History Heartwarming / FanWorks

* Yakko teaching Dot to walk in the The Middle Warner Sibling's ''WesternAnimation/{{Animaniacs}}'' fic, called ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3703685/1/Family Family]]''. Then there's "Yakko" being Dot's first word. Also, when the Warners finally access their Hammerspace. There are lot of other [[SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments moments]], but be prepared for a lot of TearJerker moments to go with them, particularly in the early chapters.

* The oneshot ''[[http://archiveofourown.org/works/442327 Heroics]]'', in which Azula shows her soft spot for her niece. The little girl falls off the pier into a deep lake, and ''immediately'' Azula sprints across the pier and dives in after her, in full armor. Ty Lee jumps in after both of them and pulls them out of the water, and for the rest of the day Zuko's daughter sticks close to her aunt.
--> '''Ty Lee''': ''(hugs Azula)'' Azula, that was so brave and stupid and amazing!
--> '''Azula''': That is...the last time I do anything heroic.
--> '''Zuko''': ''(hugs her too)'' You're the best sister in the whole world.
--> ''(Fire Nation Royal Family hugfest ensues)''

--> '''Ryu''': Are you okay? I'm sorry. We shouldn't fight. ''(hugs his sister)''
--> '''Miyako''': ''([[AffectionateGestureToTheHead ruffles his hair]])'' I'm sorry too, Ryu. I'm your big sister. I'm supposed to protect you, not try to hurt you. Forgive me?
--> '''Ryu''': Mmmhmm. Love you, Miya.
--> '''Miyako''': Love you too, Ryu.
--> '''Mai''': ''(to Zuko)'' See, they'll be all right.
--> '''Zuko''': They'll be all right.

--> It wasn't until a couple years after the war that Aang finally mustered up the courage to admit that he had already known about sex before Sokka told him. What resulted was one of the most embarrassing displays of dismay that he had ever experienced which led him to believe that, perhaps, people just ''expected'' Aang to have that kind of ignorance. He didn't get why, though.
--> If anything, the one who knows the ''most'' about love is the Avatar.

* The ''WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender'' fic ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5266050/1/Guide_Me_Home Guide Me Home]]'' is chock full of them. The last 5 chapters or so are one big CMOH. Some highlights include:

* The ''VideoGame/BeyondGoodAndEvil'' fic "[[http://z6.invisionfree.com/BGE2_Revolution/index.php?showtopic=540&st=0 Human, All Too Human]]" has a beautiful moment where Jade is worrying that her connection to the [=DomZ=] makes her too dangerous to be around. She asks Double H if he will protect her orphans from anything--even if that something happens to be her. He fiercely, adamantly, ''beautifully'' refuses:

* In the ''Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer'' story ''[[http://www.tthfanfic.org/Story-8932-10/Psyckosama+Hunter.htm Hunter]]'', unlike canon where Faith's living conditions were pretty much ignored, when the Scoobies find out she's living in a ratty motel (which vampires can enter without invitation) they actually argue with each other over who gets to have her sleep at their place. Buffy eventually wins and when Faith asks if her mother will mind, Buffy simply tells her, "When I tell her where you were living, she'll probably ground me for not inviting you to stay with us sooner."
* ''[[http://www.tthfanfic.org/Story-30444/ChefJackButler+Vintage+Season.htm Vintage Season]]'', a ''Series/BuffyTheVampireSlayer'' PeggySue story, features Dawn Summers as the lone survivor after the [[EldritchAbomination First Evil]] wins the final fight in Sunnydale. She gets sent back in time to fix things, with a plan that include '''''not''''' letting anyone know she's from the future. This plan goes right out the window the moment she encounters Joyce Summers, her mother, whom she last saw in a morgue. Joyce has no idea who this unknown teenager is, or why the girl is clinging to her for dear life. She just knows that the girl is in tears, and needs a mom to comfort her. So she comforts her, no questions asked. The chapter this meeting takes place in is appropriately titles "Coming Home".

