Ratchet & Clank/Heartwarming

"Clank: *begins to walk away sadly* Ratchet: Hey! Tin can! Clank: *looks back, surprised* Ratchet: Where do you think you're going? We... still need to fix that arm."
 * The ending of the first game.

"Clank: This is the Ratchet I always knew was there."
 * Not long before that, we're also treated to this:

"Clank: This is your chance to be the hero you always wanted to be..."
 * Prior to the final boss in Up Your Arsenal. the pair confront Captain Quark for ditching the team. While Ratchet walks away disgusted, Clank attempts sympathetically to convince Quark to rejoin them.

"Ratchet: Looks like Otto overlooked one thing; I'm not half as good without you. Clank: True."
 * The Future trilogy was full of this, mostly between our eponymous heroes. For example:
 * The post-Tachyon segment on Reepor, when
 * This isn't to say that it never happened at all-- see to witness it in all of its adorable glory.
 * For that matter, the final boss cutscene on is a good example, too,
 * The ending gives us a Book End to match the first cutscene in Polaris. The first was from Clank's point of view and the second from Ratchet's. Both include but that isn't necessarily where this trope comes in. The latter "end" occurs after   --and the answer to "Where are we"?
 * A Crack in Time gives us "Do you think I'd leave my best pal out here alone?" which is definitely smile-worthy the first time through, and borders on being a Tear Jerker when it's included in a Meaningful Echo later on.
 * What may be the best example of this in the trilogy is the  Say it with me, now: awwww!
 * And then, of course, there is the cutscene "The Plumber's Advice", which has already been listed on the Ho Yay page, but qualifies here, as well.
 * On an unrelated note, the last line/monologue of A Crack in Time, helpfully provided by our resident Cool Old Guy, which included an oddly (and awesomely) positive Ironic Echo:
 * They also get a moment in Playstation Move Heroes-- short, sweet and easily missed if you aren't familiar with the series, but the most likely scene to earn a smile from the player: "Never doubted you for a second, pal!"
 * Near the very beginning of Tools of Destruction, (directly after "Your name is Percival?") Tachyon starts badmouthing Ratchet. Though he doesn't say anything, Clank walks right up as if to defend him, which immediately draws Tachyon's attention away from Ratchet. This probably qualifies on its own, but an exchange near the end of A Crack in Time mirrors it, this time with Nefarious insulting Clank. Needless to say, Ratchet steps right in and defends him in turn. Does that make the first even more Heartwarming in Hindsight?
 * In All 4 One
 * This exchange from Size Matters is probably one of the sweeter sequences in the game:
