Still love the banter between the two, and nice time of year to have this kind of frank talk between two different species too. Now I can always hope that a relationship does eventually form, so they can get to next Vday and look back at this convo and laugh. :p
I like writing these conversations, Rena's bluntness and Brian's more reserved nature make for fun moments. They clash but in a way that somehow manages to work.
Love it! Your doing great! Your a real inspiration, ya know that? And I don't mean the type of writing you do, I mean the way your write. I wish to be as good as you someday, and maybe even publish a book... That's always been my dream...
My goodness~ I never think of myself to be good enough to be an inspiration to someone, but it's extremely flattering for you to say that and I love to hear it.
I've always kinda had a knack for writing, but I've also been at this for years and years now and that experience is what really has brought me to where I am and where I will go. Time and effort have a way from bringing out some impressive things. Stick with it through the inspiration and blocks, the good and the bad, the shared and the private, and I'm confident you'll get to where you want to be someday.
I gotta say this was a quite an enjoyable story, but I gotta interject.
Scientists predict the reason why guys like large breasts and wide hips is hardwired from our ancestors. A large bust is both a sign of them being well fed, as well as being able to feed a kid. And wide hips would increase the odds of success in childbirth (the ass bit is a byproduct of this). Alternatively, guys who like more petite girls would be attracted to them for their mobility and speed.
Similarly, your 'Renamon like large tufts of fur' thing would still be based on combat. Hair and fur would get easily damaged in a fight (especially with all the fire and electricity flying around) so a large fluff would denote that they could not only find time to maintain it, but actually avoid getting it damaged in day to day life. Plus the size and softness would also denote how well fed the Renamon is, thus proving they are a capable hunter.
Over the top commentary on breeding aside, great series, keep it up. :P
yeeeeees~ I love getting in-depth comments like this~
For Brian’s situation I can save myself a little bit. Since this comes from his perspective I can just claim he didn’t know all of that and that’s why it played out the way it did.
As for Rena though… I have no such defense. While I did try and fail to think up a good reasoning for the tuft being important in mate attraction, I still kept it in to make that tuft/breasts confusion joke ^_^;
Though, given Brian didn’t understand his ancestral desires, it wouldn’t be unreasonable for Rena to have the same thing happen to her I suppose. I still love your reasoning for its importance though, that was actually very clever and I wish I’d come up with something like that~
To be honest, I kind of thought of it the day you posted it. I love puzzling over pointless stuff like that, specially since it really doesn't matter. But of course this implies that this Renamon is a rather poor hunter... and raises the question of how much of her tuft is fluff and how much is 'meat'.
Admittedly, I knew it was just a breast joke, but I just had to post it. You could say it was... eating at me. Vore puns Ho!
