed and Mustang meet before the climax of [[Anime/FullMetalAlchemist the 2003 anime version]] of ''Manga/FullmetalAlchemist'', they make it clear that while they had fun pissing each other off, they really did respect each other. They then depart separately to what they both believe to be their destinies.

* The DownerEnding of ''WebVideo/DemoReel'' has Donnie forced to separate from his friends (he'll get erased to be someone else and they'll fade into the PlotHole so KillEmAll yay), and badass closed-off Carl tries to make him feel slightly less terrified by giving him a salute.

* ''Film/PearlHarbor'': [[DespairEventHorizon As the Doolittle Raiders' fuel tanks are beginning to run dry without any sight of China]], Lieutenant Colonel James Doolittle breaks radio silence to give his men in the bombers a final message:
-->'''Jimmy Doolittle''': "I'm sorry, gentleman. You're all brave souls. Among the bravest I've had the privilege of flying with... But we're on our own."

-->'''Cortana:''' If we don't make it...\\

-->'''Forge''': Son, I have a feeling before this is over, we'll need every last Spartan in the fight. I can do this. Report back to the ship.\\

--> '''Wakka:''' I can't believe we're gonna fight [[spoiler:Lady Yunalesca]]! Gimme a break!
--> '''Lulu:''' You could always run.
--> '''Wakka:''' Hah! I'd never forgive myself - no way! Not if I ran away now. Even in death, ya?!

-->'''Dr. Cid:''' Let him by, Venat. It is done. Ah, how I have enjoyed these six years.\\

-->'''Noctis''': Well... What can I say? You guys... are the best.

--> [[spoiler: '''Mordin''': Had to be me. [[MeaningfulEcho Someone else might have got it wrong.]]]]

-->'''Yamcha''': Hey Tien, since this is the end...\\

--> "We gave our lives once to [[HeroicSacrifice save this world]]. We can do it again."

-->'''Sarge:''' Men, it's been an honor to serve with you. And I say that using the loosest possible definition of the words 'honor' and 'serve'.

-->'''Sarge:''' Gentlemen, looks like this is it.
-->'''Simmons:''' Sir, it's been an honor.

-->'''Church''': I just wanted to let you know. Out of all the guys I've ever known, I hated you all the least.

-->'''Michael''': And for what it's worth, Agent Porter, I am sorry for what I did to you. I never said it, but I am truly sorry.\\

** Before John blows up a nuke in season 4.

-->'''Wheelie:''' We had a good run Brains, me and you.\\

* ''Film/PowerRangers2017''. The Rangers [[HoldTheLine make a last stand]] against Rita and Goldar to prevent them from reaching the Zeo Crystal, but their power proves too much for the heroes and their zords get pushed into the pit, overwhelmed by the heat and pressure of Goldar's attack. As the Rangers make peace with their fate, Billy thanks them all for being his friends. [[spoiler: Thankfully things take a turn when they fuse into the Megazord]].

'''[=McCoy=]''': Well that's just typical.

* Another spoof from ''Machinima/RedVsBlue''.

* Subverted in ''WesternAnimation/MegasXLR'', when an out-of-control Megas is on a collision course with a Glorft starship, one pilot looks at the other one and goes, "I've always hated you." Seconds later, Megas plows through the ship's bridge, and the ship explodes.

-->'''Trapper:''' If I don't see you again...Merry Christmas.\\
'''Hawkeye:''' Tell me when I get back.

* During an invasion of both Hell and Dormammu in ''FanFic/ATwelveStepProgramtoOmnipotence'', Tony Stark puts aside his previous antagonism towards Michael McCole to tell him that "you're a dick, but even so, it has been a genuine honor", with McCole reciprocating the sentiment.

* ''Fanfic/ThisBites'': Non-lethal, but still poignant example. [[InSpiteOfANail Despite]] all of Cross's changes, [[spoiler: Doflamingo's machinations, Kizaru's attack, and Kuma's ultimatum has hammered into everyone that the Straw Hats must separate for two years to be ready for the New World, though Kuma is at least allowing them to be sent off without a fight]]. With Luffy choosing to go last, all of the Straw Hats give these statements to their captain [[spoiler: before Kuma sends them away]].

* In ''Film/{{Eternals}}'', When Kingo [[spoiler:refuses to fight the Celestial or his fellow Eternals, instead [[OptOut opting out]] altogether]], Karun leaves with him and tells the other Eternals before walking away that it has been an honor to have known them.

'''Jesse''': ''(embarrassed, and a little choked up)'' Come on, man, just... I signed up to fight the bad guys, right? That's all you were ever doing, so we're in this together. You good with that?//

* ''Literature/TheHost'': Doc says a variant of this [[spoiler:to Wanderer, right before her HeroicSacrifice]].

* Near the end of the ''VideoGame/GalacticCivilizationsII'' campaign, as things take a turn for the worse, you get this line from the [[ProudWarriorRace Arceans]].
