That would be Gaunt and Lilith, an Inquisitor from the book Ghostmaker. Also Gaunt and the one dudes daughter, because he said something along the lines of "I'd want to but after today I'll go back to being a Soldier and you'll go back to being a Noblewoman."
Though that ends because Caff gets killed...by a child... he's trying to save...[/spoiler]
Um yeah...Tragic.
Really, it is.
But when I said possible love stories I was kind of reffering to 40k in general. You CAN make the scenario up if you want to. Don't limit yourself to just one author like Dan Abnett (blessed be his name).
I can make up a scenario? Okay:
One day, a Great Unclean One and a SoB made love, she got pregnant, and gave birth to babbling warp spawn, dying in childbirth as well.
It was sad, because they used to kiss in the rain, lie in the middle of the road and stargaze, he even built a dream home for her.
I shall call it, "The Notebook"

But if an Unclean One was involved there would be too many STD's and such floating around she wouldn't live to GET pregnant.
Have you SEEN the Dolly Parton?

Thought this was relevant (not a shoop btw)

Once upon a time, I told myself it's better to be smart than lucky. Every day, the world proves me wrong a little more.
Of course its not a Shoop, Dolly parton has great knockers.

Oh...
That was me...(sheepish)
I guess i don't know the history of Dolly-Whats-her-face (and from the way she is likened to someone who slept with a Great Unclean One, I don't want to)

LOL! Good one...
By the way, there is plenty of fighting where Guant and/or Cain is involved (though Cain more so dogs it).
With all that hate a Commissar dishes out, they all must have a little soft spot somewhere, it's just that if anyone knew they would laugh at them. (mabye not to thier face)

They are just short films about each of the classes of Team Fortress 2. They started off as simple tech tests, but have now gone a step further. (very slight NSFW, but only very, very slight).
Short films (not just relating to the classes) being released have not been ruled out of the question. Valve is awesome.

Informing people of the greatness of Team Fortress 2 is a public service and should be lauded.
Anyhoos, 40k love stories. Could happen, but not by gw. One of my local gw staff members submitted a story to the short story omnibus that was published a bit ago. It got rejected because it was about normal citizens, rather than SPAZZZZZEEE MARINEZZ HURR!!! (not really, just not about war or the inquisition). So I doubt that love stories would be accepted.

Well, a lot about Ravenor (Inquisitor) analyzes the daily lives of citizens. I think that guys mistake was to concentrate too much on the citizens. It is best if some violence/thrills/action was put in the book as well.
In many 40k stories, the love part is just a side story. It would be interesting to see something more concentrated on it.
Perhaps some Eldar Striking scorpion who stows away on a Dark Eldar ship to rescue his love who is held there?
Actually there could be a lot of kidnapping/rescuing love stories in 40k. Especially with Dark Elder (baddies in the story mostly); even some tradegy if the rescuer was too late, or if thier love was mentally scarred by the torture...

There was a deathwatch book where the inquisition made a deal with eldar, i forget the deal, but there was a fairy tale where some inquisitor fell in love with a farseer and had a half human half eldar kid with her. He loved her and whatever, but his duty caught up with him and he was forced to lead an army to slaughter the farseers people and kill the kid. The inquisitors are having a conversation with the inquisitor lord at their base, and one brings it up and another basically calls him on it being a fairy tale, when an old inquisitor points to a picture or a hologram or something of the story in the lords office and says he would know better than anyone the penalty for love or something like that and calls him the same name as the guy who fell in love with the farseer.
To sum that up much simpler, inquisitor falls in love with farseer, they have kid, kid gets old enough to get psychic powers, inquisitor kills farseer and half and half.

That sounds like a really, REALLY horrible slashfic. Humans cannot have children with Eldar no more than a Tau can bump uglies with a Ork.

So turn the Eldar and DE into the COGs and Locust? Replace Striking Scorpion with Dom and you're good to go.

It's a book by Goto. From what I hear, he's one of the worst authors in the BL. Warrior Coven involves DE, and there's one, Warrior Brood, that involves like Tyranid-Eldar hybrids

You heard correctly. I think it was made a Crime Against Humanity to ever let him near a Typewriter ever again
