Hey does anyone know of any media where: character a semi-randomly gives a speech about how much they trust character b, unknowingly guilting character b into not going through with or saving character b from their murder plot?
@Satsuma Yeah I could swear I've seen something like that before, but I'm blanking on examples too.
@Satsuma i feel like the more common form of this trope is where the speech happens after the ship has already sailed regarding B’s plot and they wish they could take it back or try to
@Lady yeah i’ve definitely seen the tragic mirror of this trope as well
But like, i do think ‘last minute save’ is an established variant
I realize this is highly specific but I feel in my heart that it's a trope and I'm struggling to think of examples (besides the one that inspired the q)
