Soulmates in Science Fiction - there are more pairs than one would first
think! Romance is everywhere, amongst the stars, on Earth, and in these
wonderful characters' hearts.
Farscape
Since there semi-erotic meeting during Moya's escape every scene John
and Aeryn have shared is magic! The chemistry between the actors is so
incredible that viewers cheer for them to get together even when they're
conking each other out as in "Throne for a Loss" (Their first meeting did
not go well - Aeryn knocked John out!) The viewers cheer even more
when action does happen like in "The Flax" and the oh-so shippy
perfect "A Human Reaction".
Since their escape, John and Aeryn have faced death, made promises,
fought, kissed, and been thouroughly confused about their relationship.
Aeryn risked her life trying to save John's and in the meantime became
a fugitive from his own race! All because of a lost human who got
(literally) flung through and lost in space.
The "Look At The Princess" 3 parter brought us 2 kisses, one that told
them that they were compatible to have healthy children. "The Locket"
got us an admission of love to each other, but in a strange quirk, neither
one of them remembers it. We cant forget "Mind The Baby", which left them
in a tender embrace that had all shippers sighing. And finally, "Out Of
Their Minds" had them in each others bodies... literally, and not in the
sick way.
However, this couple is currently torn apart through death...(hmmm, I had the
same review here year ago, but this time, they've been through so much
more pain).

Stargate:SG1
Once upon a time, there was an archeologist named Daniel Jackson and a doctor called Janet Frasier. They worked at a top secret Air Force base called the SGC. Although their relationship appears to be purely a professional one, there just seems to be more between them.
Why does Daniel end up so often at the infirmary? Does it have anything to do with a certain doctor Fraiser? Why does Janet seem so worried about Daniel when he iswounded?
The motto of the D&J shipers: "We wouldn't be projecting, if there wasn't a glimmer of something
there already!"
Fans have maintained for years that Daniel and Janet would make a cute couple. In season 5, some of this finally seemed to be true, with bonding, hand holding, and some beautiful moments.

Max and Logan
Dark Angel
The girl with a secret. The man with a secret. Their paths cross in
a somewhat unconventional manner (when she breaks into his house) but from the
very first moment, there's chemistry.
And that's what sets this relationship apart. Sure, it's your typical hero/heroine with an
intriguing adverserial relationship - of course they're going to fall for each other - but
what makes this one special is the spark between them. There's definitely something
intense between Max and Logan, a rare kind of "perfection" even through the trauma
of the dark world they live within.
As things stand, they cannot touch, and the angst and heartbreak is beautiful.
Dana Scully and John Doggett
The X-Files
Basically put, it seems that Doggett cares for Scully a lot more than
Mulder ever did in terms of protection and not putting her in dangerous
positions. And with reports of an interesting chemistry between them,
is it any surprise that M/S shippers are suddenly swapping camps?
Scully's become the scientist/believer while Doggett maintains the no-nonsense
persona.
Time will tell what happens between these two.

