Subject: Is Master Chief In Love With Cortana?

Racism isn't wrong if it's funny.

Now, I know this might be a stupid question, but that's never stopped me before, so here it goes.

I was talking with my brother the other day and he mentioned something about Mater Chief being in love with Cortana. My initial response was to say, "Master Chief can't be in love with Cortana...can he?"
I thought for a moment then a few things hit me.

Firstly, someone (you'll have to forgive me, I don't remember who) in the Halo 3: Limited Edition bonus 'Making Of' documentary mentions that exact thing; Master Chief and Cortana is a love story.

Secondly, Cortana posses the same emotions and feelings that all humans posses. Therefore she would be capable of feeling and/or being in love.

Thirdly, her dialogue with the Chief often seems like the kind of dialogue you would expect from two people who are in love (i.e. "Don't make a girl a promise, if you know you can't keep it").

So, I pose this question to you and ask you for your thoughts. Is it possible that this is the closest an A.I. has ever been to a human?

They are not in love in a romantic sense of the word.

They spend so much time together that they have become what could be called two very good friends who are in something that resembles love. Friend love, they would die for each other, but MC has no libido from the augmentations and Cortana is a program so they lack the attraction required for romantic love.

Not necessarily romantic, that would be impossible just from the lack of a body stand point.
My whole perception though is that they seem to be much closer than friends, even if they're not in love.

In that sense, yes, they are. Not romantic, but farther than friends.

It's more like a brother/sister relationship. Like Chief and the rest of the Spartan-IIs

No, I don't think so. Chief trusts no one like Cortana.

Yes. Yes they could.

Cortana is made from a direct neural image of a cloned brain of dr Halsey, who is for all intents and purposes Johns mother.

So this thread is icky.

...what?!

John was personally taken by halsey aged six and raised and trained with the rest of spartan 2 class 1. They all see her as somewhat of a mother figure. Its probable John does not even remember his real mother.

In the way that she is Jorge's mother, meaning she was the mother of the Spartan II program. Halsey only had one bun in the oven, and that would be lil' Keyes.

Cortana and the Chief have a purely platonic love; a near-robot human is able to trust a near-human aritificial intelligence like nothing else. Not Sarge, not either of the Keyes, not Spark, not anyone but her---
But think about it: who can he trust? The closest the Chief reached a bond of trust with any physical being was the Arbiter, you know, after he killed thousands upon thousands of humans. I think even though he fought with John, that probably kept the Arbiter on thin ice.

TLDR-Cortana is all the Chief has. It is a platonic love story.

Oh, thank you for clarifying. I was about to Facepalm because of how much stupidity would have been in the literal version of that statement.

Though I will bring up this fact. A person is defined and grows according to their experiences. Therefore, even a clone won't be the same exact person as their original because they have lived a different life.
Same applies to Cortana.

Of course he is. You can see the lust in his opaque visor. You can hear the passion in his cold monotone mutterings as he inserts Cortana's chip into his helmet. You can practically smell the sheer desire in his likely-overflowing waste storage units. You can feel the emotion in the air as he repeatedly shoves an alien skull into his crotch.

I think it is safer to say that he loves her as much as a Spartan can really love someone.

I don't think a Spartan can fall in love.
