5	Examples of HoYay in fanworks.
6	----
7	[[AC:''WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender'' / ''WesternAnimation/TheLegendOfKorra'']]
8	* Sokka and Zuko in ''Fanfic/EmbersVathara''. On the beach, they have very similar reactions; they really seem to understand each other, much better than most people; they trust each other, and neither Sokka nor Zuko is naturally trusting; they know that they both have good intentions and respect that, even when they're in conflict; unlike with Toph, Zuko and Sokka are of similar ages.
9
10	[[AC:''VideoGame/BackyardSports'']]
11	* ''Fanfic/TheSecretLifeOfTheBackyardKids'': Jorge and Tony are "as close as male friends can be in a children's story."
12
13	[[AC:Crossover]]
14	* This occurs at the start of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7RuuYOe8X14 this fanvid]] by Creator/TheNight130 that crosses over ''WesternAnimation/{{Cinderella}}'' and ''WesternAnimation/SinbadLegendOfTheSevenSeas''. Marina is supposed to be jealous of her friend Cinderella, but it instead looks like she's jealous of Cinderella's husband. It isn't clear until a minute in that she's in love with the prince.
15	* ''FanFic/StarsAbove'' (''Manga/LuckyStar'' & ''Franchise/PuellaMagiMadokaMagica''): LesYay by the bucketload, as it's an IntercontinuityCrossOver between [[Manga/LuckyStar two of]] [[Anime/PuellaMagiMadokaMagica the most]] [[YuriGenre yuri-prone]] anime of the 2000s and 2010s.
16	* ''Fanfic/ThePokemonSquad'', a MassiveMultiplayerCrossover fanfic, seems to really love these kinds of moments, especially with [[AmbiguouslyBi RM]].
17	** In "HELP", RM assigns MM the codename "Currently Doing That" for his campaign trail.
18	--->'''MM:''' How about no?
19	** In "Pokémon Squad Goes to New York", RM and RM's Friend's Twin share a room that has only one bed. RM insists on sleeping with him, which RM's Friend's Twin does not want. This culminates in RM's Friend's Twin waking up and finding RM sleeping on top of him.
20	--->'''RM:''' You know, Nii-san, we're technically now sleeping with each other..."\
21	'''RM's Friend's Twin:''' Oh, Arceus help me...
22	** In the first movie, a parody of ''WesternAnimation/TheSpongeBobSquarePantsMovie'', there is a scene where Professor Oak pats RM on the back, but decides to stick his hand down the back of RM's pants instead, claiming [[BlatantLies that it's as high as he can reach]].
23	** In "RM's Other Friend-ism", [[WesternAnimation/KaBlam Larry]] mentions that he and RM were in a yaoi panel at an anime convention the previous month.
24
25	[[AC:Franchise/TheDCU]]
26	* In ''Fanfic/AngelOfTheBat'', Cassandra Cain and Stephanie Brown have some LesYay moments (ironically while reading the Bible together) but it's not meant to be much more notable than a lot of their time hanging out in the comics. [[spoiler: Ultimately subverted and even ends up being a plot point- Cassie ''does'' have romantic feelings for Steph, but they're unrequited.]]
27
28	[[AC:''Literature/Discworld'']]
29
30	* Career Assassin Miss Alice Band and others, in the ''Literature/{{Discworld}}'' writings of Creator/AAPessimal. Alice has a special soft spot for boyish Thieves such as Steffi Gibbet, but a [[SpicyLatina high-wire artiste]] and a complicated relationship with a Seamstress also come into it.
31
32	[[AC:Franchise/DisneyAnimatedCanon]]
33	* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xw0ImO5fzG4 This]] {{crossover}} {{fanvid}} is about Belle becoming close to a werewolf woman named Esmeralda. It's supposed to be platonic, however it's hard to remove Esmeralda's flirty nature even with editing. It doesn't help that it uses many ParanormalRomance tropes.
34
35	[[AC:''Franchise/{{Godzilla}}'']]
36	* ''Fanfic/AbraxasHrodvitnon'': The TwoBeingsOneBody Titan Monster X has some definite BelligerentSexualTension with Rodan as their interactions go on, and the male half of Monster X is San, for those Franchise/MonsterVerse fans who enjoy shipping Rodan with King Ghidorah.
37
38	[[AC:''Franchise/HarryPotter'']]
39	* In the ''Fanfic/AlexandraQuick'' series, there is so much HoYay between Alex and Anna. One: They're dorm-mates. Two: They cannot stand when one of them is harmed by an evil entity. Three: At the end of book four, Anna declares platonic love for Alex. Except it might could possibly ''not'' be platonic....
40	* In Keiran Halcyon's ''The Girl Who Lived'' (not to be confused with ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/4040192/ Harry Potter and the Girl Who Lived]]''), Rose swears up and down that she's not a lesbian or bisexual, but spends much of her time [[MaleGaze describing girls' and women's bodies primarily in the order of breasts, nipples, pubic hair, rest of their body]].
41	* ''Fanfic/HarryPotterAndTheMethodsOfRationality'':
42	** Did you know that Draco is "courting" Harry? Everyone in Slytherin does.
43	** When they first meet (though Harry is being a bit facetious)
44	--->Harry burbled on. “I’m delighted to meet you, Mr. Malfoy. Just unutterably delighted. And to be attending Hogwarts in your very year! It makes my heart swoon.”
