** Definitely love. "''[[Shout-Out|And who could say?]] [[The Lord of the Rings|Beyond the circles of the world, there might indeed be more than memory, even for creatures not designed to die]]''" is straight out of ''The Tale of Aragorn and Arwen''.

** Aziraphale gets another moment of awesome at the climax of ''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3547876/1/When_Summoning_Please_Watch_The_Wording When Summoning, Please Watch The Wording]''. Long story short, some wannabe Satanists have crossed the [[Moral Event Horizon]] in truly nasty fashion and then mock Zirah for being the "pathetic lackey of a dead god". At which point Zirah [[Beware the Nice Ones|shows them exactly how "pathetic" good can be]]:

** There are a lot of them in ''[http://icarus-chained.livejournal.com/159049.html Arrangements]'', but this troper's favorite has to be when {{spoiler|Crowley and Gabriel are trapped by Lucifer and left to the mercy of a group of human demons. Aziraphale, Castiel, Sam, and Dean are in the same building and fighting hordes of other human demons to get to them, but will never get there in time. Crowley, who at this point is trapped by holy fire and unable to help Gabriel physically, promptly flips out and stops the human demons by transforming into an [[Eldritch Abomination]] and [[Mind Rape|driving pure, unadulterated terror straight into their minds]]. He then goes on to do the same thing to ''every single human demon in the building'', effectively ending the fight without ever leaving his prison. And this is after he'd spent most of the fic being the [[Non-Action Guy]].}} The chapter is very aptly titled [[Big Damn Heroes]].

{{quote|Fear was something else. Fear was something uniquely, terribly ''human'', an immovable part of the psyche. And Crowley was the Serpent of Eden. The first demon humanity ever met. The only reason they ''had'' primal fears was because he'd ''put'' them there.}}

**** [[Crowning Moment of Heartwarming|And he does]].

*** This is followed by Lars giving Skuld a much needed [["The Reason You Suck" Speech]]. Again, nothing many of us in the AMG fandom haven't been thinking'...

** The ''Stiletto'' {{spoiler|blowing up two [[Battlestar Galactica|Resurrection Ships]] with a single shot}}. After taking city-killer nukes without shields or damage.

** {{spoiler|People of Nesme, I present to you [[This Is My Boomstick|the Kalashnikov!]]}}

* Nigh everything written by [http://www.fanfiction.net/u/1308758/lord_of_the_land_of_fire lord of the land of fire]. While I can't endorse the sex scenes, he manages to make some very awesome scenes that readers often fail to fully appreciate the Awesomeness of. "A Few Angry Words" contains a paralel to [[The Bible|Revelation Chapter 19 (Yes, that's the Second Coming of Jesus)]], while "The True Monster" contains a rather thorough paralel to World War II! Just when you think this guy has written himself into a corner, he comes out with something even more awesome as a resolution.

* Edward Elric gets one in ''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2929916/1/Invert Invert]'', a ''[[Fullmetal Alchemist]]''/''[[Harry Potter]]'' crossover. Bound by magic and being mindraped by Voldemort, Ed breaks Voldemort's concentration by calling up an image of the Gate of Truth, causing it to manifest for a few moments before fading out. In the distraction, Ed breaks Voldemort's grip on him and ''kicks him in the balls'' for good measure.

* An OC named Philip gets one in the W.I.T.C.H. Fanfic [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3134487/5/WITCH_POWER_The_Dream_Comes_Real WITCH POWER] by Xen Kenshin when he completely DESTROYS {{spoiler|Nerissa's demonic minions Shagon and co.}} because of an unstoppable rage.. downside? He kills his love interest {{spoiler|Irma.}}

* In ''[[Daria]]'' fanfic, two OC's are living, breathing CMOAs every time they show their faces! ''Jim Vitale'' (especially when written by Scissors MacGillicutty) and ''Black Majesty'' (when written by Roentgen). The pinnacle of the [[Big Bad]], both are superb examples of the [[Manipulative Bastard]] who lives by [[The Plan]]- and while Black Majesty is probably [[Like a Badass Out of Hell]], Vitale is a fusion of [[Bunny Ears Lawyer]] and [[Badass Normal]] with his own [[Catch Phrase|CatchPhrases]] (anyone who he calls 'asshat' is in for a world of 'ow', people he calls 'sport' should watch their backs, and as he says, 'the law is just what lawyers do with it'), his own version of the [[Kubrick Stare]], a [[Compelling Voice]] and takes any woman in sight that he wants - because [[All Girls Want Bad Boys]], and he's a amped-up version of [[Draco in Leather Pants]].