Captain Elizabeth Lochley and Captain Matthew Gideon
Crusade
Are 13 short episodes enough to decide if a pair are Soulmates or not?
Many of you seem to think so and they certainly have a passion simmering
between them! It's another "hot couple" of the Net at this point
in time (late 1999).
Gideon and Lochley met in the episode "Ruling From the Tomb," and didn't
exactly hit it off. Gideon wanted to "check up" on Lochley's security
measures. But they ended up having dinner together... and dinner
led to... meeting up again in the next episode, "The Rules of the Game"
where they had dinner again, got fired at, and shared a shower. The only
problem - they went too fast. It can't be over already, can it?
That's
Why We Make Such a Good Team
Micheal and Lisa Wiseman
Now and Again
There are few things sadder to a romantic than when a couple is torn
apart. Especially if it is by death. Micheal and Lisa were
married, in love and they had a daughter. The he is "killed" and
she becomes his widow. In reality his brain is put in the body of
a synthetically created, younger man, created by the government to fight
crime. All he wants is to get back to his wife, the love of his life.
He sees her every time he can, but he can not reveal his true identity
or they will both die. The time they spend together is filled with
tension, love and yearning. It couldn't happen enough and there were
many poignant meetings.
The final episode ended with a promising cliffhanger: Michael
escaped his 'captors', grabbed his wife and daughter, and ran....
Off into the sunset to a happily ever after? That's what we like
to think.
Now and Again
Anakin Skywalker and Queen Amidala
STAR WARS
Ani and Ami are so cute. His first words to the Queen
in disguise, "Are you an angel?", were a hint of things to come, the beginnings
of a beautiful future together that would inevitably end in tragedy.
We know that Anakin and Amidala (Padme) will marry and have two beautiful
children, and after The Phantom Menace, it seems obvious that the
two are already trusted friends. It is a beautiful relationship;
simple, touching and sweet. We can't wait to see it grow.
Star Wars
Colonel Jack O'Neill and Captain Samantha Carter
Stargate: SG1
I guess it was inevitable that an attraction would flare between this
couple. And what a great pair they are! The attraction has simmered between
them for years now, and in a memorable alternate universe, they were engaged.
Protocol keeps them apart but Shippers live in hope. Nonetheless, the brilliant
SG1 team will be together for a long time yet, giving us more wonderful
moments between them. Examples include their alternate universe counterparts,
who are invariably together. Jack, Sam, I think the universe is trying
to tell you something....
Season 4 Update: Woo-hoo! Admission of the attraction...
"I care about her. More than I'm supposed to." And then Jack's
resignation and the kiss!

Frank Parker and Olga Vulkavitch
7 Days
Ah, the fun of a Time Travel show. Olga and Frank can get together
a hundred times (in fact, it seems as if they have!) but Parker always
backsteps and undoes it all. Frank has saved Olga's life dozens of
times in alternate timelines (but, as Olga
pointed out, he has no proof) and has even once proposed to her. Unfortunately,
he was actually married to a psychotic double of Olga. But many shippers
were happy to see their wedding, regardless of the circumstances.
(Much like the marriage of Tom
Paris and B'Elanna Torres.)
The cool scientiest, the slightly nutty but talented hero. It's
your typical working partners/UST thing that works so well and we love
watching it! There was an attraction between them from the very start,
and we're just hanging out for an episode where they get together, for
real, and Olga remembers it.
This relationship truly makes "7 Days" sparkle.

Devon Adair and John Danziger
Earth 2
One of the greatest incidences of unrequited love of all time.
He was the only one who dared to challenge the great Ms. Adair, and to
everyone's surprise, Devon eventually learnt to listen to him. They
became awkward comrades, sharing so much, until they developed a true friendship
which always contained hints of more.
They were perfect for each other, if only they would realise it...
Just watch "Water" and "Brave New Pacifica" if you don't believe me!
(They should have kissed on that beach in BNP. And the whole "Promise
me, John" scene in All About Eve is just heartbreaking.)
Yet as we all know, Devon got frozen, and that was that. Nonetheless,
you can still get a Devon-Danziger fix by visiting the Devon
and Danziger Forever! Webpage.

Dureena Nafeel and Galen
Crusade
The chemistry between these two is striking. Dureena is a thief,
the last of her race. Her displays of bravado often hide her intense
loneliness. She trusts few others, and is incredibly self-reliant.
Galen is a technomage. He was expelled from the
order and is considered a renegade by many of his fellow mages. Galen
is secretive and distant. Many of Excalibur's crew distrust him.
Galen and Dureena form an uneasy friendship. From the very beginning,
the chemistry between them was electric. In many ways, they are very
similar. Both have lost loved ones in the past, and both are fairly
isolated from those around them. Additionally, Dureena is the only
person who seems unafraid of Galen.
It's a pity that Crusade did not continue, because this relationship
could have been very interesting to watch.

