* ''Franchise/FiveNightsAtFreddys'': Vanessa, the protagonist of ''VideoGame/FiveNightsAtFreddysVRHelpWanted'', exits the game as a victim of DemonicPossession by [[VirtualGhost Glitchtrap]]. In the 'unintended emails' in ''VideoGame/FiveNightsAtFreddysARSpecialDelivery'' we find out, from her co-worker Luis's descriptions, that she has a habit of searching up ColdBloodedTorture and other forms of {{Gorn}} on her work computer, with the implication she searched up '[[FightingFromTheInside help]]' at least once. Despite this, she shows signs of getting used to her new role of a fledging JackTheRipoff and perhaps even traumabonding, as she requests a '[[AnimalMotifs bunny-shaped cake]]' for her birthday. Luis also mentions she once ordered flowers and chocolate for herself with the message "[[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything Flowers for your grave]]," with the implication "[[GirlfriendInCanada Brad]]" was Glitchtrap [[ImpliedDeathThreat threatening her]]. What makes it more unsettling is that Vanessa's last name starts with an 'A.', and that, according to ''VideoGame/FiveNightsAtFreddysSecurityBreach,'' her [[AmbiguousSituation (maybe)]] abusive dad's name was Bill, making her AmbiguouslyRelated to [[BigScrewedUpFamily the Aftons]]. As Glitchtrap is either William Afton's digital consciousness or an AI imitating him, it just gets... uncomfortable.

* ''VideoGame/MermaidSwamp'': Yuuta with Yuka after the former [[spoiler:becomes [[DemonicPossession possessed]]]].

It's implied he was [[ADateWithRosiePalms masturbating]] to Yuka while she's lying in bed seriously ill, with her whole body grotesquely swollen, and Rin later catches him standing at Yuka's bedside, staring at her and going on about how "beautiful" Yuka is and how he much he likes her being so "docile". Rin is extremely disturbed and orders him to get away from her [[spoiler:at which point he becomes violent towards Rin]]. Considering the later revelation that Yuuta was [[spoiler:possessed by the spirits of the Tsuchida men, who were [[NightmareFetishist obsessed]] with 'mermaids', kidnapping women, keeping them in water, and then preserving their bloated bodies in tanks after they died]], the whole situation becomes ''even worse'', especially as it means Yuuta wasn't even in control of himself at the time.

** Played for laughs in Chapter VI, where a Great Beloved, a bigger version of an already huge, muscular angel monster, falls for the young girl Cereza and keeps her in his "mouth" for the whole fight. All while Cereza is clearly terrified of the whole experience. This culminates in a cheesy piano piece playing over the Great Beloved crying over her while he's being eaten by a demon.

** [[StalkerWithACrush Riccardo]] towards Fiona. At first this might not seem so bad, since [[EvilSoundsDeep his voice seems pretty handsome]], and he looks very mysterious with the brown cloak covering his face. Until they actually ''show'' his face, and it's revealed he's a 40-50-year-old man. It gets much creepier when the player realizes he's [[spoiler:her ''uncle'', and shares the same DNA as her father]]. And he acts like a ''complete'' creep towards Fiona -- abducting her and stripping her so she has to go around the mansion ''naked'', carving a statue of her pregnant (and telling her that he's going to ''make her that way''), sticking some stick thing up her... apparently to make sure she's healthy enough to have his child and to make sure she was a virgin, out-and-out stalking her with a gun ("Fiona, why do you run? [[{{Narm}} Let me into your womb!]]"), and if he catches and kills her during gameplay, the Game Over has him ''raping her body''. The worst ending in the game is where he [[spoiler:''does'' manage to kidnap her, and confines her in a cage and apparently impregnates her. She's later shown as his wife, with him being ''very'' happy]].
** Lorenzo and Fiona. The guy is a crazy, decrepit, wheel chair bound, incredibly old man. Apparently, he wants to rape and impregnate her, too.

If Iji [[SkippableBoss bypasses the duel]] he [[spoiler:leaves a suicide note that makes it sound more like she rejected a date]]. Turning on the [[SillinessSwitch Scrambler]] makes the implied crush on her even more explicit. When Asha's dialogue is more or less composed of "<3", "TOOT TOOT", "HONK" and other possibly dirty things, you can't help but think that Daniel Remar is seriously hinting at something.

