this is played straight (albeit done both ways), not a parody imo



* ''Manga/SPYxFamily'': Parodied. Superspy code name TWILIGHT is currently on assignment under the name Loid Forger with a fake family; he managed to convince his fake wife, Yor, to participate without informing her about his true nature or his mission. He is often worried about her discovering the truth. Yor, on the other hand, is constantly worried about ''him'' realizing that she is actually the assassin codenamed THORN PRINCESS. Both are actually completely oblivious to the other's secrets. Anya, their psychic adoptive daughter, knows everything that is going on and often does what she can to help them out without them noticing, partly because she cares for her new parents and partly because she's just as entertained by the whole situation as the audience is.

* ''Fanfic/OversaturatedWorld'': From ''[[https://www.fimfiction.net/story/323071/250/group-precipitation/scratching-at-the-wrapper-by-fome Scratching at the Wrapper, by FoME]]'': Lyra being suspicious of Bonbon's out-of-place martial arts skills. They're not married, but they're close. And then there's Bonbon's discussion with her parents, where her dad is basically confirmed as having previously worked as a spy:
--> At dinner that night, Bonbon bit her lip and said, "Dad?"\\
Bon Mot looked up from his spaghetti. "Yes, Sweetie?"\\
"Did... did Mom ever, you know... ''suspect''?"\\
Her mother, Aspartame, snorted. "Believe me, Sweetie, if I had ever suspected what he was up to before it was too late, I would... Well, things would've gone differently."
