[[AC:''WesternAnimation/KungFuPanda'']]

* ''[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/52683307 "Elements of Justice: A Hollow Diamond]]'' has the title be dropped in the narration.

** From "Mission: S'''Calvin:''' Come on guys! Mission: Socrates is now in effect!

-->"You really should've let him kill me, because now I'm gonna die my way! Or am I? Even if despair's last resort has failed, that doesn't mean you've won just yet! After all, [[spoiler: Junko]] still has a successor!"
* ''Fanfic/ThreePointShot'' gets its title from the point at which the fic diverges from canon- Kokichi says this line in the first scene after picking up the shot put ball and throwing it onto the bookshelf, [[spoiler:enabling the group to realize that Kaede didn't kill Rantaro]]. [[BookEnds It's also repeated as the last line of dialogue]].

-->'''Slay:''' "It is time to plant The Tree...of Might...the Christmas Tree of Might..."\\
'''Jinga & Beru:''' "Ohhhhh...[[LampshadeHanging title drop]]!"

* ''Brilliancy,'' the second installment of the ''Fanfic/ElementalChessTrilogy'', gets a Title Drop in Grumman's final line of dialogue. He remarks to Madame Christmas that if they play the game well, it "could be a true brilliancy." (A ''brilliancy'' is a game of chess which is played with exceptional finesse and skill.)

--->Give me someone who can tell me you weren’t there raising dead things.

* ''Fanfic/DoYouBelieveInFairies'': In chapter 4, Evelyn asks Renee “Do you believe in fairies? In the magical tree and how much Castanet is connected to it?".

-->"You know what they say, 'Close only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades."

* ''Fanfic/ADifferentLesson'' technically drops its title right with the opening blurb ("Can a father undo his past mistakes? Perhaps, if the snow leopard can be taught...A Different Lesson"), but it is properly referenced at least three times in the fic itself--the first time during the training on Wu Dan where it emphasizes what Tai Lung has to do differently and how he should view the world and his place in it if he wants to be a hero, the last time at the very end when he is reflecting back on everything he's gone through. The second time, in a sinister variation, is spoken by the BigBad, implying [[TheseAreThingsManWasNotMeantToKnow what he will offer]] if Tai Lung [[WeCanRuleTogether joins him]].

* In ''Fanfic/TheNightmareHouse'', the end of the prologue is "Welcome to... the Nightmare House".

-->'''Marinette:''' "She knows someone with a lot of [[CelebrityLie big connections]]. It's all about who you know, right?"

'''Izuku:''' ''[with a bitter smile]'' You know the saying. Keep your friends close. ''[barely a murmur]'' As for your enemies...
* ''[[Fanfic/KingMHA King]]'' draws its title from the Hero Name Katsuki originally wanted to give himself: King Explosion Murder. Izuku [[IronicEcho throws this name in his face]] while confronting him. The part omitted from the title reflects how [[spoiler:Katsuki murdered a man, and how U.A. is covering up the incident]].

* ''Fanfic/{{Statistic}}'': When Izuku mysteriously fails to show up at [[SuckySchool Aldera Middle School]] one day, the [[ApatheticTeacher apathetic]] and [[SadistTeacher openly biased]] teachers suggest that he's become 'just another statistic' and [[DrivenToSuicide taken his own life]]. Toshinori, who's been working undercover as a new hire, recognizes this as an anti-Quirkless dogwhistle.

* ''Fanfic/AddressUnknownRemedy'' has Derpy give this monologue after Twilight agrees to search for a spell that will fix her eyes, despite admitting there may not be one. "You know, occasionally when I’m delivering mail I get a letter addressed to a place that doesn’t exist; maybe somepony moved, or maybe somepony miswrote the address. When we get those letters, we just send them back to where they came from and move on to the next destination. There is nothing we can do in the Post Office to make that address appear. Maybe that same thing will happen with fixing my eyes. Maybe there is no answer; maybe there is no fix. It doesn’t mean we can’t look, but if it’s not there, then it’s just an 'address unknown'. If no answer exists, then I can move on without any regrets."

--> '''Maud Pie:''' You hit a rock.

* ''Fanfic/TheStarsWillAidTheirEscape'' has Twilight drop the title while [[spoiler: fighting off the insanity [[DrivenToMadness inflicted]] on her and]] piecing together [[BigBad Herald's]] plan to release [[SealedEvilInACan the Outer Gods]].

** As is usual with this trope, the writing on the wall is actually very significant, even though Daring Do is absolutely right about it being intended to scare away tomb robbers. [[spoiler: Too bad the reason it was trying to scare away tomb robbers is because it isn't a tomb, but a building meant to contain something very dangerous. The writing was not a curse, but a warning as to what would happen to those who went inside.]]

* Not long after [[CharacterNarrator Parasite_Ib]] started narrating ''Fanfic/FortuneLoverTGSBetaSaruRipTPlusEng0Point75SincereDotZip'', she mentions the titular file she downloaded. She then followed it with a detailed explanation of the naming system used in pirated ROM files. (Long story short, she experienced a ''very'' strange GameMod)

-->''"But on the advice and trust of my beloved baka, I'm willing to trust you not to take this to NERV."''

-->'''Asuka''':''"It's a do-over, [...] It's a motherfucking do-over! [...] I'm gonna do it right this time,"''

* ''[[Fanfic/ReadTheFinePrintEvangelion Read the Fine Print]]'': At the end of the first chapter, titled "Just Call Me Agatha", Asuka reveals Shinji she is his childhood pen pal by saying "Hello Shinji. Just call me Agatha."

-->"It's official... this [[{{Pun}} bites]]..."

* In chapter 44 of [[https://archiveofourown.org/works/42247950/chapters/115010626 There's No One Like You]], Luz proposes to Amity at their sisters' wedding. Amity accepts, saying:
-->"Luz, there's no one quite like you."

--> "She couldn't keep this paradise from her people any longer. Shinmyoumaru needed to bring the inchling race outside, and let them live under the sun’s warm light, eternally bathed in the brilliant light of day."

'''Saul''': "Well then, you Better Call Saul."

* In ''Fanfic/{{Frenzy}}'', Shadow tells Sonic "You're in a frenzy!" when he's unable to stop Sonic's mania.

* ''[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/45456406 Statistic]]'': When Izuku mysteriously fails to show up at [[SuckySchool Aldera Middle School]] one day, the [[ApatheticTeacher apathetic]] and [[SadistTeacher openly biased]] teachers suggest that he's become 'just another statistic' and [[DrivenToSuicide taken his own life]].
