Victim Falls For Rapist: Difference between revisions

* Nine times out of ten, any fanfiction of ''[[Kingdom Hearts]]'' involving Kairi getting raped usually ends with her falling in love with the guy who raped her... such as Pete for instance.

* Subverted/Averted with the Sherlock fic "A Reliable Man". (Chapter 1 can be found [http://randomly-rusted.livejournal.com/559.html here].) Mycroft is disturbing, but still sympathetic particularly when he {{spoiler|realizes the [[Break the Cutie|effect]] that his [[What the Hell, Hero?|threats]] [[Be Careful What You Wish For|have]] on [[My God, What Have I Done?|Lestrade]].}}

** Rance plays with this trope in unusual ways in that he very clearly believes that it applies in-universe, so much so that when Kenshin falls for him the ''normal'' way he has no idea how to handle it. And yet various comments scattered throughout the game make it clear that Rance has no evil in his heart, and ''honestly doesn't understand'' that rape is harmful, at least not when he does it.

** Rance, while he doesn't comprehend that rape is wrong, believes that regardless of the situation, both parties should be at least physically satisfied at the end of it. Hence why when he found out a character was raped in order to traumatize them, he was enraged beyond imagination.

* [[Embric of Wulfhammers Castle]] has the Duchess of Elstwhere raped by Carmina, a dark elf sorceress, in an elaborate [[Nightmare Fuel]] ritual surrounded by skeletons and dark-elf attendants. Since it happens [[All Just a Dream|in a dream]], [[Double Standard Rape (Female on Female)|Carmina is a woman and the Duchess is a lesbian]], and [["It's Not Rape If You Enjoyed It"|Duchess describes the encounter in detail to titillate her maid]], Carmina is easily forgiven, and the two fall in love; they're the only couple that gets a truly "happily ever after" ending.

* In ''[[Alice: Madness Returns]]'', {{spoiler|Angus Bumby was infatuated with Alice's sister Lizzie. Lizzie however hated Bumby since she could see that he was [[Obviously Evil]]. Believing that she was playing hard to get, he then sneaks into her room, rapes her and then burns down the Liddel household in order to cover his tracks.}}
