* Arguably the [[Harry Potter]] fanfic ''[https://web.archive.org/web/20120421084249/http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5688056/1/On_a_Clear_Day On a Clear Day]''. Draco works for a charity organisation. When the organisation plans a gala to raise money for the children who lost their parents in the war against Voldemort, Draco's boss demands that he makes sure that the Great Harry Potter is in attendance. The problem is that since the war, Harry has turned agoraphobic and refuses to leave Grimmauld Place, which prompts Draco to intentionally invoke this trope. It's not that he never leaves, but he goes there every day, sits around for hours and tries to annoy Harry into agreeing to come to the gala. {{spoiler|He succeeds.}}
* In the fancomic ''[[Girls Next Door]]'', the [[Pan's Labyrinth|Pale Man]] apparently followed Ofelia to the apartment building. He installed himself in Jareth's and Eric's kitchen, and to date has not left. They managed to get rid of him once "with the help" of the ''friendly'' Girl Scouts, but it came back and has a brownie slash since.
* In the ''[[Death Note]]'' [[Crack Fic]] ''[[All You Need Is Love]]'' ([https://web.archive.org/web/20120420010837/http://www.fanfiction.net/s/5949144/1/All_You_Need_is_Love here]) Naomi Misora [[Sympathy for the Devil|feels so sorry]] for her [[Stalking Is Love|stalker]], [[Big Bad|Light Yagami/Kira,]] [[I Have You Now, My Pretty|because he's being sexually harassed in the workplace]] that [[What Were You Thinking?|she invites him to stay at her place for a couple days...]] In the end Naomi ends up kidnapping Raye (her clueless fiancé) and fleeing the country to get away from Light. Meanwhile Light, who has to date not yet left her apartment, sends her a note informing her that the fridge is empty and now L and Matsuda (the stalker's stalkers) had followed him there and are in the process of "redecorating." The story then has a [[Time Skip]]-it's five years later and Light still hasn't left.
