Nope. They are just using each other. Sasha's soulmate is Fox or anybody who is not Kevin. ;)

Faust got tagged. The bird in this one got tagged as "woodland critters":

The words aren't exactly the same, but they're similar enough that I'm pretty sure this was a reference.

(also, Grape is pretty heartless.)

Knowing that Rick is a big Calvin and Hobbes fan (the entire Thematic Arc of Questionable Quality is made of C&H references) it probably was at least inspired by that strip. especially considering the opening dialogue is the same in both.
