* A zigzagged version appears in ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/7449361/11/Quietus Quietus]]'', a ''{{Manga/Naruto}}'' fic. While Sasuke doesn’t kiss or rape Sakura, he does touch her intimately and attempt to [[UndressingTheUnconscious undress]] her while [[EatingTheEyeCandy taking in the view]] and [[NearRapeExperience fantasizing about “taking her”]]. On top of it all, she’s in a trance the whole time courtesy of Sasuke, who [[PowerPerversionPotential brain]][[HypnoticEyes washed]] her into submission so his servants could [[ForceFeeding break her hunger strike]] against him. In the end, he only backs out before his AttemptedRape because he [[AboveTheInfluence doesn’t enjoy the thought of sex with her hypnotized]] and expects Sakura to eventually submit to him, never mind her feelings on the matter. This is all somehow portrayed in-universe as [[RomanticizedAbuse romantic]].

* In ''Fanfic/TheSecondTry'', a Anime/NeonGenesisEvangelion PeggySue fanfic, after [[spoiler:the defeat of the Seventeeth Angel]], Shinji visits a sleeping Asuka in the hospital, and unlike [[{{Squick}} what he did the original timeline]], he kisses her. Asuka wakes up during the kiss and jokingly tells maybe he should have tried that the last time instead.

* ''WesternAnimation/{{Shrek}}'', being a Disney parody at heart, sets up the awakening scene from Disney's ''Sleeping Beauty'', but then he shakes her awake instead. Bonus points for her pretending to be asleep [[spoiler: merely wanting a TrueLovesKiss to break her spell]].

* In ''LightNovel/LordElMelloiIICaseFiles'', after catching Gray staring at a drunk, passed-out Waver for a bit too long (out of concern for his health, though the anime adaptation suggests through [[FemaleGaze its framing]] that she might have [[BeautifulDreamer other]] [[EatingTheEyeCandy reasons]]), suggests that she ought to take advantage of his state and kiss him. In the original novels, Gray instead rattles Add's cage to shut him up and attempts to manually defrown Waver in his sleep ([[PerpetualFrowner to little avail]]).

* In ''VideoGame/BatmanArkhamCity'' {{Mooks}} will occasionally [[EnemyChatter talk]] about how attractive Mr. Freeze's cryogenically frozen wife is. Other mooks will [[EvenEvilHasStandards call them out]] on this. [[spoiler: It's implied that some of the thugs Joker leaves her with are intending to rape her.]]

* In ''VideoGame/Cyberpunk2077'', [[spoiler:[[PlayerCharacter V]]'s MysteriousEmployer Evelyn is revealed to be a sex worker whose cybernetics were disabled in an attack by ''her'' former employers, the Voodoo Boys gang. After this she's left seemingly comatose, which her BadBoss from the brothel takes advantage of. Unbeknownst to him however, [[AndIMustScream she was aware of her surroundings the entire time]]]].

[[spoiler: but you'll need a different tactic to wake Valanice]].

* In the "Requiem" mission of ''VideoGame/HitmanBloodMoney'', Diana kisses Agent 47 as he lies unconscious during his wake. Turns out [[spoiler:the lipstick has the [[IntimateHealing antidote to counter]] the fake-death serum 47 was injected with]].
* In ''VideoGame/KingdomHeartsI'' Riku's attitude towards the unconscious Kairi invokes this, as at one point he makes a grab at the holographic projection of her sleeping form.
* The FanRemake of ''[[VideoGame/KingsQuestIIRomancingTheThrone King's Quest II]]'' has this as a possibility.

* ''VideoGame/ShiningForce II'' for the Sega Genesis presented this, naturally, as the only way to awaken the otherwise comatose Princess of the Granseal Kingdom after the BigBad was beaten once and for all.
* The 2006 ''VideoGame/{{Sonic the Hedgehog|2006}}'' game comes to mind, with Princess Elise's [[spoiler: necrobestial kiss with Sonic's dead body]]. In a inversion of the Literature/SleepingBeauty archetype, [[spoiler: her kiss brings him back to life so he can prevent the god of light from destroying all of space and time]].
* ''VideoGame/StarFoxAdventures''. Fox probably would've kissed the unconscious Krystal if she was in reach and Peppy hadn't interrupted.
* In ''VideoGame/TheWolfAmongUs'' [[spoiler: Ichabod Crane reveals he has somnophilia and has fetish about having sex with Snow White while she's in her enchanted sleep to point where he payed Fable prostitutes to Glamor up as Snow. Naturally everybody is sickened (especially Snow) with TheReveal and Ichabod goes through a HumiliationConga.]]
* Subverted in ''VideoGame/XenobladeChronicles1'' with [[spoiler: Melia]] and [[spoiler: Shulk]]. The former considers doing this as a show of gratitude for all that the latter has done for her since they met, but she ultimately ends up being too bashful to go through with it. [[GuideDangIt Said scene also happens be extremely easy to miss.]]
** It's also played straight earlier in the story with [[spoiler: Shulk]] and [[spoiler: Fiora]]
** This one could also count as a subversion. [[spoiler: After the battle with Egil, the two wash up on the shore of the Fallen Arm, where Shulk awakens to find an unconcious Fiora.]] Shulk reasons that she needs water, and transfers it to her this way. [[spoiler: Fiora]] wakes up immediately after, and "jokes" that it was her FirstKiss.

%%* Happens at a party in ''Film/DeadPoetsSociety'' between one of the boys and a girl he's been pining after.

* In ''Manga/GirlFriends'', Mari kisses Akko while the latter is asleep. As she's still just realising her feelings for Akko she's quite torn up with guilt about this and what it means.

* In the second light novel of ''LightNovel/TheFamiliarOfZero'', Saito started undressing Louise while she was asleep so he could have sex with her.

* ''LightNovel/GoodLuckNinomiyaKun'':

* ''Manga/VampireKnight'': Averted. [[spoiler:Yuuki is unconscious when Kaname first kisses her, but this is due to giving her blood via their mouths in the process of turning her back to a pureblood, rather than... well, just wanting to kiss her.]]
* In ''Manga/ASilentVoice'', Ueno kisses Ishida while he's in a coma at the start of her spotlight chapter.
* ''Manga/StrawberryOneHundredPercent'': Aya tried to kiss Junpei while he was sleeping and dreaming with Tsukasa.
* ''Anime/{{Sarazanmai}}'': In The Stinger of Episode 2, Enta comes across Kazuki while he's asleep and wearing his Sara costume, and proceeds to kiss him.

* In the Creator/AlanMoore ''ComicBook/{{Miracleman}}'', Dr. Gargunza repeatedly ''rapes'' the unconscious form of Miraclewoman. Later, she wakes up thinking it's utterly laughable just how petty a man Gargunza was.

