Have their been any examples of this trope NOT being used negatively? I'm just curious as I know a person working on their own series and because of circumstances, it happens, yet both are happily in the relationship, and both involved are rather well adjusted mentally, there's no abuse, or anything really negative. It's treated like a normal relationship. Or am I describing an entirely different trope altogether?

If they're happy in that sort of relationship, it implies that one or both of them is SERIOUSLY messed up... 0_o
I remember one ending to Princess Maker 2 where the Princess gets so attached to the father (the player) that they get married in the end.

shame there's no Real Life - I could name at least three Roman emperors who were overly close to their mothers (Caligula, Nero and Heliogabalus) and while I'd need to look up the referents, I suspect quite a few Egyptian Pharoahs considered this perfectly normal behaviour too. Historical exazmples could be included?

Ragyo as the page image - it seemed to fit, but I wasn't sure if I should do it to avoid spoilers. Good or bad idea?
Chopped from Back to the future re "Like kissing your brother":
- She says that in the film, too. How does she know?
- Maybe it feels like kissing her brother because Marty takes after him, to the point where they have similarly-shaped lips?
- Or, you know, it could just be the fact that "like kissing your brother" is a relatively common saying for kissing someone you have no sexual attraction to. It's like when people react to She Is Not My Girlfriend by saying that the not-girlfriend/boyfriend is like a sibling to them and actually mean it.