* Asha in ''VideoGame/{{Iji}}'' ends up generating some [[StalkerWithACrush one sided]] FoeYay with his obsession. He considers Dan, whom he refers to as "her partner", so unimportant he thinks Iji being upset about [[spoiler:endangering/killing him]] is petty. If Iji [[SkippableBoss bypasses the duel]] he [[spoiler:leaves a suicide note that makes it sound more like she rejected a date]]. Turning on the [[SillinessSwitch Scrambler]] makes the implied crush on her even more explicit. When Asha's dialogue is more or less composed of "<3", "TOOT TOOT", "HONK" and other possibly dirty things, you can't help but think that Daniel Remar is seriously hinting at something.

Sephiroth-Cloud homoerotic subtext can be considered a case of this trope, but I'm not sure



to:

* ''VideoGame/FinalFantasyVIIRemake'': Some of Sephiroth's interactions with Cloud can be seen as homoerotic: he touches him a lot and downright tells him to "embrace him". Since Sephiroth tends to MindRape Cloud a lot, even going as far as to ''show him a vision of his destroyed hometown'', Cloud obviously hates his guts.

Added DiffLines:

* In ''VideoGame/AssassinsCreedSyndicate'' Maxwell Roth's behavior towards Jacob Frye culminates in a kiss as Roth is dying. To many, it reads as disturbing and creepy. Not least of all Jacob, who did ''not'' reciprocate, what with Roth being a sadist and would-be child murderer.
* In the GameOver of ''VideoGame/BanjoKazooie'', it's implied that Mumbo Jumbo fancies Gruntilda, [[NauseaFuel as if he has feelings for her]].
* In ''VideoGame/{{Baroque}}'', there's a bit of well-buried subtext that implies that the Protagonist (12) had feelings for his twin brother (13). The boys are conjoined twins and share a heart; only one of them is conscious at a time when they're both alive, and most of their communication was in the form of notes and playing chess. It sort of gets worse with the manga, which implies 12 has these same sort of feelings for the Absolute God but looks to her as sort of a surrogate for his conjoined twin. So, it's rather complicated and can be mildly unsettling.
* ''VideoGame/{{Bayonetta}}'':
** The eponymous protagonist is MsFanservice who generates subtext almost constantly. Unfortunately this includes mention of "pillow talk" with [[AngelicAbomination Temperantia]].
** Father Balder is even worse. He's first introduced chatting to Cereza, who is sitting in his lap. He then applies lipstick to her lips, before assimilating the child into his chest. The rape-factor is made worse with the revelation that [[spoiler:Balder is Bayonetta's biological father,]] and Cereza [[spoiler:is her child self.]]
** Played for laughs in Chapter VI, where a Great Beloved, a bigger version of an already huge, muscular angel monster, falls for the young girl Cereza and keeps her in his "mouth" for the whole fight. All while Cereza is clearly terrified of the whole experience. This culminates in a cheesy piano piece playing over the Great Beloved crying over her while he's being eaten by a demon.
* In ''VideoGame/BioShockInfinite'' a lot of people saw romantic undertones in the relationship between [[spoiler:Booker and Elizabeth]], which actually kinda made sense [[spoiler:until you find out they are father and daughter]]. Neither of them were aware of it until TheReveal either.
* For ''VideoGame/BlazBlue'', there is a '''lot''' of unpleasant subtext between [[MemeticMolester Re]][[{{Sociopath}} li]][[MadScientist us]] and [[MsFanservice Ma]][[CuteBruiser ko]][[CuteMonsterGirl to]]. His obsession with Makoto's [[OurSoulsAreDifferent soul]] borders on fetishistic, his dialogue and means on restraining her during his [[FinishingMove Astral]] is demeaning, and then there's Makoto's [[http://blazblue.wikia.com/wiki/File:Makoto_Nanaya_(Story_Mode_Illustration,_2).png Bad Ending]].
-->'''Makoto''': [[BigNo NOOOOOOOO!!]] [[MindRape Please... Please stop it! STOP!]]
* In ''VideoGame/ClockTower3'', which was jointly made by Capcom using the same team that made the aformentioned ''Haunting Ground'' (and thus which has virtually no connection to the first two games in the ''VideoGame/ClockTower'' series aside from the obvious theme of having, literally, a clocktower feature prominently in the story) [[spoiler: the main villain, Lord Burroughs, is secretly the protagonist's grandfather, the aptly-named Dick Hamilton, who was so obsessed with his own daughter that he coldly ignored his wife, brutally murdered his son-in-law, and then had his daughter brutally murdered as well by his sociopathic subordinate when she tried to protect her daughter(his granddaughter) from him, with the implication that she was also raped (whether by him or his subordinate or both of them). As mentioned, he later transfers his carnal obsession to his granddaughter, the heroine Alyssa, who's the very image of her mother. She manages to kill him though]].
