Honestly I still want to see how TOB would have written Kiyoko and Kinu if she was able to get a dick and make the PC the mother of the family. then again I generally mostly engage with the game as a female PC and I barely bothered with most of the Kitsune stuff besides getting the waypoint and Jstar's character who is well written imo
I'm genuinely curious how the Kiyoko/Kinu situation would handled be if Tobs actually let you pass the orb off to Brint, Quin, or Arona. On one hand Kiyoko wouldn't interact with you ever because if it doesn't pertain to the Kitsune she couldn't care less about it. But all the Kitsune drama, Kinu and Kiyoko's more awful traits would be their problem. Bonus points because 2 out of 3 of those options are deadbeats who have bastards and I'm 99% sure Quin wouldn't make a good parent either. Be funny having him try to write a reason for the Champ to care about KinuQuest and the like.
"Hey Dad's friend did I tell you that some weird Taoth worshipper snuck into the den and set fire to me and my siblings' home"
"Oh my, I'm sorry Kinu, but why aren't you telling Brint about this"
"I tried, halfway through he just shrugged and said sucks to suck Asagiri and dragged mom into their home, I can still hear their moans."
There, Tob gets his deadbeat dad, and we don't have to deal with his "realistic" characters just too get a party member.
But alas, he couldn't call people attracted to Kinu incestuous or turn her into a spite project so we know that option was never on the table.
Kind of funny though, Atugia got a whole new recruitment path and turned into one of the 3 mandatory party members because people were miffed you were forced to sleep with her. But Kiyoko exists with the same exact problem, yet she persists because her entire character revolves around you being the father of her child.
Funnily enough it contains basically all the things that nowadays these hacks claim are inconceivable to ask of them, like actually having a say in who YOUR OWN CHARACTER THAT YOU YOURSELF CREATE THIRSTS AFTER!!!! Reading that made me seriously angry for once...
But how could they write your character drooling over their dmpcs if you weren't a polyamorous pansexual who was in to everything and anything, it's just inconceivable.
