Line #17 HeterosexualLifePartners/Webcomics


1	* Black Mage and Fighter from ''Webcomic/EightBitTheater''. So...Fighter [=McWarrior=] and Blackmage Evilwizardington have been travelling together for probably years. No matter what made BM do that, it definitely qualifies them for the trope and if Fighter knew what heterosexual meant he'd probably describe their friendship like that. At least, ''Fighter'' would. Black Mage would stab Fighter a few dozen hundred times to illustrate his point as he said no. He would then probably Hadoken or [[spoiler:evilstab]] the questioner. If [[TheDitz Fighter]]'s memory is to be trusted, they have been [[VitriolicBestBuds "best buds 4-eva"]] since when they were both kicked out of their respective schools, and in the epilogue [[spoiler:continue to adventure together 3 years later.]]
2	* Axel and Zexion in ''Webcomic/AnsemRetort''. They're so close that Zexion was able to hit on Axel's wife -- ''during their wedding'' -- and not suffer a horrific death.
3	* Arthur and Lancelot in ''Webcomic/ArthurKingOfTimeAndSpace''. Which is... kind of awkward, in [[LoveTriangle the circumstances]], though it depends on the timeline. The "fairy tale" timeline strains their relationship the greatest, and they were never friends in the ''Series/{{MASH}}'' parody line. The present-day and sci-fi timelines (especially down the road a few years) treat it as just a fact of their relationship - they both love Guinevere and each other too much to let it get in the way, and it's ''usually'' only a problem if someone else makes it a problem for them (like, say, political realities of their relationship or someone trying to reveal the queen is "unfaithful"). (The final storyline reveals [[spoiler: Arthur loves Lancelot ''exactly'' the way he loves Guenevere]]).
4	* Rittz and Skip in ''Webcomic/BoxerHockey'' have been friends since childhood and still live together.
5	* ''Webcomic/BloodyUrban'' has two sets, the first being [[ThoseTwoGuys Murray and Shaz]], and the second Libby and Angelica (who are living together to boot).
6	* Donna and Mona in ''Webcomic/CestLaVie''. [[OddCouple One is French and deep, the other is Californian and something of a Valley Girl]].
7	* Rob and Jamie in ''Webcomic/{{Distillum}}'' are brothers in everything but blood.
8	* Bumper and Stunt of ''Webcomic/DominicDeegan'' - this has been noted by other characters in the series, often to tease Stunt, a staunch homophobe.
9	* Elliot and Tedd in ''Webcomic/ElGoonishShive'', driven home by the fact that, in an {{alternate universe}} where Elliot was born a girl, they're ''dating''. Later revealed by WordOfGod to be true in nearly every alternate continuity where they are both alive and sexually compatible. Which is probably why Lord Tedd is such a grumpy gus - no Elliot and no relief (his "Grace" is an extremely large (and male) squirrel hybrid by the name of General Shade Tail).
10	* ''Webcomic/EmergencyExit'' has quite a few relationships like this, the most obvious being the main characters and roommates Bob and Eddie, as well as Karl and Jason even though Jason technically expressed romantic interest in Karl, but since Karl's straight, they are only very close friends.
11	* Lucco and Guz in ''Webcomic/{{Fite}}'' are close enough to go SkinnyDipping together.
12	* Black and White from ''Webcomic/GreyIs'' live together and spend all their time together, and care about each other more than anyone else.
13	* ''Webcomic/GunnerkriggCourt'':
14	** Gamma and Zimmy's relationship is simultaneously sweet and toxic: On the one hand, Zimmy would gladly die if Gamma asked her to; on the other hand, [[LoveMakesYouEvil she poisons other people's friendships with Gamma]] to ensure she never leaves. It really doesn't help that Gamma is about the only thing that keeps Zimmy from freaking out and [[YourMindMakesItReal bad shit happening]]. WordOfGod is that they ''are'' together, romantically but not sexually, but in the comic itself, they're "only" this.
15	** Annie and Kat, to the point that their relationship is frequently used as a symbolic representation of the harmony between the Court and the Forest. Not heterosexual, however, as [[spoiler:Kat and Paz]] start dating in Chapter 42 and Annie comes off more asexual than anything else.
16	** Donald Donlan and James Eglamore. Surma noted in one flashback that when Jim was away for training, Donnie seemed to miss Jim more than she did. Surma was Jim's ''girlfriend'' at the time.
17	** Surma and Anja (Annie and Kat's mothers). It was due to this reason that Surma insisted on her and Anthony leaving the court during her pregnancy; [[spoiler:she couldn't bear the thought of Anja watching her slowly waste away after Annie's birth. It broke both their hearts.]]
18	* Casimiro and Finas of ''Webcomic/HannaIsNotABoysName'' have been together for centuries even though they are [[OddCouple polar opposites in personality]]. Cas describes their relationship as "too unique to put a label on", but says yes, Finas is his best friend.
