8----
9[[AC:Crossovers]]
10* In ''Fanfic/AvengerGoddess'', Diana attempts to convince a Grootslang (a giant monster that's basically an elephant combined with a serpent) to stand down after it reveals that it attacked a nearby village only because the locals destroyed its last clutch of eggs. However, the Grootslang will not be satisfied unless all humans are destroyed, even though it already killed the people who took its eggs.
11* In ''Fanfic/ChristianHumberReloaded''[[note]]A crossover involving too many fictional works to list here[[/note]]:
12** Vash kills a hunter for setting a trap that he stepped in [[{{Hypocrite}} while hunting]] that did not even harm him because it broke on his leg. To make matters worse, the trap [[FridgeLogic may not have even been intended for him]].
13** He also plans to "wipe out (Soku's) entire gene pool" for turning him in to the police. For the record, wiping out her gene pool would involve wiping out ''the entire human race.'' Apparently, for him, it just means killing her extended family.
14*** After he gets shot in the shoulder after accidentally teleporting to the Super Bowl, he kills 6 million people just to prove a point about how dangerous angry Horteka are.
15* Volt reveals in ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/12330403/4/Conquering-Eostia Conquering Eostia]]'' that the reason he's raised an army to take over the titular continent and turn all its women into [[SexSlave Sex Slaves]] is because his band of mercenaries were sent on a SuicideMission by one of the kingdoms to defeat another kingdom. Naruto agrees with Volt's desire for revenge on the people who hired him, but can't justify such horrific extremes and vows to stop his former comrade.
16* In ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/9060802/1/Days-of-Futures-Past-What-Does-That-Mean-It-Kinda-Sounds-Sexy Days of Futures Past What Does That Mean It Kinda Sounds Sexy]]'', Kurama tells Robin that someone once insulted ramen in Naruto's presence, so Naruto retaliated by tying them up to a Prius and throwing the person off a bridge. Kurama doesn't say if the Prius was used to suspend the person off the bridge and dangle them upside down or if Naruto threw the car afterward to help sink that person to the water bed below. Most likely the latter due to the fact that Naruto doesn't like Prius vehicles for some reason.
17* ''Fanfic/DeathNoteEquestria'': Twilight, as Kira, kills criminals of various calibers -- her main targets are {{Karma Houdini}}s and those she considers unrepentant -- so a pony with a life-long history of minor offences might also be offed. Second Kira [[spoiler:(Fluttershy)]], meanwhile, openly kills those who speak against Kira.
18* ''Fanfic/DontLookBack'': Intentionally invoked. Emperor Belos has a bounty for 1 million snails placed on [[spoiler:Amity's]] head for fighting back against coven guards. However, [[spoiler:Amity]] only acted in self-defense as the guards were threatening to arrest her, Luz and Marcy just for talking to Eda.
19* In ''Fanfic/AnExtraordinaryJourney'', it's noted that the last person who took the final cup of blue Jell-O had to spend a week at the Alpha site while Major Carter calmed down.
20* For defying their prophecy and "embarrassing" the Powers The Be, [[Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer Xander Harris]] is sentenced to be sent to a world without life in ''[[http://www.tthfanfic.org/Story-26735/OlBear+Hellmouth+Trooper.htm Hellmouth Trooper]]''. Fortunately, someone else steps in and instead he's sent to [[Franchise/StarWars Kamino]].
21* ''Fanfic/InfinityTrainSeekerOfCrocus'': Dr. Yung decides that, because Chloe talked smack about how there's no way he can return to the Pokémon world with his Mirage System, that she deserves to die ''via all his Mirage Pokémon turning her into a bloody smear''. [[spoiler:Were it not for the DeusExMachina that was Chloe's cloak -- literally since that cloak was created by a god -- she would've been a goner.]]
22* One chapter in ''Fanfic/InvaderFranny'' (a crossover between the Creator/{{Nickelodeon}} cartoon ''WesternAnimation/InvaderZim'' and ''Literature/FrannyKStein'') has Franny K. Stein create a monster to maim and kill several of her classmates for teasing her over being Dib's "girlfriend".
23* At least suggested in ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/6795358/1/A-Lifetime-of-Waiting A Lifetime of Waiting]]''; when [[Film/DriveAngry John Milton]] is confronted by [[Film/GhostRiderDuology Johnny Blaze]], after Blaze assesses Milton while he's in the form of the Ghost Rider, Blaze informs the Accountant that Milton may have killed dozens of people and committed various lesser sins, but he never knowingly harmed the innocent, drawing a line between the idea of Milton as a sinner and the idea that Milton is ''evil'', at least suggesting that Milton will be released from Hell eventually.
24* In ''Fanfic/TheLittleStark'', from any viewpoint, Ariel's fate is this, as she was forever banished away from her homeland, country, and family just because she wandered into grounds she didn't know were private property. From a mermaid viewpoint, Ariel was also ''mutilated''. Even worse, she was a little girl (only around eight) when it happened, so it was only natural for her to be a little foolish.
25* ''Fanfic/LokiAgentOfDoomgard'': The Loki of Battleworld's Paradise domain would narrate any Loki dead for ''entering that domain''. One walks in then drops dead. No other provocation needed, no questions asked.
26* ''Fanfic/TheManyDatesOfDannyFenton'': When Paulina meets Clover, Samantha, and Alex and learns that Alex is dating Danny, Paulina assumes that Alex is only dating Danny to humiliate him later. Alex tells her no and leaves only saying it was not nice to meet her. Despite only saying a few words to her, Paulina joins up with Dash to humiliate both Danny and Alex.
27* ''Fanfic/MyBravePonyStarfleetMagic'':
28** Titan got his face disfigured in his past and was shunned by everyone for his hideous looks afterwards. Years later, he kills his entire species and starts to destroy parts of the multiverse for no other reason than that it is fun. [[spoiler:His former fiancee,]] Serpentari, also has a similar motive.
29** The author wrote the entire fanfic, which insults bronies as being losers who dare to believe in positive things, because one single brony made fun of him.
30*** [[spoiler:In the sequel, he makes Cadance suffer, just because he does not like the fact that in the show, she got happily married.]]
31** Frosteye had been trapped in a frozen cavern for a century by Princess Celestia due to being a mocker.
32* In ''Fanfic/NeitherABirdNorAPlaneItsDeku'', a four-year-old Bakugou thinks it's perfectly reasonable to use his Explosion Quirk to beat the crap out of another kid for taking the last cupcake. Izuku, having discovered his "Quirk", is emboldened to stop him. Unfortunately, Izuku [[DoesNotKnowHisOwnStrength didn't know how strong he was]] and accidentally threw Bakugou out of the park, past the road, and through a concrete wall, nearly killing him.
33* ''Fanfic/ThePrayerWarriors'' often engage in this, particularly by deciding that anyone who disagrees with them deserves to die. One example is Idiosy, for whom hacking into the author's account is cited as an ''in-universe'' reason for having [[Literature/PercyJacksonAndTheOlympians Rachael]] kill him and burn down his house, killing all his wives and guards.
34* In ''Fanfic/{{Renegade}}'', the Global Defense Initative uses this as a basic part of their military doctrine. If someone fucks with a GDI colony, their response is to utterly destroy whoever attacked them with overwhelming force. This doctrine lead to them obliterating the pirate bases at Torfan from orbit, and results in full-scale war with the Batarian Hegemony due to them supporting attacks on human colonies. One Citadel politician accuses GDI of [[MakeAnExampleOfThem "making an example"]] out of the batarians, which GDI agrees with.
35* In ''Fanfic/TheStoryToEndAllStories'', the villain was forgotten by the rest of fiction, so he decided to deal with his frustration by kickstarting the Apocalypse.
36* In ''[[http://www.tthfanfic.org/story.php?no=31044 Things Unseen, Things Unknown, and Things Yet to Be]]'', [[OnlySaneMan Xander]] questions Willow's decision to keep an employee whom she knows full well is spying on them. Willow responds by cutting him off from all Council resources while he's on a mission to an area that's already cost them six people. In other words, she's risks the death of a friend she's known for roughly forty years because he disagreed with her.
37* ''Fanfic/ThinkingInLittleGreenBoxes'': [[ComicBook/XMen Beast]] discovers that [[Literature/HarryPotter Harry]] has a mutant power, but instead of what was previously thought to be his power (talking to snakes), it's...[[WhatKindOfLamePowerIsHeartAnyway hair regeneration (as in, he'll never go grey or bald)]]. [[ChromeDomePsi Professor X]], in response to this news, [[ComicBook/{{Onslaught}} becomes Onslaught]].
38* In ''Tricksters and Gods'', Loki (resurrected as Harry Potter) is a big fan of this:
39** After realizing that Ginny stole the diary in book 2 (and worse, has a crush on him!) he assaults her, carving "Thief" on to her back, and warns her that he will ruin her entire family financially if she doesn't leave him alone.
40** After Voldemort's resurrection, he immediately assumes that Dumbledore plans to martyr him and runs away. Years later, he dismantles the entire wizarding world, imprisoning, institutionalizing, and/or bankrupting various families, most of whom had probably never even spoken to Dumbledore.
41* ''WebAnimation/TurnaboutStorm'':
42** Murder is shown as a very rare and serious crime in [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic Equestria]], and the punishment for the guilty is banishment... [[TheNotSoHarmlessPunishment to the Moon]] [[HurlItIntoTheSun or the Sun]]. After hearing this, [[Franchise/AceAttorney Phoenix]] immediately takes it as going too far.
43-->''"[[FirstPersonSmartass Geez, being sent to the Sun is 'Going easy on someone'?]] Remind me never to do anything bad in this place."''
44** Then there's Trixie, who took the job as the prosecutor as an opportunity to get revenge on Twilight and the mane 6 in general for revealing her as a fraud. Although it's implied later that that is not Trixie's main reason for wanting to get back at Twilight, [[spoiler:as indicated by the presence of black psyche-locks when asked about it]].
