* Some ''Manga/MyHeroAcademia'' fanfics give Izuku a cuteness Quirk. In ''[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/17330426/chapters/40771925 Midoriya Izuku. Quirk: Cuteness,]]'' his level of cute is so powerful that it makes people blush and stutter just by looking at him. People frequently offer him things for free, saying that he deserves them for making the world a brighter place. Whenever he tries to enter a martial arts class, the sensei and students tell him that such a 'fragile, precious boy' like him shouldn't be involved in any kind of violence. He is so unbelievably cute that All Might immediately wants to adopt him about two seconds after saving him from the sludge villain.
!!Specific Examples
[[AC:Crossover]]
* ''Fanfic/AvatarOfVictory'' (''Franchise/AvatarTheLastAirbender'' & ''Franchise/MassEffect''): [[BrokenBird Shepard]] tries very hard to keep her professionalism whenever she's around an [[GentleGiant Elcor]]. She even had a plushie Elcor when she was a kid.
* ''Fanfic/BlazBlueAlternativeRemnant'': Zwei's adorableness causes Weiss and Pyrrha to go completely gaga over him. This gets taken up even further with Noel, who snatches him from Yang and proceeds to cuddle him like there's no tomorrow.
* ''Fanfic/CodeGeassPaladinsOfVoltron'' (''Anime/CodeGeass'' & ''WesternAnimation/VoltronLegendaryDefender''): Shirley goes absolutely gaga over the alien pill bugs she and Rai find in ''Across the Universe'', complete with [[WingdingEyes beating heart eyes!]]
* ''Fanfic/FatesCollide'' (''Franchise/FateSeries'' & ''WebAnimation/{{RWBY}}''): Ruby Rose is very happy to meet Astolfo's Hippogriff and Medusa's Pegasus.
* ''Fanfic/InfinityTrainBlossomverse'':
** ''Fanfic/InfinityTrainBlossomingTrail'', Chloe sees the Sorbet Shark Puppies in the Plush Penguin Car and finds them adorable.
** In the sequel, ''Fanfic/InfinityTrainVoyageOfWisteria'', Hazel finds Goh's Sobble to be this and hugs them...while accidentally causing them to unlease a cry that makes her and everyone else around her.
** In ''Fanfic/InfinityTrainSeekerOfCrocus'', Yuri Ichiro is ecsatic about being in the Porings Car and gleefully tackles them in hugs. His loves of Porings and anything similar is so strong that he actually cuddles a copy of ''Rimuru Tempest's slime form''.
* ''Fanfic/KyonBigDamnHero'' (''Literature/HaruhiSuzumiya'' & Website/TVTropes; author DiedDuringProduction): When Kyon sees Hanyuu, he has to resist commenting on how cute she looks.
* Leviathan in ''Fanfic/ManehattansLoneGuardian'' constantly struggles not to squeal or gush over the cuteness of the ponies she meets, trying to keep at least ''some'' dignity. When a foal kisses her to cheer her up, she finally breaks.
* ''Fanfic/MyLittleAnimaniacs'' (''WesternAnimation/{{Animaniacs}}'' & ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic''): The Cutie Mark Crusaders manage to affect the Brain of all characters this way, although he never expresses it.
* ''Fanfic/ASubtleKnife'' (''Literature/{{Worm}}'' & ''WesternAnimation/YoungJustice2010''): Edge has telepathic abilities around the same level than a Martian toddler. Miss Martian finds it positively ''adorable'', but Edge can't help feeling emasculated when she gushes over his subconscious babbling.
* The various Madrigal's reactions in learning about Hiccup and Mirabel's mutual crushes on each other in ''Fanfic/TheDragonAndTheButterfly'' can be summed up in a {{Squee}} because of just how ''goddamn cute'' they think it is.
----
[[AC:''Franchise/DragonAge'']]
* ''Fanfic/SkyholdAcademyYearbook'': Skye tends to have this effect on a lot of people, and apparently the cast of ''Franchise/DragonAge'' are collectively suckers for an infant. In a more specific instance, [[OriginalCharacter Rory]] is rendered almost speechless by her love of a baby druffalo on a visit to Redcliffe Farm.
----
[[AC:''Franchise/HarryPotter'']]
* ''Fanfic/HermionesTalent'' has DracoInLeatherPants [[ReplacementGoldfish replacing]] the [[DroppedABridgeOnHim inexplicably deceased]] Crookshanks with a kitten named Merlin, who only appears in one scene. Hermione's reaction is the above ''Webcomic/{{xkcd}}'' strip to a T.
----
[[AC:''Webcomic/HetaliaAxisPowers'']]
* ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/11886910/1/Gankona-Unnachgiebig-Unità Gankona, Unnachgiebig, Unità]]'': Like in canon, both Italy and Japan love cats, and cats are cute. Enough said.