19	* ''Webcomic/{{Homestuck}}'':
20	** [[TheHero John]] and [[TheLancer Dave]], despite never meeting in person. Their given names being the shortened forms of Jonathan and David is likely not a coincidence. The moirallegiance quadrant of [[BizarreAlienReproduction the trolls' romance system]] combines this trope with elements of MoralityPet, though it's not restricted by gender at all and the most prominent examples are boy-girl.
21	** ''Webcomic/SweetBroAndHellaJeff'' has...[[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin well]], Sweet Bro and Hella Jeff.
22	* Zeke Fahrenheit and Doofus J. Thump in ''Webcomic/HowToRaiseYourTeenageDragon'', as well as "Macho" Hannigan and George the Scourge.
23	%%* Gertrude & Brunhilda in ''Webcomic/{{The KAMics}}''.
24	* [[http://www.lackadaisycats.com/gallery/1298540544.jpg Viktor and Mordecai]] from ''Webcomic/{{Lackadaisy}}''. At least, until Mordecai found a better job and [[KneeCapping shot Viktor in his good knee]] on the way out. Having a murderer for a partner carries a certain degree of risk.
25	* Rayne and Noel of ''Webcomic/LeastICouldDo'' [[http://www.leasticoulddo.com/comic/20080222 confirm this status themselves]].
26	* ''Webcomic/MandatoryRollerCoaster'' infrequently features two unnamed men who are always drinking at a bar together.
27	* ''Webcomic/MegaTokyo'': Piro and Largo, and Kimiko and Erika. All are canonically straight, but each pair lives together, and have done so at least since college.
28	* ''Webcomic/MenageA3'' has Maura and Tess, two former school friends who competed together as synchronized swimmers, switched to become a wrestling tag team, and share an apartment. Their friendship is strong enough to survive a little mutual snarking and occasional competition for the same guy, and even when they fight, seemingly seriously, [[http://www.ma3comic.com/strips-ma3/very-considerate they can't stay angry for long.]]
29	* Roy and Durkon of ''Webcomic/TheOrderOfTheStick'' are probably the closest members (in terms of friendship at least) of the Order. Their backstory comic reveals that the two became friends over two years before the Order was founded after Roy refused to kill a group of Evil-aligned orcs for XP because they technically weren't doing anything wrong. This attitude impressed Durkon, and they were friends ever since. [[spoiler:When Durkon is temporarily killed, the news of his death hits Roy the hardest out of everyone, and he almost crosses the DespairEventHorizon before ''Belkar'' manages to snap him out of it.]]
30	%%* Brent and Cole of ''Webcomic/PvP''. Also Robby and Jase, the strip's TwoGamersOnACouch. Lampshaded in [[http://www.pvponline.com/2008/08/08/birds-of-a-feather/ this strip]].
31	* ''Webcomic/{{Sakana}}'': [[LoserProtagonist Jiro]] and [[FunPersonified Taisei]] have been best friends since middle school, and they are practically inseparable, go shopping together and share an apartment, and after Jiro ''finally'' goes on a date with [[NoNameGiven cashier girl]], Taisei can't stop worrying about him getting hurt, and so he [[DatePeepers stalks their date]]. The artist also [[WordOfGod stated]] that Shigeru and Taro are "bros for life", and it shows.
32	* The main character 9 and his best friend Chuckles, in ''Webcomic/SeriousEmotionalDisturbances''. Lampshaded at one point during a reunion scene with a Celine Dion song being played as the two run towards each other. So much so that the town of Bumfuck (where they live), including 9's evil Gramma, assumes the two are gay for each other.
33	* Torg and Riff from ''Webcomic/SluggyFreelance''. Though even after being best friends for decades, they're still not that comfortable with hugs. Zoe and Gwynn too, for that matter.
34	* ''Webcomic/{{Terinu}}'' and Matt. They spent half their young lives together as the abused slaves as a pirate warlord, with Matt stealing food to keep Teri healthy and at one point he cuddled in bed with him after Terinu's powers were traumatically activated. WordofGod has stated "Both of them would rather be dead than see the other hurt."
35	* Lero-Ro and Quant from ''Webcomic/TowerOfGod''.
36	--> '''Yu Hansung:''' Since Ro has left, I guess I should fire you, too. Since you two are a set menu, like a hamburger and a cola. It would be inhumane to separate the two of you. I hope you continue your beautiful love forever and ever.
37	* Levana and Laura from ''Webcomic/VampireGirl''. For the longest time, Laura was the only real friend Levana had when she was a vampire, and even long after she became a mortal, Laura continues to be particularly supportive of Levana, even getting rather miffed when Levana disappears and nobody seems to be too overly concerned for her wellbeing.
38	* Ben and Alex from ''Webcomic/WeakHero''. The two have been inseparable friends since childhood, and hurting or insulting one of them is the one surefire way to piss the other off. Gerard teases them about it in their first meeting, saying the two look good together.
