Line 97:
* ''[[Buffy the Vampire Slayer]]'' fanfic had Giles/Buffy. Note that this is never even suggested in the series, with the exception of a few jokes about how Giles spends all of his time around adolescent girls ([[And Zoidberg|and Xander]]).
** There's also (a lot of) canon Angel/Buffy. Although, they both act like clueless fifteen year olds during the time they're in a relationship, Angel is actually over two hundred years old and rarely shares information if he can avoid it.
*** He's also an expert in emotional manipulation - well, Angelus is, but Angel shares the skills if not the motivation - and with a sexual history encompassing literal centuries of time and several continents while Buffy is, at this point in time, a naïve teenaged virgin. Emotionally she's completely defenseless against him and utterly unequipped to handle him, and only Angel's own sense of self-restraint could keep from twisting her head around at will. Buffy eventually gets over this when Angel loses his soul and goes psychotically evil on her, but at the cost of her relationship crashing and burning and with serious emotional damage and intimacy issues that arguably plague her for the rest of her life.
* ''[[House (TV series)|House]]'' had House/Cameron.
** And later, Cuddy/House.
