Haters are going to hate.
Praisers are going to praise.
The Bungie Forums are what keeps my mind sharp and my fingers active, between writing my own movie scripts, drawing, and studying industrial design. At the moment I'm working on miniatures for a short movie that I'll hopefully be able to film once I've saved up for a camera... That's me, with the mug, trying to have a conversation with Konoko.
I wouldn't say that loving someone and being a lover to someone are the exact same thing. I've always seen thier relasionship as something more platonic. They're both tools, and they've only known work (John more or less), in their world there hasn't been room for more, and that's what they're used to. However, within their work, there is some rool for personality, and whilst working, they've learnt to value one anothers. They click, they're comfortable with one another and both would trust each other with their lifes.
Haven't sensed it so much from the games, and it might be too late for that now, but I've always imagined that they're both a bit scared of what would happen if the circumstances that have been keeping them together all this time, would change. Their relasionship has been a product of the war, etc, how would they behave if all of that was removed? Adventure to the end!
At the end of Halo 4 Cortana revealed to John that she's "waited so long to do that", when touching him. That's the first time that I sensed that they might be aiming towards a more romantic relasionship. Hope it isn't as blunt as yet another ordinary love situation, whatever they do. Turn Cortana physical, and mutate John to something compatible, and have them finish the Didact and the Librarians love arc... (half jokingly).