45** In [[PlayedForLaughs a less serious note]], Rarity wants Phoenix to sue the post office [[ComicalOverreacting for not having enough pens]].
46* In ''FanFic/WithPearlAndRubyGlowing'':
47** [[WesternAnimation/TheEmperorsNewGroove Yzma]] sells Kuzco to a HumanTrafficking ring because his father fired her.
48** [[WesternAnimation/LegendOfTheThreeCaballeros Sheldgoose]] arranges for Panchito to be gang-raped and nearly murdered as punishment for [[EvilIsPetty being an annoying neighbour]].
49** [[WesternAnimation/TheGreatMouseDetective Ratigan]] is angry that Basil didn't respond when Ratigan assaulted him before, so he forces Dawson at gunpoint to assault Basil again.
50** [[WesternAnimation/MeetTheRobinsons Goob]] steals Cornelius' prototype car and later is easily persuaded by Ratigan to rape Wilbur as RevengeByProxy for his long-ago lost baseball game. Ratigan is taking his own Revenge By Proxy on Cornelius at the same time, for refusing his advances.
51** [[WesternAnimation/TotalDrama Courtney]]'s classmates gang-rape her to punish her for outshining them.
52** [[WesternAnimation/CatsDontDance Darla Dimple]] frames Danny for molesting her, going so far as to [[NauseaFuel injure herself with a hairbrush handle]] to sell the illusion better, just because he drew attention away from her.
53** [[WesternAnimation/TheLoudHouse Lola]] tells her parents Lori molested her, because Lori slapped her when Lola spilled her nail varnish. JustifiedTrope as Lola is only six and didn't have a clear idea of how bad the accusation was, thinking Lori would just be grounded.
54** [[WesternAnimation/FairlyOddParents Vicky and Ricky]] rape Luan Loud and put a humiliating video of her online because she made fun of the fact that they look alike and are dating.
55* [[VideoGame/XCOMEnemyUnknown X-COM]] in ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/8861606/1/XCOM-Second-Contact XCOM: Second Contact]]'' outdoes the GDI in this. The Relay 314 Incident? X-COM's counterattack on the Turian patrol involved [[CurbStompBattle 400 fighters, a dozen cruisers, and two dreadnoughts]]. Mindoir? Two words, "Chryssalid strikes".
56* In [[https://unmaskedagain.tumblr.com/post/189175216157/marinette-iron-mans-minion-rising this]] ''WesternAnimation/MiraculousLadybug''/''Franchise/MarvelCinematicUniverse'' crossover, several Avengers eat the macarons Marinette made for herself, despite her clearly labeling them. In response, she (with help from her fellow Stark interns) steals items belonging to the guilty party, then starts kidnapping them one by one, shrinking them down, and pitting them against a vicious hamster named Sir Grumpy Paws. She only releases them once Steve finally gives into her demands (four dozen macarons, along with various other assorted foods).
57
58[[AC:''Franchise/AceAttorney'']]
59* In ''Fanfic/DirtySympathy'', [[BadBoss Kristoph]] pours a cup of boiling tea on Apollo and breaks the cup on his ''head'' for drinking it at his (Apollo's) desk. Then he [[FauxAffablyEvil threatens to kill Apollo for the crime of showing up to work early]], all while delivering it in a polite and calm tone of voice.
60
61[[AC:''WesternAnimation/{{Aladdin}}'']]
62* In ''Fanfic/QueenOfDiamonds'', Jasmine feels that Aladdin faced this when she learns that he was first arrested for theft at seven years old, when he had only stolen food to avoid starving when he had lost everything.
63
64[[AC:''Literature/{{Animorphs}}'']]
65* In ''[[Fanfic/{{Eleutherophobia}} Ghost in the Shell]]'', Tom recalls a time when he saw Visser One shoot a man in the leg and leave him to be eaten by Taxxons because he accidentally brewed her coffee wrong.
66
67[[AC:''Series/{{Arrow}}'']]
68* In the series ''Fanfic/{{Legacy|Series}}'', BigBad Joseph Risdon is seriously pissed off that Team Arrow put him behind bars sixteen years ago, and he intends to make Oliver and Felicity pay by visiting everything he suffered in prison on their children.
69* ''Fanfic/TheseFoolishThings'': Learning that Laurel still has one of Oliver's old sweaters prompts Felicity to hack into Oliver's accounts dating back to his teens, pick out anything that ''might'' have been a gift to Laurel, and go to her flat to basically demand all of these gifts back. Putting aside how gross a violation that is of Oliver's privacy when he and Felicity don't have a joint bank account, as Thea points out some of those gifts could have easily been for her or Moira rather than Laurel, and in any case Felicity has no right to go to those levels.
70* ''Fanfic/WhatItTakes'':
71** While Quentin frames his actions as his way of "protecting" Laurel, in the end he's really doing this to punish her for keeping Sara's death a secret from him. This "punishment" includes outing her as the Black Canary, forcing her on the run, having his officers hunt her down, [[spoiler:and eventually issuing a shoot-on-sight order on her]]. Unsurprisingly, absolutely no one is impressed with his actions, especially when they figure out what his real motivations are.
72** Darhk's grudge against the League of Assassins is so strong that [[spoiler:he decides to ''[[NukeEm nuke it]]'' out of spite, even though the main reason he hated them so much, his "old friend" aka the previous Ra's al Ghul, is dead and no longer in charge of the place]].
73
74[[AC:''WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender'']]
75* ''Webcomic/HowIBecameYours'' has several instances of this. The first is Zuko discovering that Mai hid evidence of Katara's pregnancy, which he takes as an opportunity to confront her, ''[[DomesticAbuse throw her to the floor]]'' and declare he never loved her (which saddens her to the point of crying). Then Katara [[BloodyMurder bloodbends Mai to death]] because Mai caused her to miscarry. Admittedly, Mai ''was'' trying to kill her at the time, and had just killed Katara's sister-in-law Azula[[note]]By virtue of Katara getting together with Azula's brother, and Sokka falling in love with Azula. It's a long story, but she had a HeelFaceTurn[[/note]], but Katara could just as easily have used bloodbending to incapacitate Mai and send her off to trial.
76* ''Fanfic/ImprisonedThisTimeForReal'': If the guards at the Waterbender Prison catch a prisoner talking, that equals a broken limb for the prisoner in question. All of the waterbender prisoners, Katara included, have all of their limbs broken multiple times over the course of the story.
77
78[[AC:''Franchise/{{Batman}}'']]
79* In the ''[[Fanfic/TheCATverse [=CATverse=]]]'' story ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5999604/1/Small_World Small World]]'', the Scarecrow [[WouldHurtAChild abducts a child]] and terrorizes her, having already murdered her mother and [[HarmfulToMinors terrified her into insanity with the mutilated corpse]]. Why? She is his half-sister, and their mother raised her instead of him. Earlier in the series, in ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3352858/1/Moose_Tracks_And_Thankful_Men Moose Tracks and Thankful Men]]'', a kid [[BullyingADragon makes fun of him]]. Crane murders him outright "on principle".
80
81[[AC:''VideoGame/BaldursGateIII'']]
82* [[https://tragedybunny.tumblr.com/post/728910281451962368/look-i-know-this-is-an-awful-quality-meme This]] post jokingly proposes that Cazador turned Astarion into a vampire spawn and made his life a living hell because in his capacity as a magistrate, Astarion once served Cazador a fine for a building code violation.
83
84[[AC:''TabletopGame/CallOfCthulhu'']]
85* ''Fanfic/OldManHenderson'' started a personal crusade against the local cult of Hastur. By the end of it, he's burned down most of the cult's buildings, manipulated them into an EnemyCivilWar with the local cult of Cthulhu, mopped up the remaining members of both cults once they realized he was to blame for everything and teamed up against him, had most of his allies die (the majority of which were either directly or indirectly killed by him), and committed a HeroicSacrifice in order to [[DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu permanently kill Hastur]]. Why? Because he thought they stole his lawn gnomes. [[NotMeThisTime Which they didn't even do]]. He donated them to charity, then [[TheStoner got high]], and forgot about it.
86
87[[AC:''ComicStrip/CalvinAndHobbes'']]
88* The reason the main protagonists of ''Fanfic/CalvinAndHobbesTheSeries'' stop [[MadScientist Dr.]] [[StupidEvil Brainstorm]] yet again? He shut down [=DirectTV's=] satellite.
89
90[[AC:''Literature/ACertainMagicalIndex'']]
91* ''Fanfic/ACertainDrollHiveMind'': PlayedForLaughs. Misaka-11111, who has minimal understanding of exaggeration and euphemism, is rather confused when the angry magician keeps yelling threats.
92-->"I am having a really bad day!" she shouts at us. "You have one last chance to get out of my way, or I will ''destroy you all!''"\
93I am also having a bad day. However, I have not threatened to destroy anyone. We shall investigate as to whether this is a traditional human response to having bad days. We do not think it is. We suspect the human population would be considerably lower if it was traditional to commit omnicide in response to experiencing a bad day.
94
95[[AC:''Anime/CodeGeass'']]
96* In ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/12201158/2/Darwin Darwin]]'', V.V. has Marianne assassinated and plots the murders of her children for the crime of arguing against Britannia going to war with the E.U., which would hinder his and Charles' plan to create their "world without lies".
97
98[[AC:''Franchise/{{Danganronpa}}'']]
99* In ''[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/25123591/chapters/60870241 Kazuichi Strangelove or I How Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Time Loop]]'', Kazuichi's efforts at preventing the murders are not unnoticed by Monokuma. After he arranges for the Despair-Disease infected Mikan to be locked in the cottage, Monokuma changes the effect of the Despair Disease so that if Kazuichi faints from catching the disease, four of his classmates will die. He then has the disease infect everyone but the mechanic to have him watch them succumb to its effects. [[spoiler:It was only thanks to [[BigDamnHero Alter-Ego]] that the students were able to survive]].