* Chapter 7 of the ''WesternAnimation/CodenameKidsNextDoor'' fan fiction ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5841057/1/Operation_FRAGMENT Operation: Fragment]]'' has the tough-as-nails and deeply troubled teenage Wally Beatles go monster hunting with his 8-year-old brother Joey to distract him from their parents' fighting downstairs.

* This ''Franchise/{{Transformers}}'' [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2977822/1/Fidelis story]], Optimus Prime was feeling tired and doubtful about his leadership when he received a tape record of Spike doing an assignment on loyalty and interviewing several Autobots. All the Autobots gave him several answers that didn't quite make sense, but did define their relationships with each other. Finally, Spike interviewed Smokescreen and expressed amazement at how Optimus was able to keep all the Autobots together, despite all of them being so different. Smokescreen explained that it's what a Prime has to do, by being the first one into battle and the last one out, by having courage to face others and himself, by being loyal to the Autobot cause and the Autobots themselves.

--> The ship's power systems came up all around them, the new engines vibrating the decks lightly. Lexius took a last look at the silvery world before them. Cybertron slid by sideways as the ship cleared its dry dock, then disappeared from view as the ship turned away, preparing to leave orbit. Lexius didn't look back, but he framed the sight in his mind, a sparkling jewel, something he wanted to remember, something he would carry with him through all his future battles.
--> Sojourn thrust herself to the stars.
* This ''Film/Transformers2007'' fic called ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5182664/1/When_I_Grow_Up When I Grow Up]]'' about Annabelle's class being asked what they want to be when they grow up and Annabelle musing about her father and Ironhide's work. When it came for her turn, she told her teacher that she wanted to be a hero. Just like her father and Ironhide.

* While [[http://zarla.deviantart.com/art/UNDERTALE-SPOILERS-Is-this-bravery-567163610 this comic]] about Papyrus telling Sans he intends to try to stop a Genocide protagonist is mainly just sad, [[spoiler:Sans's overwhelming relief that his brother is alive is still touching. As is Frisk curled up in Papyrus's arms, [[TheAtoner apologizing over and over]]. Not to mention the simple fact that Papyrus ''succeeds'' in reforming Frisk through his kindness. It's every bit as touching as it is when you abort a Genocide run at Papyrus in the game, if not more so.]]
** Honestly, when she's not busy being [[{{TearJerker}} utterly heartbreaking]], Zarla's gallery is practically an endless flood of touching Undertale content, many of them centered around the skeleton brothers. [[http://zarla.deviantart.com/art/I-don-t-come-off-as-needy-do-I-582068575 Here's]] [[http://zarla.deviantart.com/art/Don-t-ask-for-much-really-579705033 a]] [[http://zarla.deviantart.com/art/Only-one-way-to-react-577729750 few]] [[http://zarla.deviantart.com/art/My-brother-isn-t-dangerous-571735849 just]] [[http://zarla.deviantart.com/art/Skeleton-actions-569827338 to]] get you started.
** Three words: Undertale. ''[[http://zarla.deviantart.com/art/SPOILERS-In-this-world-it-s-stack-or-be-stacked-586604972 Tsum Tsums]]''.
* [[http://bpavlica.deviantart.com/gallery/56903796/ASK-BLOG This Undertale themed ask blog]] was made with the express effort in averting TrueArtIsAngsty as much as possible, providing many a funny and/or adorable moment while making it an outright ''rule'' not to answer any questions that could potentially lead to anything sad. [[http://bpavlica.deviantart.com/art/you-are-my-sunshine-583828452 This comic]] and its description pretty much sums it up.

** [[http://bpavlica.deviantart.com/art/Undertale-ask-blog-bad-days-577280104 What Undyne, Sans and Papyrus do when they have bad days.]] Who doesn't want a "Pap" talk?
** [[http://bpavlica.deviantart.com/art/Undertale-ask-blog-more-stars-611551981?q=gallery%3AbPAVLICA%2F56903796&qo=7 The coolest star in the Underground...]]
* "[[http://tarajenkins.deviantart.com/art/Santa-Baby-575881003 Family Tradition]]". Also a great SugarWiki/CrowningMomentOfFunny.

