Surprise Incest	comment	The Game the Whole Family Can Play! Haha! Guess what you were doing? Sometimes in stories, two people meet and just seem destined for romance. Love blossoms in a particular way, or perhaps the two have a loveless Arranged Marriage lying in wait for them instead. But then, someone makes a startling discovery — genetics has struck! The couple-to-be are related — and not in the "same species" sense — and the romance or arranged marriage is called off. The result may be either great rejoicing or great despair. If it's not called off despite the consanguinity issue, intentional Brotherâ€“Sister Incest results. Or if the two still want to be together and the author doesn't want to go the incest route, a counter-reveal may show up to prove that the genetics aren't a problem after all. These days, many people are squicked out by this, so the characters often find out before they tie the knot/do the nasty. This wasn't always the case; Oedipus was very happily (but unknowingly) married to his own mother for many years and had two daughters with her before things fell apart (to the extent that The Reveal resulted in Oedipus' mother killing herself and Oedipus himself stabbing his own eyes out), so this is Older Than Feudalism. Still, this trope is surprisingly common in anime and manga, as well as other Japanese entertainment, due to much more relaxed views on the subject in Japan. The surprise relationship is usually either brother/sister or half-siblings (sharing one parent rather than both). Parent/child is much rarer these days than it was in ancient Greece, and similarly for uncle/niece or aunt/nephew, thanks to some cultures' taboos on inter-generational relationships, even with no family relations involved. First cousins, on the other hand, are only borderline squicky since marriage between cousins is actually legal in most places and is quite acceptable in many romance novels. In fact, in the Arabian Nights, a man will call a woman he loves or is married to "daughter of my uncle" because, at that time, marriage between cousins was considered the best option! Because of this, it almost never appears as a plot point since it's a little too close for some folks to be comfortable but not close enough that the plot demands the relationship break up. For relations more distant than first cousins (second cousins, removals and etc.), the squick diminishes with the distance. After all, thanks to how genetics and inheritance works within populations, if you're still having a problem with people who might be, say, 10th cousins or higher, the only relationship you're likely to be assuaged by is one where the couple come from radically different population groups.note To give a more concrete example: the British panel game QI once made an announcement that they knew for a fact that one of the panelists that evening was a descendent of the legendary 8th century ruler Charlemagne. Who was it? One of the panelists guessed it immediately - all of them. As well as the host, and the audience, and anyone watching at home, assuming they were from Europe at any point in their family tree. And it wasn't that Charlemagne Really Got Around, it was just that with so many generations since his time, everyone, by dint of pure mathematics (again, if you are of a European background) had to have at least some relationship with him. The relationship is more like to be on the paternal side, because of Mama's Baby, Papa's Maybe. Historically was a fairly common way of making the Veronica of a Betty and Veronica off-limits. This often results in Half-Sibling Angst. If the characters don't know the truth in advance but the audience does, this overlaps with Dramatic Irony. There's also potential for overlap with Incest-ant Admirer if the admirer isn't aware of the familial relation but the object of their affection is, or if the reveal of said relation bothers one party but not the other. Expect spoilers.

Surprise Incest / int_10d30395	comment	In Shin Megami Tensei II, for most of the story, there's plenty of Ship Tease between Aleph and Hiroko. Later, it is revealed that Hiroko's missing son that she was looking for since the beginning of the story was actually Aleph all along. Aleph was a genetically-engineered Artificial Human created by The Center and Hiroko was selected to be his surrogate mother. Due to his altered biology, he aged very rapidly to the point where he appeared to be the same age as Hiroko when they first met.

Later, it turns out that they're half-siblings, sharing a father. This doesn't seem to deter them in the least, as they wind up committing and getting married. As a bonus, the couple above is involved in a sort of love triangle with a third person who, unbeknownst to all three at the time, is actually their father.

