* The mystery that bridges the two original ''VideoGame/TwilightSyndrome'' volumes starts through Mika deciding to engage in a rumor that scribbling messages on a desk in the high school library will result in an unseen party writing back, which she quickly confirms to be true. What takes longer to become evident is that [[spoiler:her correspondent is the ghostly memory of Sakura Himegami, a dead student from decades past who was part of a lineage of girls who were doomed to be [[HumanSacrifice sacrificed]] in order to spare others from misfortune, and now exist as a collective of unhappy spirits who cling desperately to any vestige of the living world they can contact— and that her influence over Mika grows to be such that she is able to spirit her away into the mysterious, ethereal realm she exists in, prompting her friends to figure out a way to come rescue her.]]

* ''Fanfic/HowFriendshipAccidentallySavedMagicalBritain'': The Weasley twins' interactions with Tom Riddle via the Diary Horcrux have a similar effect to chatting via letters or email or what have you, in that the only things each side knows about the other come solely from what they write to each other. Fred and George write collectively in the journal under the name "Forge", not wanting to give a possibly Dark artifact their real names, and Tom, guessing correctly that the name is fake but unable to tell just who and how many are behind the name, is none the wiser and thinks for most of the school year that "Forge" is one person. Tom also finds it suspicious just how often the Diary is written in, since the twins take turns with it during their respective free periods, and asks them how they're managing to keep up with their studies. On the other hand, Tom sometimes goes on long monologues about one twin's particular area of expertise while the other twin has the Diary, such as going on about arithmancy to George, forcing him to hurriedly transcribe the monologue for Fred's later perusal before the words vanish.

* ''WebOriginal/{{Serina}}'': The gravediggers communicate with one another using images that they draw into the trees and rocks that border their territories. This allows them to form relationships with each other without ever physically meeting. In fact, doing so is necessary as they are naturally solitary despite their sapience and if they were to ever meet outside of mating season then their territorial instincts would kick in and they'd get into a violent fight.

* In the very beginning of ''{{LightNovel/Durarara}}'', this is basically Izaya's EstablishingCharacterMoment. He uses the internet to be a sympathetic ear for a depressed teenaged girl named Rio Kamichika and talks her into a mutual suicide, then has her kidnapped and rescued, ''then'' tells Rio what he did, and '''then''' he tries to lure her into committing suicide for real by saying not even ''he'' cares if she lives or dies. All for shits and giggles. [[spoiler: She's saved by Celty, but ''barely''.]]
