* In MahouSenseiNegima, [[CuteShotaroBoy Negi]] does this a lot, falling asleep on his students' laps on numerous occasions. The romantic overtones are usually subverted. Such as when he falls asleep on Konoka's lap (pictured above), leading the cheerleaders (and [[ShotaCon Ayaka]], who promptly freaks out) to believe that they're secretly dating, when in fact he's just exhausted. Naturally, Ayaka is overjoyed when Negi conks out on her lap later on, again due to fatigue.

* OrderOfTheStick had Roy's mom offer to let him do this while she reads him his favorite bedtime story from when he was a kid after he meets her in Celestia. Due to his mother looking like an extremely hot chick younger then him at the time, he doesn't take up the offer.

* The [[http://touhou.wikia.com/wiki/File:Th04cover.jpg cover]] of ''[[{{Touhou}} Touhou Project: Lotus Land Story]]'' involves Marisa sleeping in Reimu's lap this way.

* The [[{{Persona4}} Persona 4]] Protagonist can force one of his party members to lay their head on his lap during the King's Game.

* This is part of Minori's good end in ''{{Brass Restoration}}''. Ryo breaks down crying and then falls asleep with his head in her lap. Because he cried himself to sleep, he doesn't realize what happened until Tsubomi tells him, leading Kouri to ask what a lap pillow is. He says it's a new type of pillow.
* In the second game of {{BlazBlue}}, [[spoiler:Noel and Ragna have a moment like this at the end of the game after Ragna sacrifices his left arm to save her life.]]

->"In his lap lay Frodo’s head, drowned deep in sleep; upon his white forehead lay one of Sam’s brown hands, and the other lay softly upon his master’s breast. Peace was in both their faces."
