Line 117:
* Jones of ''[[Gunnerkrigg Court]]'' plainly [http://www.gunnerkrigg.com/archive_page.php?comicID=394 told her student] she's going to instruct, but not spoon-feed ready solutions. Maybe this only means she doesn't feel it's her right to, but the detached precision is so much in her style that Annie suspected Jones is a robot and some [[Wild Mass Guessing|fans suspect]] she's a ''[[Physical God|goddess]]''.
* In ''[[Panthera]]'', you could argue that this is the relationship between [[Action Girl|Tigris]] and [[Naive Newcomer|Onca]]. There's distinctly more "Sink Or Swim" than "mentor", though.
* ''[[Schlock Mercenary]]'' had moments. When they made Liz (Nick's girlfriend) a specialist lieutenant, she got two of these in a row: [https://www.schlockmercenary.com/2018-12-13 Tagon Senior]'s "you are an officer now!" lesson and then [https://www.schlockmercenary.com/2018-12-30 Schlock's] flight belt qualification. Both times this backfired a bit, in the first incident it turned out that her blank cheque includes Karl Tagon's own time, in the second she used Schlock as training equipment (not that it inconvenienced him too much).