* ComicBook/TomStrong gets this done to him ''twice'', by a female Nazi super soldier and a hive queen of moon bat creatures. Both times, a child is produced, though only the son of the former ever reappears.
* Sara Pezzini from the ''ComicBook/{{Witchblade}}'' comics was knocked up by ''ComicBook/TheDarkness''' Jackie Estacado while in a coma. Then again, he wasn't in control of his body either..
* Rose Walker is the result of this in ''ComicBook/TheSandman1989''. The imprisonment of Dream causes several people across the world to fall asleep indefinitely. One of these is a woman who is a Vortex (like a Black Hole of dreams). Dream's sibling Desire fathers a daughter by this unconscious Vortex, and ''her'' daughter takes her Grandmother's place as the new Vortex.

* A recurring theme in many Creator/RobertCrumb comics.
* ''ComicBook/AndersonPsiDivision'': While Anderson is inside a virtual rituality program, the Psi-Judge rookie she's been assessing who has a crush on her places an IndirectKiss on her lips with his fingers. [[spoiler:She returns it after he dies saving her.]]

* ''ComicBook/ScottPilgrim'': Psychopathic Manchild stalker Gideon keeps his ex-girlfriends locked away in People Jars. He spends the better part of the story trying to add Ramona to his Living Doll collection. Think about it.
* In ''ComicBook/AdventureComics'' #410, Mike Merrick, a guy who main character [[ComicBook/{{Supergirl}} Linda Danvers]] was taking a fancy to, rescues Linda from drowning in the sea and kisses her before she regains consciousness.
* In ''ComicBook/TheGreatDarknessSaga'', Lightning Lad wakes up from a fever-induced coma to save Saturn Girl and ComicBook/CosmicBoy from a Servant of Darkness, and then he passes out again. In gratitude, Saturn Girl kisses him while he's lying asleep.

* Happens in the extremely popular ''Film/StarTrek2009'' fanfic ''Atlas'', a rare non-squicky example of this trope.

* At one point during ''[[Fanfic/PoniesOfOlympus Atlas Strongest Tournament]]'', Rarity's [[TheRival rival]] Ran Biao "accidentally" knocks Spike out during weight training (by making him carry [[CompanionCube Tom]]), and tries to "use CPR" on him. Rarity shows up just in time to stop her and kick her ass.

* ''Fanfic/ACrownOfStars'': In chapter 17 Shinji bitterly remembers not only he jerked off over Asuka while she was in a coma but also he tried to kiss her in her sleep, and he asks himself what is with him and unconscious girls.
-->'''Shinji:''' You can’t even kiss her right. You tried to kiss her in her sleep when she was crying for her mother. What is with you and unconscious chicks?
* In the epilogue of ''WebVideo/DeathNoteTheAbridgedSeriesKpts4tv'', Matsuda fathers eight children with [[spoiler: Sayu]] while she's still in a coma.
* In ''Fanfic/TheElementsOfFriendship Book II: Chaoskampf'', when Twilight is using an out of body spell to explore the books of the Cult of Pi from within, Applejack is inspecting her unconscious body and nearly kisses her on instinct, before she's stopped. She's extremely embarrassed by it.
* In ''Literature/ThePhantomOfTheOpera'' AlternateUniverse fic ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2237049/1/Erik_The_Vampire_Hunter Erik the Vampire Hunter]]'', Erik is in the hospital, unconscious. Christine feels guilty that he was injured protecting her, so she kisses him, thinking he'll never know. When he wakes up, he tastes something sweet and cherry-flavored on his lips. He later finds out what kind of lip gloss Christine wears...
* Rumors fly around the ''Music/{{Gorillaz}}'' SlashFic writers about [[{{Squick}} what could have happened during the year 2D was in a coma]]. Murdoc probably ''is'' canonically enough of an outright bastard to at least consider it.
* In ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/10137816/2/RWBY-Little-Hunters RWBY: Little Hunters]]'', Pyrrha tries to kiss a [[FountainOfYouth youthfully regressed]] Jaune while he's sleeping (while she's in a towel, ''no less!''), but is interrupted by Ren and Nora.
* In the ''Series/LegendsOfTomorrow'' fic ''[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/7284814 True Love's First Kiss]]'', Sara is put in a coma that can only be ended by TrueLovesKiss (cue comments of disbelief from her friends). Nearly everyone volunteers Leonard, [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold who (for all that he's a thief and a killer) isn't too keen on kissing her while she's unconscious]] - and skeptical of the idea that he's the right one for the job, anyway.
-->'''Leonard''': No. No, there's no way I'm kissing her. I'm no one's 'True Love', for starters. What makes you so sure Sara's is one of the ''seven'' people on this ship, anyway?\\
'''Rip''': We aren't. But it's not like we have a large number of options.\\
'''Leonard''': Second, maybe we got the wrong spell. Maybe Sara will wake up on her own, and with this team's luck it could be right as I'm leaning over her. A normal girl would scream and punch me, but this is ''[[ProfessionalKiller Sara]]'' we're talking about. She’d shove a knife through my throat!

* In ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/3313382/1/Crossing-the-Line Crossing the Line]]'' Hermione kisses a comatose Harry after Ron, thinking she's attracted to ''him'', gives her two-and-a-half times the normal dose of a lust potion which reacts to existing romantic feelings. When a disgruntled Ron gives her the ''entire remaining amount'', she has sex with Harry, which brings him out of the coma.
* A zigzagged version appears in ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/7449361/11/Quietus Quietus]]'', a ''{{Manga/Naruto}}'' fic. While Sasuke doesn’t kiss or rape Sakura, he does touch her intimately and attempt to [[UndressingTheUnconscious undress]] her while [[EatingTheEyeCandy taking in the view]] and [[NearRapeExperience fantasizing about “taking her”]]. On top of it all, she’s in a trance the whole time courtesy of Sasuke, who [[PowerPerversionPotential brain]][[HypnoticEyes washed]] her into submission so his servants could [[ForceFeeding break her hunger strike]] against him. In the end, he only backs out before his AttemptedRape because he [[AboveTheInfluence doesn’t enjoy the thought of sex with her hypnotized]] and expects Sakura to eventually submit to him, never mind her feelings on the matter. This is all somehow portrayed in-universe as [[RomanticizedAbuse romantic]].

* The same happens in Disney's ''WesternAnimation/SleepingBeauty'', but in this scenario, the prince is aware that a kiss will break the spell.
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Shrek}}'', being a Disney parody at heart, sets up the awakening scene from Disney's ''Sleeping Beauty'', but then he shakes her awake instead. Bonus points for her pretending to be asleep [[spoiler: merely wanting a TrueLovesKiss to break her spell]].

* In ''WesternAnimation/TheEmperorsNewGroove'', Pacha attempts giving mouth-to-mouth artificial respiration on an unconscious Kuzco, believing the latter has drowned. Kuzco wakes up and believes Pacha was trying to kiss him without his consent, no matter how hard Pacha tries to tell him otherwise.

* Perhaps the earliest instance of this in film is in Erich von Stroheim's ''Film/{{Greed}}'' (1924), after [=McTeague=] (a dentist) puts Trina under the Gas, his rough beastial nature gets the better of him and he Frenches her while she's out. It's in the original novel (''Literature/McTeague'', by Frank Norris, 1899) too.
* Another early film example is in ''Film/LoveMeTonight'' (1932): Princess Jeanette is prone to fainting spells, and she has one in the garden at the costume ball. Maurice kisses her until she wakes up--whereupon [[KissKissSlap she slaps him.]]

