Examples of [[{{TOPLEVELPAGE}}]]s in [[{{SUBPAGENAME}}]] works include:

* [[JesuOtaku]] and her subtitles. Until they have a falling out about their use in the [[Now and Then, Here and There]] review.
* There are a lot of examples in ''[[Lonelygirl15]]'', most notably the purple monkey puppet, P. Monkey.
* Subverted in the ''[[Whateley Universe]]'', where Generator (Jade Sinclair) has a toy rabbit, a stuffed toy lion, and what looks like a Hello Kitty compact. But Jade's superpower is the ability to cast a psychokinetic copy of herself into objects, so they really are temporarily alive, and intelligent, and often ''very'' dangerous.
* Perfect Jones, the sanest [[Science-Related Memetic Disorder|double Darkwell]] in ''[[Star Harbor Nights]]'', confides in her stuffed bunny Mr. Buttons, occasionally taking him on patrol. He also doubles as her [[Berserk Button]].
* ''[[Survival of the Fittest]]'' has this with Hannah Rose and her "magic hat". Alice Jones and her stuffed rabbit (complete with a [[Shout-Out]] to ''[[Paranoia Agent]]'') could have been counted as a borderline example, too, until she discarded it in favour of {{spoiler|Guy Rapide's [[Alas, Poor Yorick|head]]}}.
** Back in v1, we also had [[Complete Monster|Cody Jenson]] and Loretta, a ''motorcycle''.
* In Overthegun's [[Let's Play]] of ''[[Half Life]] 2'', he befriends a circular blade named "Sharpy" during the Ravenholm section. He carries it around with the gravity gun for at ''least'' half an hour, eschewing (the faster, easier) explosive barrels littered around, in favour of bisecting every zombie individually. He even has a brief panic attack when he thinks he's lost Sharpy.
{{quote|Sharpy's just an all-round really cool fella. You can either shoot him, like '''that'''... or stuff'll jump at you, and he'll absorb a hit for ya. How great of a guy is he, really? These fuckin' washing machines ''wish'' I'd carry ''them'' around for three loads in a row.}}
* In ''[[Baman Piderman]]'', Baman and Piderman's friends Pumpkin and Tuba... except they appear to actually be alive and at least as intelligent and Baman and Piderman themselves.
* Ramirez the Gnome in [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7lSaRbIJHWw Episode 6] of [[Profound Moments in Left 4 Dead 2]].
* Actor and blogger [[Wil Wheaton]] frequently posts conversations with iTunes on his Twitter feed
* Several inanimate objects from ''[[Homestar Runner]]'' are treated as characters, like The Stick. Some of them, like Strong Bad's computers, seem to actually have minds of their own!
** Paper actually "talks" to Strong Bad. Once, it admitted that it liked hushpuppies.
** This was also parodied in the Strong Bad Email "Original", in which Strong Bad tells the tale of "Original Bubs", who supposedly left the series on unfriendly terms and whose absence was excused through a series of [[Fake Shemp|increasingly ridiculous tricks]] and [[The Other Darrin|guest stars]], the most popular of which was "Onion Bubs" (just an onion with Bubs' face drawn on it).
** Hell, even the sound made by Strong Bad's chair when he gets up has been turned into a character. Two characters, actually (The Geddup Noise and "his cousin, Chairscoot").
** A list can be found [http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php/Category:Pseudocharacters here.]
* Hubert Cumberdale from ''[[Salad Fingers]]''. In fact, it's used an awful lot to emphasize just how messed up Salad Fingers really is.
* Subverted in ''[[Red vs. Blue]]'' since, though characters interact with Andy the Bomb, who is an actual bomb, he is given a voice (and quite a nasty personality).
* ''[[Happy Tree Friends]]'': In "Sucker for Love", Nutty's obsession with a heart-shaped box of chocolates on display in a candy store window causes him to imagine himself marrying the box, making it breakfast, riding with it in an ambulance as it breaks water during its pregnancy (implied by the bulge in its center), and having three small boxes of chocolates as his children. Then he finds the box cheated on him, discovering the affair after seeing Lumpy (who's now a milkman) leaving their house with chocolate smeared on his lips. A quick scene shifts to Nutty in jail, where it's implied he killed Lumpy out of jealousy. When he walks in the visiting area, he meets the box of chocolates (now sporting a scarf and pair of glasses) with a dent on its side (which he may have caused after beating it in his rage from its affair with Lumpy), and expresses to it his regret for treating it. After his release from prison, they both live happily together until their old age, when the elderly box of chocolates dies by falling over and spilling its contents. Before returning to reality, the elderly Nutty stands in the rain, mourning over the box of chocolates' grave.
* One [[Charlie the Unicorn|Film Cow]] short features [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MRmey2WvWnw John McCain and his Vegetable Friends.] Also has nice doses of [[Lyrical Dissonance]], [[Nightmare Fuel]] and [[Let's Meet the Meat]] if the title didn't seem creepy enough.
* Ol' Lynchy in ''[[Comic Fury Werewolf]]'' is this. The villagers are very affectionate of it, and there were riots when it was replaced with a typical lynching platform in Game 11. It was brought back as of Game 12
* A strange justification in the second episode of "[[Perverts On The Internet]]:" After raiding large amounts of Mike Gibbons' booze, Kunt winds up believing that a Girl's World doll is possessed by the spirit of his dead ex-girlfriend.