Surprise Incest / int_1463a028	comment	Law & Order: Special Victims Unit: Occurred in at least one plotline. The girl was the product of her mother's affair with the boy's father, and when the two began dating due to accidental reverse psychology (the mothers hated each other - the father was in fact the husband of both and living a double-life, known about by one of the wives the whole time), the girl is accidentally killed by her father when he reveals to her that he is the boy's father too. The autopsy reveals that the girl was pregnant when she died and that the boy was the father and that he was related to her. The boy is horrified and vomits in Stabler's office. The boy's mother kills his father when she finds out that he was planning on leaving her for the girl's mother, who was jailed for her part in the myriad crimes going around and with whom he also has a son, the boy's half-brother, and leaving the two new half-brothers without any parent not in prison. A truly dark example in season 19's "Send In the Clowns." A teen goes missing in New York and a butcher is accused of the crime. It turns out she's been having an affair with her music teacher who hailed her genius at the piano. The cops bring them both in as the girl's mother slaps the teacher and starts ranting about his seduction methods with obvious first-hand knowledge. She confesses to her husband she had a one-night stand with the guy...17 years ago. "Do the math." The man himself is utterly horrified and nearly throttled by the husband, and it's reported he's on suicide watch. His daughter's reaction? She's happy because she now knows her father is a musical genius, not "a garbage man", and Benson realizes the girl is deeply troubled.

Surprise Incest / int_14915e81	comment	In the Burke's Law episode "Who Killed the King of the Country Club?" had the killer trying to avoid this. A new member of the club turns out to have been killed by an elderly woman whose daughter had started dating the man. When the horrified daughter asks why her mother did this as "I loved that man!" her mother reveals "that man was your father!" 25 years earlier, she'd had a one-night stand with a plumber just a month before her wedding. She was thus able to pass off the child as her husband's. As fate had it, the plumber ended up becoming a millionaire to join the club and the woman was terrified he would end up in bed with their daughter. Burke openly asks why she didn't just tell either the truth but the woman didn't want to ruin her own social status with the affair becoming public. She's led off as the daughter can't believe how close she came to bedding her own father.

She turns out to be Maddie Pryor, clone of Jean Grey, who Nate accidentally resurrected when subconsciously reaching out for the 616 version of Jean. Why would Nate have reached out to Jean? Why, she's his genetic mother — and thus, so is Maddie. The resemblance didn't matter — he'd only met his reality's version of Jean once, and had sensed a connection, even if he didn't know what it was. Anyhow, Nate and Maddie get along remarkably well, building a connection and a developing sense of Unresolved Sexual Tension, which the narrative (and some fans) gleefully fanned the flames of. Then Nate found out about his connection to Jean and Maddie — thankfully before they'd got closer than an Almost Kiss or two. He backed off sharply. Maddie, on the other hand, was a textbook Tsundere (to occasionally murderous extents) whose attitude was neatly summed up by the notoriously suggestive cover to issue 41.

Ah, so the Love Triangle will be easily solved, won't it? Wrong. Kaname confirms she's his sister and states she was born to become his wife.

Later it turns out that Kaname wasn't her brother, but a distant ancestor who had been asleep for hundreds, if not thousands, of years and her real brother was given to him as a blood sacrifice so that he could be revived.

Surprise Incest / int_1d8df2cf	comment	All over the place in the 0verflow universe (which School Days is a part of), thanks to the omnipresent patriarch Tomaru Sawagoe banging a lot of women (even those related to him) and maintaining his secrecy in regards to his kinship with many characters. As a result, a lot of characters who are in romantic or sexual relationships share a familial connection that can be traced back to the Tangled Family Tree that he has made. One prominent example would be Makoto with Sekai & Setsuna, who are AT BEST half-uncle and half-nieces thanks to the former being Tomaru's son with one of his nurses and the latter two being Tomaru's granddaughters with other relativesnote For further context as to how horribly inbred their babies are, here's the rundown: Tomaru and his half-sister Moegi are the parents of Kagura and Youko. Tomaru also impregnated Kagura's friend Hatsuka with a son named Shun. Shun ALSO Really Gets Around and has fathered several of the heroines, including Sekai who is his daughter with Youko. Setsuna is Shun's daughter with Mai. Mai happens to be one of the many children Tomaru sired by Kagura, his daughter/half-niece. And while the canonical family tree only confirms that Makoto gets Sekai and Setsuna pregnant, there are routes in Shiny Days where Youko and Mai have his babies too.