45	--->Oops. That last part might have sounded a little odd, like he was flirting with Draco or something.
46	** Also:
47	--->Harry was in love. It would be a three-way wedding: him, the Time-Turner, and Professor Quirrell.
48	** Also in-universe: first action the Comed-Tea gets: "BOY-WHO-LIVED [[MisterSeahorse GETS DRACO MALFOY PREGNANT]]". The ''Quibbler'', of course.
49	** "Romantic? They're both boys!" (Explanation: It turns out that an apparent majority of the young witch population are [[YaoiFangirl Yaoi Fangirls]], which Hermione has a hard time grasping).
50
51	[[AC:''Franchise/{{Naruto}}'']]
52	* ''Fanfic/KitsuneNoKenFistOfTheFox'', a ''Manga/{{Naruto}}'' HighSchoolAU story, gives us Hinata and Yugito; the one is a sheltered LonelyRichKid, and the other is a former FairCop and a member of the infamous [[TheDreaded Nine Terrors]]. Although both of them are confirmed as straight, the LesYay vibe can be seen here and there between the two of them, with the very first instance of it being shown when Yugito, a self-admitted ShamelessFanserviceGirl, takes a bath in [[WaterfallShower an artificial waterfall]] on the balcony of her hotel suite with the express intention of shocking Hinata's genteelness when the younger woman comes to visit her, and Hinata, after some initial surprise at the sight, spends the next few minutes checking out Yugito's ample body and comparing it to her own. Much later, in the story's Gaiden chapters, Hinata reveals that she's got a bit of a playful side of her own, as shown in the first Gaiden where she gently tickles Yugito's bare feet while the woman is sleeping, and the vibe continues in the seventh Gaiden when Hinata eyes Yugito's body (particularly her [[BigBreastPride boobs]]) up and down [[spoiler:while Yugito's getting ready for her wedding]]. In the latter instance, Yugito actually catches Hinata looking and decides to tease her a bit more.
53	--> '''Yugito:''' See something you like, dear?
54
55	[[AC:''Franchise/{{Pokemon}}'']]
56	* Miya and Madame Boss have some unintentionally romantic-laden elements in ''Webcomic/TeamRocketRoots''. Madame Boss is so close to her [[TheAce star agent]] Miya that she undergoes a SanitySlippage when Miya disappears on a mission. When Miya [[spoiler:dies]] for real, she thinks about how [[spoiler:she'll be TogetherInDeath]] with Madame Boss.
57
58	[[AC:''WebAnimation/{{RWBY}}'']]
59
60	* A lampshaded version occurs in ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/10670768/5/Clothes-please Clothes, please?]]'', when Ren mocks Pyrrha's inability to confess her love to Jaune.
61	-->''Still, just saying, if I were Pyrrha, I would have taken Jaune by his scraggly blond head, dragged him back to the room and made'' '''''damn''''' ''sure he had no one else on his mind...No homo.''
62
63	[[AC:''VideoGame/SuperSmashBros'']]
64	* [[HaveIMentionedIAmHeterosexualToday Despite the author claiming otherwise]], there's a boatload of subtext between Sara and her best friend Lauren in ''Fanfic/SupperSmashBrosMishonhFromGod'', from the former repeatedly referring to the latter as pretty to the fact that they tend to share a room (sometimes even a bed) when they sleep. [[PerspectiveFlip The Lauren Chapter]] all but confirms that this is the case. Then again, considering this is a TrollFic with a homophobic protagonist, this was probably intentional...
65
66	[[AC:''Franchise/TolkiensLegendarium'']]
67
68	* In ''Fanfic/TheOfficialFanfictionUniversityOfMiddleEarth'', this is deconstructed in the subjects "Platonic Love 101" by Frodo and Samwise, and "Male Bonding 202", by Legolas and Gloin. Shows what's really behind it. When a hug is just a hug and such.
69
70	[[AC:''WesternAnimation/TotalDrama'']]
71
72	* ''Fanfic/TotalDramaComebackSeries'': Due to AuthorAppeal, there are strong [[GranolaGirl Bridgette]]/[[PerkyGoth Gwen]] undertones in the series, despite the two already having boyfriends and receiving plot-relevant ShipTease with male characters. In two separate challenges, Gwen kisses Bridgette on the lips very passionately and without hesitation in order to complete a challenge, and Bridgette accepts and indulges in it longly and deeply after the initial shock at the sudden nature of both kisses wears off.
73
74	[[AC:''Literature/TheTwilightSaga'']]
75
76	* ''FanFic/BrewdeningLove''. Brian and Hugo (Mr. Smith) was the best thing to come out of that fanfic. [[FanFic/BrewdeningLoveExpandedUniverse And has been expanded upon.]]
77	* [[InnocentInnuendo Entirely unintentional]] example in ''Fanfic/{{Luminosity}}'' between an old vampire named Addy and [[{{Squick}} five-year-old]] Elspeth. The author delayed the next update slightly to edit that particular ending away, but the original ending line of ''Radiance'', chapter 14, was:
78	-->''[[ItMakesSenseInContext I'm very curious about what just happened, Elspeth; why don't we go settle somewhere comfortable, in your room, and try again?]]''
