Alice and Bob are siblings. So are Charlie and Dana. Alice marries Charlie, while Bob falls in love with Dana. In other words, it's any time one pair of siblings marry another pair of siblings. Someone marries the sibling of their own sibling's spouse. (The gender configurations can vary.) A quick way to achieve Weddings for Everyone. Or if the weddings don't take place at roughly the same time, the first wedding provided the ideal opportunity for the second couple to get to know each other. Another variant, popular in the Romance Novel, is that the first couple dies, leaving a child, and the second couple meet, argue, and finally marry because of their dispute over custody. This can lead to a major Tangled Family Tree as the children of one couple are "double cousins" to the children of the other. They are as genetically twice as similar as most cousins, sharing 1/4 of their genes rather than the usual 1/8. Kissing Cousins is even more discouraged in such cases. This gets ramped up in cases where identical twins are involved. Can also overlap with Retroactive Stepsibling Relationship. A popular way to resolve a Sibling Triangle. Compare Best Friends-in-Law, which only involves three people. Not to be confused with Settle for Sibling, although overlap is certainly not impossible. Not at all the same as Brother–Sister Incest, where someone marries their own sibling. See also, however, Incest Standards Are Relative, as some cultural contexts might well consider marrying or dating an in-law to be incestuous. |

Emma: Brothers John and George Knightley marry sisters Isabella and Emma Woodhouse. As in Sense and Sensibility, the heroine's marriage takes place at the end, while her sibling's marriage took place before the start of the book, so Emma and her Mr. Knightley have been Like Brother and Sister all her life. | |

Cousins Touka and Nayuta Satomi in Magia Record: Puella Magi Madoka Magica Side Story turn out to be related this way, although since the frayed brotherly relationship between their fathers is relevant to the plot while their mothers being sisters only comes up in one of Nayuta’s homescreen quotes, it’s easy to miss. | |

The Fire Emblem games have several potential cases: In Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones, the player can pair Prince Ephraim with Princess Tana and Ephraim's twin sister Princess Eirika with Tana's older brother Prince Innes. Also doable in the second generation of Genealogy of the Holy War with, well, any two brother-sister pairs, but notably Arthur with Phee and Ced with Tine. This can also potentially be two pairs of Kissing Cousins if Patty is with Lester and Febail with Lana. Even more in the case of the last two couples together; their mothers Edain and Briggid were identical twin sisters, so this involves marrying two pairs of genetic half-siblings to each other. Can be done in many varieties in Fire Emblem: Awakening with the second generation, all involving Lucina, Chrom!Inigo or Chrom!Brady and a family consisting the male Avatar and a woman who has a son. (For example, Avatar!Gerome can marry Lucina and his younger sister Morgan goes for Chrom!Inigo or Chrom!Brady, or Avatar!Inigo can marry Lucina and Morgan marries Chrom!Brady. Add Owain to the mix and things can get even zanier.) In the DLC route of Fire Emblem Fates, it's possible to do up to a quadruple version of this trope by getting the Nohr and Hoshido royal families to marry each other. There are four possible combinations: the first would have Elder Princes and Elder Princesses (Ryoma/Camilla and Xander/Hinoka) plus Younger Princes and Younger Princesses (Takumi/Elise and Leo/Sakura), the second has Elder Princes and Younger Princesses (Xander/Sakura and Ryoma/Elise) plus Elder Princesses and Younger Princes (Takumi/Camilla and Leo/Hinoka), and the other two have one Elder Prince with an Elder Princess and the other with a Younger Princess while the Younger Princes reverse which is paired with Elder and which with Younger (Xander/Hinoka, Ryoma/Elise, Leo/Sakura, and Takumi/Camilla or Xander/Sakura, Ryoma/Camilla, Leo/Hinoka, and Takumi/Elise). Plus there are even more variations where only two or three of the siblings marry each other. For a Birthright only example, one could marry Hinoka and Sakura to ninja brothers Kaze and Saizo (then marry their children Asugi and Midori to each other). And of course, there's the possibility to pull this off with the second generation. If Azura marries a man who produces a daughter, and the female Avatar does the same, then Azura's son Shigure can marry the Avatar's daughter, and the Avatar's son Kana can marry Azura's daughter. For bonus points Kissing Cousins comes into play: the Avatar and Azura are cousins, meaning their children are second cousins to each other. Conquest and Revelation have a Double Subverted example: the Male Avatar can marry Flora and either Xander or Leo can marry her sister Felicia. Subverted in that the Avatar is not blood-related to Xander and Leo. Double subverted in that the Avatar only learned this recently, and certainly still regards Xander and Leo as his brothers. The same Avatar/Flora pairing can also create a straighter version in Revelation, as Ryoma and Takumi are also recruitable here and can be paired with Felicia. "Straighter" in that it's only a single subversion, as Ryoma and Takumi aren't blood relatives of the Avatar either. However, this time the Avatar doesn't know that. Birthright also has a subverted example if the Female Avatar replaces one of the women in the above-mentioned ninja example for the same reason it's subverted with a Ryoma/Takumi example. |