* [[http://hamstermastersamster.deviantart.com/art/Shooting-Star-586091866 "never change, bro."]]
* [[http://kuzukago.deviantart.com/art/Undertale-589122718 This comic]] manages to tell an absolutely precious story [[SilenceIsGolden without a single word]].

* Inspired by the fandom's many [=AUs=] and a blog in which different AU versions of different characters meet and interact, one artist came up with a particularly powerful hypothetical scenario: [[http://theperfecta.deviantart.com/art/Genocide-Skeletons-582445822 Genocide Route Sans meeting Genocide! Papyrus]]. The original image is pretty much pure {{Tearjerker}}, but the [[http://inistrife.deviantart.com/art/Sans-Papyrus-587723764 follow-up image]] and [[http://archiveofourown.org/works/5875228 eventual fanfic]] written by popular demand ''will'' make you want to hug the nearest family member you can find.
* Mettaton [[http://pombity.deviantart.com/art/Dapper-Tea-Party-573865576 taking some time off]] to hang out with [[spoiler:his cousin.]]

* A [=YouTuber=] called [[https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCbl-w_QPNXkIuPxMqkAdTJw Madam Sharky]] did a few videos on the fangame [[http://gamejolt.com/games/undertale-determination/140613 Determination]]. The fangame's creators [[ApprovalOfGod took notice]] and asked her to preview the next update, which included a new secret boss. [[spoiler: The boss was ''Madam Sharky herself''. At the end, Madam Sharky breaks down in tears of joy on camera.]]

* [[http://baka2niisan.deviantart.com/art/Undertale-4koma-1-570625629 Throw a rock at Papyrus and call him a freak?]] Get ready for Sans, Undyne, ''and'' Frisk to gang up on you!

* [[http://creativegreenbeans.tumblr.com/post/132919830316/head-canon-where-frisk-dies-at-the-end-of-the Some]] [[http://thejonwalter.tumblr.com/post/145197224139/wow-i-had-a-lot-of-fun-with-this-one-sorry-for fans]] counter the idea of the monsters outliving Frisk by a long shot by subscribing to the idea of them turning into a monster skeleton upon death, allowing them to keep living with their monster friends. Doubly adorable if you spoke to Gerson and heard from him how Asgore and Toriel would inevitably outlive you if they took you in as an adoptive child--not anymore!
* [[http://queezlejones.tumblr.com/post/133731241808/i-decided-to-put-this-entire-comic-under-a If Chara gave a speech at the end of a True Pacifist Route]].
* One "Ask Mettaton" blog received several questions about how to love yourself and be confident like Mettaton. Those people not only got self-care tips from Mettaton, [[http://ask--mettaton-ex.tumblr.com/post/132071529862 but from nearly the entire cast!]] [[PetTheDog Even Flowey chimes in.]] [[https://youtu.be/GBblqFugFu8?list=PLTt5xdtdmbh44dM_HuQzS48HE_fp85JP4 It's dubbed, too.]]

* [[http://soupery.tumblr.com/post/134657150954/warning-really-long-post-full-of-undertlae This comic]] telling the story of the Pacifist Route through the song "The Call" by Creator/ReginaSpektor.
* Sans and Papyrus' [[http://assortedjellies.deviantart.com/art/growth-chart-627729583 growth chart]]. Now in [[http://myrobotlandlord.tumblr.com/post/148837114911/x-start-small-grow-tall-or-stay-small-thats gif]] form, too!