* ''VideoGame/CondemnedCriminalOrigins'' gives us Serial Killer X/Ethan Thomas. The subtext gets a ''lot'' more blatant in the sequel ''[[VideoGame/Condemned2Bloodshot Bloodshot]]'', where SKX actually ''rescues'' Ethan, gets close to him and holds a knife to his throat, whispering to him, "Yes... I look forward to cutting you open... learn your little secret..." or how he told Ethan, "Do you think of me whenever you look at your hand? I think of you every time I look in the mirror..." Which would all be well and good, except SKX has a [[NightmareFuel huge section of his mouth/jaw blown off, and has a bunch of cuts and scars on his forehead and face]]. And adding to that, Ethan is a pale, sickly worn down drunk. Please, No Yay.
* One of the possible companions in ''VideoGame/DragonAgeII'', Fenris, is a former slave. For a long time, a common theory was that he was more than just a body guard; especially since some of his former master's lines give certain implications. This seemed to be just a theory since Fenris acts exasperated when Isabela brings it up, but then WordOfGod confirmed it. Also, said former master is an old guy with BloodMagic and a serious LackOfEmpathy. And Fenris has been a slave since childhood. This also manages to put a lot of Fenris' hang-ups (particularly his [[HatesBeingTouched sometimes violent reaction to physical contact]]) and some of the party's comments, especially Isabela's [[DoubleEntendre remarks]], in a ''much'' [[HarsherInHindsight nastier light]]...
* ''VideoGame/DragonQuestHeroesRocketSlime'': What would be a fitting reward for the hero? Could he become a prince? Brilliant! But he has to marry FatBastard Gluttonella...
* ''VideoGame/{{Drakengard}}'' is ''made'' of this, quite deliberately. The hero's sister [[BrotherSisterIncest wants to jump his bones]], and one of your main characters is a pedophile. Long story short, you know there's problems when the least disturbing implied pairing is [[InterspeciesRomance the hero and his dragon partner]].
* The subtext between Zoe and [[spoiler:Alvin Peats]] in ''VideoGame/DreamfallTheLongestJourney''. He is a 200-year-old [[http://i36.tinypic.com/28c3djp.png old green blob of fat and sweat]]. Before they meet face-to-face, he already stalked Zoe through [[spoiler:the eyes of his cat minion]] and knew her body's most intimate details thanks to eating the sex dreams of [[spoiler:her ex-boyfriend]], which he very much enjoyed and brags about. When they finally meet he recognizes her by sniffing around. Then he announces she will stay in his lab, where he'll "take good care of her" and conduct experiments to uncover a secret of her power.
* In ''VideoGame/EmbricOfWulfhammersCastle'', the Duchess was the "favourite" of her uncle Greyghast, she remembers his "attentions" with horror, and one flashback shows that he admired her beauty and ''repeatedly drugged her''. It's stated once or twice [[spoiler:that he was raping her and [[WifeHusbandry planned to make her his wife]]]], but this is easy to miss and most of the time it's just creepy, creepy subtext.
* As seen in the page quote, in ''VideoGame/FalloutNewVegas''[='s=] ''Old World Blues'' expansion, after a run-in with some lobotomy-happy scientists who replace your brain with implants, and [[BrainInAJar place it in a jar]], you can later have a talk with it. And, depending on your perks, you can [[AnythingThatMoves hit on your own brain]].
** Also, Benny gets grossed out if a female Courier hits on him, since he had her shot in the head and left her for dead at the start of the game. Not that this stops him from sleeping with you if you pursue it, but it's acknowledged.
** It’s also revealed that there are people out there with a fetish for [[OurGhoulsAreCreepier ghouls, former humans whose skin has been mostly burned or melted off by radiation.]]
* A lot of ''Franchise/FireEmblem'' games have a pair of bandits that are as ugly as hell. There is usually a lot of [[CampGay romantic subtext]] in it, and are also often than not [[{{Twincest}} related, usually twins]].