* ''Film/HorribleBosses'' has a situation where [[DepravedDentist Dr. Julia Harris]] molests her employee Dale Arbus while he's unconscious, making it look like he's having an affair, and uses the photos to blackmail him. [[spoiler: In an example of LaserGuidedKarma, at the end of the movie he sets up a sting with some friends, getting footage of her attempted molestation of a patient, in order to blackmail ''her'' into backing off.]]
* In ''Film/KevinAndPerryGoLarge'', Kevin winds up next to a girl who's drunk and passes out in bed next to him at a house party. [[AboveTheInfluence He doesn't take advantage of her sexually]], though he does attempt to kiss her only for her to bite him out of reflex. He does claim he slept with her, only for her to reveal the truth to everyone else.
* In ''Film/TheMummy'', Imhotep gives poor Evelyn (who reminds him of OldFlame Anck-Su-Namun) a ForcefulKiss while she's sleeping, made even more [[{{Squick}} icky]] by the fact the his face was still rotting at the time. Thankfully Rick and co burst in [[CatsAreMagic with a cat]] to scare Imhotep off.
* In ''Film/KillBill'', the Bride wakes up from her four-year coma and discovers that a hospital orderly has been pimping her unconscious body out to customers. [[RapeAndRevenge Naturally, the orderly and his latest "customer" become her first victims]].

* Averted in ''Film/TheHoliday'': Amanda wakes up to a hangover and Graham making her breakfast, and asks if anything happened last night. Graham says no, and Amanda wonders why, thinking she might have made a fool of herself. Graham tells her, "Call me old-fashioned, but one does not have sex with women who are unconscious."
* Gender-revered example in ''Film/PiratesOfTheCaribbeanTheCurseOfTheBlackPearl'' Elizabeth as a girl [[BeautifulDreamer strokes]] a shipwrecked Will's hair when she first meets him, automatically Will wakes up alarmed and grabs her hand though Elizabeth calms him down. Averted years later in ''Film/PiratesOfTheCaribbeanDeadMansChest'' Elizabeth does the same thing after Jack knocks Will out, waking up and seeing that it's her Will and Elizabeth share a knowing smile.
* A particularly creepy example occurs in ''Film/Terminator2JudgmentDay'', when an asylum guard licks Sarah Conner's face while he thinks she is catatonic.
* The Spanish-language film ''Hable con ella (Film/TalkToHer)'' involves this. A man whose girlfriend was recently injured and fell into a coma meets a male nurse who works at the clinic whose own girlfriend is also in a coma. [[spoiler:The nurse never actually met her before her injury - he's a StalkerWithACrush, and things get {{Squick}}y.]]
* ''Film/DeadMenDontWearPlaid''. "Your breasts shifted out of whack when you fainted. I was adjusting them."
* Not a kiss, per se, but in ''Film/TheBoondockSaints'', Rocco can't resist the opportunity to cop a feel of the breast of a stripper who fainted when the brothers break into a private dance room to kill a sleazy mid-level crime lord (played by Ron Jeremy, no less).
-->'''Connor:''' What the fuck are you doing?!\\
'''Rocco:''' ...I'll tip her!
* The trope is quoted almost verbatim in ''Film/EternalSunshineOfTheSpotlessMind'' when Elijah Wood's character tells his associate that he stole a pair of a girl's panties while she was unconscious during one of their memory-erasing house calls. There's an awkward silence, after which they both laugh hysterically.
* In ''Film/RosemarysBaby'', Rosemary dreams she is being raped by [[{{Satan}} the devil]] [[spoiler:(unfortunately, as it later turns out, this is not a dream)]]. When she wakes up, she discovers that her husband, with whom she had planned to try to conceive that night, has had sex with her while she slept. His justification? "I didn't want to miss 'baby night'."
* Played with twice in ''Film/KissKissBangBang''. Harmony fals asleep at a party and Harry stumbles upon her as a man is feeling up her thigh. Harry challenges the man to a fight, only to get beaten up and learn that the man was Harmony's date. Later on, she faints and Harry notices a spider crawling around her cleavage. Harry tries to swat the spider away, but wakes up Harmony in the process, causing her to think that he was groping her.

* Happens at a party in ''Film/DeadPoetsSociety'' between one of the boys and a girl he's been pining after.
* Gender-flipped in ''Film/SherlockHolmes2009''. Irene kisses Holmes after he passes out from the drug [[SlippingAMickey she spiked him with in a bottle of wine.]]
* Almost happens in ''Film/AnimalHouse,'' but Pinto's [[GoodAngelBadAngel shoulder angel]] talks him out of it (much to the disgust of his shoulder devil).
* This gets played with in the 2014 re-telling, ''Film/{{Maleficent}}''. Here, Phillip is actually embarrassed and reluctant to kiss the unconscious girl, saying he 'wouldn't feel right about it' having only met her once.
* While nothing ''physical'' happens, this trope is subverted in ''Film/TheCottage'', in which two incompetent criminals kidnap the nubile stepdaughter of a mobster for ransom. While carrying her unconscious body upstairs, one of the kidnappers decides to take the moment to eye her up. From his POV, we see his eyes move from her face, down to her chest, and then back to her face again, whereupon he sees she has woken up. The next thing we see is her head making hard contact with his face. Repeatedly.

* The ending of Nicolas Roeg's ''Film/BadTiming''.
* Neither a kiss nor a coma, but in ''Film/TheBoneCollector'', Angelina Jolie's character runs her fingers over the face, neck, and hands of Denzel Washington's paralyzed character after he has had an attack and is unconscious. He wakes up with "There's laws against molesting the handicapped, you know."
* In ''Film/SuckerPunch'', Blue plans to [[spoiler:rape Baby Doll after her lobotomy as revenge, but he's put off by how UncannyValley she is after the procedure]].

* The title character is conceived this way in ''Literature/TheWorldAccordingToGarp''. His father is a former ball turret gunner who has lost essentially all cognitive function; his mother is a nurse who wants a child but not a husband.
* In slasher spoof ''Film/ShriekIfYouKnowWhatIDidLastFridayTheThirteenth'', this is how the teen ButtMonkey Boner ultimately decides to lose his virginity. [[spoiler:He's killed before he gets a chance to rape the girl.]]
* ''Film/{{Adalen 31}}'': A horny young boy in his late teens hypnotizes his girlfriend and, while she's in a trance, strips her nude. The rest of the film is a highly realistic, gritty drama of the working class, so it's tempting to assume that the girlfriend was just faking it and playing along, but nothing in the movie indicates that.
* Rare male example in ''Film/{{Purgatory}}''. Rose kisses Sonny, her love interest who she'd had an AlmostKiss with before, after he's beaten up and seems to be unconscious in the doctor's office. His eyes are half open again when she pulls back.
* There have been two different film adaptations of Japanese novel ''The House of the Sleeping Beauties'', which centers around a bizarre brothel in which the customers pay for the privilege of crawling into bed with naked young women who have been drugged into sleep. In German film ''Film/HouseOfTheSleepingBeauties'', Edmond is a lonely old widower who goes to the brothel, snuggling with and feeling up the naked, sleeping young women, while wondering if it's OK do to more with them. A looser 2011 adaptation, ''Film/{{Sleeping Beauty|2011}}'', does a PerspectiveFlip. The protagonist is a disaffected young woman who takes a job in which she is sedated and [[DirtyOldMan wealthy clients]] are allowed to do whatever they wish with her, with the stipulations that they can't leave a mark and (supposedly) cannot penetrate her.

