----









* In the ''WesternAnimation/MiraculousLadybug'' fic ''Fanfic/SpotsOff'', Marinette is publicly exposed as Ladybug after being caught transforming on Alya's livestream, and is soon on the verge of a breakdown due to fear of the consequences of her screw-up (eg, her friends and family being targeted by Hawkmoth). But when Chat Noir visits her, he repeatedly insists that she doesn't have to go through this alone, eventually getting through to her.
-->'''Chat''': (''wrapping her up in a tight hug after she bursts into tears'') You don’t have to punish yourself for this. Even if it was your fault, which I will personally never believe it was. No one's asking you to handle it alone. (''pulls back, presses his forehead to hers and looks her in the eyes'') We all ''want'' to help you. Do you believe me?
-->'''Marinette''': (''meets his gaze and sees the unconditional support and love in his eyes'') I mean… I ''guess''…
-->'''Chat''': (''laughing quietly'') You guess?
-->'''Marinette''': (''gives him a smile'') Fine. I believe you.
-->'''Chat''': (''returns it'') Good. Because you aren’t alone, Marinette. And we can deal with this, together.
* ''Fanfic/TheNightUnfurls'': For a man who prefers solitude, [[TheHermit Kyril]] notably [[InvertedTrope inverts]] this trope, painting a more nuanced take of the "loner" archetype: rather than having someone say to him that he is not alone, it is Kyril ''himself'' who says to someone that he is not alone.

You're not alone."''

** In chapter 1, after having a long talk, Asuka and Shinji realize they are not alone, since they are alike. They are overjoyed.
** In chapter 4 Asuka declares this triumphantly to Rei
--->'''Asuka''':''"Well… yeah. I did. But it's a lot harder to blame you for acting that way now that I know you're drugged like this. That's why I reacted so strongly… my step-mother tried something like that with pills when I was younger. I know what it's like. It's not like I think you would kill yourself or something just because Commander Ikari ordered you to or such."''\\
'''Rei''':''"If I was ordered to do so, I would."''\\
'''Asuka''':''"What?! Are you crazy? Why?"''\\
'''Rei''':''"He has raised me for years. He cares for me. If he gave that order, I would trust he had a necessary reason for it. [...] …He is all I have."''\\
'''Asuka''':''"Jesus fuck, Wondergirl! Don't ever do that! Kill yourself just because you were told to?! I mean… Gott! Never! We're soldiers, yeah, and we could die anytime, but never just on someone's say-so! Make it for a reason worth it! Look at baka-Shinji! He didn't jump into a volcano because someone ordered him to! He did it against orders, because he thought I was worth risking his life for!" 'And don't you ever risk yourself like that again, you stupid, brave idiot of mine. I love you so Gottdamn much. My damn martyr baka-Shinji…' "He'd do the same for you, just like he said, and… and so would I! Commander Ikari's not 'all you have'! You're not alone! You, and me, and Shinji, we all look out for each other because there's no one else who can in a battle!"''
** Later in that chapter Asuka tells Shinji she is not alone anymore thanks to him:
--->'''Asuka''':''"Would you want to be like Wondergirl? If your father had raised you, you might have ended up like her: a drugged robot ready to die when he orders you to. I… If you had acted l like that, if you'd been raised that way, do you think Misato would have taken you in, that you'd be living here, that we'd… be together? If you acted like her, I'd never have kissed you, and we wouldn't be lying in bed like this right now." She pulled his head down to hers for a kiss. "I like you the way you are, my baka. You're just like me. You can understand me and my pains because you suffered them too. I'm glad you're here and the man you are, Shinji. I was as alone as you, before. And if you weren't here, I still would be."''