----
[[AC:''WesternAnimation/JackieChanAdventures'']]
* This happens in ''Fanfic/TheUltimateEvil'' during Jackie and Shendu's canon fight in the finale of the first season. When Jackie uses the [[{{Animorphism}} Monkey Talisman]] to turn [[OurDragonsAreDifferent Shendu]] into a rabbit, Valerie starts adoring his cuteness nearly immediately.
----
[[AC:''Franchise/MegaMan'']]
* ''Fanfic/MegaManDefenderOfTheHumanRace'': Everyone, from the readers to the characters, squeals over the cuteness of Peekaboo the Met.
----
[[AC:''Franchise/MyLittlePony'']]
* ''Fanfic/ADiplomaticVisit'':
** In Chapter 4 of the sequel ''Diplomat at Large'', Twilight Velvet falls head over heels for Ocellus when she meets the young changeling, who is rather startled to find this mare cooing at her.
** As seen in Chapter 6, even Rainbow Dash thinks baby hares are "cute little fuzzballs" when she sees them.
* In ''Fanfic/LongRoadToFriendship'', Sunset Shimmer has to be the animal equivalent of a DrillSergeantNasty during her second visit at the animal shelter in order to get the animals to listen to her, except for one cute little puppy that listens to her from the beginning. Sunset immediately takes a liking to the puppy, even devolving into petting and baby talk with him... until she's noticed by Fluttershy. Then, Sunset denies everything.
* ''Fanfic/OopsImEquineAgain'' (author DiedDuringProduction): Sunset Shimmer ends up returning to her normal Unicorn form while in the human world, and Fluttershy and Vice-Principal Luna both find her adorable in this form. Fluttershy actually scoops her into a giant hug when she first sees her, thinking she's Sunset's pet, and Luna scratches her behind her ears while [[BabyTalk baby talking]] to her.
* ''Fanfic/SuckerForACuteFace'': Adagio Dazzle fawns over Angel Bunny whenever they are in the same place.
----
[[AC:''Franchise/NeonGenesisEvangelion'']]
* ''Fanfic/TheSecondTry'': The ridiculously adorable 4-year-old Aki [[spoiler:[[KidFromTheFuture Ikari]]]] has this effect on [[Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion Rei Ayanami]] of all people in the last chapter, which ends up probably the first case of this trope preventing TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt.
----
[[AC:''Series/OnceUponATime'']]
* ''Fanfic/MrAndMrsGold'': The moment Rose happens upon Marco's cat and its litter of kittens, her first instinct is to adopt one of them. Many of their more hilarious moments involve Rose and Mr. Gold dealing with the kitten (then named Figaro).
--> '''Rose:''' Rumplestiltskin, what are you doing?!\\
'''Mr. Gold:''' ...holding the cat?\\
'''Rose:''' By his neck!\\
'''Mr. Gold:''' It was just by the scruff; I wasn't hurting him. Mother cats do it all the time.\\
'''Rose:''' Are you a mother cat?!
----
[[AC:''WebAnimation/{{RWBY}}'']]
* ''Fanfic/ChildrenOfRemnant'': In the main fic, Salem demanded five children as hostages. She abused them in every way possible, denying them food and beds and punishing them severely when they asked for such basic necessities, only to relent when they had "earned" them -- all part of a decades-long BatmanGambit which would likely end with at least one of the children dead and certainly the entire world at war. In the side story ''Fanfic/ChildrenOfTheGrimmlands'', on the other hand, Salem takes one look at the children, decides that they are too adorable to hurt, and finds her mothering instincts coming screaming back. She has to scramble to find them food and beds because she can't have these little angels sleeping on the ''piles of dirty rags'' she had prepared for them.
----
[[AC:''Franchise/StarWars'']]
* In ''Fanfic/TheDesertStorm'':
** Ben is a hardcore Mandalorian Jedi Master who terrifies most of his peers and who even ''[[ProudWarriorRaceGuy Mandalorians]]'' think is insane (and for good reason). Being a battle-hardened time-travelling Obi-Wan Kenobi with rampant [[ShellShockedVeteran PTSD]], SurvivorsGuilt, and an ''epic'' GuiltComplex relating to Anakin, this is not surprising. He is also at his most content when playing with babies in the Temple creches, and one look at baby Beru Ka'ra makes his heart instantly turn to goo. Yaddle notes with some amusement that he's particularly fond of young ones. His padawan, Obi-Wan (his past self), later suggests that Crechemaster would be something to consider when Ben retires from active service, and Ben doesn't disagree.