* This happens in ''Film/NowVoyager'' with Bette Davis.
* A male example in ''Film/BadEducation2004''. After the performance at the drag club, Enrique returns back to his hotel room to have sex with [[DragQueen Zahara]]. When Enrique passes out during oral sex, Zahara ends up having intercourse with him while he's asleep.
* A sweet rather than creepy example occurs at the end of ''Film/BackToTheFuturePartIII'', where Marty [=McFly=] finds his girlfriend Jennifer Parker deeply passed out on her porch swing, having lain there all night and all morning [[FaintInShock in a dead faint from shock]] since ''Part II''. After failing to wake her the normal way, he kisses her on the lips, whereupon she happens to start waking up from her faint and instinctively begins to kiss him back, thinking that her trip to 2015 in ''Part II'' was all a dream.

* ''Film/WeekendAtBernies'': An unstable old flame of the late Bernie Lomax comes into his beach house at the tail end of a party, knife in hand, planning to kill him if he's cheating on her. Our heroes Richard and Larry, figuring that their problem is about to solve itself, back off and direct her to the bedroom... then, while Larry watches from outdoors to see just how she'll react, sees her start to disrobe, believing Bernie is simply passed-out drunk... and then just keeps watching... and by the next scene, it's painfully clear where she was going with that...
* Part of the backstory of how Peter Pan left Neverland in ''Film/{{Hook}}''. He kept visiting Wendy and aged years while she aged decades, until he was an older teenager and she had a granddaughter called Moira of around his age. When he saw the sleeping Moira, he said he wanted to give her a kiss, and brought out the thimble he had once thought was a "kiss". But then he said, no, a real kiss. In the present, they are married.
* The title character wrestles with this phenomenon in ''Film/StrokerAce'', but it's ultimately averted.
* Sting's character in ''Film/{{Brimstone and Treacle}}'' [[spoiler: becomes a caretaker for, and then rapes, a young woman who is in a coma following a car accident.]]
* ''Film/IfLooksCouldKill:'' Kent tries to lick Melissa's ear while she's asleep in the seat next to him.

* Done when Eragon looks upon Arya in [[Literature/{{Eragon}} the first book]] of the Literature/InheritanceCycle while she is passed out. Lampshaded because he feels embarrassed enough to catch himself thinking that. Combine this with an IntimateHealing scene and remind yourself Eragon is a [[HormoneAddledTeenager teenager]].
* From the ''Franchise/StarWarsExpandedUniverse'':
** A sleeping Leia almost gets kissed in ''Literature/SplinterOfTheMindsEye''. Fortunately for her (and the readers, and his own later peace of mind), ''[[{{Twincest}} Luke]]'' resists the impulse, vowing instead to protect her from everything, including himself. In Creator/AlanDeanFoster's defense, the book ''was'' published before they were revealed to be siblings.
** Luke Skywalker kisses Mara Jade while she was sleeping. Don't worry, he kissed her while they were both conscious [[ItWasHisSled by the end of the book.]]
* In ''[[Literature/TheIcewindDaleTrilogy The Halfling's Gem]]'', Drizzt Do'Urden kisses Catti-brie after she has been knocked semi-conscious by a long fall--and she's already involved with someone, no less.
* ''Literature/TheWickedYears'':
** In ''Literature/{{Wicked}}'', it's mentioned that Melena was drugged and [[ChildByRape raped]], which is how Elphaba was conceived. The elixir is also why Elphaba was born with green skin and sharp teeth.
** Happens in ''Literature/SonOfAWitch'', when Candle ''has [[IntimateHealing sex]] with'' the unconscious Liir [[spoiler:and becomes [[ChildByRape pregnant]]. In the end she returns, long enough to dump their [[LamarckWasRight green-skinned daughter]] on him.]]
* Erik the titular ''Literature/ThePhantomOfTheOpera'' starts bathing Christine's temples after the Phantom drugs her. Later Erik even [[BoundAndGagged ties]] Christine up after she knocks ''herself'' out (she tried killing herself faced with the prospect of [[AndNowYouMustMarryMe marrying him]]).
* In ''Literature/{{Lolita}}'', Humbert attempts to [[InvokedTrope invoke]] this trope by giving Lolita some sleeping pills so that he can fondle her without her knowing it. However, the pills turn out to not have as strong an effect as advertised, leaving Lolita just conscious enough for Humbert to decide not to take the risk. (They still do it in the morning, with her allegedly being the one who initiated it.) Later after their relationship breaks down, he forces himself on Lolita when she's ill and too weak to resist him.
* Happens in ''Literature/McTeague'' after the titular character gives Trina anesthetic. It's implied that this is his compromise between doing nothing and raping her.
* In the novel ''Literature/{{Olympos}}'' by Dan Simmons, a man must have sex with a woman in a technology-induced slumber in order to awaken her. He's creeped out by the idea, but manages to perform by thinking about his girlfriend. The woman refers to him as a rapist for the rest of their time together, but doesn't seem to hold it against him.
* ''Take a Girl Like You'' by Kingsley Amis. [[spoiler: Jenny Bunn's would-be boyfriend date-rapes her while she is drunk and passed out.]]
* Ryel Mirai can't resist kissing his unconscious theoretically-love interest in Carolyn Kephart's ''Wysard''. (Resisting any woman isn't his strong point, but most of the others are actively trying to seduce him.)
* Carolyn Chute's ''Merry Men'' has a disturbing version of this. The main character's wife has to have surgery to remove a brain tumor, but she comes out of it brain-damaged and functioning at about the level of a two-year-old and has to be taken care of by her family. Over the course of the book, the husband repeatedly sneaks into his mother-in-law's house and has sex with his wife. It's broadly hinted that the [[WriterOnBoard Writer is On Board]] with this, as one of the few times his wife manages coherent speech is calling out his name during sex.

