History CrazyPrepared / FanWorks

* In ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/11437578/11/Mary-Potter-1-the-Call-to-Adventure Mary Potter 1: the Call to Adventure]]'' Slytherin House has evacuation plans for just about ''everything''.

* In ''FanFic/WorldwarWarOfEquals'', once the aliens are confirmed to be a threat, most of the world stocks up on weapons, beef up their militaries, research anti satellite weapons, and even restart some previously canceled weapons projects all to combat the incoming invaders.

* The [[WisePrince protagonist]] in DragonAgeTheCrownOfThorns managed to [[spoiler:get everyone of the main cast out of Ostagar alive, along with the treaties, because he prepared for the possibility of Loghain not charging when he was supposed to.]] Granted, he'd [[spoiler:had a discussion with the man earlier, when they both traded deep observations of one another.]] And this is just one of the many examples.

* In ''The Rift Effect'' (part of the FanFic/TheOmniverseEvent)Bernice Summerfield has a way to basically come back from the brink of ''death'' - mainly because her friends had become so GenreSavvy to the fact that she nearly dies, wherever she goes.

* In ''Roleplay/MarkedForDeath'', being crazy-prepared is how your group of missing-nins survive and win. Planning with multiple contingencies is highly encouraged, although sometime the planning doesn't always account for everything. When that happens, shits hit the fan.

* In ''FanFic/WorldwarWarOfEquals'', once the aliens are confirmed to be a threat, most of the world stocks up on weapons, beef up their militaries, research anti satellite weapons, and even restart some previously canceled weapons projects all to combat the incoming invaders.

** It also just so happened that she [[spoiler:recorded her entire quest to recover her Pop Tarts. She then proceeded to use the film as blackmail to get the princesses to give her back the Pop Tarts. It didn't work.]]

** Maledict doesn't pull any punches in the Episode 75 rewrite either. He puts a Warpspace jamming field to prevent the heroes from fleeing and [[spoiler: summons the Galaxy Crusher to take the entire Milky Way Galaxy hostage and bully Sonic into submission]]. He also was prepared to change his master plan if something failed - [[spoiler: when Tsali betrayed him, Maledict shut his down with a single key phrase he programmed into Tsali years before]]. He also [[spoiler: knew exactly where the Metarex were if needed, in case his pawns ever found out the true identity of his "M" alter ego]].

* In Episode 67 of ''FanFic/SonicXDarkChaos'', Beelzebub put a shield over himself in case Tails tried to attack him, planted a self destruct mechanism in his lair in case Sonic and friends tried to free the slaves there, and installed an escape pod - complete with Warp drive and communications - in his chamber in case Sonic and his friends attacked him directly.

* PlayedForLaughs in ''FanFic/HuntingTheUnicorn'', where the Warblers are frequently unfazed by various situations, and instead focus more on [[RefugeInAudacity recording Kurt and Blaine because they have a huge betting pool on those two]]. David's [[ChekhovsSkill habit of writing everything down]] [[spoiler: lets him figure out that Blaine has a stalker,]] at which the Warblers promptly tell the staff and set up a HeroSecretService. In [[WhamEpisode the nineteenth chapter]], said [[ChekhovsGag secret service]] [[spoiler: possibly keeps Blaine ''alive'' when the stalker tries to kidnap him, as Wes and David [[GoThroughMe force him to kidnap THEM as well]] if he doesn't want them to call 911.]] Meanwhile, [[ChekhovsGun one of their many tracking devices]] ends up recording it.

[[AC: ''VideoGame/DragonAge'']]

* ''Fanfic/ShinjiAndWarhammer40K'': [[GodEmperor Emperor]] Shinji knows what you're planning even before he's met you. He also knows the odds of anything (''whatsoever'') occurring that could potentially derail his saving of humanity, and has already prepared at least four different methods, each, to deal with it. In fact, the only thing he doesn't know is... [[YouCantFightFate why him]]?
* ''Fanfic/HarryPotterAndTheMethodsOfRationality'' depicts Harry as (trying to be) one. The brief appearance of Mad-Eye Moody manages to upgrade his canon use of this trope. Apparently that magic eye of his that he has constantly scanning in every direction doesn't actually need to move--it provides perfect 360 degree vision no matter where it's pointed. He moves it around so that people ''think'' he needs to.
** Also, the aurors have a code (RJ-L20) for "a prisoner is attempting psychological warfare and succeeding". The protocol for that code is to relieve the auror who calls it in and ask questions later.

* In ''Fanfic/{{Progress}}'', the Cake family is insured against acts of goddesses. Which comes in handy when Pinkie Pie accidentally freaks out Princess Luna, and she trashes part of the place. They live with Pinkie Pie, getting an extremely comprehensive insurance policy probably seems like a sensible precaution. Of course, 'extremely comprehensive' policies may not cover against 'Acts of Goddesses'...
* In ''FanFic/OhGodNotAgain'', [[spoiler:when Pettigrew is caught, Luna pulls out a animagus-proof jar that her father had her carry around in case she ever ran across an illegal animagus she wanted to capture]]. Even [[CrazyAwesome Harry]] is surprised by this.

* This little gem from [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7471458/1/The_First_Guardian The First Guardian]]:
--> Ichigo snorted, "I have a silver cross and several rolls of duct tape under my bed, a box in a location only I know about in case an Ichigo Kurosaki from the future deems sending me a message necessary, I carry picklocks in all of my shoes, I secretly own a car I keep parked on the other side of town, I had Kisuke make fake European passports for the both of us, I own a condo in Tokyo that I bought while disguised as a foreign woman by the name of 'Falsa', I bought the warehouse my sister's bodyguards use as base so that I could legally build a separate room large enough to fit a Gundam, just in case I do get a Gundam."
* In ''FanFic/ATaleOfTwoRustBuckets'', the Colonial Fleet is stated to have contingency plans for numerous situations, including such things as the return of the Lords of Kobol, or a revolt by the Junior Pyramid League. Adama implements their first contact plan when he encounters ''Destiny''.

* In ''FanFic/{{Whispers}}'', Moonthistle carries a saddlebag packed with a random assortment of tools that she ''might'' need someday ([[LampshadeHanging "I made a list."]])
