It's an interesting but difficult thread... It doesn't deal with your favourite couples, or those couples which made more X-history, but those couples who made each other better. This removes almost all of the X-couples, LOL, since 'drama' is the X and there are so many toxic and/or wretched and/or creepy couples.
I'm going for Moira & Sean, because you always can see them so
happy and peaceful together, they seem to search and enjoy their mutual company. I can easily
believe they honestly love each other, and they do no harm each other.
The same, more or less, goes for Lorna & Alex.
Rictor & Shatterstar clearly gained a lot as characters when they become a couple, so they deserve a mention as well.
I would say Warlock & Doug, who were an obvious example of 'the whole is bigger than the sum of their parts', but this couple implied a sense of personal dependency (from Doug to Warlock) which I guess is not healthy, since it was literally ravaging his own self.
Honorable mentions to Layla & Jaime and Lilandra & Xavier.
Many thanks!
You save me the obviousness of saying myself!
The same as I think Longshot & Alison did no good together (apart from great sex), I think Longshot & Rita brought out the best of each other. Actually, they were so alike that they not only understand and have such a good time together, but they worked as respective mirrors.
Rita was, in her own words, a 'misfit-running-scared', a wild stray, till she fell in love with Longshot and an unknown feeling shook her heart --up to the point that she choose a goal: to go with him to another world in order to join a slave revolution.
Longshot also met love thanks to Rita. His kind friendly heartfelt nature makes him feel immediate esteem for everybody...but it prevents him from feeling a special attach for someone in particular. Nevertheless, someway it went different with Rita: during his former miniseries, although they were separated in #2, he kept thinking about her, searched for her and was desolate when he found her in a catatonic state, pressuring Doc Strange to heal her. He showed himself much more emotionally involved and passionate than ever.
Then it was the Mojo/Spiral disaster and all, but that's another story...
I rather remember them walking hand in hand through the portal.
