Ever since Grey's Anatomy [1] dropped the tragic news that April (Sarah Drew) and Arizona (Jessica Capshaw) would be leaving by the end of season 14 [2], I've been more tuned in to the unspoken bond between these two ladies. April and Arizona know each other's pains and joys — they're both single mothers, kickass surgeons, and lovely sunrays [3] on their best days. Here's a reel of moments that define their incessantly hilarious, sassy, and supportive friendship. I'll try not to cry too much by focusing on how awesome these two quintessential Grey's characters are.
