Goodreads asked Amy Quick Parrish:

Who is your favorite fictional couple, and why?

Amy Quick Parrish This is a hard question because fictional couples work best when they aren't together. A happy couple makes for a boring story. I think some of my favorite couples only had a few scenes together. For example, in Pulp Fiction, I always liked the way Butch worked so hard to control his raging temper around Fabienne. After the terrible experience with Marcellus and the Gimp and Zed, he still listens to her woes about how they didn't have blueberry pancakes; she had to get buttermilk. It's a little detail and they're not major characters in the movie, but here's a guy with a completely different life than that of his girlfriend and yet he takes the time to listen to her and has empathy for her problems, however minor they may be. Her character also shows another side of him that you would never have expected.

I also really like Sarah Conner and Kyle Reese from the original Terminator. They only had the one night together, but, as he said, he travelled through time for her. Best pick up line ever! I love that he fell in love with her because of a photo John gave him and when Sarah finally takes the photo, she is thinking about Kyle. Time loops are the best.