Surprise Incest / int_2192aeb3	comment	In the Fire Emblem franchise: In Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War: Seliph and Princess Julia seem instantly attracted to each other upon meeting, but it turns out that Julia is Seliph's inbred half-sister, as Seliph's mother Deirdre was brainwashed and forced to breed with her half-brother Arvis (who had no idea that they were siblings). There's a reason that the game's Relationship Values system won't allow them to be paired—unless you exploit a programming glitch. In the first half, Claude's most popular pairing is with Sylvia, who is hinted to be his long-lost sister, but said by Word of God to be a distant cousin. In Fire Emblem: Awakening it was implied that Lissa was smitten with a man posing as Marth who had saved her from Risen. Keep in mind, that Marth is her distant ancestor, but it turns out that 'Marth' was actually Lissa's niece from the future. In Fire Emblem Fates, the Male Avatar gets a nice dose of Ship Tease with Azura...and then the Golden Path reveals they're cousins. And since The Reveal doesn't occur until almost the end of the game, there's a solid chance they'll be married at that point. Given the medieval-esque setting, though, and how neither seems to particularly care about the relation if they are married, marrying one's cousin is probably seen as an acceptable thing. And note The Reveal only happens extremely late in the Golden Path: they could theoretically marry in any of the paths, meaning in two of them they never find out they're cousins.

Surprise Incest / int_2dfb1427	comment	In the Baldur's Gate series, Imoen and the main character (if he's male) have the sort of sorta flirty relationship you'd expect from lifelong friends of opposing genders. For that matter, if the main character's female they have the sorta flirty relationship you'd expect from lifelong friends of that sort. When Baldur's Gate II was released and Imoen was not one of the characters with whom you could pursue a romantic relationship, a lot of fans of the original were very surprised and rather disappointed... until you found out that Imoen was your half-sister. This is actually brought up in Baldur's Gate II: Throne of Bhaal if the main character's male. Viconia insists to Imoen that given the number of times he's saved her life, she should serve him in every way. Imoen acts squicked and cites why. Viconia brushes it off, pointing out that the common heritage would hardly one of blood. Imoen then notes that — canonically by that point — the main character has saved Viconia's life at least twice... Some people did a mod that allows this relationship; the Imoen Romance mod for Baldur's Gate II is alive and well, and is widely known for near-total freedom of choice in the protagonist's options. Imoen is romanceable by both males and females, and to the mod's credit, does not shy away from the incest issue — Imoen in particular has issues with it.

They are only stopped when Rex, Cassie's twin brother, arrives and tells them that they are half-siblings. Before that, Cassie had a crush on and kissed her cousin Shawn-Douglas. Long before that in Days, Tony DiMera was in love with a woman named Renee. Unfortunately, it turned out they shared the same father, Stefano, but luckily it soon came out that Tony was really the son of the family's gardener, not Stefano (of course, since this was a soap by that point Renee had married another man...and then got killed by a serial killer...). For long-time fans, this caused a serious amount of squick when years later a retcon made Tony Stefano's biological son, but in the end another retcon made the Tony that had appeared since then his evil doppleganger Andre (long story, naturally) and showed that Tony wasn't Stefano's biological son after all.

Later on, it's revealed that Yumika and Takehito were High-School Sweethearts and that Takehito is also Yumina's biological father. In Yumina's route as well as the True ending, Yumina and Ayumu fall in love and hook up before the revelation that their parents are lovers, but even after they find out, they don't realize the implications that they're technically siblings until someone else points it out much later. Their immediate reaction is embarassment and disgust, followed by Ayumu trying to justify that it's okay because he's adopted while Yumina tells everyone (including Ayumu) to shut up because she doesn't want to think about how weird it is that her boyfriend is her brother, adopted or not. It doesn't help that Takehito fully acknowledges that they're both his children while still being extremely supportive of their relationship. Fortunately for them, the fact that they're siblings was never mentioned again after this scene.

