* [[Older Than Feudalism]]: Achilles and Patroclus from ''[[The Iliad]]'' were more like [[Blood Knight|Blood Knight Gay]] and a [[Battle Couple]] to boot. The entire reason the two are made cousins in the 2003 movie ''[[Troy]]'' was because it was the only way the producers could think of [[Hide Your Gays| to avoid any LGBT connotations.]] Achilles's desire to enter battle with Hector is ignited when Hector accidentally kills Patroclus (thinking him to be Achilles). Note that the ancient Greek culture didn't divide people into heterosexual and homosexual but instead into active/dominant and receiving/submissive. One can assume that Achilles was the active/dominant in the relationship, although the general Trope still applies to Patroclus.
* In ''[[Harry Potter/Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (novel)|Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows]]'', the final book of the ''[[Harry Potter (novel)|Harry Potter]]'' series, we finally get Dumbledore's backstory, detailing how his romance with Grindelwald made him the Badass Mentor he has been throughout the series. Although it's incredibly subtle. Most people (besides [[Yaoi Fangirl|the obvious]]) never even thought about it until we got a [[Word of Gay]].
* In ''[http://www.adlibris.com/se/product.aspx?isbn=9163330075 Prinsessan Kristalla]'', the titular Princess Crystallia and her girlfriend have several badass moments, like when they save the dragon from all the [[Knight Templar]] "[[Windmill Crusader|heroes]]".
* In the final novel of the ''[[Slave World]]'' series, two female protagonists have to go on a daring rescue mission behind enemy lines - infiltrating the timeline they once belonged to, {{spoiler|as England is on the edge of getting psychopaths as their new rulers and the cold war between the timelines threatens to erupt into a full scale war between the worlds.}} The queen trust these women with this mission not only because of their well known intelligence and skill, but also because of the one thing that make her certain that they will never betray England at this crucial point in history: Their [[Property of Love|undying devotion]] to Lady Isobel and Lady Abigail respectively.
Line 134:
* Princess Bubblegum and her girlfriend Marceline from ''[[Adventure Time]]''; their feelings towards each other had been hinted for a long time before being confirmed in the episode "Come Along With Me".
* Luz and Amity in ''[[The Owl House]]'', both of them overlapping with [[Little Miss Badass]].
* Velma DinleyDinkley of ''[[Scooby-Doo]]'' fame; this was rumored to be the case for a long time, eventually confirmed in ''[[Trick or Treat, Scooby-Doo]]''.
* Variation, Quagmire's father Dan - later Ida - on ''[[Family Guy]]'' is a Badass ''Trans''. Unfortunately, that's pretty much the only facet of her personality, making her sort of one-dimensional as a character.