100
101[[AC:''Franchise/DragonAge'']]
102* Most of the main cast in ''Fanfic/DragonAgeTheCrownOfThorns'', and some others, feel that the DN protagonist [[spoiler:lashes out at Isolde a bit too strongly]], although, true enough, she did [[spoiler:outright accuse him that he doesn't mind killing children]]. He [[spoiler:makes her cry with TheReasonYouSuckSpeech and even deliberately makes her think he is going to/did kill Connor]]. Fortunately, he'd only [[spoiler:gone upstairs to give the kid a hug and a SoProudOfYou, plus talk to the demon possessing him face to face]].
103** When Connor [[spoiler:is finally exorcized]], the DN gets quite angry at [[spoiler:Alim's impersonation of the Grim Reaper]] and, instead of congratulating him and whatnot, drags the mage over to give him a WhatTheHellHero? rant in private. Alim counters it by calling him out on how he reacted too harshly, showing off his own GuileHero traits by perceiving one of Raonar's biggest regrets.
104
105[[AC:''Manga/FairyTail'']]
106* A [[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/10791036/1/What-Chapter-372-of-Fairy-Tail-should-have-been rewritten]] [[http://mrshoneydew.deviantart.com/art/What-Chapter-372-of-Fairy-Tail-Should-Have-Been-524338116 version]] of Chapter 372 where Erza responds to being stripped naked, having your sensitivity to pain heightened, and then getting whipped like crazy and electrocuted by chopping Kyouka's arms off, smashing her face against a stone floor multiple times, ripping open her stomach and leaving her organs exposed, ripping out a few of her organs, including one of her LUNGS!, squashing her shoulder bones like tin cans, more electrocution, and horrifically '''[[EyeScream ripping out Kyouka's eyes]]'''! Jesus! Even as payback for ColdBloodedTorture, this is overkill!
107* There was also a fanfiction [[https://www.deviantart.com/mrshoneydew/art/What-Chapter-321-of-Fairy-Tail-should-have-been-717497308 rewriting the 321st]] [[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/12742112/1/What-Chapter-321-of-Fairy-Tail-should-have-been chapter of the manga]], Erza put ''Minerva'' on the recieving end of this. She imposed Disproportionate Retribution on Lucy when she brutally beat her in the Navel Battle for refusing to give up even without her Celestial Spirit Keys, but boy did Erza wreak it back on her tenfold here! How does Erza punish Minerva for beating Lucy within an inch of his life, stabbing Kagura, and kidnapping Millianna, draining her magic, and clawing at her back? Easy. Erza chopped off one of Minerva's arms and one of her legs, gouged her eyes out, [[Manga/{{Hellsing}} Zorin Blitz]] style, [[{{Fingore}} ripped off Minerva's fingers on her other hand with her teeth,]] one by one, and ''[[IAmAHumanitarian swallowing]]'' them, clawing at Minerva's back like she did with Millianna, and then, to top it all off, used a sword to '''rape''' Minerva! '''Erza!! Scarlet!! Raped!! Minerva!!'''
108
109[[AC:''VideoGame/FinalFantasy'']]
110* In ''[[Fanfic/ShinraHighSoldier Shinra High]]'' and ''[[Fanfic/ShinraHighSoldier Shinra SOLDIER]]'', Julia and Sephiroth are big fans of this. In response to being attacked by half the football team (even though the football players lost spectacularly), Julia and Sephiroth get revenge by blowing up the football field during a game, openly wounding players and spectators in the process.
111** During the Wutai arc, Julia tortures both her victims due to minor slights. Gorki, for daring to call Sephiroth a woman, is tortured until she screams, which includes cutting off both her arms and crushing her legs with Demi. Staniv breaks Julia's katana, so Julia paralyzes her, cuts out her eyeball and forces her to eat it, and then mutilates her so she can bleed to death.
112
113[[AC:''VideoGame/FiveNightsAtFreddys'']]
114* ''WebAnimation/TheMarionetteTriesToListenToHisMusicbox'': The Marionette is quick to resort to violence against people who disturb him while he listens to his music box. When Freddy honks his own nose to the song, the Marionette points a gun at him until he backs off; when Balloon Boy laughs to the beat, the Marionette tackles the kid to the ground and throws a ''nuclear bomb'' at him.
115* ''Fanfic/YouSeemAcquaintedWithThoseDoors'': [[VillainProtagonist Charles Cooper]] murdered five children when he found out they had tampered with the animatronics he was building.
116
117[[AC:''ComicStrip/ForBetterOrForWorse'']]
118* ''Fanfic/TheNewRetcons'':
119** Gavin Caine opposed Tracey's campaign to investigate [[spoiler:whether Millborough being built on a former nuclear test site had an adverse effect on the population]]. Why? To get back at his son Anthony through Tracey and her husband Gordon, first for Anthony working for them instead of him, then for opposing his expansion plans for being outdated.
120** [[spoiler:Kortney Krelbutz wanted revenge on Moira and Elly, the former for firing her, the latter for not hiring her back. (Never mind that she was busted stealing.) She steals Elly's husband John from her (not that she ever knew, given her untimely death), inherited his millions when he died, then used that to buy out the store she was fired from and fire Moira in turn, then bought out most of Millborough to have it absorbed into Greater Scarborough.]]
121
122[[AC:''Anime/GirlsUndPanzer'']]
123* In ''Fanfic/{{Turtles}}'', St. Gloriana apparently inflicts this on people who are rude to them. After the student council decides to challenge St. Gloriana to a match despite Miho and Koume ([[PointOfDivergence who is an Oarai student in this fic]]) advising them to choose an easier opponent, Miho warns the student council that St. Gloriana is one of the only Power Five schools that will deign to have a practice match with Oarai, and since St. Gloriana sees Oarai as their inferiors, Oarai must show St. Gloriana the utmost respect (e.g. using "-dono" on the St. Gloriana top brass). If Oarai complies, St. Gloriana might go easy on them, but if not, St. Gloriana will field the Tortoise and crush them.
124
125[[AC:''Franchise/{{Godzilla}}'']]
126* ''Fanfic/AbraxasHrodvitnon'': [[Characters/AbraxasHrodvitnonKingGhidorah Ghidorah]]'s [[MultipleHeadCase middle head]] didn't appreciate Dr. Graham ''unknowingly'' stirring up some of his worst memories of Ghidorah's past when she oversaw a research facility studying Ghidorah's frozen body. What was the middle head's idea of payback? [[Film/GodzillaKingOfTheMonsters2019 Eating Graham alive as soon as Ghidorah got out of the ice]], bringing her mind and soul back to life in her broken and half-digested body inside Ghidorah's body, and giving the left head (San) standing orders to mutate and regenerate Vivienne's body with Ghidorah's own enzymes until her body came back as a [[ArtificialHybrid human-Ghidorah fused monster]]. The middle head specifically did the latter part because he was hoping that Vivienne being turned into the very monster which psychically haunted her dreams for years would cause her ''immense'' psychological pain.
127
128[[AC:''Franchise/HarryPotter'']]
129* In ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13617073/7/The-Boy-Who-Planned The Boy Who Planned]]'' Ron casts the Killing Curse at Draco for saying he'll never get a job with the Chudley Cannons.
130* ''Fanfic/TheChoicesThatMakeUs'':
131** Sirius playing with a Muggle neighbor and his dog causes [[spoiler: his father to murder that neighbor]].
132** When Narcissa overhears a classmate insinuate that she's promiscuous, she pretends to seduce him, leading him on with the promise of sex while deliberately sabotaging his friendships and academic performance for weeks before publicly rebuking and humiliating him.
133* In ''Fanfic/DaphneGreengrassAndTheBoyWhoLived'', Umbridge issuing a lifetime Quidditch ban on Harry and the Weasley twins is more clearly presented as this, as in this version of events Harry never even attacked Malfoy beyond diversionary flying and Crabbe actually attacked ''them'' with his bat even after the game was over. When Daphne's mother (a former Quidditch player and current coach with several connections) arranges an official inquiry into the events surrounding the ban, the investigators note that such bans are only issued in response to grievous and repeated offences, and in this case Harry and George were clearly provoked and Fred didn't even do anything.
134* ''Fanfic/DumbledoresArmyAndTheYearOfDarkness'':
135** When [[spoiler:Renny, a young Slytherin]], gets caught with a copy of the Quibbler in his bag, he [[spoiler:gets his arms broken by Crabbe and Goyle for being a "blood traitor." Then his dad pulls him out of the school. Then Voldemort murders him along with his whole family. Renny's]] story was one of the greatest TearJerker moments in the fic.
136** The Death Eaters respond to the students rebelling by inviting Hans Belsen (who can best be described as a cross between [[UsefulNotes/NaziGermany Jospef]] [[ColdBloodedTorture Mengele]] and [[ComicBook/NemesisTheWarlock Tomás]] [[FinalSolution de]] [[AbsoluteXenophobe Torquemada]], named after an infamous [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bergen-Belsen_concentration_camp Nazi Concentration Camp]]) to make an example out of a few students.
137* In ''Literature/HarryPotterAndTheGobletOfFire'' Ron and Harry have an argument, because Ron was feeling OvershadowedByAwesome and he felt Harry was hiding something from him. Rose Potter of ''The Girl Who Lived'' responded to this by throwing Ron around the room and carving words into his forehead.
138* In ''Fanfic/{{Heir}}'', [[FreudianExcuse Voldemort hates Muggles because he was picked on at the orphanage as a child]] and [[KickTheDog they killed his baby snake in front of him]]. Voldemort tracked down his childhood tormenter years later and killed her child.
139* In ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13279982/2/Harry-Potter-and-the-Burning-of-Bridges I See No Difference]]'', Snape's response to Draco cursing Hermione's teeth to grow non-stop is to say that he sees no difference. Hermione responds by poisoning him to death. At the end of the oneshot, she decides Draco deserves the same fate.
140* ''Fanfic/HarryPotterAndTheMagicOfTheBeasts'': Fudge's attempts to order Hermione's execution in full view of the Great Hall in second year unless Steve Feros turns up to be arrested for murdering 'prominent purebloods'. Why? Because she didn't report herself as a Nekomata to the Ministry. [[DidntThinkThisThrough This political stunt backfired big time]], with Fudge [[OhCrap backing off under possible threat of arrest for violating international law]], [[HoistByHisOwnPetard Snape stripped of all but teaching potions]], and Fudge expected to lose a lot of political power over the coming years.
141* In ''Fanfic/MyImmortal'', "Samoro" (allegedly James Potter) and "Lucian" (allegedly Lucius Malfoy) are in a band together. Lucian plays a few wrong notes during a concert, and Samoro responds by attempting to ''shoot off Lucian's arm''. But it was later revealed that Snap(e) used DemonicPossession on Samoro to make him do the above, meaning this trope is subverted.
142** Not to mention when Ebony's friend Willow becomes a 'prep', she is then murdered and her body is dumped in the woods. And is raped by 'Loopin', because he's a '[[ILoveTheDead necphilak]]'.
143** When Ebony and Britney have a confrontation, Britney makes a few off-hand remarks and mocks Enoby. What does Ebony do in response? Use a curse to torture her.
144*** Granted, Britney ''did'' [[spoiler:free Snap, Loopin, and Hargrid from "Azkabian."]]
145** A more extreme example: When Ebony and "Satan" are making out while taking each others' clothes off and someone tells them that they can't do that (since they're watching a movie in public), Ebony drains her blood.
146*** Interestingly, though, the author seems to try to justify the murder, claiming beforehand that the woman was a prep out of nowhere.
147* In ''Fanfic/PrincessOfTheBlacks'', [=McLaggen=]'s reason for helping a bunch of students ambush and potentially kill Jen is because she was the junior champion the previous year, not him. The other students at least had the excuse that [[SinsOfOurFathers her mother had killed family members]].
148* Belinda Jabez in ''Fanfic/TomRiddlesSchooldays'' wants to kill Jana Teires for making the Gryffindor Quidditch team when Belinda herself didn't make the Slytherin one.
149* In ''The Real Us'', Blaise calls Hermione a mudblood. His punishment? Being dropped on his head hard enough to be knocked unconscious, imprisoned for a week, and ''denied any medical treatment during that time''[[note]]He almost certainly has a concussion, not to mention potential neck injuries[[/note]]!
150* During her time as a student at Hogwarts in ''Fanfic/ForLoveOfMagic'', Penelope Clearwater once gave Draco Malfoy detention. As a result, Lucius Malfoy uses his influence to prevent her from getting a respectable job once she graduates. Fortunately for her, she runs into Harry who happens to need a personal assistant and [[BecauseYouWereNiceToMe remembers the older girl who did her best to help him despite his prickly attitude]].
151* ''Fanfic/TheRigelBlackChronicles'': Deconstructed when Harry over-reacts during a Defence lesson. Dumbledore arranges a magical dodgeball game, assuring the students that the ball won't actually hurt if it strikes them, but Harry lives on so much of a hair-trigger that when she realises she won't shield herself properly in time, she instinctively uses a ''Depasco'' shield that entirely disintegrates the ball on contact. Then later does it ''again'' when the game has sped up and takes all of her concentration, Draco is meant to shield her, and it looks like it he won't make it in time. Draco gets quite upset with her for not trusting him, and they later have a discussion about paranoia and mental health.
152* In ''Rise Of The Drackens'', the mother of one of Harry's boyfriends makes a slightly insensitive remark, [[{{Ukefication}} which makes Harry cry]]. What's that boyfriend's response? To [[YoureNotMyMother denounce her as his mother]] and tear up his birth certificate in front of her, all while she's pleading with him not to do so.
153
154[[AC:''Webcomic/HetaliaAxisPowers'']]
155* The 'World Financial Crisis Gangbang' comics. I mean, really -- was ''raping'' America ''really'' the best way to sort out the financial crisis?
156* There has existed at least one fanfic in which Canada brutally tortures or murders another character in response to their heinous crime of not remembering Canada's name. To be fair, that does happen to him a lot.
157
158[[AC:''VideoGame/{{Hitman}}'']]
159* ''Fanfic/HitmanMiami'': In one of the chapters, it is mentioned that should 47 even trip off a metal detector, an army of guards will shoot him to death, "as is standard procedure in the event someone sets off a metal detector, anywhere, in the entire world." (This parodies the AllCrimesAreEqual trope from the original games.)
160
161[[AC:''Webcomic/{{Homestuck}}'']]
162* ''Fanfic/{{Hivefled}}'': While imprisoned and horribly tortured, Gamzee was given a GlasgowGrin as punishment. His crime? [[StepfordSmiler Not smiling.]] He's got in on it himself, threatening to rape Eridan and Equius for [[PoorCommunicationKills assuming he knew what was coming]].
163
164[[AC:''Series/{{House}}'']]
165* In ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4301633/1/ Used]]'', Tritter uses kidnapping, gang-rape, murder, stalking, and beating House half to death with his own cane to get revenge for the thermometer incident.
166
167[[AC:''WesternAnimation/HowToTrainYourDragon'']]
168* ''Fanfic/ProdigalSon'': When questioned on what punishment Stoick intends to inflict onto Astrid when she is found guilty, he says he intends on exiling her. What was her crime? Stealing a drawn depiction of her from Hiccup's room. Those who were not loudly protesting this decision still thought it was a bit of an overreaction.
169* ''Fanfic/AThingOfVikings'': Harthacnut the Dane, who sees no problem with ordering a city to be razed in retaliation for killing two of his tax collectors (which was done in real life to the city of Worcester in 1041), plotting an attack on Berk with the intent of killing the entire Hooligan tribe, and ordering a farm to be razed for daring to not give up a guest to him when he ordered it.
170
171[[AC:''Literature/TheHungerGames'']]
172* ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/10212679/1/ The Bombshell]]'' has a double whammy. The protagonist Ada has a...thing about being touched. In kindergarten, she recalls, a little girl surprise hugged her from behind and wouldn't let go. So she kicked her. Then, in response, every student in school shunned her for eight or so years. Those kids really know how to hold a grudge.
173
174[[AC:''WesternAnimation/InvaderZim'']]
175* ''Fanfic/AsylumOfDoom'': Maddie is an albino girl who was institutionalized at the [[BedlamHouse Burke Lunatic Asylum]] just for vocally protesting that she shouldn't be treated as abnormal just for being albino. [[DeliberateValuesDissonance Due to the time period she lives in]], such a belief was viewed as delusional.
176* At one point in ''Fanfic/ForTheGloryOfIrk'', Professor Membrane states his belief that academic fraud should be punishable by death.
177* ''Fanfic/GazsHorribleHalloweenOfDoom'': After Gaz finds out the costume store lost her witch costume and [[UnwillinglyGirlyTomboy she has to wear a fairy princess costume instead]], she beats Dib senseless for merely ''suggesting'' that [[DoNotTauntCthulhu she's suffering from bad luck because she interrupted the ritual in Samhain's name]]. And when she later gets home after her [[HumiliationConga night-long ordeal]], her reaction to him seeing her bedraggled state and asking what happened to her is to ''punt him through a wall''.
178* ''Fanfic/KarmaCircleJudgement'': During Gaz's nightmare, when she is [[LaserGuidedKarma being beaten by a mob of people she hurt in the real world]], all of them furiously voice their grievances with her, making it clear how often she's indulged in this trope.
179-->'''Student #1''': You slammed me against a locker for getting a better test score than you!
180-->'''Student #2''': You beat me bloody with a trashcan for taking too long at the vending machine!
181-->'''Student #3''': You tried to drown me in the bathroom for cutting you off on line at the Mall!
182* ''Fanfic/WitchingHour'':
183** Gaz threatens to feed a guardsman to her hunting hounds simply for suggesting that she should allow servants to finish off wounded animals when she hunts rather than risk her own safety.
184-->'''Gaz''': Are you suggesting I'm too weak to handle a crippled animal? Think carefully before you answer, and remember that I've trained my dogs to eat human flesh on command.
185** Later, she has Nick [[StockPunishment locked in a pillory]] and [[ProducePelting pelted with rotten vegetables]] to punish him for accidentally bumping into her at Bloaty's Tavern and making her spill her drink on herself.
186
187[[AC:''WebVideo/{{Kickassia}}'']]
188* Tends to be a trend with [[WebVideo/{{Kickassia}} Post-Kickassia]] fic where Critic is concerned. Yes, we know he was an epic dick during that week, but is it really necessary to make him the recipient of a dub-conny gangbang?
189
190[[AC:''Series/KidsIncorporated'']]
191* A rather brutal example occurs in ''The Kids Who Cried 'Ouch''', an answer fanfic to the episode "[[Recap/KidsIncorporatedS4E6TheBoyWhoCriedGorilla The Boy Who Cried Gorilla]]". In the fanfic, Ryan, Connie, and Renee get their "just desserts" for their initial treatment of Richie when he first sees the gorilla. Among other things, Ryan gets beaten to the point that he suffers a drug addiction that causes his grades to fall to flunking levels, Connie gets a knife up the vagina rendering her sterile, and Renee winds up repeatedly getting raped to the point that she winds up pregnant and ends up suffering a miscarriage.
192
193[[AC:''Anime/KillLaKill'']]
194* As discussed and noted in ''"Batteries"'', Ryuuko ran away from home and didn't contact Satsuki for about two and a half years since then over an incident with the latter hiding the batteries.
195* In ''Fanfic/CellarSecrets'', the reason as to why [[spoiler:Ryuuko]] was locked away in a cellar and underwent horrible abuse is surmised as "because she was born". Of course, whether or not that was the actual reason she was locked away has yet to be said, but that is all Satsuki and Nui have to go on. As we later found out, this was part of it, as [[spoiler:a mentally ill Ragyo had become pregnant with her just as her marriage had collapsed]].
