As for January, Rose, and Hannibal's massively co-dependant little threesome arrangement... that sort of exists in a fanfiction-like catagory of its own, rivalled only by C.S. Friedman's Coldfire trilogy and a couple of buddy cop shows (and 19th century novels). And it's the only example of that particular you-and-me-against-the-world intense partner thing I've ever encountered that involves more than two people.
That's why they're such a good threesome. Even other examples of little geek-families with more than two people geek-families tend to split the characters into pairs, but you really can't divide up those three, no matter how you try.
