* The fandom seems to have a thing for Aziraphale being dragged into Hell for some torture scenes with the option of making Aziraphale Fall. This got parodied in ''FanFic/ManchesterLost'', where [[FanDisservice Poor Aziraphale got it so bad]] [[GoryDiscretionShot we only got to see what was going through his head]] [[ColdBloodedTorture as Lucifer tore off his wings]], which was an incredibly fluffy flashback.

* a good chunk of WebAnimation/WolfSongTheMovie has Alador become this, as he is captured and physically tortured by the Death Alpha and his goons (well, mainly Cobalt), and as such his sister Kara, along with half a dozen other pack members go to the rescue. Partway through, Kara herself becomes momentarily captured, but the secondary characters are able to come to her aid. She then is able to locate and meet back up with her badly injured brother [[spoiler: but by that time it's too late.]]