the Thief * The
Circle: A Tribute to Galen
Jarod and Miss Parker
The Pretender
Jarod was raised in The Centre, a shady research lab determined to
manipulate his genius for their own ends. Isolated from the outside
world, the boy was befriended by Miss Parker(the audience has never learned
her first name,although Jarod knows it), the daughter of the Centre's director.
Flash forward 33 years. Jarod escapes the Centre. Eager to retrieve
their 'experiment', the Centre sends someone after him--Miss Parker.
This relationship is interesting because both characters are pitted
directly against each other in a no-win situation. In her own way,
Parker is just as much a prisoner as Jarod was. Jarod's repeated
attempts to reach out to the woman he remembers as his friend fuel much
of the conflict between them. For the most part, Parker refuses
to acknowledge the Centre's misdeeds,
for fear of losing the only family she has ever known.
So, Jarod and Miss Parker remain in a holding pattern. However,
this has begun to change a bit as the fourth season continued, until the
terrible news of cancellation....(which is unfortunately,
the final stake in many beautiful relationships). But hey, the wonderful
TNT promised Pretender movies! Yeah!

Galaxy Quest
There was romantic tension between the characters of these two actors
back during the run of their series, Galaxy Quest. Then eighteen
years later, an attraction still existed between the actors. It realized
after an adventure through space where they kicked some alien butt-for
real! Then they kissed in front of the audience and there is no doubt
they'll be a hot couple for Galaxy Quest shippers in the second series.
[Galaxy Quest rocked. And in a world where
it was "real" I'm sure there would be a thousand die-hard shippers who
believed in this pair, just like we saw in the film.]
Galaxy Quest
Marita Covarrubias and Alex Krycek
The X-Files
Krycek and Marita are made for each other.....they're both RATS. They'll
do anything to gain an advantage over their opponent and in this case,
it's each other. Although they were together for that one moment because
of some rather
unromantic reasons, I truly believe that if things were different,
they still would've found each other.
No, there were not any special circumstances in which Covarrubias and
Krycek were under when they kissed. It
was actually them, in this timeline and universe, and they still retained
memory of the event. Covarrubias was trying to trick Krycek though and
he fell for it...and her.

Susan Ivanova and Marcus Cole (RIP)
Babylon 5
Susan. Marcus. A match in the stars as a war raged about them
- could she let go of her past? "Myy hearrt and I don't speak anymore."
And could he ever tell her the truth?
Marcus was in love with her, and told her as best he could - "You are
the most beautiful woman....". The roses scene in "Exogenesis" was
priceless. However, these are a pair of soulmates doomed for all time.
It all ended in tragedy. We will never, ever forget "I love you".
Nor will we forget Susan's pain afterward in one of Babylon 5's
best scenes ever...a broken soul which was never to heal.
Visit Unicorn's

Luke Skywalker and Mara Jade
STAR WARS
Sure she wanted to kill him at first. Sure she was the Emperor's Hand.
But in the forest of Mynkr, Luke set her down the path of becoming a Jedi.
For ten years, they meet now and then. Their friendship grows, but always
seems a little strained. Luke has other women (Ugh. Callista, anyone?)
and Mara has other men (Lando, but not really). In Spectre of the Past,
they realize what a great team they make. And in the book
Vision of
the Future, he proposes, and she accepts. Mara even says that they
are two halves that make a whole. That's what the fans have been saying
all along!
The wonderful comic book series "Union" showed us their wedding.
Mindlinked through the Force...they can no longer deny the truth that
they are soulmates. Now Mara hovers near death and fans everywhere are
hoping for her salvation.

Nathan West and Kylen Celina
Space : Above and Beyond
This relationship seemed a true tragedy. The two young astronauts on
the brink of a great adventure were cruelly torn apart by both bureaucracy
and then the alien terror known as the Chigs. The series was based on Nathan's
efforts to find his one true love - which he finally did in the final episode.
Their reunion was so touching, and so tragic, because of what they had
lost in the process, their innocence and their friends.

Princess Leia and Han Solo
STAR WARS
The princess and the pirate. Was there ever are more romantic, perfect
match? In a galaxy at war, two heroes from vastly different worlds finally
found each other. Through the trials of darkness and the initial 'triangle'
of friends, Han and Leia proved that true love would win through. And this
is one couple that have (mostly) had their "happily ever after". Three
children, wonderful friends, and a galaxy they saved.

