What happens when a journalist who plays City of Heroes with his significant other decides to propose to her?

He does in style (and wearing spandex) in Paragon City of course!

Probably not the way I would handle it, but it sounds it would have been fun to be a part of. And congrats to the couple!

Very sweet, and the comic is kinda corny in a good way, but does CoH have some sort of deal with the Post? Wasn't War Witch interviewed by them a little while back? Can't they get attention from a newspaper that isn't known for the large amounts of typos it makes and the fact that it's a lower price than their competitors and it shows?

Old, but good news. Nice press.

That's damn cool.

The power of Love* triumphs over all.

*Love only works when used in service of Arachnos. Love and all related feelings are trademarks of Arachnos and use by pesky heroes will result in pain in the form of complex wedding rehearsals.


Sidenote: Congrats.

Very good press.

This game has been needing it for a while now.

What a way to get the word out.

Grats to the betrothed and such.

I'm really glad nobody decided to grief this event.

Aww yay. Congrats to the happy couple.

Although, I'm surprised no mention was made of the Manticore/Sister Psyche wedding event anywhere. Probably so as not to overshadow this awesomeness.

That is so awesome, I actually teared up while reading it. Grats to both!

Ever since I found that emote in the Wedding Pack, I've wondered if it ever got used for just such an occassion.
From someone who has seen more than a couple of in-game weddings and considered having their own done (alongside a concurrent offline one of course!)...
Congratulations to the happy couple. Wish you all the best.

One side uses mind police and will "disappear" you and the other uses poison gas and bombs on civilians. Hamidon? He'll just have a tree eat you. Much simpler. If we're all going to be oppressed and/or killed by someone, it might as well be the walking trees. At least they don't speak in annoying code or doublespeak. They just devour you.

Very nice.

Gratz.

I would so say "YES!"

I'm married so... but if my husband had proposed like this I'd be so happy.

I loved it. I could so see my husband doing something like this (if there had been MMOs 24 years ago). Congrats to the happy couple!
