Examples of [[{{TOPLEVELPAGE}}]]s in [[{{SUBPAGENAME}}]] include:
 
* [[The Teraverse]] fic ''[http://www.tthfanfic.org/Story-31699/CaptainBoulanger+It+s+Just+A+Habit.htm It's Just A Habit]'', in which a superheroine nun explains that she has ''not'' adopted a comic-book superheroine style codename... and as for that so-called 'nun costume'? "It's just a habit."
* John Freeman got on his motorcycle and said "its time for me to live up to my family name and face [[Half Life: Full Life Consequences|full life consequences"]]
* The ''[[Invader Zim]]'' story "[[In Short Supply]]" features one in Chapter 29, when Red muses that "even for the Control Brains, information about Purple was in short supply." The title is actually supposed to be a pun on the Irkens' height-based society, though, and how Irkens of certain heights are much rarer than they should be.
* The ''[[Firefly]]'' fic ''[[Forward]]'' drops its title at the end of the "Mosaic" story arc, with Mal telling River what direction they have to keep going in.
* There is a stuble one in ''[[Kira Is Justice (Fanfic)|Kira Is Justice]]'': When Justin decides to experiment with the Death Note, one of the victims yell out the words, "Kira is justice!" in a prison cafeteria before dropping dead. [[Crowing Moment of Funny|It is very amusing]].
* In the ''Sonic the Hedgehog'' fanfiction ''Created Equal'', the speech {{spoiler|Metal Sonic}} gave after {{spoiler|Eggman's}} death
{{quote| "Flesh and blood have no purpose in this place. God made all men equal and men destroyed their gods. A man created me to be equal and I have destroyed that man. I laid waste to his empire of dust. Now I rule the empire of dust. And I will lay hands on that dust and create my own posterity. And I shall hold them to my single inglorious propositon; all robots are not Created Equal..."}}
* In ''Fantendo: Playing War'', before Sandslash transforms into Sandsmash and is consequently knocked out, Sunnyscythe utters "Let's play war...". There's actually a couple more of these, another by Sunnyscythe and yet another by Fantasma.
* [http://www.interrobangstudios.com/potluck/index.php?strip_id=1052 Ensign Sue must die!]
* In the ''[[Star Trek]]'' fanseries ''Hidden Frontier'', Commodore Cole drops the title of the show in the middle of a speech she gives in the sixth season premiere, as the blockade of starships is about to {{spoiler|go into battle with the Tholians and the Breen who just started a war with the Federation.}}
* ''[[Dragonball Z Abridged]]'''s 2010 [[Christmas Special]]: ''The Christmas Tree of Might''
{{quote| "Time to plant The Tree...of Might...the Christmas Tree of Might..."<br />
"Ohhhhh...[[Lampshade Hanging|title drop]] }}
* Done twice for the title and more than a few times for the subtitle of ''[[With Strings Attached]]'', ''or The Big Pink Job'', as one of the nicknames the four give the Vasyn is exactly that.
** Several of the chapter names are title drops.
* ''[[Stars Above (Fanfic)|Stars Above]]'' follows [[Puella Magi Madoka Magica|Madoka's]] naming pattern, with [[Idiosyncratic Episode Naming|each chapter title culled from a line of dialogue.]] The title itself is dropped twice in Chapter 5.
* In [http://www.fanfiction.net/s/6854446/1/A_Trick_Gone_Wrong this] [[Prince of Persia]] fanfic, both the title of the movie and the title of the fic are dropped.
* ''[[Turnabout Storm]]'' title drops not the crossover itself, but [[Ace Attorney|both series]] [[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic|involved]] in it, in different opportunities.
{{quote| '''Phoenix:''' Sorry, but I don't believe you, ''my little pony''. Not for a single solitary second.<br />
'''[[Original Character|Sonata]]:''' I don't know what kind of ''trials and tribulations'' you've been through, but you're not changing my opinion. }}
* Each chapter of the ''[[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic|My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic]]'' fanfic [https://web.archive.org/web/20130813213433/http://www.fimfiction.net/story/16112/Whisperswhispers Whispers] is named after a phrase contained within.
* In ''[[Better Off Not Knowing]]'', regarding preteen viewpoint character Hakini:
{{quote|"She’d [[Happily Adopted|asked her parents, once, about the people who’d brought her into the world]]. They hadn’t been told names—only that they were better off not knowing."}}
* The ''[[My Apartment Manager is not an Isekai Character]]'' story [http://www.accessdenied-rms.net/forums/showthread.php?tid=14659 "Everyone's a Critic"] contains title drops for both the story and the project as a whole.
