Ali's turn to ask a question! :)
Who are your character's love interests? Do they have one true love in their canon? A series of failed relationships and angry exes? Have they sworn off love entirely? Do they have the hots for someone in the City?
Yeah, so basically feel free to tl;dr on the subject on canon and City love interests! If I get bored later, I might even make a chart showing about it!

Fandom likes to pair him off with everyone ever in the Batfam, but that's not super usual for Batfam characters. They are apparently shippable with everyone. More recently, he gets paired off with Roy Harper and Koriand'r, which I kind of like. Ngl, they are becoming my bromance with benefits OT3.
There's also Scarlet, which I dig in the way of her having a RED HOOD IS COOL older brother type crush? But not in any requited or sexual way.
In the City, he's not!dating Jessica Wakefield. I say not dating because she shows up at his apartment and he makes shitty life decisions but he'd never actually define it as such.
Doom is Valeria-sexual until the end of time.
Aoi is practically a computer and doesn't understand sex so hot.
Stephen is kind of a manwhore. He was quite the womanizer in college and med school. He had numerous unnamed chicks around then, and most, if not all of his relationships were vapid and pointless. He was engaged to a UN translator in his early medical career, which is pretty much the only time he's shown being an okay person prior to the whole magic thing. She left him because he was terrible though, it was very Ebeneezer Scrooge.
Post-magic-thing, he's been on again off again with Clea for forever. She's probably the most serious and they exchanged rings in a pseudo-pan-dimensional marriage-thing. Prior to that there was Victoria Bentley, who totally had the hots for him and he totally macked on her once and then ignored her. He's also dated Morgana Blessing and pretty much hit on every female student he ever had. It was classy.
In his ideal universe he likes to wake up in bed with Clea and the Scarlet Witch, but then... Who doesn't, really.
He is currently sometimes dating Linda Carter. She's been the only woman post-Clea who's really been allowed to stay at the Sanctum Sanctorum. It was a big deal.
Fandom seems to ship him with Carol Danvers, which... I don't think is terrible? I'm just not really sure where that came from. But stranger things have happened.
In game, he macks on Zatanna and Callie Maggotbone, but very little is actually happening there. Can't blame him for trying though.
Pietro's first girlfriend was Crystal of the Inhumans. He married her. He went crazy for the first time in the mid-70s and basically cried that she "stole his purity". It was the most mature thing ever. He really doesn't have any other canon romantic interests, though. Following a more recent bout of crazy and drug abuse in the Silent War plotline, Crystal finally got their marriage annulled after years of them... Not really being a thing.
In the City, he's married to Angelica Jones and couldn't be happier unless there were babies.

How's the "Unthinkable" arc sit with you, out of curiosity?

I seem to remember Strange not being able to teach Reed magic which... Didn't really jive for me? Strange is the master of the mystic arts, yes, but generally speaking, he works things out in a very medical way. I would think that given Strange's scientific background and the fact that his magic does actually have some scientific base, it wouldn't be that much of a stretch for Reed. Unless like... he sat there going NO MAGIC NO or something.
Also Doom seemed just a little OP in that arc. I get that Doom is a pretty powerful character, but it seriously takes a lot to take down a sorcerer supreme. Doom's true strength in the magical world to me has always been his ruthlessness and general lack of regard for the rules of it. He's a very "ends justify the means" kind of person, so he's willing to try anything once, even if it's not the generally accepted method.
SO TL;DR - I thought it was okay, but there were a number of plotholes and continuity errors that made me go (fuu).

bestworst child(Okay, it's actually never confirmed he's Stephen's son and I have no idea who his mother is, but c'mon, look at his hair.)

They were officially married in the 1602 universe as well. Generally speaking, they're usually a couple across the various Marvel verses? Clea's level of righteous indignation over Stephen's bullshit just various.
Also... Dorkmagus. I want one.

I LIKE ALL OF THIS AND AGREE. If only the RHATO was... better written obviously but I do like the concept of them being an OT3!!