** ''VideoGame/FireEmblemAwakening'' has quite a few instances of this. Notably, the player avatar can marry anyone of the opposite gender, which means you can make yourself young and then marry the oldest guy in the game. Or, more controversially, you can marry any of the second generation characters. They may be around the same age, sure, but they're actually the children of the rest of the cast. A Male Avatar can even marry Chrom's daughter Lucina. He finds out about her ''after he witnessed her birth''.
** For another non-bandit example, Valter's VillainousCrush on Eirika in ''VideoGame/FireEmblemTheSacredStones'' is extremely uncomfortable. He makes ''many'' comments implying [[IHaveYouNowMyPretty he wants to rape her]] or keep her as a SexSlave, most notably in his boss conversation with her in Chapter 15, and frequently calls her "[his] strong girl." There's also his comments towards ''[[HoYay Ephraim]]'' to a lesser degree, which many players have taken as an InterplayOfSexAndViolence.
* ''VideoGame/GuildWars2'': Palawa Joko is about as depraved as they come (just visit his harem). He is also a ''long'' past undead lich. He is also [[WeCanRuleTogether violently]] [[WomanScorned obsessed]] with the Commander. How violently obsessed? He kidnaps villagers from around his palace, glamours them to look like the Commander, and tortures them to death in assorted ways while taking it in like fine theatre. That's right, he ''practices'' to find out which method of murder would get him off the most. This holds no matter which of the races the Commander is. And then there are the small, petty things, like critiquing your choice of allies (because he would be so much more fun). Yick.
* ''VideoGame/HauntingGround'':
** [[StalkerWithACrush Riccardo]] towards Fiona. At first this might not seem so bad, since [[EvilSoundsDeep his voice seems pretty handsome]], and he looks very mysterious with the brown cloak covering his face. Until they actually ''show'' his face, and it's revealed he's a 40-50-year-old man. It gets much creepier when the player realizes he's [[spoiler:her ''uncle'', and shares the same DNA as her father]]. And he acts like a ''complete'' creep towards Fiona -- abducting her and stripping her so she has to go around the mansion ''naked'', carving a statue of her pregnant (and telling her that he's going to ''make her that way''), sticking some stick thing up her... apparently to make sure she's healthy enough to have his child and to make sure she was a virgin, out-and-out stalking her with a gun ("Fiona, why do you run? [[{{Narm}} Let me into your womb!]]"), and if he catches and kills her during gameplay, the Game Over has him ''raping her body''. The worst ending in the game is where he [[spoiler:''does'' manage to kidnap her, and confines her in a cage and apparently impregnates her. She's later shown as his wife, with him being ''very'' happy]].
** Lorenzo and Fiona. The guy is a crazy, decrepit, wheel chair bound, incredibly old man. Apparently, he wants to rape and impregnate her, too. It's so disturbing when he's revealed to be [[spoiler:her freaking ''grandfather'']]. He creeps the hell out of most people with the way he crawls around grabbing onto Fiona's legs, calling her his "dear Fiona."
* Asha in ''VideoGame/{{Iji}}'' ends up generating some [[StalkerWithACrush one sided]] FoeYay with his obsession. He considers Dan, whom he refers to as "her partner", so unimportant he thinks Iji being upset about [[spoiler:endangering/killing him]] is petty. If Iji [[SkippableBoss bypasses the duel]] he [[spoiler:leaves a suicide note that makes it sound more like she rejected a date]]. Turning on the [[SillinessSwitch Scrambler]] makes the implied crush on her even more explicit. When Asha's dialogue is more or less composed of "<3", "TOOT TOOT", "HONK" and other possibly dirty things, you can't help but think that Daniel Remar is seriously hinting at something.
* ''Franchise/KingdomHearts'':
** Axel/Roxas. Some may like it, but others... Axel is around 25, and Roxas is around 15[[note]]but in terms of actual age, Roxas was less than a year old, since, as Sora's Nobody, Roxas was created when Sora briefly turned into a Heartless near the end of the first game[[/note]]. Also, Axel is, as of the release of ''[[VideoGame/KingdomHearts358DaysOver2 358/2 Days]]'', something of a ''surrogate father'' to Roxas. WifeHusbandry leaves a ''really'' bad taste in a lot of people's mouths. And ''Birth By Sleep'' reveals he used to know someone who ''looked exactly like Roxas'' when he was a child.
** Sora/Xehanort in ''Dream Drop Distance''. Young Xehanort kept following Sora all throughout the dreams, he even wanted Sora to be his new vessel so much that he beat up Riku really badly.