Gag Battle was based on the first game and published prior to the release of the second, which revealed that Hama was Ivan's sister, making this a meta example. Mia and Alex, another popular pairing due to their shared history, were revealed to be cousins in Dark Dawn. While not strictly an example since they and the fans know darn well they're related, the fandom's unofficial name for the FelixÃ—Jenna pairing is "Oopsie-shipping".

It is at episode's end that she discovers why she's not attracted to him: they're cousins. In another episode an old female friend of Jack's shows up with her son, and he and Maya show signs of being interested in each other. Jack, however, is horrified, because he had a one-night stand right before her wedding and the timing would line up with him being the young man's father. Eventually she reveals that she secretly got a sample of Jack's DNA years ago and tested it, showing he's not the father. By this point, though, Nina's broken the news to the would-be couple, and the man is horrified, so he breaks up with Maya. Jack has Elliot, the magazine's head photographer, take his daughter Maya's new driver's license photograph. The UST between the two leads to a gorgeous photo, which Jack later sees and, not realizing, comments on the beauty of the woman in it. When reminded of his request, Jack takes it well.

This is played for laughs over the course of the movie until a scene where it is heavily implied Jimmy raped Adam while "she" was passed out in his room.

And since The Reveal doesn't occur until almost the end of the game, there's a solid chance they'll be married at that point. Given the medieval-esque setting, though, and how neither seems to particularly care about the relation if they are married, marrying one's cousin is probably seen as an acceptable thing. And note The Reveal only happens extremely late in the Golden Path: they could theoretically marry in any of the paths, meaning in two of them they never find out they're cousins.

Surprise Incest / int_6d9a0c36	comment	A rare ray of sunshine in The First Law is the romance between Savine dan Glokta and Crown Prince Orso dan Luthar. She's an ambitious social climber, he's a feckless royal layabout. After Savine has a close call in the uprising that forms the centerpiece of A Little Hatred, Orso proposes marriage, and Savine agrees. She comes home and glowingly tells her mother that she's going to be queen...and her mother is nearly sick. It turns out the man she knew as her father isn't her biological father; her mother was knocked up by the king, and they were married in order to keep her safe. Meaning that Savine and Orso have the same father. She immediately breaks it off with Orso and doesn't tell him why until after a bit of civil war in the next book.

A week later, his father gets remarried and his new stepmother brings her daughters Hina and Rui to live with them. As his feelings for the girls grow, he keeps trying to keep himself under control by reminding himself that they are his sisters. He eventually starts dating Hina, but that relationship ends because of their teacher/student relationship. Much later, he starts dating Rui, and while their relationship is much more stable, they still have to deal with the fact that they have to hide it from their parents.

The people involved are generally unaware, at least at the time. According to their plan, Jessica was supposed to have a daughter with Duke Leto Atreides. The daughter was then supposed to be married off to a Harkonnen heir in order to end their millennia-long rivalry. However, Jessica is actually Baron Vladimir Harkonnen's daughter (although she didn't know until Paul told her). This means that the plan was for Jessica's daughter to marry her cousin.

Then it turns out that she's really his sister. Once the reveal is made there's no change in plans or attitudes at all (although things change for other reasons) and the audience is apparently supposed to accept that "I care for this girl I know" and "I care for my sister" were exactly the same thing all along. There isn't even a lampshading. Although, to be fair, he never really seemed to think of her that way. Kamen Rider Den-O likewise sank the ship of Ryotaro/Hananote which already took a massive hit when Hana was de-aged to childhood by revealing that the latter was the former's Niece from the Future. Thanks, Time Travel! They still got off better than the Yuuto/Hana shippers, though. Kamen Rider Kabuto has plenty of Ship Tease for Tendou and Hiyori earlier in the series (with a guest actor who'd played Tendou as a child stating in an interview that he'd been led to believe Hiyori was Tendou's love interest.) However, Hiyori turns out to be a Worm that has copied itself from Tendou's sister, making them siblings. Subsequently, the show dropped any potential romantic arc between them and began having Kagami pursue her instead. Kamen Rider Amazons has Mizuki, who is initially presented as Haruka's foster sister, as his love interest in the first season. It's then revealed that they are genetic half-siblings because Mizuki's mother used her own DNA to create Haruka. The second season subsequently abandons the romantic angle.

