* "[[https://archiveofourown.org/works/46729456/ The Turn]]", a crossover between ''Literature/{{Animorphs}}'' and ''[[WesternAnimation/MightyDucksTheAnimatedSeries The Mighty Ducks]]'' features Tanya musing that Wildwing would probably be this if he and the other Ducks hadn't been captured by the Yeerks early on. When the Animorphs end up on an Andalite spaceship and are initially dismissed by the ship's tactical officer, Tanya observes that if Wildwing was free and had the chance to meet the Animorphs he would have at least listened to Jake as he would recognise that Jake is the one with more knowledge of the Yeerk threat (Tanya privately muses that Wildwing wouldn't like the idea of children having to take point in a war, but she regards that as a separate issue).

*“[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/13291028/1/Time-s-Razor Time’s Razor]]” soon establishes Laura Roslin and William Adama (''Series/BattlestarGalactica2003'') as this in their dealings with the dimensionally displaced USS ''Defiant'' (''Series/StarTrekDeepSpaceNine''). When Admiral Cain tries to attack the ''Defiant'' and order the crew to submit for interrogation even though they’ve done nothing but help the Colonials against the Cylons, Captain Sisko has Cain transported off her ship and sent to sickbay for psychiatric evaluation. Once he has explained his actions to Roslin and Adama, both not only agree with Sisko’s reasons, but Roslin subsequently promotes Adama to Admiral so that he has the authority to better coordinate their efforts on behalf of the Colonial fleet.

* In ''Fanfic/TurningRedSecretsOfThePanda'', Howard Mitchell is somewhat this. While still working for Jason as his second-in-command, he is a lot more honest and well-meaning than his boss, and only tries to kill people (including members of the Lee family) if he has no other option.

*''Fanfic/TarkinsFist'': President Jonathan Harris starts as this, listening to his staff and military advisors and relying on their advice to make decisions. He rarely dithers and looks for practical solutions to the problems he is presented with.

* ''Fanfic/CyclesUponCycles'': [[Franchise/MassEffect Primarch Fedorian]] is this when [[VideoGame/StarCraft Kerrigan]] announces her plans to [[spoiler:absorb the Krogan into the Zerg and remove the genophage]]. While Matriarch Benezia is condescending about the whole thing and Dalatrass Lintron spends the whole meeting panicking, Fedorian is upset but realizes that the Koprulu Alliance has always kept their word, so they can be trusted here.

* In the ''WesternAnimation/JackieChanAdventures'' and ''WesternAnimation/{{WITCH}}'' crossover fanfic ''Fanfic/{{Kage}}'' (part of ''Fanfic/ProjectDarkJade'', like ''Fanfic/QueenOfAllOni''), Himerish is willing to give Jade the benefit of the doubt rather than assume the prophecy he saw involving her was inevitable.
** This continues into the [[RecursiveFanfiction fan sequel]] ''Fanfic/ShadowsOverMeridian''. While angry and disappointed when he learns exactly how Elyon and the Guardians treated Jade when she first arrived on Meridian, he doesn't chew them out on it like Luba. He also still believes that the prophecy can be averted, and is open to diplomatic means of dealing with Jade.

* ''Fanfic/ThisBites'':
** Smoker proves to be this by listening to Cross while he speaks of the corruption in the Marine Corps, and actually gives him a weapon to help him prove that "decent pirates" also exist. This is the germ that leads to the creation of the [[BenevolentConspiracy New World Masons]].
** Iceburg quotes the trope by name as part of why he worked with the World Government.
* In ''[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/11568253/6/Supernova Supernova]]'', one of the Marine officers is notably reluctant to assign bounties to the Straw Hat crew given that so far they'd only gone after other pirates or horribly corrupt marines.
