Does that sound right? If they're in parallel, shouldn't the positives come off one battery, and the negatives off the other?

When wired in parallel all Positive terminals are at the same point electrically and all Negative terminals are at the same point electrically. It doesn't matter electrically if the leads come off one battery, the other battery, or both batteries. That's why I said in post #2 in this thread "But check to make sure there isn't another chassis ground connected to the other house battery." Since the OP only has two 6 volt batteries connected in series, that is not his case.
