Question about King's Kids

Post by Ninkurou »

Just one question, does King's offspring have human like behaviors? King was once a human, and he, of course, don't act like a full dog. So I wonder if his kids will end up with some human traits. For example, rather than wanting to bite, run after balls or the mailman, they end up wanting to use cellphones, watch tv and spent most of their time on the internet talking about online comics and software.

If King teaches them human behaviour, then maybe (depends on how strong their natural instincts are and whether they want to ignore their instincts). They won't inherit humanness genetically or anything.

Question about King's Kids

Do you believe that there is a chance of kids having the same type of personality that they parents have? Like for example, one of king's kids start acting like King, and another like his wife?

Animals in this comic already use phones and watch TV, so if they did behave like that, it would be unlikely that it was due to human instincts.

Wouldn't surprise me if one of them developed into an anxious sort like King (or another comic strip child like, say, Linus Van Pelt from Peanuts, and then another turned out to be very practical, mellow, and decisive like Bailey. Truthfully, I kinda thought we'd see the pups more frequently than we have, maybe seeing them interact with some of the younger ferals like Craig, Draig, Pueblo, or even Cassia's skunklettes. So, stay tuned....... ;)

There is no doubt that one pup will get King's personality and the other will get Bailey's personality. The third one though could go either way and I highly success the third one will be the pup with no eyes. :mrgreen:

A number of cartoonists have used the device of "the speechless character" like a pet, another animal, an infant or very small child who makes witty comments on the behavior of other characters through thought balloons. Snoopy, the Peanuts pooch, was notorious for this style. Sometimes Charlie Brown and other characters could sort of "read his mind", other times not, but Schultz milked that humor for all it was worth. I always though Rick might take the pups, or at least one of them, in that direction.

But, hey, it's Rick's world and I'm just a guest here so enough of me.... ;)

If he does go that way, then I think what Rick might due when it comes to their personalities is make one like King, one like Bailey and one who thinks about comments but doesn't talk. I still say the third one will be Ace. :lol:

Realistically speaking children pick things up from their parents, and they're growing up with access to technology. They'll almost certainly have human characteristics.

You have to wonder how annoyed that King will get with them as they get older. LOL

I imagine it'll be the standard "raising kids" hardships that gets portrayed in media.

I would love to see how he handles that and what Bailey's reaction will be. :P

I imagine the pups will pickup some awkward quirks from King, but I also think they'll probably end up picking up more from growing up in a house full of Wolves.

:D

Pretty sure that would lead to King breaking from reality when he sees his pups growing up and acting like the Celestial that tormented him and then realized WHY.
