1. They're devoted to each other and always have each other's back.
2. They look good together (at least in my head).
3. They respect each other and that's clear to anyone who knows them.
4. They have great fights, meaning they get everything out and know how to make up:)
5. They're scary together, pretty formidable (remember their walk through the TV station in Glory in Death). I see this as a positive.
Negatives
Don't really have any.
Man, if there was a real-life Roarke, he would be eaten alive by all the women. I think a positive AND negative for both of them is their strong-willpower. Sometimes, it works for them but other times, it causes a rift between them. Like in Divided for example, when Roarke found the names of the people who knew what was happening to Eve when she was 8, but did nothing about it, and he wanted to hurt them. But Eve couldn't stand it if he committed murder. In the end, he destroyed what he found so that Eve can rest easier. And in that respect, Roarke's love for her is BEYOND anything I've read about in books.
*sigh* now if only he does exist.
As for the negative that is harder as some of these can be a attribute as well as a weakness: Sleep-deprived,work-a-holics,can be intimidating,to focused on the crime and not on other things, too-willing-to-bribe,