196* In ''Webcomic/KillLaKillAU'': Don't take Ryuuko's toys [[http://akaichounokoe.deviantart.com/art/Kill-la-Kill-AU-X-Don-t-take-Ryuuko-s-toys-466001765 or else]]. To elaborate, Nui took Ryuuko's stuffed rabbit and Ryuuko's response, rather than tell on her, was to threaten her with an AK-47.
197
198[[AC:''VideoGame/KingdomHearts'']]
199* In canon, Eraqus is a KnightTemplar WellIntentionedExtremist who only [[spoiler:tries to kill Ventus because he didn't want a second Keyblade War]]. In ''WebVideo/KingdomHeartsButItsSilly'', he immediately decides to murder Ventus after hearing him talking backwards, and when Terra comes to rescue him and also starts speaking backwards, Eraqus tries to kill him as well. [[{{Hypocrite}} Eraqus himself spoke backwards in an earlier part]]. Additionally, Xehanort tries to kill Ventus in a flashback because [[ToiletHumor Ventus wouldn't wipe his ass]], and later on, the Wayfinder Trio decides to beat Xehanort to death for dancing to [[Music/BeeGees Stayin' Alive]]. They fail.
200
201[[AC:''WesternAnimation/TheLoudHouse'']]
202* ''Fanfic/TheBoyWhoCriedIdiot'': In the third alternate ending, Lincoln (non-fatally) strangles Lynn Sr., knocks out Rita, and beats up everyone else just for falsely blaming him for things.
203* In ''Fanfic/TheNightmareHouse'', Lucy's nightmare involves being vomited on for dancing incorrectly.
204
205[[AC: ''WesternAnimation/{{Luca}}'']]
206* In ''Fanfic/MoreFamilyMoreHappinessRight'' Alberto started a fight with his adoptive sister Giulia just because she drank from his favourite mug.
207
208[[AC:''Manga/LuckyStar'']]
209* In ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/8026135/1/The_Day_Everything_Changed_Revised_Edition The Day Everything Changed]]'', the main antagonist of the story, [[BigBad Sakura Takahashi]], went on the attack, giving Kagami [[NoHoldsBarredBeatdown the mother of all beatdowns]] and injuring the poor girl so badly that she had to be rushed to the hospital. What the hell did Kagami do to deserve this? The fact that she simply scored higher than Sakura on a midterm (and considering Sakura has been held back twice, and only got a 30 (F) while Kagami got a 96 (A), she should have realized this would happen). Making things worse is the fact that Sakura had secretly held a grudge against Kagami for God only knows how long. Luckily, [[LaserGuidedKarma justice quickly catches up with her]] once Konata [[LittleMissBadass intervenes]], and it ends with Konata and Kagami becoming an OfficialCouple.
210
211[[AC:''WebVideo/MandelaCatalogue'']]
212* ''WebAnimation/TheMandelaMagazine'':
213** The hooded Intruder gets in Mark's face and screeches at him after he refuses to give him a tip for delivering pizza.
214** Mark shoots an Alternate who gets in his personal space and sniffs him weirdly.
215
216[[AC:''Franchise/MassEffect'']]
217* In ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/10804452/1/Mass-Effect-Synthesis Mass Effect: Synthesis]]'', the Council orders a biological attack on a Systems Alliance world due to being Indoctrinated (along with roughly everyone on the Citadel). Humanity's response, despite knowing about the Indoctrination, is to launch a war of genocide against the turians, asari, and salarians, only sparing those needed for synthesis with the Reapers.
218
219[[AC:''WesternAnimation/MiraculousLadybug'']]
220* Disturbingly common in [[AccusationFic Salt]] [[RevengeFic Fics]], which are more than happy to ruin teenagers' lives over the crime of not believing Marinette.
221* ''Fanfic/FashionUpgrade'':
222** When the kids in Mendeleiev's class get to choose what project Bustier's class will work on, some of them want to make them do a difficult project to avenge Marinette for being forced to transfer out. Subverted when Marinette presents a more fair idea that will give everyone in Bustier's class a chance to participate and everyone agrees. Mendeleiev quietly notes that this works in their favor since if Bustier's class gives ''them'' a difficult project, they'll look more gracious by comparison.
223** Lila is furious that Marinette not only didn't stay expelled but that transferring classes only gave her even ''more'' positive attention from the student body thanks to her being LovedByAll. She talks Bustier's class into having Mendeleiev's class put on a fashion show specifically in the hope that Marinette will crash and burn under the stress.
224* ''Fanfic/TheKarmaOfLies'':
225** PlayedWith regarding Adrien. Due to his BetrayalByInaction of Marinette ''and'' Ladybug by opting to not only refuse to do anything about Lila, but actively trying to ''protect'' her from the natural consequences of her misdeeds, the karmic backlash that was originally intended for ''her'' strikes '''him''' instead. Adrien actively [[NotHelpingYourCase makes things worse for himself]] through his own arrogance, LackOfEmpathy and [[EntitledBastard sense of entitlement]], ultimately [[HoistByHisOwnPetard digging his own grave]]. That said, the sheer ''degree'' of what he loses may seem excessive, as he winds up [[spoiler:HatedByAll, with most of Paris convinced that he [[ConvictedByPublicOpinion aided and abetted Hawkmoth and Mayura]] in their terrorism, having [[RichesToRags lost his family's wealth]] and all his friends after they learned how he let Lila scam them]].
226** Marinette's [[WeUsedToBeFriends former friends and classmates]] [[TakingAdvantageOfGenerosity took her kindness for granted]], abandoning her in favor of Lila's TooGoodToBeTrue promises of helping them reach [[YourHeartsDesire their dream goals]]. Lila not only tricks them into donating to her [[FakeCharity fake charities]], she actively ''destroys'' their dreams by stealing the results of their hard work and selling them to the highest bidder, enabling others to get credit for the things ''they'' created. She also ruins several of their reputations, thanks to them getting blamed for ''her'' thefts and manipulations.
227* ''Webcomic/ScarletLady'':
228** In this reality's version of "Lady [=WiFi=]", Chloé learns that Alya mistakenly believes that ''Marinette'' is Scarlet Lady. She responds to this unknowing slight by snapping a picture of Alya getting into Marinette's locker looking for proof, then makes a scene in the Principal's office and threatens to [[ScrewTheRulesIHaveConnections get her father involved]] until he suspends Alya for a week. Followed by her gleefully taunting her:
229--->'''Chloé:''' "Too bad your friend Marinette ''isn't'' Scarlet Lady... or she ''might'' have saved you."
230** A bonus panel during "The Horrificator" implies that Hawkmoth deliberately renders Mylene's akuma incapable of speech as punishment for her sassing him during the akumatification process.
231** Since Gabriel broke his promise to come to their class' Career Day, Adrien implies that he's going to binge on the croissants Marinette and her father brought in. Gabriel responds to this by declaring that he's 'akumatizing the S*** out of someone now' purely to punish his errant son... for daring to go off his diet.
232** "The Gamer" offers two instances. Max is so upset at Marinette [[IWasBeatenByAGirl besting him at UMS3]] that he gets akumatized... with even Hawkmoth pointing out that he was beaten by ''two people'', not one. This folds into Chloé/Scarlet's scheme to exploit Max's RoaringRampageOfRevenge by deliberately aiming to get Marinette ''killed''... for the high crime of spending time with Adrien. Notably, Scarlet subsequently praising Max for his tunnel vision actually [[YourApprovalFillsMeWithShame drives home for him]] how badly he overreacted.
233** Her revenge against Lila for [[CelebrityLie claiming to be Scarlet's BFF]] also goes beyond the pale, as she crashes her outing with Adrien, interrupting his own callout of her lies to gleefully wrap her up in her yo-yo's string and send her spinning into a nearby fountain. Which leads not only to her akumatization, but causes her to catch a cold, thanks to being soaking wet in the middle of December.
234
235[[AC:''WebComic/MiasWorld'']]
236* In ''Zach I Hate You'', [[spoiler:Speedway]] Karen first yells at them loudly for a few minutes and then later [[spoiler:wants to ''kill'' Mr. World and Lyer for cursing (note that they were also whispering very quietly and neither child was paying attention) in front of two children]].
237** [[spoiler:[[Music/TallyHall Zubin]]]] wants to kill Mr. World for stepping on his ant farm.
238
239[[AC:''Franchise/MortalKombat'']]
240* ''Fanfic/InWithTheOldOutWithTheNew'': Kano kidnaps Cassie in retaliation following his defeat at the hands of Sonya. Cassie then challenges Kano to kombat for her freedom... and wins. Kano, being the sore loser that he is, [[spoiler:''rapes Cassie.'']]
241* However, Kano gets it worse in ''Mortal Kombat: Redemption,'' as it is Cassie herself who not only kills his lieutenants (and framing the Red Dragon), but also [[ColdBloodedTorture brutally tortures]] Kano as payback for kidnapping both her and Jacqui (seen in the Tie-in Comics), before killing him [[CruelAndUnusualDeath by performing the 'blood eagle']]. Then, to make sure he's dead, Cassie blows off the back of his head with a shotgun.
242
243[[AC:''WesternAnimation/MummiesAlive'']]
244* In [[https://www.fanfiction.net/u/32318/Julie-Horwitz Julie Horwitz]]'s ''Mummies Alive'' fanfics, both of her trilogies (one set after the series ended, and one an AU beginning in ancient Egypt) reveal that Tia, Ja-Kal's wife, arranged for Nefer-Tina to be brutally raped by Ja-Kal's brother (and in the AU version Tia [[spoiler:goes on to kill Scarab and Rapses as part of her revenge]]) to punish Nefer-Tina for daring to love Tia's husband, even though Nefer-Tina had never done ''anything'' to suggest she'd act on her feelings and Jak-Al hadn't even met Nefer-Tina directly before Tia took action.