Roseanne: Darlene and Becky Conner married David and Mark Healy, respectively. Or the other way around, according to the finale. The characters had a lot of fun joking about David and Darlene's relationship after they essentially adopted him as a member of the family long before Becky got married. It's to the point that, when Darlene and David get engaged, Roseanne celebrates the fact that they are officially the most redneck white trash in town. |

Planned in Homestuck: According to their destiny, Rose must marry John while her twin Dave must marry John's twin Jade. Whether this will actually come to pass, or whether they will fight fate remains to be seen, particularly since Rose is already in a relationship with Kanaya. Note that "fate" here means "teenage alien with a shipping grid", and the only reason he's bothering is that the kids are the last surviving humans except for alternate-universe teenage versions of their parents. | |

Tolkien's Legendarium: This shows up several times in The Silmarillion and The Lord of the Rings. Sam's sister Marigold Gamgee married Rose's brother Tolman Cotton. Galdor, heir to the house of Hador, and his sister Gloredhel marry Hareth of the Haladin and her brother Haldir. Galdor and Hareth's sons Húrin and Huor marry first cousins Morwen and RÃan. Siblings Éomer and Éowyn of Rohan marry first cousins LothÃriel of Dol Amroth and Faramir of Gondor. Bilbo's father (Bungo Baggins) and his first cousin Rosa married siblings Belladonna and Hildigrim Took. (Bilbo's and Frodo's fathers were first cousins once removed, and their mothers were aunt and niece—look through the family trees at the end of The Lord of the Rings and you can find endless cases of people marrying their in-laws as well as Kissing Cousins.) |

In the DLC route of Fire Emblem Fates, it's possible to do up to a quadruple version of this trope by getting the Nohr and Hoshido royal families to marry each other. There are four possible combinations: the first would have Elder Princes and Elder Princesses (Ryoma/Camilla and Xander/Hinoka) plus Younger Princes and Younger Princesses (Takumi/Elise and Leo/Sakura), the second has Elder Princes and Younger Princesses (Xander/Sakura and Ryoma/Elise) plus Elder Princesses and Younger Princes (Takumi/Camilla and Leo/Hinoka), and the other two have one Elder Prince with an Elder Princess and the other with a Younger Princess while the Younger Princes reverse which is paired with Elder and which with Younger (Xander/Hinoka, Ryoma/Elise, Leo/Sakura, and Takumi/Camilla or Xander/Sakura, Ryoma/Camilla, Leo/Hinoka, and Takumi/Elise). Plus there are even more variations where only two or three of the siblings marry each other. For a Birthright only example, one could marry Hinoka and Sakura to ninja brothers Kaze and Saizo (then marry their children Asugi and Midori to each other). And of course, there's the possibility to pull this off with the second generation. If Azura marries a man who produces a daughter, and the female Avatar does the same, then Azura's son Shigure can marry the Avatar's daughter, and the Avatar's son Kana can marry Azura's daughter. For bonus points Kissing Cousins comes into play: the Avatar and Azura are cousins, meaning their children are second cousins to each other. Conquest and Revelation have a Double Subverted example: the Male Avatar can marry Flora and either Xander or Leo can marry her sister Felicia. Subverted in that the Avatar is not blood-related to Xander and Leo. Double subverted in that the Avatar only learned this recently, and certainly still regards Xander and Leo as his brothers. The same Avatar/Flora pairing can also create a straighter version in Revelation, as Ryoma and Takumi are also recruitable here and can be paired with Felicia. "Straighter" in that it's only a single subversion, as Ryoma and Takumi aren't blood relatives of the Avatar either. However, this time the Avatar doesn't know that. Birthright also has a subverted example if the Female Avatar replaces one of the women in the above-mentioned ninja example for the same reason it's subverted with a Ryoma/Takumi example. | |