However, Hiyori turns out to be a Worm that has copied itself from Tendou's sister, making them siblings. Subsequently, the show dropped any potential romantic arc between them and began having Kagami pursue her instead.

Oddly, it still hasn't stopped the fan pairing from still occurring.

Further, it's revealed (though to Apropos only) that the princess is the illegitimate daughter of the Queen and the court jester... and that answers Apropos's question of who his father is, as his mother was raped by a gang of knights... and a shadowy figure that matches the description of the court jester.

When she gets the test results confirming it, she... doesn't take it well. And for worse, Raita is accused of having killed her in a Yandere fit. Conan, through Kogoro, has to clear his name.

However, the other party does not find the truth out until one season later, but this revelation does not stop the two from still having romantic feelings for each other... at least before the older Jonas murders Martha in front of the younger Jonas to ensure his own timeline proceeds as happened. Season 2 reveals that Charlotte's daughter, Elisabeth, is also her mother, meaning that their husbands, Peter and Hanno/Noah respectively, unknowingly married their own granddaughters. Season 3 reveals the same deal to be true of the entire Nielsen/Kahnwald line, as Tronte Nielsen, Ulrich's father, was the son of The Unknown, the son of Martha (Ulrich's daughter) and Jonas (Ulrich's grandson, albeit not the same Ulrich). Meaning their partners all married, or at least had a child with, their own great-great-grandsons, who are also their great-great-great-grandsons, at least genetically. Oh, and Agnes and Noah's parents turn out to be Bartosz and Silja; Silja is Bartosz's half-great-aunt. Confused yet? So is the universe.

Surprise Incest / int_b30ae4db	comment	Game of Thrones: There's a somewhat squick-worthy one-sided example of this. In Episode 2 of Season 2, Theon Greyjoy returns to his homeland where he meets a young woman and they begin flirting. During a subsequent horseback ride, Theon begins feeling up the woman in a sexual manner (this is the series that led to the phrase "sexposition" being coined) and she not only doesn't object, she seems to take pleasure from it. A few minutes later, Theon (and the audience) get squicked when he learns that woman he was making out with was his sister, Yara, whom he hasn't seen since she was a child, and that she was aware the entire time and played along mostly to see how he'd react in a Secret Test of Character. Needless to say, he failed miserably. As of Season 7, there is sexual tension developing between Jon Snow and Daenerys Targaryen, and it stops being tension when they have sex in the season finale. However, unbeknownst to either of them they're nephew and aunt despite being the same age, as Jon is actually the son of Dany's much older brother Rhaegar. In Season 8, when they find out, Dany doesn't really care about the incest (coming from a dynasty and culture where marriage between siblings was a regular occurrence) and is more concerned that Jon's true heritage means he has a stronger claim to the Iron Throne than she does, as any legitimate child of Rhaegar would be ahead of her in the Targaryen line of succession. However, while Jon has sworn his undevoted allegiance to her and expresses no interest in disputing her claim, he is much more uncomfortable with their consanguinity, rebuffing Dany's romantic advances afterwards.

And Morguase didn't either, because if she had she'd have realized that her spell wouldn't work properly.)

They find out about each other and realize that they each have a 50/50 chance of being the twin. They both fall in love with the man a few episodes after this. The irony being the anime had one of the girls be the guy's sister, and the novelization had the other one.

As it turned out, Ellen was one of the Final Five and was essentially Cavil's mother. It was a double-whammy, too. Not only had Ellen viewed Cavil as a son, he was also designed to look like her father. Just another sign of how deep his misanthropy and hatred toward his "parents" really ran. And while Ellen was unaware of this due to amnesia, Cavil knew all about it and deliberately set it up.

The poor girl had her mother drop one hefty bomb on her. According to the mom, the girl's boyfriend, who she'd been openly having sex with, is actually her half-brother. The girl is devastated because she loves him tremendously and had to be told the terrible news on live TV. Only after the girl commits suicide by jumping off the roof of the hospital do we find out the mother had lied and only said what she said because she wanted to be on television.