* [[http://archiveofourown.org/works/5630875 Reconciliation]], a fanfic that has [[spoiler:Frisk witnessing Toriel and Asgore...well, [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin reconciling]].]] It first starts with [[spoiler:Toriel acting icy towards Asgore, who [[RageBreakingPoint suddenly snaps]]. He calms down a bit, but also delivers a borderline TheReasonYouSuckSpeech to both himself, and Toriel.]] The fanfic ends with [[spoiler:Toriel offering Asgore to stay at a guest room.]] While it can be a TearJerker to some, it's ultimately very sweet.
* [[http://absolutedream.deviantart.com/art/Papyrus-s-New-Fan-Part-1-of-3-581267330 This]] comic involving Papyrus and his new fan, the Monster Kid.

* ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4501730/1/Directive_You Directive: You]]'', a ''WesternAnimation/WallE'' fanfic. WALL-E's revival at the film's close seems to be imperfect, as he can remember some aspects of his term on the Axiom but not others. EVE - when she isn't helping the humans recolonize the Earth - takes it upon herself to restore his memory using her own databanks and revisiting various places on Earth, such as a dilapidated building (which is a SugarWiki/{{Heartwarming Moment|s}} in itself). She eventually discovers that his directive - which is normally the same as his designation, "Waste Allocation Load Lifter Earth Class - has changed to ''her'' designation out of sheer love, and gladly reciprocates with a hug. * sniff* ...[[TearJerker HAPPY BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH...]]

* ''VideoGame/TheWorldEndsWithYou'' story, ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6225884/1/Know_You_Better Know You Better]]'' has Shiki telling her best friend, Eri, of the Reaper's Game. Luckily for her, she ''believes'' her.

%%* [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3909697/1/ This]] ''Film/NationalTreasure'' fic. Just all of it.
* In ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4451330/1/Resolve Resolve, the Sequel to Timidity]]'' by Davner, we have this: When Keiichi, after hilarity had ensued, and he had been smacked in the head by Anteros, who obviously did something to him, we get the following scene:

%%* ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3273860/1/End_of_Summer_Novel The Whisper of the Heart]]'' series by Saddletank. Just. Read it.

* The ''Film/IronMan'' movieverse fanfic ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6639148/1/20_Questions 20 Questions]]''. As the [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin title]] suggests, Tony convinces Pepper to play 20 questions with him (although he only asks fifteen). His questions are mostly silly and humorous, until he gets to the final one. What does he ask?

* You'd never expect [[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4005976/1/Land_Before_Time_Voyage_through_time a story about Soviet soldiers in the]] [[WesternAnimation/TheLandBeforeTime Great Valley]] to be heartwarming, but it pulls it off with the Soviets' reactions to meeting the cast of ''Land Before Time''.
* In chapter 2 of ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7292991/1/Xanatos Xanatos]]'', Linda helps Near pack his things before leaving Wammy's House, and then hugs him and tells him she'll miss him. Doubles up as a bit of a TearJerker.

* From ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5882970/1/Everybody-Comes-To-Harry-s Everybody Comes to Harry's]]''. Another reason why the Flash is the greatest hero [[WesternAnimation/JusticeLeague out there]].
--> '''Flash''': James, I ''know'' you... You've been a supervillain -
--> '''Trickster''': [[InsistentTerminology A Rogue]].
--> '''Flash''': Sorry - a Rogue - for a long time, and if there's something I know about you for sure -
--> '''Trickster''': I really like blue and yellow stripes?
--> '''Flash''': – It's that you do not ''kill''. You [[PokeThePoodle don't hurt innocent people]]. You're a good g – well, okay, maybe not a 'good guy', but you're a [[FriendlyEnemy not a bad man]]. I'd rather have you here than [[DiabolicalMastermind any]] [[AIIsACrapshoot wacky]] [[GodOfEvil villain]] I come up against with the League. Any day.
* ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/8803490/1/Extended-Stay Extended Stay]]'' has a few moments like this. However, the most heartfelt moment has to be this:

* [[Franchise/TouhouProject Kokoro]] in the doujin ''[[http://danbooru.donmai.us/pools/7063 Kokoro's Smile Is Priceless]]'', after Rinnosuke gives her mask back:

* When Tsunade tracks down Kagura in ''[[http://ficwad.com/story/239678 Eroninja: Little Black Book]]'', the latter's sole request is that Tsunade waits to execute her until she gives birth so she can hold her baby in her arms before she dies. Tsunade asks how Kagura came to be Kanji's slave, to which Kagura explains she gave herself up to keep her family safe.

