* In the ''[[Harry Potter]]'' [[Fanfic]] ''[[After the End (fanfic)|After the End]]'', everyone is surprised to suddenly find out Eloise Midgen has become ''extremely'' attractive. Also Colin Creevey has become rather tall and good looking.
** Another fic, set five or ten years post-Hogwarts, has Harry encounter and become interested in a Millicent Bulstrode who has somehow transformed from hulking to [[Hot Amazon]]. (Sadly, it's actually a subversion, as the "new" Millicent is really an illusion used to lure Harry in as part of a scheme to do nasty things.)
** In contrast, JMaria's ''[http://www.tthfanfic.org/story.php?no=5279 Interoffice Stereotypes]]'' has a grown-up Millicent who, while not a stunning beauty, is in no ways hard on the eyes.
* Fans of ''[[The Great Mouse Detective]]'' who like [[Shipping]] the titular character with Olivia (canonically a young girl) [[Invoked Trope|invoke]] this trope to enable the pairing without being [[squick]]y.
* In the ''[[How to Train Your Dragon]]'' alternative continuity fanfic, ''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6318423/1/Hitchups Hitchups]'' has a parental version of this when Hiccup, having fled Berk with Toothless for two years of adventures, returns to help his people against the Red Death. To the Berkians amazement, the clumsy boy named Hiccup has returned as a mighty and tested [[Dragon Rider]] warrior on top of being a brilliant inventor and dragon expert favored by Thor himself.