Bill is far more grossed out by this than Portia. She is perfectly willing to continue their sexual relationship, citing logical reasons why this shouldn't affect them: they're consenting adults, vampires (in this setting) can't produce children, and even if they could, Bill and Portia are as genetically similar as perfect strangers. Nonetheless, Bill is simply too uncomfortable to continue a relationship with his great-great-great granddaughter, so he glamours her into being utterly terrified of him just so she will leave him alone. The one upside is that Bill develops an Odd Friendship with Portia's brother, Sheriff Andy, due to his ability to act on Bill's legal behalf as his living heir, with the bonus that Andy isn't trying to sleep with him.

It becomes clear pretty quickly that Karin is falling for Yuri, although he's still pining over his lost love from the first game in the series. However, at the end due to some messing around with the space-time continuum, Karin ends up traveling back in time and marrying Yuri's father...and becoming Yuri's mother. Good thing they never actually got together, eh? This makes sense in a twisted way. Considering that Yuri and his father were apparently very similar people, it does make sense that Karin first falls for Yuri in her time and for his father in the past. While they only remained friends, Yuri does manage to convince Karin to wear a very skimpy outfit. The scene becomes either squicky or more hilarious afterwards depending on how perverted your sense of humor is.

When her family finds out, they marry her off in a strategic alliance without telling her that the reason they're so horrified is that the druid (Ciaran) is actually the son of her mother's evil stepmother, thus making him her half-uncle. Oops. Their relationship is later vindicated though. Their daughter turns out to be the child of the prophecy, ending a longstanding feud with Britain over sacred ground. Unfortunately, Niamh never lived to see this, having been pushed off a cliff by the aforementioned evil stepmother when the child was a toddler. When you look at their family tree, Liadan and Bran/The Chief are second cousins.

Surprise Incest / int_e6318baf	comment	Midsomer Murders: In one episode, a man had 'spread his seed far and wide'—you could hardly turn a corner without finding one of his bastards. One couple didn't meet until they were both in graduate school in Canada and got married, only later realizing they were half-siblings; she was squicked, he didn't mind. It's also been used in several other episodes. Inverted in "The Creeper" where two childhood friends clearly like each other, but don't act on it because they believe they're half-siblings. (His parents were having trouble conceiving, and her father agreed to sleep with his mother to get her pregnant, but his mother's husband — who was okay with this — would be the father legally speaking. The kids were told when they were old enough to understand.) The investigation of that episode's murder leads to the revelation that his mother was also having an affair behind both men's backs, and her paramour was actually the kid's real father. Both friends are stunned, but admit they're sort of relieved they're not related after all, and the last scene heavily implies they've hooked up. "Master Class" has a young woman almost hook up with a much-older man who is not only her father, but also her grandfather, and he sought her out on purpose. (It turns out to be part of some crazy eugenics scheme on his part.) Fortunately, Barnaby reaches her and informs her before anything happens. In "Dark Secrets", a woman learns the younger employee she's been sleeping with is actually her nephew and is violently sick. Said young man doesn't react as much, because he's still under the shock of learning that he's the product of Brotherâ€“Sister Incest. In "The Killings of Copenhagen", Harry Calder is in love with (unbeknownst to him) his real half sister, Summer Haleston, who came to the town to met her real father, Eric. She does try and push him away knowing this, but after being questioned by the police she tells him. He is upset, but the problem was his fault not hers. In "For Death Prepare", Phoebe Whittingdale and Luke Dunlow become attracted to each other and plan to leave their village to travel the world. But one of the problems they face is Luke's father, Marcus, acting like he's creepily attracted to Phoebe while also trying to prevent Luke from leaving with her. At the end, Marcus explains what's really going on: he once had an affair with Phoebe's mother nine months before she was born and he always wondered if he was her biological father. Once Luke became attracted to her, Marcus broke into the local medical clinic to learn her blood type which ultimately confirmed his suspicions that he is indeed. Hence why he'd being trying to break up their relationship and also get to know her.

They didn't take it well, and lines like "We did so much!" imply there was more than just lips involved, though they seemed to have gotten over it by the end of the episode, apparently realizing that (given who they are) they were lucky to hook up with anyone at all that night.