* In Creator/ChristopherMoore's [[Literature/BloodsuckingFiends vampire novels]], vampires become nonconscious (possibly completely dead) from dawn to sunset. The protagonist once complained to her boyfriend about the time she woke up, sticky, dressed like a [[AllGuysWantCheerleaders cheerleader.]]
* In the backstory of ''Literature/ASongOfIceAndFire'', [[UnluckyChildhoodFriend Lysa Tully]] had sex with [[WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds Petyr 'Littlefinger' Baelish]] twice under dubious circumstances. The first was after a feast when he was [[DrowningMySorrows passed out drunk]] after being rejected by her sister Catelyn. He thought Lysa ''was'' Catelyn. The second time, Petyr was in a hallucinating, semi-conscious state from a feverish wound gained from a duel.
* In the third ''Literature/AnitaBlake'' novel the main vampire character Jean-Claude has to mark the main character before she dies of a monster snake bite. From what one character says it looked like Jean-Claude was struggling with the temptation of having 'his way' with her when she was topless and out cold.
* ''Literature/RuslanAndLudmila'' by Creator/AlexanderPushkin contains a part that the hero rescues his love, and takes her home while she is in an enchanted sleep. Pushkin lampshades the trope by stating that the narrator insisted Ruslan behaved honorably, and he believes that. Later, she is snatched by [[FakeUltimateHero another guy who brings her home]]... not so clear about him, but considering he was in a hurry, it is entirely possible he averted the trope as well.
* In John Barth's ''Letters'', Jerome Bray is depicted as routinely drugging women and raping them so as to get them pregnant. At least three of the main female characters receive this treatment; none of them seem [[AngstWhatAngst terribly upset]] over this, [[KarmaHoudini nothing happens]] to Bray as a result, and one of his victims ends up in his care by the end of the book. All of which lead to the [[DudeNotFunny disquieting notion]] that Barth was intentionally playing this trope [[PlayedForLaughs for laughs]].
* Snow White gets two kisses in her sleep in ''Literature/SixGunSnowWhite''. First when a man comes into her hollow in a mining community, looking to rape her. When he sees her beauty, though, he is overcome by more romantic notions. The second one happens when Deer Boy tries to wake her from her enchanted sleep by kissing her.
* In the novel ''Here We Go Round the Mulberry Bush'' by Hunter Davis, about growing up in Carlisle in the 1960's, the protagonist says he passes the time travelling to school by playing the bus-crash game. That is, he fantasises about if the bush crashed and he was the only person left conscious, which order would he "do" the more attractive (but comatose and unaware) female passengers in?
* ''Literature/{{Neuromancer}}'': A special service at a brothel Molly used to work at, where prostitutes are in comas and mechanically controlled like puppets by a computer. [[spoiler: Riviera does a performance piece based on how her tenure as a meat puppet went horribly wrong.]] The service is first described in "Burning Chrome."
* In "Literature/SnowGlassApples" by Creator/NeilGaiman, it is strongly implied that Snow White's Prince Charming has some kind of necrophilia fetish. [[spoiler: Luckily for him, but not for anyone else, Snow's a vampire.]]
* Close to the end of Literature/UlyssesMoore book series, Julia Covenant appears to be knocked out and Rick Banner, who has a crush on her, kisses her. She knows, but doesn't tell it to him, only to her brother Jason.
* In ''Literature/SwanSong'', Robin kisses Swan while she's unconscious with a fever. She wakes up moments later and slaps him -- albeit for assuming he was a threat rather than for the kiss itself.
* In the ''Literature/{{Discworld}}'' novel ''Literature/{{Wintersmith}}'', we get an interesting case as the candidate himself objects: Reaching the Underworld, Roland is reluctant to kiss the Summer Lady who is deeply asleep. Rob Anybody insists that the narrative traditions demand for the Hero to wake up the unconscious maiden with a kiss. Luckily, a little peck on the cheek does the job.
* ''Literature/MyYearOfRestAndRelaxation'':
** Trevor evidently gets off to getting blowjobs while the narrator pretends to be asleep. [[spoiler:She once wakes up from a blackout in the middle of giving him one.]]
** Referenced when the protagonist arranges for [[spoiler:Ping Xi to attend to her needs while using her as a muse for his next art show while she's blacked out. She isn't concerned he'll do sexual acts with her while she's unaware because she's pretty sure he's gay.]]
* ''Literature/{{Indexing}}'': How Sleeping Beauties work. As said in the second chapter:
--> Reports [[spoiler:from the hospital said that Alicia Connors, our erstwhile]] Sleeping Beauty [[spoiler:was already awake, unaware of the bullet she'd just dodged. She wouldn't need a Prince to save her. She wouldn't]] sleep through her own rape and pregnancy, [[spoiler:or any of the other horrible fates that await the four-tens]].
* In ''Literature/TheIrregularAtMagicHighSchool'', Miyuki often attempts to do things like kiss Tatsuya or snuggle up with him while he sleeps. The author lampshades that [[LovableSexManiac she isn't in her right mind]]. (Given that Tatsuya chooses to share a hotel room with her even after the first time, he probably isn't either.)
* ''Literature/HaruhiSuzumiya'':
** Parodied during the SOS Brigade's student film "The Adventures of Asahina Mikuru". The star is Mikuru as the battle waitress from the future, who faints at one point and is carried to the home of Itsuki Koizumi, her in-movie LoveInterest. After putting her to bed, he silently deliberates over this, and gets very close to kissing her. She is acting, though, and uncomfortably aware of it. He is belatedly interrupted by Yuki Nagato's character, although there was a good chance of our completely disgruntled cameraman (and in-series narrator) Kyon disrupting the scene. And that's not the only creepy part... As Kyon points out, after she is knocked unconscious, Koizumi took her to his house instead of calling an ambulance, [[UndressingTheUnconscious undressed her]], bathed her, and then redressed her before trying to kiss her. When we see the making of the movie, this scene becomes less humorous: Tsuruya and Haruhi spiked Mikuru's drink in order to 'improve her acting', which Kyon realizes from Mikuru's lack of resistance; he refuses to keep filming, and it's the only scene in the series where he becomes seriously angry with Haruhi, to the point of almost [[DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu socking her in the face]] without realizing it before Koizumi stops him.
** Mikuru actually invokes this trope ''on herself'' in Bamboo Leaf Rhapsody. After she and Kyon travel back to [[ArcWords three years ago]], she falls unconscious. Her own future self appears and tells Kyon what to do. As a reward she says that he can kiss her (still unconscious) younger self if he wants to. We don't see what he does, but a lawyer, a philosopher, and a quantum physicist could have great fun getting drunk and discussing the ethical implications of this scenario.

* Sugou in ''Literature/SwordArtOnline'' starts touching Asuna's face while she's still hooked up to life support. Kirigaya (Kirito) gets noticeably upset. For added creep factor, he explains that he has the right to do it, because his company is keeping her alive.

* A {{platonic|LifePartners}} version in ''Series/{{Smallville}}''. Clark kisses an unconscious Chloe on her forehead before [[spoiler:he forces himself to wipe her memories of his secret.]]

