[[Death Is Dramatic]], depressing, and emotional enough, but sometimes, just for the extra emotional kick-in-the-gut [[Tear Jerker]], the author will make a character die in the arms of a futile onlooker. As the onlooker (usually one of the dying character's [[True Companions]]) holds them dearly, the dying may [[Go Out with a Smile|flash them a smile]] or [[Famous Last Words|make a final dramatic statement]] before finally [[Big Sleep|closing their eyes]] and succumbing to their fate.

* Pictured above: Meer Campbell in ''[[Gundam Seed Destiny]]'' dies in the hands of Lacus Clyne after [[Taking the Bullet]] for her. For an extra kick, Meer is Lacus' [[Body Double]] and her once biggest [[Fan Girl]], now ridden by a volatile mix of jealousy, admiration, and the [["Well Done, Son" Guy|wish to be noticed by her]].
** Also, Stellar Louissier dies in Shinn Asuka's arms.
