Putting aside the package of systems, multi-dimensions, wacky characters, hard-headed hosts, and the causes of infinite doers of chaos...this could be a typical ultra-boss x subordinate love story.
Say...don't you think that'd be interesting? Let's try it out, okay?
Ah, but first, let's head over to their HQ--you know, the System Guild?

Also note that this story may or may not have some maturity to it, so readers beware. I'm trying to make it at most PG-15, but who knows?
I can't help myself, but write a bunch of stories simultaneously. Such a bad habit, such a bad pacing, such a bad author.
Elliot's partner was his whole world, but after Allan's death, his ghost haunts Elliot's dreams. Everyone tells Elliot to move on, but he isn't sure he can.
*****
It's been a year since the love of Elliot's life, Allan, passed away. Everyone thinks he should have recovered after that much time, but Allan still haunts Elliot every night. He struggles to maintain relationships with his family, and despite a coworkers interest he can't summon up the courage to date. Elliot is living for the past, because to live for the present means he'll have to live with a hole in his heart. But the question Elliot has to face chases him through his monotonous days: is mourning Allan with everything he has truly living?