** Subverted brutally when resident [[Butt Monkey]] Tom Sloane, who has powers equal to a Kryptonian, charges the other side's resident [[Flying Brick]] and dials it [[Up to Eleven]] with ''a punch that actually causes nuclear-level effects in a straight line behind the girl for over a mile...'' [[The Worf Effect|and when the smoke clears, she is standing there, unaffected.]] To cap off the [[Humiliation Conga]], she drop-kicks him over the nearert river, almost as an afterthought.

*** And ''then'', it's even more brutally inverted when the [[Flying Brick]] decides to try a [[Badass Boast]]: 'I just want to hear three words from you two. 'We give up.' Quinn Morgendorffer, who is the resident [[Badass Adorable]] of the Legionnaires (and shows that [[Lightning Can Do Anything]]) kicks up her [[Power Levels]] to WAAAAAAY insane levels and becomes a walking [[BFG]] that vaporizes her in one shot as she does her ''own'' [[Badass Boast]]: 'You get ''one''. '' 'Bang'.''

** Original character David Allen Farrington, who's sporting some serious [[Psychic Powers]] (like Daria Morgendorffer herself, but his are turned [[Up to Eleven]] because he also has interactive powers like telekinesis - plus, he's a walking [[BFG]]), gets a couple himself. First, When he and Daria are having a tag-team bout of [[A God Am I]] by both tapping into cosmic forces, he defeats her by giving her a kiss - causing the cosmic power to withdraw from her instantly in a literal case of a [[Slap Slap Kiss]]. Then, when the rest of the Legionnaires come after him, he gets a ''little bit'' [[Drunk on the Dark Side]] (although some would say that it's more a ''literal'' case of [[This Is Your Brain on Evil]]) and starts cleaning house - starting with Quinn, who he tells, [[This Is the Part Where|'' 'This is the part where you go 'Ow'.' '']] Trust me when I say that [[It Got Worse|it gets worse]] until he's talked back down by [[The Power of Friendship]].

** Even though the entire battle happens in [[Cyberspace]], and nobody really got hurt, doesn't make it all any less awesome.

** Herman himself states that The Rhino once had one when he told The Kingpin that [[Thou Shalt Not Kill|he refuses to act as an assassin]].

** This troper thinks the moment that Shocker proves he really did invent his suit and gauntlets to Tony Stark was awesome. Stark and Reed Richards spent pretty much the entirety of their appearance up to then convinced that Shocker couldn't possibly have really invented the suit and gauntlets, that he MUST have stolen them from someone smarter. The moment that Stark realises that Shocker did actually invent them, and Shocker replies with a smug smile "That's right" was just great to see.

* This Troper found the end of "Chapter 23: For What Can Change" of ''[[Stray]]'' really powerful, maybe her absolute favorite in any fanfic, because she was counting bullets and realized [[Set Right What Once Went Wrong|what Adamska was about to do]]. Amazing scene.

* [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2600412/5/The_Hollow_Halloween This chapter] of this ''[[Fairly Oddparents]]'' fic, ''The Hollow Halloween'' by AmandaArtiste, presents one for Remy Buxaplenty, in which he shows us all that you simply should '''not''' try to brainwash Trixie Tang (and her friend) while he's around.

* The Master has many in the ''[[Doctor Who]]'' AU Fic ''[http://dwseason4.livejournal.com/4776.html Season Four]'', but his finest moment is in Chapter 13, {{spoiler|where he and the Doctor confront the Rani - who plans to establish a New Gallifrey for the currently human Time Lords in her possession at a psychiatric ward with the help of the Doctor and Master.}} The Master laughs hysterically at this and has this brilliant rebuttal:

{{quote|{{spoiler|"Oh, come ''on'', a Time Lord empire? Founded by the three of ''us''? There goes ''that'' policy of neutrality! No, wait, I've got it! I can make more black hole converters, you know. I can be Rassilon. Lucy, my dear, you get to be Omega, that would be fitting. Oh, Doctor, that leaves you as the Other. Yes, that sounds about right. I can rule for a thousand years of terror and the new Eye of Harmony will have all sorts of gadgets to keep it in check and they'll all be named after me! The Sash of the Master and the Key of the Master and the Seal of the Master. While we're at it we might as well have a bloody Trouser Press of the Master. Does that sound nice? Does that sound fun? Yes, come on, let's build a new Time Lord empire!"}}}}

{{quote|"I won't let you fight alone! This time, we're not going to be picked off one by one! NOT THIS TIME!" (...) "I won't lose again! THIS I DO SWEAR! We will defeat you and protect those we love! FOR I AM THE BATTLE PRINCESS OF THE WIND STORM! AND TOGETHER WE WILL DEFEAT YOU!"}}

** From the same series, "Afraid To Fly Part 2" gives us Shiho's moment of awesome. Her regret over how she used her Child in the original ''Mai-HiME'' has meant she's been unable to summon it ever since, but when someone else tries to summon her own Child against her, she reclaims control of it by confronting and overcoming her own past negative feelings.

