A creative question; I never thought of this before. Since one couple didn't stand out right away I pondered this question for some time. My conclusion...I have two. I know, I know there's always one in the bunch who can't answer the question properly. However, hear me out please. As a science fiction AND fantasy fan, I took from each one.
My first couple is...Westley and Buttercup in "The Princess Bride."
Talk about passion! The way Westley and Buttercup look at one another and desire one another is the epitome of romantic love. The best part is, the desire is not temporary. After four years of being separated (and she believing he's dead) their passionate love continues as if only four days went by. And what man doesn't want to hear his lady say, "I will never love again" because he's no longer around?
My second couple can be found on the other end of the science fiction and fantasy spectrum...Han Solo and Princess Leia (I'm going to assume I can leave out from what story they're from).
I love the way Han and Leia banter back and forth, but hold a passionate love for one another and are not afraid to show it. They are clearly comfortable around one another. Their marriage demonstrates a wonderful trait that every marriage should have, an unconditional love that will not discriminate against emotional outburst. I also appreciate how they, like all parents, have struggled with parenting (I'll leave it at that).