* In the ''Series/{{Firefly}}'' episode "[[Recap/FireflyE06OurMrsReynolds Our Mrs. Reynolds]]", when Inara finds Mal unconscious from [[DruggedLipstick Saffron's poisoned kiss]], she kisses him on the lips (mostly in a panic), resulting in paralysis at a most inconvenient time, since some of the lipstick is still on his lips. Afterwards, she denies it ever happened.
* In an episode of ''Series/SaturdayNightLive'', one man mentions to his friends that he's having a sexual relationship with one of his patients that he feels conflicted about. Since you're on this page, you can figure out the punchline to this story on your own.
* In ''Series/UnitedStatesOfTara'' the gay son, Marshall, has the friend he's been crushing on over to his house to watch a movie that was assigned for English class. The friend falls asleep and Marshall works up the nerve to kiss him. His friend wakes up, and kisses him back.

* Subverted in an episode of ''Series/{{Cheers}}''. Sam is alone with a passed-out Rebecca and whispers to himself, "do it!". He proceeds to... dress her up in a bandito costume and draw a moustache on her face.
* Sue White ''impregnates herself with Mac's sperm'' when he's in a coma in ''Series/GreenWing''. Caroline is also seen kissing him and trying to lie next to him.
* One episode of ''Series/{{Friends}}'' has Chandler reveal he kissed a drunk Rachel at a party to get back at Ross for going out with a girl he liked. Ross then reveals that the night of the party was when he first kissed Rachel, while she was unconscious underneath a pile of coats. This is followed by the revelation that he didn't kiss Rachel, he kissed [[BrotherSisterIncest Monica]]
* Subverted in ''Series/{{Northern Exposure}}'' when Maggie is offended that Joel didn't finish what they were doing when she passed out from sleep deprivation.
* Female on male downplayed example in ''Series/StarTrekTheOriginalSeries''. In "[[Recap/StarTrekS2E19APrivateLittleWar A Private Little War]]", Spock has been seriously injured, and is apparently unconscious. [[AllLoveIsUnrequited Nurse Chapel]], whose crush on the [[CluelessChickMagnet Vulcan First Officer]] has been established early in the series, holds his hand for a while. When informed that Spock is actually in a [[MindOverMatter Healing Trance]] and knows she has been holding his hand, she hurriedly backtracks, claiming that "[[BlatantLies a good nurse holds her patients' hands, and there's nothing more to it]]".


* Referenced in the "Very Special Drew" episode of ''Series/TheDrewCareyShow''. Drew is marrying Kate, who's in a coma. She manages to wake up just in time to say "I do". Oswald notes that the honeymoon will be a lot less creepy now.
* Colin Hunt, a recurring character on ''Series/TheFastShow'', attempts to peek up the skirt of an office colleague after she has fallen asleep in a chair (in his house), but she wakes up while he is doing it. It's slightly tempered by the fact that she tells him it's OK and she doesn't mind but he's mortified to be caught.
* An episode of ''Series/{{Fringe}}'' sees Peter visiting a comatose Olivia in the hospital. [[spoiler: after she returned to our world from her visit with William Bell in the parallel dimension in a moving car, resulting in a horrific crash. She had originally been taken from the moving car, and "physics" determined that she return to this universe with the same force as she had originally left.]] She had left a living will with a Do Not Resuscitate order, and was to be taken off of life support the next day. This trope could be considered averted, as when Peter leaned over to give her a (supposed) goodbye kiss, she jolted into consciousness. [[spoiler: while simultaneously speaking the Greek phrase Peter's mother said to him before bed as a boy.]]
* ''Series/Halo2022'': Done in an even creepier way with Adun trying to kiss Dr. Halsey's ExpendableClone, who is not only {{strapped to an operating table}}, but ''[[AndIMustScream conscious and completely paralyzed]]''. Mercifully, Halsey pops in before he does so.
* Matt Jamison's wife Mary in ''Series/TheLeftovers'' became catatonic the day of the Sudden Departure. Three years later, her condition unchanged, she becomes pregnant. Matt insists that she woke up for one night, but he knows how it looks. [[spoiler:Mary later wakes up permanently and confirms Matt was telling the truth.]]
* ''Series/TheNanny'': C.C kisses Mr. Sheffield while he was out cold in the hospital before his appendectomy in the episode "Close Shave".
* The titular character from ''Manga/NodameCantabile'' sneaks a kiss to the sleeping Chiaki's cheek, [[LampshadeHanging pointing out]] this was her chance. Of course, [[spoiler: Chiaki was awake the whole time and he knew Nodame wouldn't have resisted the temptation to kiss him. He let her because he wanted to thank her for everything she had done for him.]]
* In the Japanese drama ''Series/ShokojoSera'' (a remake of ''Literature/ALittlePrincess''), this was done by both Sera and Kaito but both weren't on the lips. Kaito did it first to Sera on the forehead, while he and [[BeautifulDreamer a sleeping Sera]] were waiting for a bus. Sera would do it to [[SleepCute a sleeping Kaito]] on the cheek when she was forced to leave the academy.
* Invoked in an episode of ''Series/TwoAndAHalfMen'', Charlie and Alan play a "word game" consisting of just [[DysfunctionalFamily yelling alphabetical insults at each other]]. When they get to N, Alan yells "Necrophiliac!", and Charlie responds, "She was drunk, not dead. I challenge!".
a joke to demonstrate how boring he is, but it [[ValuesDissonance has not aged well.]]
* In the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4lsZiRRKpvQ "Accountant Bore"]] sketch by ''Series/TheTwoRonnies'' the titular accountant mentions that his wife "was asleep at the time" when his children were conceived. This was meant as

He let her because he wanted to thank her for everything she had done for him.]]

* While Nancy is comatose in ''Series/{{Weeds}}'', Doug takes the opportunity to feel her up and even loosens her hospital gown so he can take a quick peek at her breasts. He just avoids getting caught in the act by Andy and Jill.

* In the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4lsZiRRKpvQ "Accountant Bore"]] sketch by ''Series/TheTwoRonnies'' the titular accountant mentions that his wife "was asleep at the time" when his children were conceived.

* ''Literature/TheBible'' has a female, incestous version in [[BookOfGenesis Genesis 19]]. There are no men around in the wilderness following the escape of Lot and his daughters from the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, so Lot's daughters form a plan. Get Dad so drunk he "was not aware of it when she lay down or when she got up." and have sex with him. This works twice on sucessive nights and they both get pregnant.

* ''VideoGame/QuestForGloryIV'': You are given the opportunity to kiss or even "cop a feel" of a certain vampiress while she's asleep in her coffin. She's not too incredibly amused if you do.
* The FanRemake of ''[[VideoGame/KingsQuestIIRomancingTheThrone King's Quest II]]'' has this as a possibility [[spoiler: but you'll need a different tactic to wake Valanice]].
* ''VideoGame/StarFoxAdventures''. Fox probably would've kissed the unconscious Krystal if she was in reach and Peppy hadn't interrupted.

* The 2006 ''VideoGame/{{Sonic the Hedgehog|2006}}'' game comes to mind, with Princess Elise's [[spoiler: necrobestial kiss with Sonic's dead body]]. In a inversion of the Literature/SleepingBeauty archetype, [[spoiler: her kiss brings him back to life so he can prevent the god of light from destroying all of space and time]].

