You know, I was just curious about the development of relationships between pups in the game. It seems like one minute I read a log with two of them meeting, and then bam they're together. Is it because of how dense the emotional content of the game is? Is it because it's easier to write a pup in a relationship (meaning with one writing partner, not that relationships are easy)? Is it because there's an expectation that pups, if not a 'slut pup,' should be paired up?
I have a bitch of a time with my pup when it comes to relationships. I don't consider Shan a 'slut pup' but she's jumpy about formalizing any sort of relationship, and it sort of fascinates me how other pups seem to slip and glide from one serious partner/lover to the next. Honestly, I think my pup would cry and angst and denydenydeny for a long time before she'd /ever/ give the go-ahead to be someone's partner.
And of course there's differences between all the pups, but is it just me or does the quicked relationships seem to be a pattern in game?
If your pup is in a serious relationship, why do you think that is? (In
and out of game reasons?)
If your pup is a 'slut pup,' is it because they don't want relationships or...?
What about pups with several serious partners? Or those with life partners NPCed and have them play around in game?
ps. *loves on you all for all the great responses omg*
