Kairos had a great idea, so I'm stealing it.

I read perpetual's awesome post about her favorite moms and dads in fiction, and I had to make my own.

I'm still annoyed I forgot Amy and Rory. I'd edit them into my list except that now you've got them covered. For me, the moment that makes it is when they're reunited right after Melody's birth, especially with Rory wearing everyone's favorite outfit. And River's explanation that they did get to raise her in a way, because they loved their crazy friend and took care of her back when they were all teenagers.

For Mr. and Mrs. Incredible, I always think of the scene where they're navigating the runaway vehicle and bickering about directions.

Sig and Izumi are a great choice too. Tenzin and Pema didn't end up making the list, though? Not even the honorable mentions?

Another fantastic parents list! Bob and Helen, yes. Also Sig and Izumi! I'd nearly forgotten about them, but I love the way they've stuck together through all the shit life's thrown at them.

I wouldn't have thought of the Malfoys, but they did pick their son over Voldemort which is amazing. Not easy to defy the serpent-nostriled one when you've been following him all your life. I must check out this fan art.

I probably never would have thought of the Malfoys either if not for that fan art. Makani is fantastic.

Amy and Rory rock! Love how much they love each other.

Yeah, they're definitely my favorite Doctor Who characters.