245
246[[AC:''Franchise/MyHeroAcademia'']]
247* {{Discussed}} in ''Fanfic/TheScorpionJar'': After Izuku [[TheChessmaster manipulates events at Aldera]], gathering up evidence of all the abuse there and submitting it to the Board of Education, a reporter asks whether it's possible he went too far. After all, many of the students there have now been publicly exposed as bullies and shipped off to juvenile detention centers. In response, Izuku reveals a pair of scars on his face that he'd been hiding with concealer, and [[EveryScarHasAStory explains how he got them]]:
248-->'''Izuku:''' Garo gave me these scars because I got two points higher on a math test than him, one scar for each point. Two points on a middle-school math test, and he decided a suitable punishment was disfiguring me. What would he do to a girl who refused his advances? What would he do to a villain who's only guilty of filching bread because they haven't eaten in a week?
249* ''[[Fanfic/ThinkBeforeYouSpeakMHA Think Before You Speak]]'':
250** Principal Nedzu forbade Aizawa from expelling any of his students that year. So in order to punish Izuku for not having flawless control over his SuperStrength Quirk yet, Aizawa falsely tells Tensei that Izuku was responsible for Tenya being hurt during a training exercise. He expects this to result in Izuku being ConvictedByPublicOpinion, ruining his student's reputation and potentially destroying his future.
251** Many see Tensei naming Midoriya and blaming him for his brother's injuries as taking things way too far.
252** The final scene implies that [[spoiler:Stain intends to ''murder Tensei'']] as punishment for his MaliciousSlander.
253** The whole mess of this story happens because, as in canon, Bakugou sets off enough of his nitroglycerin to potentially kill someone (with his only defense when All Might tells him to not do it is "[they] won't die if [they] dodge it!") with full intent for that "someone" to be Midoriya. The reason for that? [[FeelingOppressedByTheirExistence He doesn't likes that "Deku" is in his same classroom, campus, and possibly plane of existence]]. [[DeconstructedTrope Bakugou just digs himself deeper into trouble when he tries to defend his action by claiming (paraphrased) "hey, it's Deku, that makes it all right".]]
254
255[[AC:''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'']]
256* ''Fanfic/BitterTearsAnAnonAMissFic'' {{Deconstructed|Trope}} this trope with two instances:
257** Apple Bloom, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo creating Anon-A-Miss, a rumor-spreading Mystable blog where embarrasing secrets were leaked, and framing Sunset Shimmer as the culprit was bad enough. Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle's reason ([[GreenEyedMonster they wanted their sisters to hang out with them more instead of Sunset]]) and the fact that Scootaloo hardly had an excuse beyond ItSeemedLikeAGoodIdeaAtTheTime [[DisappointedByTheMotive is the thing that everybody is absolutely disgusted with]] because it highlights how utterly petty the whole cruel scheme was.
258** After the three girls are forced to confess to Canterlot High School that they're the masterminds behind Anon-A-Miss, they start getting bullied by the student body in retribution, raging from [[AllOfTheOtherReindeer ostracization]] to having hateful messages scribbled on their lockers. It eventually gets physical, with some students beating them up. [[spoiler:Once Celestia finds this out, she promptly suspends all of the attackers. When Gilda tries to protest her two-weeks-of-suspension as punishment for giving Apple Bloom a black eye by pointing out what the younger girl did, it doesn't work. Celestia bluntly tells her that it's justified to feel angry at the culprits for the cyberbullying they committed, but it does ''not'' change the fact that Gilda and her friends assaulted a defenseless student on school grounds.]]
259* In ''Fanfic/BrideOfDiscord'', Discord claims turning Equestria into a WorldGoneMad, overthrowing Celestia, and tormenting all of pony kind for who knows how long, was initially just because Celestia got mad at him for several pranks that were ''his'' fault. [[spoiler:Even after learning the full extent of his FreudianExcuse, there is nothing that justifies just how far he went.]]
260* ''Fanfic/CadanceOfCloudsdale'': Lady Prisimia was ''banished from Equestria'' because her boyfriend grew ''bored'' of her and started spreading MaliciousSlander so intense that Celestia herself exiled her. [[spoiler:Actually a {{Subversion}}, as Cadance notes how Prismia was under the spell of an [[ArtifactOfDoom evil amulet]] that amplified the negative traits of her personality and altered her perceptions of reality. It was far more likely that Prismia grew increasingly scathing and hostile until a real incident happened, and she chose self-exile than stay any longer in Canterlot]].
261** Same with Prismia's reasons for [[EmotionEater stealing love from everyone in Reduit]]. Because of her nasty breakup with her coltfriend, she decided to take love from these people "because they didn't deserve to be happy" while she was miserable.
262* ''Fanfic/CelestiaVSCleverbot'': Luna gets upset with Cleverbot and takes out her anger by destroying the computer and setting it on fire.
263* In ''Fanfic/TheConversionBureauTheOtherSideOfTheSpectrum'', TheManBehindTheMan is [[spoiler:the Bag of Tirek, which wants to destroy all of humanity because Megan destroyed its creator.]]
264* In [[http://www.fimfiction.net/story/103214/denuo-fortuna Denuo Fortuna]], one pony feels up Icefang... ...So she responds by breaking both of his forehooves later that night.
265* ''Fanfic/GettingBackOnYourHooves'': Why is Checker Monarch so intent on destroying Trixie's life? Because, when she was a filly, she ''beat her at chess''.
266* ''[[Fanfic/TwilightSparkleYoureBeingRidiculous I, Twilight Sparkle, Plan to Be The Most Evil Villain EVER!]]'':
267** Defied. Twilight fears she's going to be hanged by the Sheriff for accidentally knocking a stallion out. Hard Tack assures her she'll just be fined since her record is pretty clean.
268** Hilariously inverted. Chrysalis crows to the heroes she'll never tell the heroes where Cadence is under the threat of torture. The sheriff threatens her with community service, and she spills the beans.
269* In the ''[[Fanfic/RainbowDoubleDashsLunaverse Lunaverse]]'' story ''At the Grand Galloping Gala'', Night Light blocks the sending of emergency funds to Ponyville just to punish Trixie for insulting Twilight. And it gets worse: [[spoiler:he tells Trixie the only two ways he'll accept her apology are if she resigns from the Night Court, giving up her life dream in the process, or if she finds and returns Twilight to him. Failure to do either will result in him preventing her from advancing past Representative.]]
270* ''Fanfic/PastSins'': [[SarcasmMode Hey kids]], is the nerd asking questions that the teacher holds off recess to answer? That's not cool! Let's trick her into going into a forest full of hungry monsters to an ancient and quite possibly cursed ruin [[spoiler:where she'll get {{mind rape}}d by memories she didn't know she had!]] Sound harsh? Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon did it! [[spoiler:Although, to be fair, they didn't know that the mind rape thing would happen. The monsters, however, are common knowledge.]]
271* One conclusion to the ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'' DarkFic "Pattycakes"[[note]]which, to be fair, is intended as parody[[/note]] ends with Fluttershy singing to Rainbow Dash about how Dash[[note]]who does have a bad habit of saying things without thinking first[[/note]] will never hurt anyone's feelings again now that she's been ''[[MindRape mentally regressed to an infant]]''. The ''[[MultipleEndings other]]'' conclusion has Scootaloo fail to grasp Fluttershy's philosophy after going through the series of (twisted) tests, and if she fails the final test by ''drinking water instead of milk'', she's regressed even ''further'' than Dash (Dash had BabyTalk, Scoot loses the power of speech ''entirely''), with no hope of ever recovering. (For your daily humour-so-dark-light-cannot-escape-its-surface needs, her cutie mark takes the form of a baby's pacifier, since she's not exactly going to have the chance to demonstrate any ''other'' talents, now is she?)
272* In Shining Armor's side story in the ''FanFic/PonyPOVSeries'', the arc's BigBad [[GeneralRipper Makarov]]'s reaction to Shining not knowing who he is is to ''try to assassinate him''. And that's plan A -- plan B is to instead subject him to a FateWorseThanDeath.
273** When Diamond Tiara went through her mother's jewelry and "borrowed" a tiara (earning her cutie mark in the process), her mother didn't take it well. And by that I mean she tried to ''strangle her own daughter to death''.
274** Let's not forget the [[BadFuture Dark World]] arc, where [[spoiler:Nightmare Eclipse/Paradox, formerly Twilight Sparkle, has been [[GroundhogDayLoop rewinding time]] simply to continue to make Discord suffer.]] An interesting example, because [[spoiler:Discord really did enough to her to warrant a truly horrific punishment, Paradox managed to [[KnightTemplar go so far]], her revenge went into this trope ''despite'' how much Discord did to her.]]
275* The main (and only real) plot of the web series ''WebVideo/RainbowDashsPreciousBook'' is Rainbow Dash's unnamed human friend repeatedly trying to steal her ''Daring Do'' book [[FailureIsTheOnlyOption only to fail]] and get beat up by Rainbow over said book. At one point she hits him hard enough to send him ''flying'' into a telephone pole and on another took out a '''passenger plane''' he was trying to escape from. All because he tried to swipe her book (repeatedly).
276* In ''Fanfic/SophisticationAndBetrayal'', Cashmere wants to ruin Rarity and destroy her business, simply because the latter declined her affections.
277* ''[[https://www.fimfiction.net/story/303002/1/starlight-glimmer-overreacts-to-everything/starlight-glimmer-overreacts-to-everything Starlight Glimmer Overreacts To Everything]]'': [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Starlight has a tendency to overreact to everything]]. She hacked up Twilight's toaster with an axe for burning her toast, threatened to murder several children if they told anyone about her swear-laden toaster-cide, verbally abused Derpy because she received nothing but bills and spam in the mail when she was expecting a letter from her mother, violently assaulted the ponies at the post office because she was convinced they were keeping said letter from her, blew up an inanimate rock because she stubbed her hoof on it causing her to drop her ice cream, carved several large holes in a road because blowing a hole in the road caused the scenery to look wrong, engaged in verbal and physical abuse of Fluttershy and Rainbow Dash when she was losing at Monopoly, burned down Fluttershy's house when she realized they had started throwing the game to placate her, and tried to abort Cadance's child because she lost a bet on the sex of the baby.
