Out of all the reasons that caused the Primarchs to fall to chaos why didn't one fall because of love?
The idea writes itself, either the primarch falls for a mortal and outlives them and turns to chaos in a desperate effort to fill the hole they left or finds mortals unrelatable in their entirety and turns to a xeno or demon as a life companion.

Slow Cosby didn't exist in the 80s. But you're certainly free to feature that in Your Dudes' chapter/legion.

Pretty sure all english relationships were that until june 13th 1992

Love makes you a big pussy.
Because in the grim darkness of the far future, there is only war.
>>44204245
40k is written for 10-15 year-old boys. A love story is EWWWWW MORE GUNS PLEASE LOL THAT CHICK HAS BEWBY ARMOUR
Only war
>>44204245
because you can only make love or war, and in the grim darkness of the far future there is only war.

The only primarchs that canonically loved mortals are Rowboat, Corax, Russ and Vulkan and they were loyal as fuck.
>>44204245
I think it's mostly because nerds don't ever write good love stories.No, having waifus doesn't make a good love story by default.
>>44205308
Wouldn't need to be a love story, index Astartes could have just said Primarch X was corrupted by attachment to female adviser, like if the lion had fell over luther.
>>44205413
Or have one om the Primarchs being a girl that was loyala to the Emperor but loves Horus more. Bam, solved the entire problem.
>>44205428
Malcador wanted girls but the Emperor wanted a sexless weapon race
>>44205524
Have her grow up a among weak men so that she has a daddy complex with the Emperor and she is attracted to strong men that knows what they want like Horus.
>>44205546
>the Emperor is the absent father that doesn't give her the love she needs
>Horus is the cool big bro that teacher her how to be a successful millitary commander and all sorts of other cool stuff

But isn't lovea battlefield?

Meanwhile, love stories are the height of maturity and good writing. Truly, every story must have one, as Hollywood teaches us.
>>44206551
No, most of them are fucking terrible.
Call me an emotionally dead cynical robot posing as a human being, but shit like Romeo and Juliet is god damned retarded. And for the normal heart-ace stories... just move the fuck on. There's plenty of fish in the sea, and if you're male, the species started out anyway with multiple mates and moving on from them. Monogamy happened later.

Angron loved his gladiator bros and sisters
>>44206574
Actual romantic love fucking hurts, you have this person and they can read you so well they might as well be inside your head most of the time and you come to trust and rely on them as much as your limb. You just don't know what to do when they aren't there anymore.
>>44206574
I won't call you an emotionally dead cynical robot, but I will call you an idiot for not recognising obvious sarcasm.
>>44206612
Never experienced that, so I guess I am a robot. I always feel so disconnected from people it's like I'm from a different species. To me love is simply a hedonistic contract.
"Hey do you like having sex."
"Yes"
"So do I!"
Obviously it's more complicated than that, but that's really what it just boils down to. Casual flings.
Domo arigato mr roboto?
>>44206636
Unless you are physically incapable because of psycopathy you'll probably find one someday Its like a best friend you want to be next to forever even when you are so fucking angry at them you want to stab them in the eyes. The sex thing becomes less important.
>>44204245
>why not desperate efforts to fill a hole
Because not everything is about your sad crotch obsession.
>>44206546
So canlove bloom on love?
>>44206574
>but shit like Romeo and Juliet is god damned retarded
Probably because the entire plot of Romeo and Juliet is that they were retarded teenagers who ruined everything because they couldn't keep it in their pants.
Seriously. The point of the play is to show the destructiveness of young lust mistaken for love. It's not even subtext.
>>44205413
luther was his foster father doe
and i dont think lion is autist because of Luther more like because he is space tarzan
>>44207785
This, it being considered 'the great love story' is irony on par with Don Quixote being a symbol of the romance of chivalry (though i've argued Cervantes didn't sell how bad Chivalry was hard enough)
>>44205546
So Jolyne Kujo?
Isn't that obvious?
Love is not a bad emotion.
Chaos gods are made by bad emotions,by rage,pride,arrogance,despair,fanaticism,doubt,envy
Every Traitor Primarch's problems were caused by them.
While love sometimes can cause more bad than good it is a single emotion that represents what is best in mankind.

Put some more armor on her, don't put her in jail and you're clear to go.
>>44204245
Love is gay.
