** In ''A Price to Pay'', Hawkmoth achieves his objective of using the Wish thanks to Adrien betraying Ladybug. Emilie is resurrected - but she's already divorced Gabriel after he killed Tom Dupain and bribed a jury to get away with it, while Adrien got disowned for defending Gabriel.
** In ''Bitter Victory'', Lila manages to carry out her threat of stealing Marinette's friends and becomes the new Class President. She's promptly swarmed with how the class intends on making her their new "everyday Ladybug", and any satisfaction she might have had is wiped by the realization Marinette let her win, knowing this would be the result.

When she sends Parker a email stating that she will get back onto the Train and stay there if all of Vermillion doesn't work to earn her forgiveness, he decides to take things into his own hands once the Unown awakens, resulting in several people traumatized, her family and her own's home and reputation ruined (the latter occurring since people start piecing together just how bratty Chloe really was with her threats and demands) and Miss April and Goh nearly ending up dead from suicide. In the end, Chloe did get her wish of having things change and of having the people she hated punished, but she's left without her brother or her home and instead with the bitter truth of how much of an spiteful entitled brat she was, how much harm she caused to everyone with her behaviour (nearly resulting in several deaths) and the fact that the majority of the people now hate her because of it and won't put up with her past behaviour anymore.

* In ''Fanfic/MetalGearGreen'', after being forced to accept a deal with Snake, the African clusterfuck is painted as this to the public. An attack on villains that resulted in 10,000 heroes killed and nearly 12,000 or more being missing. In reality, the 12,000 captured heroes would later defect to the MSF when it became clear the HPSC left them to die.
* This is largely the viewpoint after the Steel Sabers arc in ''Fanfic/MyHeroAcademiaUnchainedPredator'' for both the heroes and villains. For the heroes, no dead hostages and 48 heroes requiring hospitalization (loads better than 48 dead heroes), but All Might is down to an hour a day and everyone needs therapy and the HPSC cannot cover the clusterfuck up. For the LOV, they managed to snag the blueprints for the QAH, but the Steel Sabers are wiped out, Wolfram's group is dead and now they're on the Slayer's radar, with it being clear that the Slayer intends to give a CruelAndUnusualDeath to all of them, starting with Curator and the Volcano Thieves first.

** This also applies to Lila, Nino, Alya and the rest of the classmates: she successfully convinces them to turn on Ladybug ''en masse'' and gets Marinette killed, but this comes at the cost of them all getting arrested... if they aren't just outright ''killed'' by Adrien in order to bring Marinette back.

* ''[[Fanfic/HeroClassCivilWarfare Danger Days]]'': Izuku and Bakugou pass the final exam against All Might. But the victory is hollow for Bakugou, who put his pride and spite over the self-discipline, proper judgement, and teamwork for which the exam was actually testing, ultimately performing so poorly that Izuku had to trick him into cooperating so as not to fail. Izuku and Bakugou both technically passed, but only Izuku succeeded on his own merits, while Bakugou's "pass" just put a spotlight on his failures.