Bess Martin and Morgan Martin
Earth 2
In the cynical universe of the twenty-second century, Bess and Morgan
managed to find each other and true love. They perfectly exemplify the
trials of marriage, and how anything can be overcome together.
Who could ever forget the wedding during "Church of Morgan"? Or the
devotion Morgan showed to Bess during "Flower Child"? The scene of
Bess and Morgan plunging into the Pit of Spring together is an unforgettable
moment.

Daniel Jackson and Sha're
Stargate (SG1)
On the first mission to Abydos, Sha're was "given" to Daniel as a gift. Of course he refused to take advantage of her...but they ended up falling in love, and at the end of the mission he chose to stay behind and marry her. A year later, however, she was kidnapped by the Goa'uld and made into a host. Daniel embarked on a three-year quest to find and free her, which sadly ended in her death. Since then, he's gone through life alone. Sha're may be dead, but she still lives on in Daniel's heart--and in the hearts of Daniel/Sha're fans.

Lois Lane and Clark Kent
Lois and Clark - The New Adventures of Superman
There are a multitude of sites devoted to this pair - in fact, the
whole television series was focussed on their relationship! Needless to
say, there could never be anyone for Clark Kent but Lois Lane, and vice
versa. From their first beginnings at The Daily Planet to their
second (and real!) wedding, this is one relationship where fans were not
disappointed.

Quinn Mallory and Wade Welles
Sliders
Wade and Quinn were meant to be. They make such a cute couple! Time
and time again they relied upon each other, and they loved each other.
It was alluded to so many times (remember the episode with the dinosaurs?)
Unfortunately, Maggie came along. Then Wade left. (There was anguish
in his eyes when Quinn realised that he'd lost her....) Then
Quinn got royally screwed up. I'm not even sure where/what he is now.
So my advice is to whack some first season episodes into the VCR (like
"Last Days") and watch the romance to your heart's content. Remember
the good days of the original Sliders. Remember the fun. Remember the romance.
And tell yourself that somewhere, versions of Wade and Quinn are still
sliding together.

Captain Nathan Hale Bridger and Dr. Kristen Westphalen
seaQuest DSV
Remember the days...of the first season of seaQuest...with believable
storylines and realistic characters? Bridger and Westphalen were two of
these, peace-loving scientists who managed to find each other on Earth's
greatest submarine. In the final episode of the first series, "Ocean of
Fire", Bridger was able to put the loss of his wife behind him and act
on the mutual attraction. Unfortunately, Lucas interrupted them at a most
awkward moment!
We never learnt of Dr. Westphalen's fate after she left the seaQuest,
although we can believe that she's out there, writing letters to Bridger
and denying that "seaQuest 2032" ever happened!

Zack Allan and Lyta Alexander
Babylon 5
These two weren't Soulmates but they could have been. Zack had
a crush on Lyta for years and he was the only one who tried to say goodbye
when she left, even though she had become dark and twisted. Their
one-sided conversation in the lift during "Thirdspace" is one of Babylon
5's classic scenes. If only Lyta had realised he was there for
her, then maybe she could have escaped the madness.... He was always
there for her, but she fell for Byron and in the end, they were both alone.

Shane Vansen and Cooper Hawkes
Space : Above and Beyond
People have been suggesting this relationship for years and I refused
to put it on the page - mainly because I didn't see it. I haven't
watched S:AAB in the longest time but it will always have a special place
in my heart. And so I now include these two, as something to think
about more than anything else. Hawke had a crush on Vansen from the
start, yet as time progressed they became good friends, along with the
rest of the 58th.

Neo and Trinity
The Matrix
Even if you don't have a leather fetish or a desire to see and ice
cold femme fatale-esque character melt in order to save her beloved you
have to like this pair! Though the movie is better rembered for it's
action sequences and religous undertones the romance of Neo and Trinity
helped it fly, especially their scenes of interaction which were sweet,
lovable and filled with romantic overtones.
Another plus (spoiler) is that you know how crazy about him
she is and you are cheering for something to happen the whole time.
Sure there were only two brief kisses and only one really counted,
but there will be sequels and not picking up this story line would be like
not wishing your best friend good luck on their wedding day!.