* ''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5453047/1/Graveyard_Shift Graveyard Shift]'', a ''[[Mass Effect]]'' novelization being written by the same author behind ''[[Tiberium Wars]]'' and ''[[Forward]]'', has one for Wrex almost right off the bat, when a trio of assassins dressed up as C-Sec officers show up and try to "arrest" him. Wrex chats with them for a bit {{spoiler|before suddenly killing all three in the span of a couple of seconds with casual and insulting ease. Then he tells off the leader of the group, saying he's really disappointed with him for the "fake arrest routine."}}

* Latias from ''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/2053520/5/Latias_Journey Latias' Journey]''. She's depicted mostly as a gentle, somewhat timid and fearful Pokémon. That changes ''big time'' in Chapter 5. {{spoiler|After watching a bunch of evil bird Pokémon butcher a bunch of baby Flying and Bug types in Wing Fortress, she goes completely apeshit. The end result: a bunch of enemy Flying types lying in pieces in nursery, followed by a Psychic attack so powerful that it could best be described as a [[Fantastic Nuke|psychic nuke]]. ''That'' is followed up with an even more ''obscenely'' powerful Fire (or Dragon) attack that completely ''obliterates'' Wing Fortress and a large piece of the surrounding forest.}} It is ''[[Nightmare Fuel|utterly terrifying]]'' but at the same time [[Crowning Moment of Awesome|awesome]].

** Also, we have one for Sohm Vekt, a person who is normally considered a [[Red Shirt]], being able to gun down multiple [[Super Soldier]] [[Space Marines]] while his team is dying all around him... he's barely able to stand or crawl afterwards, sure, but this guy just punched out several guys way above his pay grade.

** Chapter 21: Chaos forces seem to be winning but the {{spoiler|GOD EMPEROR OF MANKIND}} shows up in the very ticked of and very powerful flesh, and basically has the Chaos forces all void their bowels, by just appearing there.

*** To clarify, {{spoiler|Speedball beats Dr. Doom into a bloody pulp, and then takes out the Sentry with a tape recorder.}}

** Namor broke his hands. How did he break his hands? He punched the Sentry's head into non-existence, that's how he broke his hands.

* In the [[Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha]] fic ''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5086723/1/Stahlkonigin Stahlkönigin]: Nanoha using full power, blaster-3 Starlight Breaker to destroy a target with MASSIVE magic defense? Business as usual. Vivio {{spoiler|withstanding the same attack for a minute or more in order to block it from hitting civilian buildings}}? Epic.

* In Silens Cursor's fic [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4714715/1/Renegade_Cause Renegade Cause], Chapter 35 {{spoiler|(the invasion of Azkaban by Voldemort's amassed army)}} is rife with Moments of Awesome. Between {{spoiler|Tonks' brutal and bloody battle with a traitorous Auror, Sirius 300-kicking Bellatrix down a flight of stairs, the desperate charge of the Azkaban guards against a horde of escapees and werewolves led by Fenrir Greyback himself, and the epic stalling fight between Voldemort and a vastly-outclassed Kingsley Shacklebolt}}, it's a chapter to be remembered as epic and awesome.

* The ''[[Homestuck]]'' fanfiction [[We're All Doomed|Were All Doomed]] has many, so I'll just list a few:

** Chapter 9: Tavros out-raps Dave. That is all.

** Chapter 12: All {{spoiler|eleven}} trolls team up to beat {{spoiler|Gamzee}} AND THEY MANAGE TO DO IT WITHOUT A SINGLE PERSON GETTING KILLED.

{{quote|''Your passion has done little to change my perception of you, young man, other than to make me realize that you truly believe in foolishness. That is a shame all the more; your father said you were intelligent. You have said enough. I have a high tolerance, but my patience is depleted in the case of your "righteous" crusade. You claim of yourself what you like, but you are no different than the myriad of children that have preceded you. I am well aware that the passion for academics does not exist in the vast majority of my students; not even those before me now. But the difference between them and those that are like you is that they live their life with their own purpose and meaning, no matter the pointlessness of that goal. There have been many like you, Atticus, and you are not the last that will come to me before I pass on. They may lack your details, your acuity, even your bravery, but they all have one thing in common: their dissatisfaction. Boys like you exist for no other purpose than crush the beliefs of others, to make them squirm with gifts of intellect or courage. It may work with the young men that surround you, but not with me, and not with my brothers in Christ. We know who we are; that is a solidarity that you will never touch."}}

** Atticus is left utterly speechless.

{{quote|'''{{spoiler|Roy Earle}}''': Los Angeles is a big city, Jack. The police will find you, I swear it!

'''Jack Kelso''': Then I don't care.
