Positron and Numina Are Now an Item?

I've heard rumors on the global channels that on the new SF in I20, Positron and Numina are now said to be a couple - is that true?
And if it is, is it just hinted at, or is it all out hawt power-armored-scientist-on-departed-spirit action?

I haven't run it, but I can say that that doesn't even begin to make sense.

Guess the devs figgered folks we bored with Snaptooth, and need another PvP event for next V-Day? Around this time next year, expect new content where Scirocco and Ghost Widow finally get together. And the year after that, it can be Tyrant and Dominatrix.

Sounds like a pretty wild misinterpretation of the actual events that occur in the SF. I've only run it once but based on the text in the wiki article there's nothing that even remotely suggests this.

I just ran the SF last night, and it's not flat out said. It's possible that it's vaguely hinted at. But I think it's just as easily interpreted that they are close friends and supergroup-mates. Just because one's a man and the other's a woman automatically creates sexual tension in people's minds.

I doubt it, GG. Namely because Numina might be a spirit and her husband might be an oracular skull, but they are both still married to my understanding.

Maybe it's something like this.

EDIT: Oops, posted just as that info was posted above me

It seems like there's something going on then with those two - so the Freedom Phalanx are slowly getting paired off, either with each other, like Sister Psyche and Manticore, or with outsiders, like Satesnman and Recluse.

For the next live chat on UStream, we need to ask them about this - NPC relationships are a vital part of the game

Of course, for Diabolique, being a Praetorian means that either would be totally ok.

Synapse/Positron - Heterosexual Life Partners... for life!

(Everything else is just a cruel trick, a cruel trick indeed.)

I could see Posi going for Doc Delilah too except for the fact they are in totally different fields and given that Doc isn't an active super hero these days, the chances of them interacting now are slim and none.

Me, I think Doc would definitely be interested in Statesman ... not because of his power, but because he's a link to living history. He was an adolescent in the last half of the 19th Century, fought in World War I, was there at the dawn of the new super hero age, participated in World War II AND was a leader in the First Rikti War.

For someone as interested in history as Doc is, that'd make him nigh irresistable.

I think Statesman WOULD be able to look beyond Doc's obvious assets, but I'm not sure if she's his type otherwise.

However, I doubt Doc Delilah could put up with Nemesis' sexist, male chauvinist attitudes for very long.

People seem to forget that love doesn't instantly mean an item. People can love each other as friends, people can 'love' their boss, their job, whatever is liked so much it's like an emotional A++.

I'm sure the same goes for the Phalanx; they've all been through some pretty harrowing stuff, time in and time out. I'm pretty sure Posi wouldn't want to see a close friend die (again(?)))

Either that, or they may yet be another couple in the pipe....*sigh* Because stuff out of the blue is so in this season... /eyeroll