278* ''Fanfic/TheStoryOfTwilightGlow'': Nightmare Moon, [[EvilOverlord unsurprisingly]], is quick to brutally punish others. She outright threatens to destroy Rarity's career if she doesn't decorate the castle exactly. Twilight, who [[BeleagueredAssistant has become Nightmare Moon's de facto advisor]], tries to temper this aspect of Nightmare Moon.
279
280[[AC:''Manga/{{Naruto}}'']]
281* ''Fanfic/DreamingOfSunshine'': Shikako masterminds a revolutionary upgrade of the Logistics department via her seals (with help of Tenten) that leaves the department in chaos. Why? [[spoiler:Somebody in Logistics called Shikamaru an idiot.]]
282* In ''Fanfic/{{Eroninja}}'', Furofuki plans to break Tsunade, destroy Konoha, make Naruto her sex slave, and enslave the world as [[AGodAmI god]]. Her reasoning is explained as jealousy that Tsunade was more skilled than her and that Dan chose Tsunade over her. She also blames Tsunade for [[NeverMyFault Dan dying in the ambush Furofuki set up to have Tsunade killed]].
283* Invoked in ''Fanfic/EscapeFromTheHokagesHat''. The council want to banish Naruto, want Sasuke's prison sentence forgotten and were smart enough to get the Daimyo to agree with any of their decisions. Tsunade's response? Shove Sasuke in one of the darkest ANBU cells being kept barely alive, setting up the collapse of Konoha's economy, taking money from the accounts of every clan that ever wronged Naruto and finally making Jiraiya (temporary) Sixth Hokage while she leaves with Shizune, Hinata and Naruto for a six month training trip. When she [[RationalizingTheOverkill explains why she did it to Naruto]], she has this to say:
284-->"I decided to teach those meddling old fools a lesson in respect. If the reason I came back to the village is kicked out, I am SO joining in the fun!"
285* ''Fanfic/IAmNOTGoingThroughPubertyAgain!'' has Tobi mutilate a delivery ninja who was delivering his invitation to the Uchiha family reunion. He also immolates the remains and empties his bladder on the body for good measure. Why? [[spoiler:''It was for mentioning his real name.'']]
286* ''Rinne no Naruto'' has Naruto decide to torture and kill a kid who used to bully him.
287
288[[AC:''Website/{{Neopets}}'']]
289* ''Webcomic/{{Spooky}}'': Tombstones reaps the soul of a Blue Kacheek just because they made fun of him for looking silly while carrying a bag of groceries. The fact he also needed one to get five-in-a-row for soul-reap bingo may have also been a motivator.
290
291[[AC:''Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion'']]
292* ''Fanfic/RiseOfTheMinisukas'': Rei wishes to get even with Prankster for [[FaceDoodling writing on her face with a marker while she was sleeping]], but the way she phrases said desire would be best coming out of the mouth of [[Franchise/StarWars a Sith Lord]]:
293-->'''Rei:''' ''"Tell the one who transgressed against me that I, Rei Ayanami, will not take this act of disrespect lying down. I will enact upon them a vengeance so grand, so sublime, that future generations of mankind will write epics about my victory. Plays will be written about my conquest over your compatriot, sonnets depicting my revenge will be distributed to schoolchildren to teach them of the folly of men perpetrated by the one who wronged me. And when my dread vengeance is brought to fruition, when this Prankster who had defaced me lies broken and defeated at my feet, I will say nothing. As nothing needs to be said to mere dust."''
294
295[[AC:''Manga/OnePiece'']]
296* ''Fanfic/ThisBites'': In retaliation for the humiliation he suffered [[spoiler:on the SBS]], Garp forges Sengoku's signature so [[spoiler:Merry, an anthropomorphic ''ship'', gets a bounty for ''chomping on his ass'', and]] Cross and Soundbite get ''one of the highest bounties in the world''. The latter two alternate between being elated and depressed over this, as while this measure of infamy garners a lot of respect and fear, it also increases the amount of enemies and danger they face.
297
298[[AC:''Literature/PercyJacksonAndTheOlympians'']]
299* ''Fanfic/MoonDaughter'': A teenager who bullies the protagonist is sentenced be "chained to a giant coach purse for internity."
300
301[[AC:''Franchise/{{Pokemon}}'']]
302* In ''Fanfic/LatiasJourney'', the Ghost King proposes to Latias after sending her several gifts. She refuses his advances, so he kills her family, and then destroys her home, Altomare, along with everyone in it. Judging by the city it is based on, he killed upwards of 800,000 people. Strangely enough, she still falls in [[AMillionIsAStatistic love with him.]]
303* In ''Fanfic/NewWorld'', Maddie smacks Ashton in the face. And he proceeds to savagely beat her. Keep in mind that the reason she hit him in the first place was because he was trying to ''rape her.''
304* In the Creator/HansVonHozel story ''Pikachus Umbrella'', Pikachu is locked in a prison cell for all eternity for stealing a TV set.
305* ''Fanfic/PokemonMysteryDungeonWhatCameAfter'':
306** The yellow Kecleon in Sunlight Chasm threatens to make Team Everlasting [[ShopliftAndDie "pay the ultimate price"]] for accidentally stealing two berries and a seed from his shop.
307** In ''Climbing the Ranks'', a Nosepass is said to have blown up a pizza parlor (fortunately, no one was hurt) because they served [[StockYuck pineapple pizza]]. Riolu opts to pursue a different outlaw.
308** [[spoiler:Team Guile defeat an outlaw they had no idea Team Everlasting were after, so Riolu decides to intentionally complete a job that Team Guile want to.]]
309* ''Fanfic/PokemonResetBloodlines'' has some examples:
310** Like in the anime, Azalea Town's collective BerserkButton seems to be whenever anyone steps on a Slowpoke's tail. No matter if it's a girl who did it by accident, and in the process saved a baby carriage from being squashed by traffic.
311** One girl [[IHaveNoSon was kicked out of her home by her parents]] [[FantasticRacism for being a bloodliner]]. A ''[[DodgeTheBullet Detect]]'' bloodliner.
312** An incident with a DirtyOldMan [[ThePeepingTom who tried to spy on a wedding]] in the Celadon Gym led to ''all'' male trainers being banned from challenging it.
313* [[spoiler:In '' Fanfic/PokemonStrangledRed'', Steven, the protagonist, ''kills his own brother'', who had pressured him into a trade that caused the death of his Charizard, Miki.]]
314* In the ''Fanfic/PokeWars'' series, [[BigBad Ho-Oh]] sees genocide as a fitting punishment for humanity's "enslavement" of [[{{Mons}} Pokémon]].
315
316[[AC:''Anime/PrettyCure'']]
317* ''Fanfic/PreCureInANutshell'': In the nutshell retelling of [[Anime/FutariWaPrettyCure the very first episode of the franchise]], Eggnog (Nagisa) hits Piss (Pisard) with a stick. In retaliation, he hits her with a bench.
318
319[[AC:''VideoGame/PunchOut'']]
320* In ''Fanfic/MaFille'', Glass Joe shirks a match with Great Tiger due to being [[OutSick bedridden with the flu]], thus leaving referee Pierce to take his place. When Joe comes back, Pierce pits him against Soda Popinski (double Joe's weight and nearly double his height) as revenge.
321
322[[AC: ''Literature/{{Redwall}}'']]
323* ''Fanfic/TheUrthbloodSaga'':
324** Broggen and his friend Brigger used to be quite fond of drinking, and after consuming too much wine, they go around terrorizing several goodbeasts, ruining Urthblood's chance of gaining the region's trust. Urthblood responds by ''throwing them into a bog to slowly drown'' (although Broggen was saved before he perished).
325** Wolfrum is accidentally pricked in the behind by a young hedgehog's spikes. He responds by taking out his sword, ready to seriously injure (if not kill) the hedgehog.
326* ''Fanfic/WhatLiesBeyondTheWalls'':
327** In a flashback, Benrath and a friend of his spy on his father [[PottyFailure as he soils himself in his sleep]]. When Log-a-Log wakes up and finds the two laughing at him, he beats his son to a pulp and then ''snaps his friend's neck''.
328** In Book I, Benrath humiliates [[JerkJock Jurlick]] by beating him senseless in front of his friends and then [[ExcrementStatement defecating into his mouth]]. While it's understandable for Jurlick to seek revenge, his method of getting back at Benrath in Book II is to [[spoiler:directly (or indirectly) kill his three closest friends and then manipulate [[DepravedHomosexual Rowgat]] and several monitor lizards into ''gang-raping him''.]]
329
330[[AC:RealPersonFic]]
331* Most of the [[http://gungemaleceleb.blogspot.com.au/ Gunge Male Celebs]] stories. Plenty of times, we have a cocky celebrity, [[InformedFlaw or a celebrity who we are told is cocky]], who walks into a trap, [[HumiliationConga and is subsequently humiliated]], with everyone, including the narration, saying it's their 'just desserts', and that [[NoSympathy they deserved it]]. [[http://gungemaleceleb.blogspot.co.uk/2013/12/story-watergoo-road.html Here's an example]]. And it's all because that they are simply cocky.
332* Inverted in ''Fanfic/WithStringsAttached''. Because the four are {{Actual Pacifist}}s, when they are treated very badly (even tortured in a way) by the Uneasy Alliance in Ehndris�at one point, part of George's ''soul'' is taken from him and have a chance to get some of their own back, they just slap people around for a few seconds. The worst that happens is a few people get slammed into a wall or hosed down, and George does [[CatsAreMean cat tornado]] on [[spoiler:Brox's]] head.
333** It's even more disproportionate when you realize that George did nothing else during the final battle except try not to get hurt, and Paul did nothing except absorb damage and hold Kerrun upside-down and tap her head on the floor to keep her from concentrating.