A Brother's Price has this trope seen as very positive since it means closer bonds between families and makes cousins more like sisters. When Cullen is married to the older Whistler sisters, he hopes to get their cousin married to his sisters. | |

Disney Ducks Comic Universe: Don Rosa once stated in an interview that he sees Mr. Duck (Huey, Dewey and Louie's father) as Daisy's brother, and that Daisy is really the boys' aunt. Their mother, Della Duck, is Donald's sister. Donald and Daisy are, of course, dating. The canonicity of this statement is dubious, however. | |

Although it's only part of the act that they keep up to appear human, the Cullen/Hale "kids" appear as this to outsiders in the novel Twilight. Alice Cullen is with Jasper Hale while her "brother" Emmett Cullen is with Jasper's "sister" Rosalie Hale. It's implied that the family puts on some variety of this trope whenever they all move to a new location together and that Bella and Edward will be folded into the deception now that they're together and both vampires. | |

The Clothar race in Traveller always has these. Clothar are born as a brother-sister pair of mindlinked twins, and each pair marries another pair, creating what amounts to a quadruple marriage rather then a dual marriage. As each pair is telepathic, effectively everyone knows everything about the others' marriage. | |

Mansfield Park: Mrs. Grant plans for her brother and sister Henry and Mary Crawford to marry siblings Julia and Tom Bertram. They both blow it, starting by flirting with the other two Bertrams Maria and Edmund. Note to Shippers On Deck: Make sure the sides are balanced before attempting this trope. Ironically, at least 2 Fan Sequels — Susan Price and Mansfield Revisited — invoke this trope by marrying Fanny's sister Susan Price to Edmund's brother Tom Bertram | |

Mentioned in an aside in To Kill a Mockingbird, although not actually featured. Atticus mentions the concept of double cousins, saying "two brothers married two sisters." The pair of young friends Scout and Dill work on figuring it out, and reason that if Dill had a sister whom he married, and Scout and her brother got married, their kids would be double cousins.

A Song of Ice and Fire: At the very beginning, best friends King Robert and Ned Stark intend to do this. They had already betrothed Sansa and Joffrey, while Robb and Arya escorted Myrcella and Tommen to dinner, with the implication that they were trying to set them up. Catelyn Stark makes a contract with Walder Frey for Robb and Arya to marry two Frey siblings. According to The World of Ice & Fire, siblings Daeron II and Daenerys Targaryen (Queen Daenerys' namesake) were wedded to a pair of siblings from House Martell: Myriah and Maron, respectively. Jacaerys and Lucerys Velaryon, sons of Rhaenyra Targaryen, were betrothed to Baela and Rhaena Targaryen, daughters of Rhaenyra's second husband, Daemon. However, both boys died during the Dance of the Dragons, and Baela and Rhaena ended up marrying different people after the war. |

A rabbinic legend says that The Bible's Laban intended to marry his two daughters to their two male cousins—the older two, Leah and Esau, would be one couple and Jacob and Rachel would be the other. Averted because Leah prayed to God that she wouldn't have to marry the wicked Esau, and He arranged for both sisters to marry Jacob instead. | |

