Firstly. I ask that all talk of Kitty's awkward race commentary be kept in the off topic thread as it has nothing to do with the game.
Comic authentic and comic accurate does not mean we plan on adapting awkward racial commentary.
One of Kitty's quirks is simply that she likes to be an asshole when gaming online.
hence the joke about playing halo 2 with her and shit talking in the lobby.
Although these two comments made me laugh. I'm gonna bully the writers into having Kitty have several chat boxes of bleeped out rants if you ask her to play halo.
Her nerdiness will likely be represented how it is in the comics. She's a genius and a geek but it's not really part of her identity other than just a thing she does on the side.
yeah yeah kittys hot but when do i get to eat storms peach
Version 1.1
-Is two-quirks-per-girl going to be the rule, or could there be more/less on some of them?
Depends on how inspired the writers are and what sources I provide them to work with in the outline.
-Will they always show up on stat-screen after getting to knowing her well and be openly encouraged/discouraged?
Or might there be some kinky stuff about them that the girl keeps a bit more hidden (maybe even from herself, humans are that way)
and which could be incited/doused by our decisions without the player knowing it?
Only time will tell in how we alter or tweak quirks. I know this isn't a satisfactory answer but it's the only one I can provide.

A moment to inform everyone of what it means when I'm called/stated to be the Story Outliner.
The process is that I read all the comics(Ron and our Headwriter were Evo fans), summarize them, explain HOW they can be adapted, and the writing team goes onto translating my summarizations into the narrative you see in game. They take creative liberties as I have no part in what the writing team does with sandbox interactions and dialogue. Rogue liking Invader Zim for example is something I found about when you did.
Buttholder came in after I had outlined chapters 1-4 and has filled in a lot due to him reading even more X-Men main and side comics. With his expertise in direct X-Men information I went to read Rom the Space Knight, the Dazzler solo series(much of which will be included or referenced in TNH), Spider-Woman, and Ms. Marvel just to get full context of their overlap with the X-Men.
Holder is also the outliner for X-23 as he has a fundamental understanding of the character better than I do and he's analyzed all of the missteps modern Marvel has taken with her.
While this is not confirmation of any kind. Ms. Marvel* and Spider-Woman are the most likely contenders of non-Mutant flings. What I can confirm is both are on the table for potential sequels.
*Erase the MCU version from your mind. Completely different character.
