This is shown to be an unhealthy mindset, but when Tikki tries reassuring her that she's allowed to be angry over everything Lila's done to her, Marinette dismisses that as her kwami being [[NotHimself under the akuma's influence]].
* In ''[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/20744306 running through rose thorns]]'', this trope is criticized. Apparently the anguish of being successfully framed for '''assault''' doesn't go away within days, [[SarcasmMode who knew]]?
-->'''Marinette:''' Alya ''knows'' I didn't do anything, but she still talks about me needing to get over my jealousy and forgive Lila and be more welcoming to her, like I'm just supposed to forget any of it happened.

* In the sequel to ''Fanfic/ProjectSunflower'', after months of silent treatment, Meadowlark walks in on Erin having dinner with Marigold at Ditzy and Dinky's house, in violation of Meadowlark's demand for Erin to stay away from her daughter. It leads to a confrontation between Ditzy and Meadowlark the next day, and when the latter threatens to break up Marigold and Dinky's friendship if Erin doesn't move house, Erin snaps and tells her that she's given them more than enough time. "If you want our friendship to be over, that's fine! Just tell me so I stop hanging on and hoping you'll forgive me one day. But I won't let you blame me for your decisions!"

* A more justified example than most in ''Fanfic/CatarinaClaesMustDie'': [[OriginalCharacter Henrietta]] is the reincarnation of a horribly bullied otaku who found some InUniverseCatharsis in getting the Bad Ends in ''Fortune Lover'' and seeing [[AlphaBitch Catarina]] get killed. When she reincarnates in the game's world, she refuses to accept, against all evidence, that ''this'' version of Catarina is [[KindheartedSimpleton completely]] [[AllLovingHero different]] from the game version, and refuses to let go of her grudge, to the point of [[spoiler:plotting to kill Catarina herself]].

* ''Fanfic/OnlyFlowersFall'': Lillie's refusal to forgive Lusamine for [[AbusiveParents abusing and]] [[ParentalNeglect neglecting her]] gets her judged harshly by those who don't know the full story, as they only see a daughter rejecting her ailing mother.

* ''Fanfic/RosarioVampireBrightestDarkness'':
** In Act II, a blood transfusion from Kokoa turns Tsukune into a ghoul, and the first thing the ghoul does is murder Apoch and Astreal in cold blood. When the two are resurrected in Act III, Astreal, after discovering that Kokoa was the one who did so, albeit accidentally, tries to shoot Kokoa dead on more than one occasion, and is called out on it by the others every single time; even Apoch, who ''also'' blames Kokoa for their deaths, disapproves of Astreal trying to shoot Kokoa.
** In Act VI, Talon Ryashen is out to kill everyone who was ''ever'' a part of Fairy Tale for ''any'' reason because they kidnapped him off the streets and turned him into a HalfHumanHybrid. It's not enough that the ones who were truly responsible for his transformation are already dead; Talon blames ''everyone'' in Fairy Tale for his condition, regardless if they were simply receptionists or {{Unwitting Pawn}}s, and strives to kill them all. For this reason, even Tsukune's group (sans Kyouko) deem him a violent psychopath who needs to be stopped.