* In ''VideoGame/Cyberpunk2077'', [[spoiler:[[PlayerCharacter V]]'s MysteriousEmployer Evelyn is revealed to be a sex worker whose cybernetics were disabled in an attack by ''her'' former employers, the Voodoo Boys gang. After this she's left seemingly comatose, which her BadBoss from the brothel takes advantage of. Unbeknownst to him however, [[AndIMustScream she was aware of her surroundings the entire time]]]].
* In ''VisualNovel/YosugaNoSora'', Sora does this to Haruka... oh, and by the way, Haruka is ''her'' {{twin|cest}} {{brother|SisterIncest}}.
* ''VideoGame/ShiningForce II'' for the Sega Genesis presented this, naturally, as the only way to awaken the otherwise comatose Princess of the Granseal Kingdom after the BigBad was beaten once and for all.
* Rachel's gag reel in ''VideoGame/BlazBlueContinuumShift'' has Kokonoe attempting to subdue Ragna via InstantSedation. When Noel asked for her plans about after he took the laced candy (which failed due to Lychee shattering it), Kokonoe let out some very suggestive dialogue (which [[CensoredForComedy the censoring]] only made worse).

* ''VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoIV'': According to his radio show, Lazlow prefers his chicks unconscious.
* In ''VideoGame/KingdomHeartsI'' Riku's attitude towards the unconscious Kairi invokes this, as at one point he makes a grab at the holographic projection of her sleeping form.
* In ''VideoGame/BatmanArkhamCity'' {{Mooks}} will occasionally [[EnemyChatter talk]] about how attractive Mr. Freeze's cryogenically frozen wife is. Other mooks will [[EvenEvilHasStandards call them out]] on this. [[spoiler: It's implied that some of the thugs Joker leaves her with are intending to rape her.]]

* One of the ending cutscenes for ''VideoGame/HitmanBloodMoney'' has Diana kiss Agent 47 as he was lying unconscious during his wake. Turns out the lipstick has the antidote to counter the fake-death serum injected on 47.

* In ''Webcomic/ArthurKingOfTimeAndSpace'', Morgan tells Lancelot this is the only way to save Guenevere. Being Lancelot, he [[http://www.arthurkingoftimeandspace.com/3025.htm finds another way]].
* In ''{{Webcomic/Homestuck}}'', characters may revive dead or dying friends by kissing them. This trope is averted when [[spoiler: Vriska is nearly killed by Aradia, and Tavros has the opportunity to kiss her while she is unconscious. However, despite the urging of his patron Dersite, Tavros does not have the courage to kiss her.]]
* ''Webcomic/NotQuiteDailyComic'':
** Lampshaded in [[http://www.truefork.org/Art/comic/cindex.php?556 this episode]] where [[spoiler: Malène feigns unconsciousness but S-ko feigns not to notice and raises moral scruples.]]
** The issue is also [[http://www.truefork.org/Art/comic/cindex.php?369 raised]] in the context of the ''IntimateHealing'' of Succubus Malène.
* ''Webcomic/TowerOfGod'': Lurker fondles Yeon's breast while she rendered will-less by a PuppeteerParasite.

* In ''Webcomic/SeiyuuCrush'', Kaji falls asleep after an energy-drink high. After carrying him home, [=KoiZ=] decides the best way to wake a sleeping innocent is to [[http://seiyuucrush.net/index.php?page=261 kiss him]]. [[SubvertedTrope Subverted]] when [[spoiler: he wakes up and sneezes on him.]]

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x-d7Wof8QtY This]] ''[[Webcomic/SaturdayMorningBreakfastCereal SMBC theater]]'' has God explaining his plan to impregnate Mary while she's asleep.

* While much, ''much'' lighter than the fanfic example with them above, WebVideo/TheNostalgiaChick and WebVideo/TheNostalgiaCritic did this to each other in her "Bratz-Transformers" arc. First, she strokes the back of his neck creepily while giggling after she chloroforms him. Later, when she's unconscious and he's close behind, he pinches her ass. [[ShipTease No wonder the shippers were delighted]].

* In "Snow, Glass, Apples" by Creator/NeilGaiman, it is strongly implied that Snow White's Prince Charming has some kind of necrophilia fetish. [[spoiler: Luckily for him, but not for anyone else, Snow's a vampire.]]

* In ''LightNovel/TheIrregularAtMagicHighSchool'', Miyuki often attempts to do things like kiss Tatsuya or snuggle up with him while he sleeps. The author lampshades that [[LovableSexManiac she isn't in her right mind]]. (Given that Tatsuya chooses to share a hotel room with her even after the first time, he probably isn't either.)

[[folder:Live Action TV]]

* In the ''Series/{{Firefly}}'' episode "Our Mrs. Reynolds," when Inara found Mal unconscious from [[DruggedLipstick Saffron's poisoned kiss]], she kissed him on the lips - mostly in a panic - resulting in paralysis at a most inconvenient time, since some of the lipstick was still on his lips. Afterwards, she denies it ever happened.

* ''Series/{{Torchwood}}'''s Jack does this to Ianto in a very unprofessional "KissOfLife" fashion.

* Female on male downplayed example in ''Series/StarTrekTheOriginalSeries.'' In ''A Private Little War,'' Spock has been seriously injured, and is apparently unconscious. [[AllLoveIsUnrequited Nurse Chapel,]] whose crush on the [[CluelessChickMagnet Vulcan First Officer]] has been established early in the series, holds his hand for a while. When informed that Spock is actually in a [[MindOverMatter Healing Trance]] and knows she has been holding his hand, she hurriedly backtracks, claiming that "[[BlatantLies a good nurse holds her patients hands, and there's nothing more to it.]]".

* ''Series/{{The Nanny}}'': C.C kisses Mr. Sheffield while he was out cold in the hospital before his appendectomy in the episode "Close Shave".

* ''Series/Halo2022''. Done in an even creepier way with Adun trying to kiss Dr. Halsey's ExpendableClone, who is not only {{strapped to an operating table}}, but ''[[AndIMustScream conscious and completely paralyzed]]''. Mercifully, Halsey pops in before he does so.

** Reversed in ''End of Evangelion'' when Shinji doesn't kiss her but instead [[spoiler: [[ADateWithRosiePalms masturbates]] over Asuka's comatose body. Even he points out that he is "the lowest" ("so [[PrecisionFStrike fucked]] up" in the English dub) afterwards.]] She [[spoiler:(or a hallucination of her)]] later states she knows what he did, and sneers at Shinji for doing so.

* In ''Literature/{{Lolita}}'', Humbert attempts to [[InvokedTrope invoke]] this trope by giving Lolita some sleeping pills so that he can fondle her without her knowing it. However, the pills turn out to not have as strong an effect as advertised, leaving Lolita just conscious enough for Humbert to decide not to take the risk. (They still do it in the morning, with her allegedly being the one who initiated it.)

* ''Series/Halo2022''. Done in an even creepier way with Adun trying to kiss Dr. Halsey's ExpendaleClone, who is not only {{strapped to an operating table}}, but ''[[AndIMustScream conscious and completely paralyzed]]''. Mercifully, Halsey pops in before he does so.

