Man I don't even think about the "friends" issue, thats to chick for me. All the Joes are professionals, anyone will work with almost anyone. Some of the "bosses" I never use together such as Duke with Flint, Falcon, etc. Some like Snake Eyes are loners and seldom work with a team. If they are not on a mission, I don't even think about who they are hangin out with. For Cobra, the Commander is leary of all his "Capos" except Storm Shadow. He feels thay are all only as loyal as their options, terrorism is a cut-throat profession. Firefly is also a loner, trust no one enough to be a friend, and is loyal to the highest contract, and Cobra has deep pockets. The only friends are the troops, Vipers hang with Vipers, Troopers with Troopers, ect. I do have some romances: Triangle with CC, Baroness & Destro, Snake Eyes & Scarlett, Flint & Lady Jaye, Shipwreck has the hotts for Cover Girl, Zarana is a ho & loves the Viper Corps and Jinx can't be trusted because she has a thing for Storm Shadow.
