The Elfen Lied fic Family Sticks Together has its fair share of heartwarming moments.
- The first is in chapter 4, when Kaede asks Alex if he will be her brother and Alex agrees.
- In chapter 14, after Mayu tearfully confides her abusive past to Alex, he is moved to tears and gives her a Cooldown Hug, reassuring her that she isn't alone, that she has people who truly care for her, and offers to be her friend.
