* ''Fanfic/TheRigelBlackChronicles'':
** Harriett brews a Potentialis Potion that is meant to reveal a witch or wizard's magical gifts. However, it appears to have been more potent than intended, and actually gives -- or at least unlocks -- gifts that weren't there before. After seeing [[PowerIncontinence what happened to one of her friends]], she's too scared to take it herself.
** Sixteen-year-old Tom Riddle created the Diary [[spoiler: with the intent of ensuring he never became complacent, because the Diary-construct was a snapshot of his personality and would never change]]. Which means that when his older and more experienced self decides that [[spoiler: maybe some of his decisions at age sixteen weren't the best, the construct doesn't want to hear it and strikes out on its own]].

* The premise of ''FanFic/WishCarefully'' is that, instead of taking up the fight, Harry Potter surrendered Wizarding England to Voldemort and the Death Eaters, arranging for everyone else that was loyal to the Light to be evacuated. The Death Eaters now rule England without any opposition or Muggle-blooded taint... with [[RealityEnsues all of the problems that would naturally come with what they wanted]]. Voldermort's England has no genetic diversity to prevent inbreeding defects, no working class, no skilled professionals, and an economic infrastructure that can't support them. On top of that, their leader is a murderous psychopath who starts making Dark Marks burn on people just to stave off his boredom.

* In ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/11728619/1/Community-Service Community Service]]'', most Death Eaters escaped Azkaban after Voldemort's first fall by getting sentences to two years community service, and Voldemort, as in canon, has cursed the position of teacher of Defence Against the Dark Arts at Hogwarts to neutralize whoever held it before the first term ended. Then Dumbledore had the brilliant idea of having said Death Eaters spend their sentence as DADA teachers: the lucky ones are the two who merely lost their magic.
* The dragons of ''FanFic/RainbowDoubleDashsLunaverse'' are a DyingRace precisely ''because'' they have such impressive natural advantages. While most races must band together for trade and protection, a dragon's only need is for rocks to eat and they are so powerful that by far the biggest danger any dragon faces is another dragon. As a result of this, dragons have no society to speak of. They don't trust each other, and because they don't trust each other, they don't work together. Their whelps are essentially abandoned to fend for themselves, since no adult would take in a whelp for fear of that whelp stealing some of their hoard. Only a handful of dragons can even read or write.
* This is played with in the ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'' fanfic ''How To Kidnap A Princess'' where Rainbow Dash and Pinkie attempt to kidnap Twilight Sparkle in order to convince her that her castle's security is too light.

It not only works, but [[spoiler: works out so well, she end up on the moon!!! with no feasible way of getting back down.]]
* In ''FanFic/ProfessorArc'' this trope makes up the basics of the plot. Just like in [[{{WebAnimation/RWBY}} base material]], Jaune manages to fake his transcripts and get into Beacon... except here it works so well, that it lands him a job as a ''teacher''. [[HilarityEnsues You can probably figure out what comes out of it]]. Later on, [[BecomingTheMask his ruse becomes so successful]], [[spoiler: that when the only way to defeat Cinder's plan is to confess, he is ''completely disbelieved'' by [[InspectorJavert General Ironwood]], who sees Jaune as a dangerous mastermind]].
* In the fanfic ''Zootopia: Lone Digger'' (a crossover between the [[Disney/{{Zootopia}} film]] and music video for the song by Music/CaravanPalace), a landlord is trying to close down the Lone Digger Club by arranging a brawl between patrons. Instead, he gets the bloody slaughter depicted in the music video.
* In ''[[FanFic/ChristianPotterChandler Christopher Weston Chandler & Magi-chan's Stone]]'', Bob, sick of dealing with Chris, wishes the wizards would kidnap Chris (though he reconsiders after talking to one). They do take Chris away, but he ends up going to Hogwarts. Meaning he'll come back with Bob helpless to his antics.
* ''FanFic/TheRavensPlan'' opens with the last survivors of Westeros holding a LastStand against the Night King's forces while Bran and Melisandre conduct a ritual to [[PeggySue send them all back in time so they can change things]]. This spell is powered by blood, and [[DidntThinkThisThrough no one took into account]] all the blood the defenders would be spilling, leading to the ritual being supercharged. So, yes, it does succeed in sending all its targeted people back, it's just that a ''lot'' of other people also get sent back, throwing the plan OffTheRails.
* In ''Fanfic/NeitherABirdNorAPlaneItsDeku'', Bakugou demands that Izuku train for the entrance exam because there's no way someone who spent ten years trying ''not'' to become a Hero is going to get in. Izuku ends up taking that advice [[spoiler:and walks away with the highest score in the exam's history. Worse still, his actions as TheParagon also inspired everyone to start helping each other, which knocks Bakugou down to the bottom of the Top 10 rankings.]]
* In ''Fanfic/BrilliantLightsWillCeaseToBurn'', Izuku calls the cops after busting an underground fighting and human trafficking ring to let them clean the place up. He did ''not'' expect them to send [[spoiler:[[WorldsStrongestMan All Might]], who then proceeded to cut off Izuku's only avenue of escape.]]
* ''Fanfic/{{Dial}}'': Titania attempts to use her love powers on [[WesternAnimation/Ben10AlienForce Rath!Dial]]. This works. Unfortunately, Rath, as an Appoplexian, believes that the most traditional, romantic thing you can do to someone you love is to ''beat the tar out of them in a battle.''
* ''FanFic/TheDarkLordsOfNerima'': After failing to kill the Sailor Senshi and subsequently fleeing, the youma Beneda falls in with Ryouga and Ranma in the hope that they'll kill her enemies for her. This leads to them defying all of her expectations by taking on Jadeite and winning, then eventually taking the fight to the Dark Kingdom itself.
* In Chapter 55 of ''[[https://my.w.tt/P3thU3imbU In The Dark]]'', [[Music/SpiceGirls Geri]] was able to get Melanie to see a hypnotist in hopes of getting any of her memories. Since there was a court official, it would help ensure that Otis Darwin pays for what he did to Melanie. Cue the MassOhCrap once Melanie realizes what she had revealed.