* ''[[http://archiveofourown.org/works/476291/chapters/23899233 Life In Reverse]]'' has [[AlwaysSecondBest Loki]] resigned to see the Avengers abandon him for [[TheAce Thor]], after a lifetime spent in his brother's shadow. The Avengers' reaction are quite different of what he thought it would be: Black Widow chews him out for calling Thor - whom Loki asserted would try to hurt him - over realizing he ''may'' be more needed by the team, Bruce hulk out when he sees how much Loki is upset and frightened by his brother's arrival, Steve refuses to leave Loki alone with Thor and Tony outright threatens the thunder god for being hostile towards his magic buddy. Loki's confusion and growing realisation that the Avengers are trying to protect ''him'' is downright adorable.

* This moment between Rahne and Doug in [[http://lubakmetyk.infinology.net/others/bottroff/gowest07.htm Chapter 7]] of ''Go West''.

* ''[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/11307210 Dex-Starr Finds a New Home]]'' has Tim helping the feline Red Lantern to finally gain closure for his late owner's murder. Since he's no longer driven by revenge, Dex relinquishes his PowerRing and decides to stay with Tim, reverting to the loving pet he once had been.

** When the plot starts, Maxim is not in a good place: [[ForWantOfANail because Agatha was never found]], the Castle fell, the Jägermonsters had to split apart and the poor purple guy was frozen a long time before being captured by a MadScientist as a test subject. Then he's rescued by Steve seeking for Tony - an unknowing Jäeger and Agatha's great-grandson. Not only Maxim has not lost everything, he still managed to fulfill his mission: finding the Heterodyne heir.

* Moments from ''Fanfic/FoxRain'':
** After [[PointOfDivergence a chance encounter leads to her receiving the Fox Miraculous right after her original Akumatization]], Lila does her genuine best to be a genuine hero. [[HeroWithAnFInGood She's not exactly the hero type]] and [[FishOutOfWater has some strange expectations due to her previous life experience]] (she genuinely thinks that seeing the train for Rome, and thus a glimpse of what she considers the best place in the world, would help Marinette with her creative block), but at least she's trying. And even then, she can obtain some results:
*** After the Miraculous Book was stolen, it's her who gets Adrien back to school by claiming that, as the superheroine Vorpika (that she's lying about having been in Paris for a while), she hypnotized him into doing that, and also gives Gabriel a scare to make sure he won't try and isolate Adrien again.
*** One of Lila's suggestions for Marinette's creative block, the one that worked, was for her to visit the nearest fabric store to get inspiration. In part she suggested it because she knew they'd find a flier for a contest from ''Gabriel''... And in part because she has a composer uncle who'd visit a music instrument shop for inspiration every time he has a creative block.
** After a somewhat rocky start, Marinette's decision and perseverance in befriending Lila and keeping her good, even showing her a past diary (that she normally keeps hidden and surrounded by traps) when it looked like Lila would think they were using her.
** Chloe is her AlphaBitch self... But still has it in herself to try and foil an (ineffective) attempt from an unknown bully to get Lila Akumatized.
** In a strange and somewhat dark way, Gabriel's insistence in getting [[OriginalGeneration Zoe Chevalot]] Akumatized so often everyone but Alya has lost count: [[PapaWolf she's Adrien's stalker, and as she's the daughter of the chief of the police and cannot just file a restraining order he's trying to get her committed]].

* ''[[https://politely-writings.tumblr.com/post/186294093322/papa-bear?is_related_post=1 Papa Bear]]'' sees Gabriel act as a PapaWolf not just to Adrien, but to Marinette as well. As soon as Adrien explains to him what Lila has been doing to both of them, he makes sure she is ruined. It also ends with Gabriel taking them both out to lunch.