334
335[[AC:''WebAnimation/RedVsBlue'']]
336* ''Fanfic/MurderersRow'': O'Malley responds to the tiniest of slights with copious amounts of death and mutilation.
337
338[[AC:''Manga/{{Saki}}'']]
339* In ''Fanfic/SakiAfterStory'', by the author of ''Fanfic/TheDayEverythingChanged'', Saki narrowly wins against Teru in the finals of the mahjong tournament. When Saki approaches Teru after the match, and Teru beats her up badly enough to send her to the hospital (doing the same to Nodoka when she tries to help Saki), the people covering the tournament assume that it's because Teru is a SoreLoser. It's actually because Saki tried to talk to Teru and claimed to be her sister, [[DoubleSubversion which still counts]].
340
341[[AC:''Series/SesameStreet'']]
342* In a pornographic ''Series/SesameStreet'' fic ([[CanonDefilement yes,]] [[Rule34 such things exist]]), Maria responds to Elmo peeping on her and lying about being three years old for years by diapering him, and taking his temperature with a rectal thermometer, with several of the other girls joining in the latter, groping his penis in the process. In response, Elmo [[spoiler:ejaculates into her, getting her pregnant ([[ArtisticLicenseBiology because monster sperm gets people pregnant without fail]]), and tells her that if she doesn't want her husband Luis to find out, [[ScarpiaUltimatum she and her 14-year-old daughter will have sex with him whenever he wants]].]]
343
344[[AC:''VideoGame/TheSims'']]
345* ''Fanfic/TheRacketRotterChronicles'': In the first chapter of Arc 3, The Builder slaughters an entire town because Annette drank a bottle of their liquor.
346
347[[AC:''Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog'']]
348* In Episode 61 of ''Fanfic/SonicXDarkChaos'', Sonic and his friends heavily damage Beelzebub's prototype flagship. His response? In episode 67, Beelzebub brutally tortures Cosmo and [[spoiler:nearly rapes Chris to death]] after luring them to his base. Although revenge wasn't the [[ForTheEvulz only]] [[SenseFreak reason]]...
349** Cosmo's mother Hertia exterminated an entire tribe of primitive aliens because they worshiped an icon of Tsali. She also [[PayEvilUntoEvil had several of Tsali's acquaintances publicly tortured to death]] and even imprisoned Seedrians who protested her actions.
350* Done to a wicked extent in ''PrisonIslandBreak.'' In this prison your protagonists are being tortured, raped, and beaten up almost daily. But they're murderers, psychopaths and serial rapists. The writer ''never'' lets you forget it. They deserve it, right? And yet you're feeling sorry for them? Are you sick or something?! Don't worry; there's nothing wrong with your empathy circuits. That conflict of emotions you're getting? That's ''intentional.'' You have to feel it to believe it.
351
352[[AC:''WesternAnimation/SpongeBobSquarePants'']]
353* In ''WebVideo/MrKrabsUnquenchableBloodLust'', when Mr. Krabs learns that the health inspector is a fake posing as a real inspector in order to scam people for free food, instead of calling the police and having him arrested, he kills him with a poisoned Krabby Patty (Although to be fair, this is something he tries to do in the show).
354
355[[AC:''Franchise/StarTrek'']]
356* In ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/9279948/1/Unbeaten Unbeaten]]'' Spock infects Khan with a deadly virus because he refused to stop [[SlashFic seeing Kirk]].
357* Discussed as a possibility in "[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13541656/1/Anatomy-of-a-Secret Anatomy of a Secret]]", after non-Trill such as Benjamin Sisko learn about the existence of the symbiotes while treating Jadzia Dax for a serious injury. With the Trill government having ordered that all non-Trill not be told about symbiotes, Dax notes that the most serious punishment she could receive for that disobedience is to be permanently expelled from Trill so that Dax would not be passed on to another Trill after her death, but she also states that such an extreme punishment is unlikely to happen, especially since she didn't disclose the secret on purpose.
358
359[[AC:''WesternAnimation/TeenTitans'']]
360* ''Fanfic/TheEndOfEnds'' pulls a massive one. The villain, Count Logan, who is [[spoiler:Beast Boy after getting a SuperpoweredEvilSide]], sucks people who were mean to him or otherwise were just living happy lives into his book and kills them. He also has his minions blow up Tamaran because Starfire got together with Robin [[spoiler:when Terra didn't get together with him]]. In fact, the entire reason why he was blowing up the universe was because [[spoiler:he got "dumped" by Terra]].
361* In ''[[Fanfic/JokersWildTrilogy Joker's Wild]]'', the Joker kidnaps Beast Boy and puts him through horrific ColdBloodedTorture for weeks on end. Why? Because an action figure of Beast Boy just happened to be programmed to say "Dude, I'm the King of Jokers!"
362
363[[AC:''WesternAnimation/ThomasAndFriends'']]
364* In ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13884878/1/How-Else-It-Could-Have-Been How Else It Could Have Been]]'', in [[OriginalCharacter David]]'s fantasy about how the events of the fanfic ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/12761068/1/Brother-to-Sister Brother to Sister]]'' would have played out if he'd been on Sodor at the time, he punishes Donald and Douglas for accidentally derailing Emily by grabbing them with Cranky, spinning them around, throwing them harshly onto the rails and dunking them into the freezing cold sea.
365
366[[AC:''Franchise/TouhouProject'']]
367* The ''Fanfic/Gensokyo20XX'' series:
368** In 20XXIII, Ran was scalded with some kind of liquid (hinted at to be either acid or very hot water) for snooping through papers and was left with severe burns, resulting scars after she healed. That is a pure testament to how brutal their captors are.
369** In 20XXV,in chapter 66, we have it where Paintbrush Bitch lets Reimu outside of the apartment building, knowing that would place her in danger, which it does when she goes into the Forbiddens, all because Yukari curb-stomped her for calling her a whore.
370*** Arguably, this is case when Reimu stabs Yume Ni with a pair of scissors in response to being kicked in the face, then again, one could say it was an eye for an eye, since Yu dealt her injury and she dealt it back.
371* Yuuka is virtually the queen of this in ''Fanfic/ImperfectMetamorphosis'', along with being WickedCultured. She only lashes out when someone breaks etiquette. An example being when she killed the couple in the hotel room, because they screamed in terror upon seeing her instead of giving her a proper greeting. Another example being that she didn't attack any of Yukari's backup teams until they attacked her, thus breaking the rules of her engagement with Yukari. Kanako picks up on this and manages to talk Yuuka into going home for the day.
372* According to Website/{{Walfas}}, the reason as to why Mokou and Kaguya kill each other continuously is because of a fight they had over toy truck when they were kids.
373
374[[AC:''Franchise/{{Transformers}}'']]
375* Subverted in ''[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/12333870/chapters/28047309 Deathbringer]]'' - officially, OriginalCharacter Cas was imprisoned and sentenced to work in the mines for ten vorns (which is practically a death sentence) for the petty crime of stealing Energon, but in reality, it's because he's the son of Sentinel Prime, and the Functionist Council hope that he will die before Sentinel ever finds out.
376* ''Fanfic/{{Katzenjammer}}'': Starscream threatens to shoot his one-night stand Tidearrow if he admits in any way that he finds Starscream's involuntary ''nyaeeee!'' noises funny. He actually goes through with it after Tidearrow comments that despite all the rumors to the contrary, Starscream is lousy in bed.
377
378[[AC:''TabletopGame/Warhammer40000'']]
379* One tiny piece of artwork describes Makari, Warlord Ghazghkull mag Uruk Thraka's banner carrier, as his one and only genuine friend. You do happen to remember Ghazghkull's crusade to unite the whole Orkoid race and wipe out Humanity, before clearing out everyone else? That's because he hates them for murdering his lucky Gretchin. In the story written for the artwork, Ghazghkull orders his WAAAGH! to occasionally return to the world where Makari's grave is buried. He then goes to the grave alone and just talks to Makari about his WAAAGH's process. So far, he is succeeding.
380
381[[AC:''Literature/{{Worm}}'']]
382* ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13299580/ Collateral Damage]]'': Danny triggered as a Tinker who specialises in returning any attack tenfold. He calls himself Ragnarok, and his technology is so horrifically destructive that he killed ''Behemoth'' and people still aren't sure it was worth the side effects. Taylor gets a necklace from him for personal protection, which results in [[spoiler:giving Glory Girl a stroke by magnifying and returning her aura, blasting Brandish across the street for slapping her, then Brandish attacks with her power and is turned into LudicrousGibs]].
383--> '''Taylor:''' Hello? Ragnarok's daughter, here. Of ''course'' we do disproportionate. It's how we roll.
384
385[[AC:''WebVideo/YogscastMinecraftSeries'']]
386* [[http://kleinerkiller.deviantart.com/gallery/41037509 Yognapped]]: [[spoiler:[[EvilFormerFriend Peva]]]] was exiled from the LetsPlay/{{Yogscast}} for crimes LetsPlay/{{Sips}} only refers to as "being an irresponsible dickhead." This affected him so much that he waited until Minecraftia was in a state of crisis, rallied the remnants of the [[BadassArmy Ironstorm Army]] around him, [[spoiler:kidnapped and enslaved his former friends, [[MakeAnExampleOfThem murdered Sips to demonstrate his seriousness]], and forced the survivors to release Herobrine, nearly causing TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt.]]
387
388[[AC:''WesternAnimation/YoungJustice2010'']]
389* When Superman becomes the "Den Mother" of the team in ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/7827011/1/Scouting Scouting]]'', he starts forcing the kids to wake up early on weekends, make them do chores, and, well, prevent them from being lazy teenagers. The team's response? Try to kill him, or at least critically injure him.
390
391[[AC:''Anime/YuGiOh'']]
392* In ''Fanfic/SonOfApophis'' the villain gives a speech about how pointless the whole 'eye for an eye' thing is. It's better to take both eyes, and the other guy's arms while you're at it.
393
