* ''Manga/MariaNoDanzai'': [[SchoolNurse Maria]] deliberately invokes CoolTeacher and FriendToAllChildren so that [[BeneathSuspicion no one will suspect her]] when she [[BullyHunter murders Okaya's gang]]. And it works: by the time she finally gets started, practically every student in the school ''adores'' her.



** In ''Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix'', he learns to what extent he can share things with him and uses that knowledge to give Harry what appears to be a prophetic dream, showing Voldemort holding Sirius Black prisoner in the Department of Mystery. As he expected, Harry rushes to the Ministry immediately. And all so that Harry would finally pick up the Prophecy concerning the two of them, and Voldemort could learn its full contents.
** ''Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince'' has Harry actually mention this as his [[ItsNotYouItsMyEnemies reason for breaking up]] with Ginny. He mentions that Voldemort already took her as a hostage in ''the Chamber of Secrets'' to get Harry to save her, and that was back when she was simply his best friend's sister. He wants to [[ItsNotYouItsMyEnemies keep her safe by cutting off a romantic bond that would make her a greater target than before]].
** Finally, ''Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows'' has Lucius Malfoy ask Voldemort to call off the battle at Hogwarts. Voldemort denies it, knowing exactly how much it would torture Harry to know that people are dying because of him, and how he ''will'' [[HeroicSacrifice give himself up to Voldemort]] before the battle is over. And he's right, as Harry heads off to face Voldemort in the Forbidden Forest.
