My favorite fictional couple is actually from my favorite book, The Silver Metal Lover, by Tannith Lee. Silver and Jain. it is a deep soul kind of love--one that transcends physical limitations in the world. Silver helps Jain become who she really is despite her fears of change. Jain makes Silver human. Love makes us human. I actually named one of my daughters Jain after the character.