** Roxas/Xion considering [[spoiler:[[OppositeSexClone she's a clone of Roxas's somebody]]. The ScrewYourself implications scares off romantic interpretations of their relationship. "I am Sora, just as I am you[Roxas]."]] Furthermore, Xion's true form seems to be [[spoiler:a featureless puppet]], considering that's what Larxene (who doesn't care about anybody) saw when she looked at her, though her true form could also simply be Xion (Kairi w/black hair) since that's how Roxas sees her, given he personally doesn't know Kairi and started to see her as Xion after bonding with her.
** Riku/"Ansem" in ''Chain of Memories''. It reached a peak with ''this'' lovely exchange:
--->'''Ansem:''' Riku... I can see your heart... \\
'''Riku:''' No...it's not. Darkness this foul could only...only be-- \\
'''Ansem:''' That's it, remember me... Let me drift into your heart... \\
'''Riku:''' Ansem! \\
'''Ansem:''' You called out my name. You have been thinking about me... You're afraid of the darkness I command. Good... The more you think of me, the closer my return draws. And when I have awoken, I will take hold... Your heart will be mine!
** Then, in ''Kingdom Hearts III,'' [[spoiler:upon his final defeat, Ansem fondly reflects on the "journey" he and Riku had together, and Riku admits that he would ''miss'' Ansem. The scene feels strangely sentimental considering this was the guy who had been obsessively harassing and attempting to groom Riku since he was ''14.'']]
* ''Franchise/MassEffect'':
** After some close listening to Harbinger's lines, a large fraction of them make it sound like he wants Shepard. Really, really bad. Even [[RoboticPsychopath Mecha]] [[EldritchAbomination Cthulhus]] want Shepard.
-->'''[[DudeShesLikeInAComa PRESERVE SHEPARD'S BODY]] [[MummiesAtTheDinnerTable IF POSSIBLE]]'''.\\
'''I KNOW YOU FEEL THIS'''.\\
'''I WILL FIND YOU AGAIN'''.
** In universe, Ashley will complain if Shepard jokes about her and [[GreenSkinnedSpaceBabe Liara]] fighting over him. Afterwards he can suggest a threesome, which promptly causes Ash to dump him.
** The second game was working on a romance with a female Shepard and Tali, but her voice actor was really uncomfortable with the idea so it was dropped.
* ''VideoGame/MermaidSwamp'': Yuuta with Yuka after the former [[spoiler: becomes [[DemonicPossession possessed]]]]. They start out as good friends and Yuuta expresses understandable concern for Yuka when she becomes ill. But slowly his innocent affection for her becomes increasingly obsessive and creepy. It's implied he was [[ADateWithRosiePalms masturbating]] to Yuka while she's lying in bed seriously ill, with her whole body grotesquely swollen, and Rin later catches him standing at Yuka's bedside, staring at her and going on about how "beautiful" Yuka is and how he much he likes her being so "docile". Rin is extremely disturbed and orders him to get away from her [[spoiler: at which point he becomes violent towards Rin]]. Considering the later revelation that Yuuta was [[spoiler: possessed by the spirits of the Tsuchida men, who were [[NightmareFetishist obsessed]] with 'mermaids', kidnapping women, keeping them in water and then preserving their bloated bodies in tanks after they died]], the whole situation becomes ''even worse'', especially as it means Yuuta wasn't even in control of himself at the time.
* ''VideoGame/MetalGearSolid4GunsOfThePatriots'': The fight between [[DepravedBisexual Vamp]] and [[{{Bishounen}} Raiden]] has some extremely disturbing homoerotic imagery: the grappling, the almost rutting-like motion when Raiden stabs himself to nail Vamp, the [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything white cyborg blood]], the [[LecherousLicking crotch-knife licking]] and stabbing which almost looks like penetration of a different sort; plus, when Raiden stabs himself and Vamp, they end up in a pose that makes it look like Vamp is spooning Raiden. And then Vamp pulls Raiden closer to plunge the blade in ''farther''.
* ''VideoGame/MobiusFinalFantasy'' has a lot of this between Sara and Wol. The beats of it work like a conventional ''FF'' romance, down to the odd InternalHomage, but due to the railroading effects of the Prophecy, both are StrangledByTheRedString to an extreme and everyone knows this, including her. She appears to regard herself as a prize, mentioning that her heart was conflicted, but then asking Wol 'will you have me?'. On top of this, Wol appears to dislike her. He shrinks away from her touches, gripes about her in private to Echo (saying an impression of her was 'too talkative') and keeps noticing in his internal narration how bad she smells, saying it's 'like rot'. Her role in propping up a system where millions of people are pulled from their worlds to die pointlessly for her certainly doesn't help.
