'''Intertwined Fingers''' is a particular way of [[Holding Hands]] that indicates a more than close relationship between two people. This is commonly done by lovers, or whenever a creator wants to [[Ship Tease|indicate a pair are more than friends]] without going out and saying it.

{{examples}}
 
== Anime and Manga ==
* Rose and Ryuuji in [[Dragon Crisis]] do this fairly often, since it's used to kick off their [[Battle Couple|Engage]] abilities.
* Used as [[Ship Tease]] in ''[[SoraSo noRa WotoNo Wo To]]'' between Filicia and Rio shortly before Filicia sacrifices herself... in an [[What Do You Mean It's Not Awesome?|alcohol-fueled watergun war]].
* Aimi and Kaoruko of ''[[Akahori Gedou Hour Rabuge]]'' do this as part of their [[In the Name of the Moon]]-speech.
* Najimi and Yell do this in episode 7 of ''[[Akikan]]''. This may be part of the summoning process which also includes kissing.
Line 20 ⟶ 19:
* Kanade and Yukino from ''[[Candy Boy]]'' do this a lot. Yes, they are sisters—but it is hinted that [[Twincest|there's more to it]].
* In the last episode of ''[[Chrono Crusade]]'', Chrono and Rosette intertwine their fingers right before they {{spoiler|[[Together in Death|breathe their last]]}}. [[Tear Jerker|*sob*]]
* Ryou and Nagisa in ''[[Clannad (visual novel)|Clannad]]'' do this when the latter "confesses" to the former, much to [[Yuri Fanboy|Sunohara]]'s excitement.
* Occurs between {{spoiler|C.C. and Lelouch}} near the end of ''[[Code Geass|Code Geass R2]]'' while they sit back-to-back. Notable due to the two characters' {{spoiler|mutual asexual behavior and/or untrusting natures}} toward each other and everyone throughout the series, but completely understandable when you consider all the crap they've been through together at this point.
* ''[[Full Metal Panic!|Full Metal Panic: The Second Raid]]''. Xia Yu Fang and Xia Yu Lan do this after one of them gets a [[Pistol-Whipping]] from [[Bad Boss]] Gates. It hints at their [[Twincest]] relationship, as if the earlier [[Les Yay]] [[Shower Scene]] wasn't evidence enough.
Line 39 ⟶ 38:
* The first three seasons of ''[[Pretty Cure]]''. That is all.
* {{spoiler|Ayato and Haruka}} of ''[[RahXephon]]'' are a heterosexual example, which occurs once during the series and twice in the movie.
* In the manga version of ''[[RODR.O.D the TV]]'', Anita and Hisami do this ever so often, clearly showing [[Romantic Two-Girl Friendship|the intensity of their friendship]].
* In ''[[Saki (manga)|Saki]]'', Saki and Nodoka hold hands like this quite a bit.
* [[Sailor Moon|Sailor Neptune and Sailor Uranus]] do this quite a few times throughout the series.
Line 121 ⟶ 120:
 
== Visual Novels ==
* The [[Girls Love]] series of [[Visual Novel]]s, ''[[SonoA HanabiraKiss nifor Kuchizukethe woPetals]]'' loves to use this trope often with its various couplings.
** Referenced in the seventh game between Runa and Takako:
{{quote|'''Takako:''' Wawawah, o-our fingers...our fingers are intertwined!
Line 134 ⟶ 133:
 
== Web Comics ==
* Happens between Jordi and Jeremy in [https://web.archive.org/web/20110703044839/http://tf2.skyscrapersoup.com/?p=186 this page] of ''[[Cuanta Vida]]'', right before Jeremy {{spoiler|confesses to Jordi that he's in love with him}}.
 
 
== Web Original ==
* Seems to be a regular occurrence in [https://web.archive.org/web/20120509233558/http://underthevangogh.blissful-madness.com/ Under the Van Gogh], at least in the early acts.
* Mille and Iriana in ''[[Ilivais X]]'' do this all the time. They have a joined scar/ [[Red String of Fate]] on their pinkies, so they keep those joined while all the rest intertwine. It's notable that this particular hold is a symbol for their relationship as a whole- it wants to fit, and it should fit, but it's definitely strained and it takes a bit of awkward fidgeting to get it right. Go on. Try it.
