"She had studied the universe all her life, but had overlooked its clearest message: For small creatures such as we, the vastness is bearable only through love." Carl Sagan
Valentine's Day may still be a few months away, but love is in the air at Just About EVE. While EVE's universe is full of horror and warring dystopian factions, love - like a desert rose - can blossom in the most unlikely of places. We want to hear real stories of love in New Eden. Tell us: what’s the most romantic thing you’ve ever heard happen in EVE?
This is not a fan fiction bounty. Although at time of publication, our horror fan fiction bounty is still open if that's more your jam. For this bounty, two types of story are valid:
True stories of romance between players. Many couples have met in EVE, some even have kids that now play EVE. Others have even had their marriages conducted by the Space Pope at Fanfest. If that's you, or you know one of these stories, share it with us.
Roleplayed romances between characters. As we've said before, EVE fills a space in-between fiction and non-fiction. We'd argue that if someone can write a history book about the empires, then the stories of love between pilots feel real enough too. If you know of touching love stories between characters, share them with us.