Alonzo Solace and Dr. Julia Heller
Earth 2
Alonzo and Julia - two radically different people drawn together in
circumstances far beyond their control. From awkward beginnings, they learnt
a new way of life on a planet far from Earth, an incredible place where
each found their true love. Their first meeting was less than auspicious
- Julia rejected his blatant advances - bbbut soon she was caring for him
in a professional sense. A lingering attraction remained, and blossomed
when Julia was high on Terrian DNA. After many awkward setbacks they
finally put the past behind them and realised that they reached out to
each other - in love.
A beautiful picture of them.

Michael Garibaldi and Lise Hampton
Babylon 5
This beautiful relationship is often overlooked by Babylon 5
fans. Perhaps it is because Lise was not a "main" character, but
she was there from the start for Michael, and kept coming back into his
life. Through her marriages and his addiction to alcohol, the universe
kept bringing them together. (Garibaldi never had anyone else
his entire time on Babylon 5!)
To the delight of everyone, Michael and Lise finally married, shared
ownership of Mars's most successful corporation, and had a beautiful daughter.
Now that's romance of a lifelong kind.

says if it's not complicated then they probably aren't soulmates!
They are destiny waiting to happen.

Neither wanted anything to do with each other until the day Michael
stole her car and 'abducted' her. Their continual bickering gave way when
both realised that they had common dreams about leaving Roswell, Michael
in a spaceship, Maria in a limo. Both realise their feelings, flirt, bicker
and finally kiss. A lot. Michael is still crazy about Maria but doesn't
want her hurt because he's an alien, but when he breaks up with her the
look on his face is clear, he doesn't want to do it.
Constant bickering continues but it is clear that despite their claims
that it was just lust both are always there for each other and things could
happen if only Michael would just stop thinking about mud!!

Jeffrey Sinclair and Catherine Sakai
Babylon 5
Another overlooked relationship in the B5-Universe, Jeffrey and Catherine
again prove that everyone has a soulmate, whom they will follow throughout
space and time to be with. Onscreen, their relationship was
never a focus but it was ever-present, with Catherine dropping in to hassle
Jeff every so often. However, a greater destiny awaited Sinclair,
first as leader of the Rangers, and then, to become the fabled Valen of
the Minbari, which required his going back in time 1000 years. Permanantly.
The novel To Dream in the City of Sorrows continues Catherine's
own story, revealing that she attempted to follow Jeff back in time after
she realised where he had gone. It has not been said if she succeeded,
but we know that Valen married (hence Delenn being his descendent) and
from this we can infer that those who have Soulmates may also come from
similar genetic backgrounds.
And those of us who are true romantics believe Catherine found Jeff,
sacrificing her entire life in the 24th century for him.
John Steed and Emma Peel

Matt and Cathy
Alien Nation
Matt and Cathy's relationship was realistic and well-developed. Most
of their early scenes focused on their becoming friends and just getting
to understand each other (Matt's insecurities can be very hard to figure
out). The fact that they were from different planets and radically
different cultures (they don't even make love in the same way) was another
huge hurdle. A big step was taken by Matt after George gave birth, when
Matt admitted to Cathy that he liked her. The series ended with their first
kiss, but thanks to the reunion movies five years later, we got to see
these lovebirds consummate their love. True love overcame all of
their difficulties.

Xev is a a genetically engineered love slave and Kia is a 2000+ year
old dead assasin. They had a BIG romance in the "Tales From a Parallel
Universe" movie (Kai saves her life a million times, Zev falls in love
with him, and THE KISS).
In the series the romance is reduced mostly becuase of the fact that
Kai happens to be an animated corpse with almost no
emotions, but Zevs love for him continues and there are some very shippy eps!
Susan Ivanova and Talia Winters
Babylon 5
Ivanova never seemed to have luck in love, and her relationship with Talia
was the first heartbreaking example. What began as animosity (because of
Ivanova's past experience and prejudice) slowly tempered into something
resembling friendship and very subtle love. They spent the night together in
"Divided Loyalties" before the horrific end, where the traitor inside Talia was
revealed and she was taken away and (shudder) dismembered. In a later episode Ivanova told Delenn
that "I think I loved Talia."

