Questions for cowboy dogboys: how do the gang handle their liquor, if they drink? Is there a specific cowboy or farm activity that Mutt really enjoys? Does Dorian try to help on the farm? Bonus: could you assign any Orville peck songs to them?

Cowboy Dogboy!!!! Thank youuu.

how do the gang handle their liquor, if they drink? Mutt: Mutt can hold his own, but you can tell when hes hit his limit when he starts getting weepy and nostalgic. Bea: Not sure if she drinks! 🤔 Undecided… But if she does I know she'd be doin just fine keeping up with Mutt. Dorian: one shot of whiskey and he's done for 🥴 oh but its okay he can manage TWO glasses of champagne before hes- whough,,, he's done for 🥴

Is there a specific cowboy or farm activity that Mutt really enjoys? I first imagined this was a sheep farm. So he likes sheep shearing,,, yearly lil seasonal haircut time.. More regularly just likes goin out to feed the animals and spend time with em they're his buddies he's very much a keep to myself all my friends are animals type of guy.

Does Dorian try to help on the farm? I mean, tries,,, maybe. 😳 I think he's gotta in exchange for a place to stay, at first so he does something yeah for sure. Not sure what he'd end up doing nothing sounds appealing to him can't he just lean against the fence and look pretty? It's tough work but someones gotta do it...

Bonus: could you assign any Orville peck songs to them? It took all my courage not to tack my absolute favorite Orville songs to them without actually thinking about it bc they are my favorites, but I did phew. Dorian gets my favorite Orville song anyway after such consideration, sorry baby boyyy.

Mutt - Nothing Fades Like the Light Dorian - Curse of the Blackened Eye Bea - Bronco Extra Bonus: Mutt/Bea - All I Can Say Mutt/Dorian - C'mon Baby Cry

think I'm going to change Bea Shepard's background from earthborn to spacer. that way I'll have a shep of each background and reputation cos Dmitri is earthborn/ruthless and Atlas is colonist/sole survivor

definitely wouldn't want to change Dmitri cos way more of who he is is tied up in being earthborn, even though I've changed some details about his childhood, such as he wasnt an orphan until he was about 10. I haven't done as much with Bea, so her background is easier to adjust. I actually think spacer would suit her better, her still having her mother would add something to her frayed relationship with her own daughter. Bea has never been great with balancing her family life with her work life. It'd be interesting to delve into how her relationship with her mother is too.

26, 30, 34 for Mutt, Bea, and Dorian? (You can answer one character per question or all three for each question!)

Thank yooou!!! [Ask Game]

26: how do they move? are they clumsy? light on their feet? do they use mobility aids?

Mutt: Hmm how to explain Mutt.. When he's working he walks strongly, confidently, he's in the zone etc. When he's around town, he feels a little out of place with his body, like he's not sure how to present himself around others. Keeps his head down often. Not clumsy per say, but you can tell when he's tired after a long day or has been drinking, he gets a little more, stumbling.

Dorian: Oh so dainty! You could easily assume he used to be a dancer. Dorian walks with his head held high (though he is subtly glancing down so not to step into anything gross...) He's both conscious of how he's presenting himself while somehow appearing effortless about it.

Bea: I could picture Bea walking with a bit of a limp, maybe an old injury acting up, especially after years of helping Mutt on the farm. I could see her using a cane from time to time, or a big ole walkin stick she found when hiking around the farm. She walks with confidence, though a bit different than Dorian, definitely has a certain swagger to her as she walks into a room.

30: do they smell like anything notable? Mutt: vaguely earthy and leather and campfire smoke, sweaty natural scents from the day etc Dorian: flowery perfumes, most notably rose or lavender, you can tell its perfume Bea: Herbs! I think she enjoyed gardening and would continue that practice when [moves in with the unnamed widow] with a nice herb garden! Good for her!

34: how would your character describe themselves? it doesn't have to line up with how they really are. (This one I had a harder time with I think they're still a bit too new to fully feel out this question 🤔) Mutt: "Just a hard worker, I try my best I mind my own business..." (man of few words… leaves out a lotta nuance about himself but he's scared to share too much..?) Dorian: "Talented, beautiful, need I say more? *bats eyes* Oh.. I do, hm? Well-" (proceeds to talk about himself for 8 minutes while Mutt stares on blankly 🧍‍♂️ ohkay..)