Surprise Incest / int_f0a86c12	comment	How I Met Your Mother Robin and Barney were on their way to their wedding when they discovered they were related through a mutual cousin named Mitch. By the end of the episode, it's revealed that Robin at least is not blood-related to Mitch, so they manage to avert this trope. They did spend the entire episode awkwardly avoiding any sort of contact though. In an earlier episode, Barney is flirt-dancing with a girl in a disco. But he is only seeing her from behind, and she can't obviously see him at all in this position. Then she finally turns around - and Barney is recognizing his cousin. Quite disturbed, he tells Ted that they must never speak of this again, not even in the form of a funny "Do you remember that time when..."-style anecdote.

Surprise Incest / int_f10a65b	comment	In Legends of Tomorrow, after many time traveling adventures, Martin Stein's memories start gradually changing (mostly incoherent) and he repeatedly sees visions of a beautiful woman who isn't his wife. At first, he sadly assumes that changes to history caused him to get together with a different woman. When he finally meets her in the present, it turns out the woman is his daughter (he didn't have any children before history changed).

Surprise Incest / int_f163bd9f	comment	ElfQuest: It may never have been revealed to the characters, but Cutter once got it on with Kahvi during a pre-battle orgy, and Kahvi takes up with him while Cutter's family is lost in time, though it doesn't really work out. Much later, readers learned that Kahvi is the daughter of former Wolfriders chief Two-Spear. Cutter is a direct descendant of Two-Spear's half-sister, Huntress Skyfire, making Kahvi his cousin four times removed — which, especially considering the small gene pool of the Wolfriders, isn't spectacularly close. Also, with Recognition preventing conception for any but good genetic combinations, the elves may not have an incest taboo. Also, if one looks at Scouter/Tyleet's relationship, you'll realize they're second cousins (Brothers Longbranch and One-Eye, Longbranch sires Nightfall, One-Eye sires Scouter, Nightfall has Tyleet, Scouter and Tyleet Recognize). It makes sense, however, that such in-pairings will happen in such a small tribe — so yes, Recognition probably does take care of the biggest problem with incest. Thankfully, however, we haven't been subjected to any closer pairings...

Once they have assured the Charmed Ones of 1999 that theyâ€™re real, the young Phoebe asks if Chris is â€œ[her] own hunk of Whitelighterâ€�, leaving her older self embarrassed and young Phoebe herself disgusted once older Piper clarifies that Chris is her future son, and hence Phoebeâ€™s nephew.

Surprise Incest / int_fa1f2bfb	comment	The incest is averted in Havemercy, but just barely. Word of God has it that the authors had the brothers in question unrelated in an earlier draft, and deliberately included plenty of sexual tension and the possibility of a relationship between them. Later, they decided to take the relationship in a different direction and proceeded to erase all hints of UST between them. They were fairly unsuccessful, though, as most of the readers picked up on it anyway. Since the fact that they're brothers is hidden until near the end of the book, almost all of the readers were already shipping them by default by the time they found out. And once the ship has sailed, well, there's no calling it back to shore.

Meg and her friends actually get invited to a costume party, and she goes dressed as a Slutty Cat, complete with a mask covering 75% of her face. One game of spin the bottle/seven minutes of heaven later, she's escorted to the closet with someone in an all-concealing Optimus Prime costume. When they're in there too long, the door is opened to reveal it being Chris... While they're half-naked on the ground making out. They didn't take it well, and lines like "We did so much!" imply there was more than just lips involved, though they seemed to have gotten over it by the end of the episode, apparently realizing that (given who they are) they were lucky to hook up with anyone at all that night.

Due to Stable Time Loop, this means Kate's ex, who she spent years with, is also her great-great-grandson, something that hadn't occurred to the director. This is excised from the theatrical version, but remains in the director's cut.

Then it turns out that she's really his sister. Once the reveal is made there's no change in plans or attitudes at all (although things change for other reasons) and the audience is apparently supposed to accept that "I care for this girl I know" and "I care for my sister" were exactly the same thing all along. There isn't even a lampshading. Although, to be fair, he never really seemed to think of her that way.
