Those with No Sense of Personal Space in Fan Works.


Crossovers
  • brilliant lights will cease to burn (by my hand i'll reignite them): The very minute she meets him, Mei immediately gets into Izuku's face and starts feeling him up in order to take measurements for his costume. She openly admits that invading other's privacy is one of her favorite hobbies, coming in second only after inventing.
  • Children of an Elder God: Asuka is not familiarized with the concept of "personal space". In her first appearance in chapter 4, she quickly latched on to Kaji. And later she stayed close to Shinji and wrapped an arm around his, despite barely knowing Shinji at that point:
    Asuka quickly stepped up to Shinji's side, taking his arm in hers, and strolled along with Kaji and Misato.
  • Dungeon Keeper Ami has Tserk, a tentacle monster who was one of the first minions at the service of the sailor senshi. He likes fondling and cuddling with people, whether they like it or not. This got him punished by Mercury a couple of times, mostly by forcing him to cuddle with people nobody would like to cuddle with. Like an Ax-Crazy barbarian, or a very angry Horned Reaper.
  • Equestria Girls: A Fairly Odd Friendship: Gary and Betty. This annoys Sunset and gets the even less-patient Gilda to slug one of them.
  • Signs of Snow has the highly-communal Andorians treating the whole idea of privacy as something insulting and obscene, with Shran openly deriding the doctor's asking for him to step back a little.
  • A Starstruck, Phantasmic Romance: Starfire is extremely over-affectionate and obsessively clingy to Danny, although she eventually calms down. Danny himself becomes extremely clingy towards Starfire in The Switch, thanks to Desiree's magic.

Assassin's Creed

  • In Unintended Consequences, Shay has no problem with diving into the heads of others in order to get what he wants, or taking control of their bodies when they "aren't using them".

Death Note

  • Ryuk in the Crack Fic A Charmed Life. It never occurs to him that sticking his face in Light's chest might not be appropriate.

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure

  • Stars, Eyes of Heaven pins this as a common trait of Stand users. Since Stands usually manifest right next to their user, the person gets used to sharing their personal space. This tends to wig out non-Stand users who are used to being able to retreat from contact if necessary. Jotaro is especially bad about this, because he combines this trope with being tall, muscular, and having a Face of a Thug.

The Legend of Zelda

  • In The Legend of Zelda: Paradise Calling, Navi has no qualms about starting a conversation with Link while he's in the bath, saying it's nothing she hasn't seen before. She also points out that he never had a problem with bathing in the hot springs with the Kokiri.

Miraculous Ladybug

  • Juleka vs. the Forces of the Universe:
    • One of Chat Noir's favorite 'flirting tactics' is forcing his way into Ladybug's personal space. He is fully aware of how much she dislikes this, and makes very clear that he does not care. Her opinion only matters when she agrees with him; on subjects such as this, he dismisses her discomfort.
    • He also feels free to treat any other girls this way as part of his 'charming' persona. When Purple Tigress debuts, he glares her down before realizing that she's a heroine and dismisses her as a potential romantic rival, at which point he immediately starts forces his way into her space as well.
    • During the fight against All-Seer, he outright refuses to follow Ladybug's plan to flank their opponent in favor of sticking close to her side so he can keep flirting with her.
  • Scarlet Lady:
    • Chloé is all over this. While Adrien is her favorite victim, and she loves to hang off his arm whenever she gets the chance to latch onto it, she also treats any guy she's interested in the same way. Such as Luka and XY. Her primary justification for this is one of her personal rules, specifically Rule 72: All guys have to be crazy about her. And in her mind, her clinging to all the boys she likes is the same as them being attracted to her.
    • Chloé acts the exact same way as Scarlet Lady, towards the exact same targets, without a single thought towards concealing her secret identity. This has only succeeded in establishing the Nominal Heroine as another Abhorrent Admirer.
    • Vincent Asa's Establishing Character Moment has him latching onto Jagged Stone and trying to take a selfie together despite having been repeatedly told the rock star doesn't want him taking any photos. He claims this will prove that they're "super friends", blithely ignoring Jagged Stone snarling that they're not friends and he doesn't want him anywhere near him.
    • Wayhem acts much the same way towards Adrien, to the point that the conflict in "Gorizilla" is kicked off by Wayhem recognizing a disguised Adrien, taking a selfie with him, and immediately posting it on social media. To Wayhem's credit, unlike Chloé and Vincent, he actually has a Jerkass Realization about his behavior and ultimately apologizes for his actions.

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic

  • In Chrysalis Visits The Hague, Chrysalis becomes increasingly (literally, physically) clingy in her interactions with her lawyer Estermann. The implications that these are the actions of the G-rated succubus that she was in the show are rather plain.
  • In Huggled, all of the pegasi in Ponyville, for some reason, have gathered overnight and decided that they need to constantly give hugs to every other pony in town, whether the other ponies want it or not. It turns out that this is the result of Rarity botching a spell that was meant to help her pegasus coltfriend Thunderlane with his "intimacy issues".
  • Sophistication and Betrayal: Cashmere tends to get very touchy-feely with others, especially with Rarity. At the same time, however, she gets very annoyed with anyone who dares to make the same sort of impositions upon her.

Neon Genesis Evangelion

  • Advice and Trust:
    • Asuka. Even before getting together with Shinji, she used to invade other people's personal space aggressively and spontaneously, especially if she was interested in them.
    • All Shinji's female classmates with a crush on him tend to get closer than Shinji would like, wpecially Chihiro Tanaka, who does not seem to get the "personal space" concept. In chapter 6 she gets Asuka mad when she gets way too close to Shinji.
      Her beloved baka was under siege by at least half a dozen of the usual Harpies, led by that bitch Tanaka. Shinji sat nervously with his back to the fence, surrounded by pretty young girls. Geek-Stooge sat next to him, staring just as nervously at the surrounding ring of girls. Luckily for him, they were ignoring him in favor of staring hungrily at Shinji. Shinji had less than a meter of space around him. Tanaka herself was leaning way into Shinji's personal space, reaching a hand out to touch his face oh no we are not having that!
  • Neon Genesis Evangelion: Genocide: After the Angel War, Asuka is too broken and angry to care about things such as respecting other people's personal bubbles. When she wants to tell you something, she gets very close.
  • Once More With Feeling (Crazy-88): When Asuka meets Shinji, she immediately and aggressively steps into his personal space to study him. During their posterior interactions, she tends to get extremely close to Shinji.

A Song of Ice and Fire

  • The Mountain and the Wolf: The Wolf tends to do this constantly to allies and enemies both, and to great effect given how huge he is. Strangely, he never seems to solely rely on physical intimidation, often speaking to the other person as though in normal conversation.