** Younglings of Yoda's species elicit this from more or less everyone, and considering that they age far slower than other beings, it lasts far longer. ''Yoda himself'' was a particularly adorable child, and as his grandmaster, [[TheAgeless Fay]], relates in amusement, "you have no idea how aggravating it is when you're over a century old and the first thing anyone does when they see you is ''coo''." Ben later implies that he's still capable of eliciting it when he wants to, teasing Fay that Yoda got her to [[spoiler: take a seat on the Jedi Council]] by letting his ears droop and looking sad, whereupon she caved like wet tissue. She just grumbles that he should wait until he has a grandpadawan and try denying them anything -- [[InnocentlyInsensitive not knowing]] that he ''did'' have a grandpadawan, Ahsoka Tano.
----
[[AC:''WesternAnimation/TotalDrama'']]
* ''Fanfic/UnbreakableRedSilkenThread'': Sammy tends to have this affect on people, to the point even Heather is "weakened" by her presence. Notably, she is one of three girls that Cody hasn't shown a hint of perv towards at any point, along with Jo and Dawn.
----
[[AC:''Franchise/YuGiOh'']]
* ''Fanfic/ZeroHourARCV'':
** Everyone who sees White Rose Dragon and Red Rose Dragon start to fawn and coo over them. Xavier Maxa (actually Carly Nagisa in disguise) even lampshades that he (she) would be fawning over them if he didn't forget that they would attack him with their claws.
** During the very same duel between Xavier and Akiza, the audience gushes over The Fabled Cerburrel (a three-headed puppy) and The Fabled Caitsith (a black cat)
** Mana absolutely gushes over Kuribohs and after she introduces them to Serena, she also becomes enamored.
--->'''Serena:''' ''(hugging Kuriboh with sparkly eyes)'' It's...so...FLUFFY!!! IT'S LIKE A FLUFFY LITTLE KITTY!!!
** Speaking of which, Mana spends most of her duel against Serena cooing over the Lunalights.
----
[[AC:Dormant/Dead/Unsorted]]
* ''Fanfic/CatchYourBreath'': Keisuke Gekko has this reaction to Kakashi's summoned dogs (particularly Pakkun), though a bit more articulate than the usual use of this trope. She still has to be specifically asked to let go of the puppy before doing so.
-->'''Kei:''' He's so ''cute''. [...] From the looks of it, you're about eight weeks old. But since you're Kakashi's, you're probably closer to a year or two, right? Ninken live longer than civilian dogs, and you'll be able to use chakra like your master soon enough. [giggle] We'll be counting on you!\\
'''Kei's narration:''' ''PUPPIES!''
* ''Fanfic/ChildOfTheStorm'':
** Harry elicits this a fair bit in the first book, but small for his age and adorable -- even Natasha finds him cute. It clearly runs in the family, as his third cousin, [[Characters/WonderWomanTheCharacter Diana]], at the age of 12, elicits this from ''the Winter Soldier himself''.
** Ada Maria Potts-Stark (per WordOfGod, the [[FunWithAcronyms acronym was intentional]]) takes up the baton as newborn in ''Ghosts'', to the point where Pepper weaponises it to get Harry (who happens to be [[spoiler:one of Ada's godparents]]) out of a slump by plonking her in his arms.
* ''Fanfic/DimensionalLinks'':
** Red's famous 'cute puppy' impersonation, [[RunningGag which has all subjected to it cursing their weakness to adorable puppies as they cave like wet paper]]. He later turns it into full CutenessOverload when fighting Veran.
** Red also takes notes when he encounters Aryll, Wind's little sister, who manages to make ''every single Link'' melt at once.
* ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7471458/1/The_First_Guardian The First Guardian]]'': This is [[Manga/{{Bleach}} Ichigo's]] (and later Rukia's) reaction to Ururu.
-->"How do I resist hugging her to death?"
* In the ''Manga/{{Naruto}}'' fanfic ''Fanfic/{{Kamikakushi}}'', Tobirama evokes this reaction in quite a few people. Granted, most of them are youkai and civilians tend to have the opposite reaction, especially priests...
* ''[[Fanfic/MyLittlePonyVs My Little Pony Vs...]]'': [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic Rainbow Dash]] has this reaction to a Franchise/{{P|okemon}}ikachu, up until she starts sensing static electricity nearby...
* ''Fanfic/ThePiecesLieWhereTheyFell'': [[spoiler: Human Applejack has a toned-down version of this when she sees Wind Breaker and promptly starts treating him like a big housecat. Human Fluttershy, on the other hand, can't help but gush when she sees Page's pony form]].
* ''Fanfic/ResonanceDays'' has Arzt and Nie, who have this reaction to Ticky Nikki. Given that the latter is a PsychoForHire, she doesn't much appreciate it. They're also often reduced to fawning over open acts of affection, given their highly romantic view of their world and situation.
* ''Fanfic/TheTaintedGrimoire'': Kanin and Maria when they see Auggie's pet Dreamhare.
* Some ''Manga/MyHeroAcademia'' fanfics give Izuku a cuteness Quirk. In ''[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/17330426/chapters/40771925 Midoriya Izuku.
