Let the lion and the lamb,
Let the owl and wolf and ram embrace
Across the countryside.

To bless this boy and bless this bride."

"She really is very dog-like. In Star Trek, Captain Kirk would travel to new star systems and meet independently evolved women who were more human-compatible than this person who evolved on my home planet. She's also smart, nice, brave, and accepts me the way I am. Even if things don't go past a certain point physically, she's still someone I'd want to spend my life with and help raise her kids. Captain Kirk never had these problems. On the other hand, Captain Kirk never got this lucky."
Winston, Freefall

"She is a cat," he thought. "That's all she is—a cat!"

Where would he ever find a woman who could compare with her?

Arthur: This failed romance of mine sure was a painful life-lesson. But it did show me one ESSENTIAL TRUTH: talking ducks and Colombian pop stars just ain't meant to be together...

Neolani: "Dad…I've always kind of wondered something, I guess…without realizing it. You look so much different than the rest of us."
Link: "I would say that's true."
Neolani: "So…why did you decide to make our Domain your home? What made you choose to marry Mom instead of a Hylian girl? One that would be more like you?"
Link: "You know, Lani, even for someone like me, not everything has an answer that can easily be rationalized. When you meet the right partner in life, it just…hits you. You tend to stop seeing physical differences, and instead…you just…want to be with them all the time. I've known your mother since I was small enough to fit in her arms, and even up to today…there is no one I've ever met that has moved me more than her. The fact that she's a Zora…just becomes irrelevant."

What you have done is forbidden.

Justin: Why would you be interested in humans? Shouldn't you be attracted to ducks?
The Demonic Duck: Gee, I don't know. Shouldn't you be attracted to women?
Justin: ...Touché.

"A human and a J'naii? Impossible!"
Worf, Star Trek: The Next Generation, "The Outcast"

Worf: You are Romulan.
Ba'el: Tokath is my father. I thought you knew that.
Worf: How could your mother mate with a Romulan?
Ba'el: Why shouldn't she?

"You are turtles! April is human! Your genitalia are not compatible!"

Hitoshi-San: So, how did you become a neko girl?
Raku-Chan: Huh. I was born that way. Y'know? I-I never gained it, I just... I just came with them.
Hitoshi-San: Was your mom a cat and your dad was the... person?
Raku-Chan: No, actually my dad was the cat. [Bizarre laugh]

It all started in the north-west
Hanging at the forest
Got together at some party
Sharp, pointy like a cactus,
Trying hard to act less like he's in puppy love!

Now, he's only got eyes, ears, heart for him
He's thinking,
'This love is gonna last us a long time
'
— Pepper Coyote, "Long Time"

Twilight paused for a second, speechless, then laid a reassuring hoof on Fluttershy's shoulder. "I am glad that you believe me, but I did not need to know that." Fluttershy was about to say something when Twilight added in a serious tone, "I mean it. I've hidden in those bushes. I would really rather not have known that."
"Oh," Fluttershy said, bringing a hoof to her mouth. "Yes, Mister Ferret and Miss Squirrel mentioned that. I didn't realize it was you. You should apologize."
"Apologize," Twilight repeated.
Fluttershy nodded. "It would only be polite. It ruined their entire evening."
"The evening of Mister Ferret," Twilight stated, making sure that she was getting this correct. "And Miss Squirrel?"
"Oh, yes," Fluttershy said, beaming. "They’re a very cute couple."
Twilight was reminded of Luna's earlier comment—though, she wished she hadn't been. "How does that... work?" she said, twisting her face in confusion.
"Very well," Fluttershy answered with honest joy. "The wedding is in June."
Twilight stared at her friend for a moment, trying to detect any hint that she was teasing her, and found none. "Fair enough," she declared.