* Waylon Park and Eddie Gluskin (aka, "The Groom") in the ''Whistleblower'' DLC of ''VideoGame/{{Outlast}}''. Gluskin wants a wife and children... by castrating Waylon to make him into the perfect bride.
* ''VideoGame/Persona5''
** There is a subset of the fandom that ships [[SadistTeacher Kamoshida]] with [[LustObject Ann]], Ryuji, or Mishima, all characters who have either been sexually harassed or physically abused by him.
** There's also [[spoiler:[[ParentalIncest Shido/Akechi]]. Shido is heavily implied to be a rapist and isn't above manipulating others to get what he wants, and has had Akechi under his thumb as his personal assassin for at least two years. Akechi's supposed UncannyFamilyResemblance with his dead mother and [[WellDoneSonGuy attitude]] towards Shido doesn't help, despite him being aware of [[DisappearedDad who Shido is.]]]]
* In ''Videogame/{{Prototype}}'', there is a really, really disturbing amount of [[FoeYay subtext]] between [[PersonOfMassDestruction Alex]] [[UnstoppableRage Mercer]] and [[PlagueMaster Elizabeth]] [[OneBadMother Greene]]. The scene when she ends up pinning his body beneath hers with their faces a hair apart does not help at all. But, quite apart from them trying sincerely to kill/eat each other, the obvious age difference (she looks nineteen, he looks about a decade older ([[spoiler:TheReveal is she's ''over fifty'' and he hasn't even lived a ''month'']]), [[HumanoidAbomination their mutual creepiness]], and that she calls herself ''[[ParentalIncest his mother]]''...well, add [[CombatTentacles tentacles]], [[TheVirus disease]], [[BodyHorror pustules]] and [[LudicrousGibs blood]], stir well and enjoy. Extra horror: [[spoiler:THEY ACTUALLY BREED. It wasn't intended by either of them but ''eeeugh'']].
* Simmon's infatuation with Ada in ''VideoGame/ResidentEvil6''. Not only is the guy a total creep, but his unhealthy obsession ultimately leads him to create, [[spoiler:a clone of her, using the body of his assistant, Carla, to do so.]]
* ''Franchise/SilentHill''
** Helen/Travis in ''VideoGame/SilentHillOrigins''. Crazy moms are ''scary''.
** ''VideoGame/SilentHill2'' has James/Pyramid Head, including the infamous licking scene (PH being a manifestation of James' subconscious only adds another layer of disturbing subtext).
** And from ''VideoGame/SilentHillShatteredMemories'', we have [[spoiler:Cheryl's implied ElectraComplex]].
* Dr. Henry West MD towards Jennifer Willis in the remake of ''VideoGame/{{Splatterhouse}}'', considering he's centuries old and sees Jennifer as a substitute for his wife.
* ''VideoGame/SonicTheHedgehog2006'' has the whole Sonic/Princess Elise subplot, with [[InterspeciesRomance a large anthropomorphic hedgehog and a realistic human princess]] acting flirty around each other, as well as [[spoiler:the infamous scene in which she kisses Sonic. Who, for the record, ''[[{{Squick}} was dead]]'' at the time.]]
* The sequel to ''VideoGame/TheSuffering'' has as one of its villains the ghost of a man who raped and killed prostitutes, and who says things like "I cut her apart so I could see her inner self." Some dialogue indicates that he's a DepravedBisexual and has his eye on the main character. Even worse, at one point he appears to audibly fantasise you as a child... specifically as a little girl.
* There is a very good reason why Van Grants of ''VideoGame/TalesOfTheAbyss'' was given the FanNickname [[MemeticMolester Master Badtouch]]. Van manipulates his student Luke's mancrush on him shamelessly, and his words when calming Luke's hyperresonance FreakOut on the boat are borderline sexual. And then, of course, there's Van's suggestion that they ''run away together.'' All of this would still almost count as HoYay...''except'' [[spoiler:Luke is a clone created by Van, and Van's only reason for keeping him around is to use him to destroy Akzeriuth. Also, Van is pretty clearly an adult, what with the memetic beard and all, and Luke, thanks to the cloning process, is mentally ''seven years old.'' MindGameShip + Pedophilic implications = No Yay.]]
* ''VisualNovel/TogainuNoChi'' features a lot of this. For example, there's one of the ending which has Keisuke ripping out Akira's guts while proclaiming that he loves Akira. He's also sporting a look that seems similar to an orgasm.
