I want to pair two different objects at runtime so that picking works like it would if they were in the same container. I don't want to use a container because I don't ALWAYS need that object, and can't delete it without deleting everything else in the container.

You can put the two objects in a Pair family and add an instance variable to this family, like "pairUID", in wich you store the paired object UID: when you pair object A to object B, set A.pairUID to B.UID and B.pairUID to A.UID.

Then, when you need to pick the two objects, just do use two conditions in a single event:
- A condition that pick object A
- B.pairUID = A.UID
