Line #27 SickeninglySweethearts/Literature


1	----
2	* In ''Literature/HalfPrince'', Wacko/Neurotic and Dandan. Makes it hard to believe that they're the [[spoiler: ninth and fifth strongest players respectively.]]
3	* In ''Literature/ACivilCampaign'' Rene and Tatya Vorbretten are cuter than cute together. And they're Barrayarans. What is Barrayar coming to?
4	* There's a character (Manilov) in Creator/NikolaiGogol's ''Literature/DeadSouls'' who shares with his wife a sickeningly sweet affection.
5	* In ''Literature/DiaryOfAWimpyKid,'' the couples in Greg's grade have a table of their own in the cafeteria because nobody else can stand to sit near them. Greg comments, "Let's just say you couldn't ''pay'' me to watch Abigail feed Rowley his pudding every day."
6	* The main leads of ''Literature/GrandmasterOfDemonicCultivationMoDaoZuShi'', after finally becoming a couple, are shamelessly affectionate in public and in front of Lan Sizhui, who's basically their adopted son. When Wei Wuxian gets frightened by a dog, he exchanges mushy dialogue with Lan Wangji, demanding to be hugged tight, and they do so in front of allies and enemies alike. In the extras, Wei Wuxian is said to end up wearing Lan Wangji's clothes every couple of days, and he has no qualms about sitting in Lan Wangji's lap in front of Lan Sizhui.
7	* In the second book of the ''Literature/GuardiansOfGaHoole'' series, the Band comes across a pair of sooty owls that do not give their names but refer to each other as Sweetums and Swatums. They preen each other and talk about eating sugar gliders (which taste very good to them but are too sweet for other owls) while speaking to the group.
8	* The [[OfficialCouple main characters]] in the WebSerialNovel ''Literature/HandsHeldInTheSnow'' are extremely affectionate from basically their first date. Somehow, it never gets on anyone else's nerves, at least as far as either of them ever notice.
9	* In Salman Rushdie's ''Literature/HarounAndTheSeaOfStories'' Prince Bolo and Princess Batcheat are like this, to the disgust of absolutely everyone around them. Bolo is so oblivious (and stupid) that he constantly praises the silly Batcheat for her beauty and her singing voice, both of which are described in detail as completely horrendous.
10	* Lavender and Ron in ''Literature/HarryPotterAndTheHalfBloodPrince''. On second thought, just Lavender:
11	-->"...if Ron was going to begin calling her 'Lav-Lav', he [Harry] would have to put his foot down."
12	** Bill and Fleur fit this trope as well, especially if you ask Ginny and Hermione.
13	** When contemplating the idea of Ron and Hermione getting together, Harry fears (among other things) that they might turn out like this, using Bill and Fleur as an example. Sadly, the series ends before we find out.
14	* In Creator/RickRiordan's ''Literature/TheHeroesOfOlympus'' book ''The Mark of Athena'', Rhea Silvia and Tiberinus.
15	* Crown Prince Roger and his girlfriend Rivka in the Literature/HonorHarrington novel ''Ashes of Victory'', though they're not seen onscreen; the Queen's chief bodyguard calls them "unbearable adolescent goo". When they do get actual screen time in ''A Rising Thunder'' for their wedding, they've gotten over it.
16	* ''Literature/TheHungerGames'': Katniss and Peeta sometimes make use of this trope to sell their (maybe not entirely) fake romance to the Capitol audience.
17	* Bingo Little and [[spoiler:his wife, Rosie]] in the ''Literature/JeevesAndWooster'' series. Bertie attributes this to the fact that [[spoiler:[[ThinksLikeARomanceNovel Rosie is a romance novelist]]]].
18	* Parodied in one of the ''Literature/JWWellsAndCo'' novels by Creator/TomHolt, where a bickering couple are tricked into overdosing on love potion. They start using pet names at the end of every sentence but retain their normal personalities, leading to sentences like, "Don't be such a bloody idiot, honey-bunny".
19	* ''Literature/TheMortalInstruments'': Clary sees [[spoiler:Luke and her mother Jocelyn]] as this.
20	* Underplayed in ''Literature/{{Renegades}}'' - Captain Chromium and Dread Warden are the world's "it" couple, and they're incessantly cute with each other, both in public and in private. Adrian thinks it's lovely, and Nova thinks it's disgusting.
21	* ''Literature/TheStormlightArchive'': Shallan and Adolin become this within about five minutes of meeting each other, especially from Kaladin's perspective -- though he admits he's probably just being overly cynical. Even Shallan realizes it, and is rather embarrassed, but Adolin seems happily oblivious.
22	* ''Literature/TalesOfKolmar'': As newlyweds, Lanen and Varien are like this, with Jamie even hanging a lampshade on it and them teasing each other about trying to tone it down in front of him. However, they do find difficulties, pains and sorrows and arguments that can't be soothed away with a touch or a few words, and eventually the relationship smooths into HappilyMarried. They still get silly sometimes, but Lanen notes that their bond is more complex now.
23	* ''Literature/TheTwilightSaga'':
24	** Edward and Bella
25	** Alice and Jasper.
26	** Heck, just about every couple from the books.
27	** Every vampire couple. The only human couples worth mentioning are either broken up (Bella's parents, Jessica and Mike), basically nonexistent (Angela and Ben), or barely begun by the end of the series (Charlie and Sue Clearwater).
28	** The werewolves and the girls that they imprint on. To the point in which the other wolves in the pack do not look forward to mindlinking with a wolf who had just been visiting his imprintee.
29	* In ''Literature/WolfHall'', Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn oscillate between this and arguing, with little in-between. Thomas Cromwell privately finds the latter easier to take than the "billing and cooing" but [[ForegoneConclusion as we all know]], that took a rather dark turn.
30	* In the ''Literature/WarriorCats'' book ''Riverstar's Home'', Riverstar and Finch talk about how they would have missed each other once Finch changes her mind and decides to join Riverstar on his journey back to the forest. Drizzle rolls her eyes and grumbles that she hopes they won't be like that all the way home, and Finch promises to try to not be too soppy.
