* Upon [[CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming their reunion]] in the finale of ''AvatarTheLastAirbender'', Zuko [[http://iroh.org/screencaps/ep59/ep59-611.png cries into Iroh's shoulder.]]

** The same thing happens in "Day of the Moon," when Amy sobs into the Eleventh Doctor's chest just after he's been shot dead. [[OrIsIt Or has he?]]

In both forms, this trope is likely to double as a TearJerker and CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming for the audience, since it often serves double duty as a [[SadnessTropes Sadness Trope]] and a [[LoveTropes Love Trope]]. This trope can also be seen as a merger of CryCute and {{Glomp}}.

If, on the other hand, the chest belongs to a woman, the relationship will be closer to that of a mother and child, and the woman's more motherly attributes will be emphasized. This case is far less likely to be between love interests, and the two characters are a bit more likely to be same-sex.

If a woman's more "motherly attributes" wind up in a character's face by accident, it's MarshmallowHell. This trope can be seen as a merger of CryCute and {{Glomp}}.

* ''DoctorWho''. When the Doctor is apparently killed in "The Pyramids of Mars" Sarah Jane Smith sobs into his chest, causing the NotQuiteDead Doctor to wake up and complain that she's shrinking his shirt.

* Orihime confesses her insecurities to Rangiku and then breaks down in tears. Rangiku then [[YouAreBetterThanYouThinkYouAre comforts her with some words of encouragement]], and subsequently embraces her, leading to this. Simultaneously a CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming and moment of LesYay, as Rangiku is naked. (Though this aspect is still at least somewhat tasteful, as it represents Rangiku's emotional honesty and pure willingness to protect Orihime.)

There are two main varieties. If the character whose shirt is being used as a handkerchief is male, the character crying will frequently be female, and the reason this situation is occurring is due to a height differential, since men are on average taller than women. The point will be to accentuate the guy's stronger, more protective attributes. Frequently, the two are a couple, and in this case, it will serve as a sort of CryCute.

* In CodeGeass, Lelouch cries into CC's chest after [[spoiler: shooting his half-sister Euphemia.]]

* In {{Remember11}}, Yukidoh wakes up back at SPHIA being held in Utsumi's chest. She did that in order to calm [[FreakyFridaySwitch "him"]] down after "he" blew a gasket and started destroying the kitchen/family room area.

* Apparently, in ''DragonAge Origins'', Zevran really wants to cry into Wynne's bosom. He brings this up on several opportunities. Wynne assures him that he's capable of crying well away from her bosom. It's sort of toying with the motherly idea; Wynne is a very grandmotherly figure in general, but Zevran is being shamelessly sexual when he suggests it.