Agent K was separated from his true love Elizabeth for 30 years by the mysterious "Men in Black" agency,
which permits no ties to the outside world. All he could do was watch her sometimes from far away. But
when he retired, leaving young Agent J to take his place, he returned to Elizabeth and almost the last
shot in the movie shows them together and happy. The love that outlives separation is the love of soulmates.

is a secret, they remain altogether human, with emotions and vulnerabilities,

From the moment the scruffy orphan with no control over his deadly

'soulmates'. The ultimate X-Couple, Scott and Jean have loved each
other from the beginning. In over thirty years since their debute
in 1963 (!) Scott Summers and his lady love Jean Grey proved that nothing,
not even death itself, could truely separate two people with a bond so
deep they can hear each others thoughts
Through the years, through the pain, through death and rebirth, children,
and vengeful ex-wives, Scott and Jean remained together -- they made their
love, they made their life. There is no other couple in Marvel Comics quite
like them, and though they have been separated by death (Scott was recently
killed in battle with Apocalypse, who was trying to kill their son Nate)
their love for one another will burn on long, long after both their deaths
-- like the immortal flame from the Phoennnix Jean is named for.

After a memorable first meeting (with her inside a spaceship
and him outside on the window) it was pretty obvious Cale had fallen hard
for Akima, and there was more then one suggestion that she felt the same.
There were an an abundance of moments which spoke of cute attraction between
the pair. Neither had any family, being part of the last remnants of the
human race.
The general assumption can be they got together after the Titan was
found. They must have by the scene a year after the events of the rest

Miss Parker and Broots
The Pretender

a very strange fantasy/dream by Broots...
Byron (RIP) and Lyta Alexander
Babylon 5
This was a tragic relationship. Lyta, rogue telepath, found a
kindred soul in Byron who led a group of telepaths searching for a new
homeworld. They fell in love and Byron was the first who led Lyta
within herself, learning the terrible secret of what had been done for
her. A poignant moment came when they, along with the group, sang
together.
Byron sacrificed himself for Lyta and all rogue telepaths, beginning
the "Remember Byron" crusades in an attempt to bring Psy-Corps down.
Ultimately, through the deaths of these two troubled people, they were
successful.
Susan Ivanova and David (?) Corwin
Babylon 5
Susan remained oblivious to all of Corwin's attempts to court her.
She asked him out to discuss business, he thought it was a date.
He gave her roses, she thought they were from Marcus (after an oh-so-cute
scene between them)! Their entire non-relationship consisted of mis-communication,
and when you consider the fact that he was her subordinate, perhaps it's
best that it didn't work out. However, they could have had cute times
together in C&C!

Dot Matrix and Bob
Reboot
An unusual pair of soulmates, Dot Matrix and Bob both live inside
a computer, in Mainframe City. Bob is a Guardian from the Supercomputer
who is hailed as a hero in this small system; Dot is a smart and ambitious,
if slightly workaholic, entrepreneur-turned-rebel leader.
The pair do have their differences---Bob's overconfident nature and
spontaneous hero lifestyle tend to clash with Dot's careful planning---and
just as they began to realize their feelings for each other, Bob was lost
in the Web. Dot was sure he'd been
deleted, but Bob fought his way back to her, and helped defeat the
virus Megabyte and save Mainframe. And Bob and Dot finally kissed...well,
just see this picture. :-) Bob
& Dot...

Fry and Leela
Futurama
Fry's a 20th cenutry delivery boy who fell into a cryo-chamber and woke
up in the year 3000, where he met Leela, the one-eyed alien. She
can get irritated with him but they're friends who would be sure to become
something more if something didn't keep interrupting them every time they
were about to kiss! The "Titanic" episode was priceless.

Reb and Yuna
Deep Water Black/Mission Genesis
Two clones of Earth's best and brightest, traveling to Earth to repopulate
it after the devestation caused by the Pandora Virus. Reb and Yuna
at first clash, but then learn to understand each other, and their romance
was budding (despite an encounter with Reb's donor's girlfriend) when the
series was canceled. Never mind. We can still assume they're
still out there, still heading towards Earth, and still in love with each
other

I admit they may be corny but, their also darned cute! Besides I'd absoluteley

give Disney cavities!