Spider-Man: This is sometimes the origin for Peter Parker's Aunt May and Uncle Ben's relationship with his parents. Originally, Uncle Ben was just Richard Parker's considerably older brother, and Aunt May and Mary Fitzpatrick-Parker were unrelated, but some recent versions have the women as sisters as well. This is specifically hinted at in Ultimate Spider-Man, where Aunt May refers to her sister's death and calls Peter her sister's responsibility during a fight. In the regular continuity, however, it's often noted that this is not the case, and Aunt May (Reilly, not Fitzpatrick) and Peter Parker are not related by blood at all, making her selfless love and doting nature all the sweeter. |

Nirvana in Fire: A really strange example in that Jingrui is adopted by both the Xies and the Zhuos so they are in a sense in-laws through him. Then his little sister (from the Xies) and his older brother (from the Zhuos) get married so they are double-in-laws. Jingrui laughingly notes that when his sister has her baby he'll be both a paternal and maternal uncle. Grand Princess Jinyan married Lin Xie while Jinyan's brother the Emperor married Lin Xie's sister Lin Yueyao; this causes Prince Qi and Lin Shu to be "double cousins". Because Consort Jing is Lin Xie's adopted sister, Prince Jing and Lin Shu are also considered "double cousins". This goes a long way in contributing to Everyone Is Related. |

In the Safehold Zhan and Zhanayt (Cayleb's younger siblings) end up marrying Nahrmahn and Mahrya (the children of Nahrmahn Sr). The betrothal of Zhan and Mahrya was an Arranged Marriage (which became a Perfectly Arranged Marriage) to tie Emerald into the Charisian Empire while the marriage of Nahrmahn and Zhanayt was a case of them falling in love. | |

It doesn't come up in her own books, but Laura Ingalls Wilder's parents were the second of three marriages between their families: Uncle Henry was Ma's brother and his wife, Aunt Polly, was Pa's sister, while Aunt Eliza was Ma's sister and Uncle Peter was Pa's brother. | |

First Lensman Virgil Samms and his cousin George Olmstead are (allegedly) remarkably similar in appearance because of a two-generation stack of this phenomenon. Supposedly, "quadruple first cousins" is the closest the genealogists could come to computing what had actually happened. (Notably, their parents were not only a pair of brothers and a pair of sisters ... they're a pair of identical twin brothers and a similar pair of sisters who ALSO happen to be first cousins with each other.) | |

Can be done in many varieties in Fire Emblem: Awakening with the second generation, all involving Lucina, Chrom!Inigo or Chrom!Brady and a family consisting the male Avatar and a woman who has a son. (For example, Avatar!Gerome can marry Lucina and his younger sister Morgan goes for Chrom!Inigo or Chrom!Brady, or Avatar!Inigo can marry Lucina and Morgan marries Chrom!Brady. Add Owain to the mix and things can get even zanier.) | |

A possible marriage outcome in Long Live the Queen. If Elodie has shown interest in Brin, Duchess of Hellas who is a lesbian by preference, she suggests that they can be together if Brin marries Elodie's father and Elodie marries Brin's brother.

This would have happened in Gone with the Wind if brother and sister Charles and Melanie Hamilton had married their cousins Honey and Ashley Wilkes, respectively, as had long been planned, in keeping with the family tradition of the Wilkes and Hamilton clans intermarrying. However, Scarlett O'Hara decided to interfere, and in a failed attempt at getting Ashley for herself or at least making him jealous, she ended up married to Charles. | |

Narrowly avoided in Voltes V. Concept art shows that Katherine was to have a little sister named Marlene, who would fall in love with Kenichi after defecting from the Boazanian's side. Katherine also has a crush on Heinel. Given The Reveal later that Heinel and Kenichi are paternal half-brothers and that Kentaro Go and Prince Gohl are the same person, this trope would have been fulfilled had Marlene not been cut out in the final version. | |

Bilbo's father (Bungo Baggins) and his first cousin Rosa married siblings Belladonna and Hildigrim Took. (Bilbo's and Frodo's fathers were first cousins once removed, and their mothers were aunt and niece—look through the family trees at the end of The Lord of the Rings and you can find endless cases of people marrying their in-laws as well as Kissing Cousins.) | |