* ''Series/Halo2022''. Done in an even creepier way with Adun trying to kiss Dr. Halsey's clone, who is not only {{strapped to an operating table}}, but ''[[AndIMustScream conscious and completely paralyzed]]''. Mercifully, Halsey pops in before he does so.

* ''Film/HorribleBosses'' has a situation where a female dentist molests her employee while he's unconscious, making it look like he's having an affair, and uses the photos to blackmail him. [[spoiler: In an example of LaserGuidedKarma, at the end of the movie he sets up a sting with some friends, getting footage of her attempted molestation of a patient, in order to blackmail ''her'' into backing off.]]

* In the second light novel of ''LightNovel/TheFamiliarOfZero'', Saito started undressing Louise while she was asleep so he could have sex with her.

* ''LightNovel/FullMetalPanic'':
** Kaname [[AlmostKiss almost kisses Sousuke]] after he fell asleep when she finished cutting his hair. She restrains herself, however, because she felt embarrassed that she would want to take advantage of him in his sleep. So instead, she stops herself by [[{{Tsundere}} dunking his head in water]].
** Tessa has no qualms about trying to take advantage of Sousuke while he's sleeping. The first time, she actually ''does'' manage to sneak into his bed. The second time, however, she's shown to quietly try to sneak to him, only to be caught by Mao (who proceeds to handcuff herself to her, so as to make sure she doesn't try anything funny with Sousuke while he's unconscious).
** Tessa also tries to kiss Sousuke in ''Anime/FullMetalPanicFumoffu'' when he was dragged unconscious out of the school pool after belly-flopping in to try and save her. She loudly and dramatically declares that he needs CPR and as she leans in to put her mouth to his, Kaname pulls her back by the hair and angrily points out that he doesn't need it.
** While in ''The Second Raid'' OVA ("The Battlegroup Commander's Sort of Boring Day") Mao is seen [[LesYay groping Tessa's breasts]] after she'd passed out from drinking too much. [[GirlOnGirlIsHot Imagine for a moment]] [[DoubleStandard if this were Kurz instead of Mao...]]

* ''LightNovel/GoodLuckNinomiyaKun'':
** Shungo nearly does this to Reika, thinking it necessary to revive her. When she wakes up in his arms minutes later: ''"What are you doing, Ninomiya Shungo?! Don't tell me you've been doing [[SexualEuphemism this and that]] while I was unconscious? ...Actually, do it while I can remember!"''
** She herself attempts to do this to Shungo, and possibly other things. Except he defends himself against her ''while he's sleeping''.

* ''LightNovel/HaruhiSuzumiya'':
** Parodied during the student film episode "The Adventures of Asahina Mikuru". The star is Mikuru as the battle waitress from the future, who faints at one point and is carried to the home of Itsuki Koizumi, her in-movie LoveInterest.

We don't see what he does, but a lawyer, a philosopher, and a quantum physicist could have great fun getting drunk and discussing the ethical implications of this scenario.

* ''LightNovel/{{Slayers}} Next'': Zelgadis, due to being 1/3rd Golem (he's also 1/3rd Demon and 1/3rd Human) is forced to become a ship's 'anchor' in order for Lina to catch a lake dragon. This, however, does not go very well the first few times, and Zelgadis ends up unconscious and seemingly drowned. However, at Amelia's suggestion of administering CPR, we see that Zelgadis is in fact, awake, or had just awakened, due to him blushing at the scenario of Amelia planting her lips on his, even if it's to save his life...however, when he cracks his eyes open, instead of Amelia, it's the elderly Chef who is about to administer the 'kiss of life', and he lays one right on poor Zelgadis.

* Sugou in ''LightNovel/SwordArtOnline'' starts touching Asuna's face while she's still hooked up to life support. Kirigaya (Kirito) gets noticeably upset. For added creep factor, he explains that he has the right to do it, because his company is keeping her alive.

* In ''LightNovel/LordElMelloiIICaseFiles'', after catching Gray staring at a drunk, passed-out Waver for a bit too long (out of concern for his health, though the anime adaptation suggests through [[FemaleGaze its framing]] that she might have [[BeautifulDreamer other]] [[EatingTheEyeCandy reasons]]), suggests that she ought to take advantage of his state and kiss him. Instead, Gray rattles Add's cage to shut him up and (in the light novel) attempts to manually defrown Waver in his sleep ([[PerpetualFrowner to little avail]]).

* In the GagSub The Adventures of Yuki Nagato of ''LightNovel/HaruhiSuzumiya'', "the narrator" directly references this trope.

* In the ''Literature/ThePhantomOfTheOpera'' AlternateUniverse fic ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2237049/1/Erik_The_Vampire_Hunter Erik the Vampire Hunter]]'', Erik is in the hospital, unconscious. Christine feels guilty that he was injured protecting her, so she kisses him, thinking he'll never know. When he wakes up, he tastes something sweet and cherry-flavored on his lips. He later finds out what kind of lip gloss Christine wears...

* Referenced in the "Very Special Drew" episode of the ''Series/TheDrewCareyShow''. Drew is marrying Kate, who's in a coma. She manages to wake up just in time to say "I do". Oswald notes that the honeymoon will be a lot less creepy now.

* When Souichi in ''Manga/TheTyrantFallsInLove'' becomes so drunk that he forgets to lock the door to his bedroom before going to sleep, Morinaga decides that this is the perfect opportunity to steal a few kisses from him. Souichi's murmuring of Morinaga's name in his sleep only stimulates Morinaga into performing increasingly more explicit actions...until Souichi wakes up. Cue ArmorPiercingSlap.

* Rose Walker is the result of this in ''ComicBook/TheSandman'' series. The imprisonment of Dream causes several people across the world to fall asleep indefinitely. One of these is a woman who is a Vortex (like a Black Hole of dreams). Dream's sibling Desire fathers a daughter by this unconscious Vortex, and ''her'' daughter takes her Grandmother's place as the new Vortex.

* In ''ComicBook/LegionOfSuperHeroes'' story ''ComicBook/TheGreatDarknessSaga'', Lightning Lad wakes up from a fever-induced coma to save Saturn Girl and ComicBook/CosmicBoy from a Servant of Darkness, and then he passes out again. In gratitude, Saturn Girl kisses him while he's lying asleep.

->''"Wanna know the best thing about unconscious chicks? They can't say no."''\\
''(people stare at him in disgust)''\\
''"What?! Oh yeah, like I'm the only one thinking it."''

* In ''WesternAnimation/XMen'', Morph fools Gambit by turning into Rogue and flirting with him, implying her touch was no longer fatal, while advising she'd be napping in the rec room, where the real Rogue was asleep. Gambit took the bait and tried to wake up Rogue with a kiss. The move knocked Gambit cold for half the episode and woke up a very frustrated Rogue.

* Played for laughs in the ''Anime/ExcelSaga'' intro, when Watanabe almost does this to [[IllGirl Hyatt]], but she slams him into a wall.
