Inspector Spacetime/Heartwarming
- When, at the climax of Capt. James' character arc, he overcomes his paralyzing self-doubt to be with his beloved Gwaednerth Smith.
- The story of their ensuing domestic bliss is chronicled in the spin-off, Peacemist: Nicer Post.
- In a related piece, the wonderful story of how they single handedly disposed of death, meaning that people could live happy immortal lives, as chronicled in Peacemist: Destruction of Death.
- Don't forget the exchange between James and the (Tenth) Inspector in "Intersection of the Parallels", which serves as a Call Back to Lily's ascendance (see below):
- The story of their ensuing domestic bliss is chronicled in the spin-off, Peacemist: Nicer Post.
Inspector: Why did you save me? |
- Aiden's response to finally finding out that Angie had a crush on him their entire childhood was heartmeltingly sweet.
- In The Horrendous Space Kablooie: After having had his beloved bowler hat destroyed in The Promethium Closes, Brooke Rhapsody uses a matter-alteration setting on her gun to create a new one in midair. The look of thanks on the Inspector's face when Angie catches it and plops it on his head is heartmelting.
- After Constable Reginald Wigglesworth compromises his ethics and humanity to gang press a team of Timelocked Snarling Lions, a dying Rostraans seeking glory and former Associate and Reginald ex turned soulless Time Deviant Camilla Sea into rescuing the Inspector from the Paradox Torment. The following conversation was to this troper borderline Tear Jerker..
Inspector Spacetime: Why did you do it Reginald? You sacrificed your name, what you stood for. Even what's left of your poor broken heart to save me. |
- Along with being quite a Tear Jerker, Lily's ultimate choice to leave this physical universe and embrace her destiny as the Good Lamb by joining the Pantheon of Immortals counts as a Heartwarming Moment just for the sheer selflessness of the act. Her goodbye to the Inspector is adorable, too.
Lily Taylor: You are my shepherd, Inspector, and I am yours. Watch over our flock for me. |
