That a question I'd like to pose to any of you that put effort in the character development of your fursonas and other characters. I wrote a quick test run story involving Bri the Raccoon and my recently revived character Todd the Prairie dog. As I said in previous post I am aiming to put Tod and Bri together into a romance story. I had written in Bri's current bio and his new one soon to come, that under that raccoon mischievousness of his is a charming and very kind hearted person. But when I wrote the test story, Bri blew my mind at just how sweet and intensely loving he truly is especially to Tod. I kind of feel bad for retiring Tod all those years ago since i created those two characters together as a duo. Well lesson learned. Now that Tod is out of retirement and reunited with Bri, they will never again be separated. Rather its the romance story I will eventually be writing or any future story thereafter involving them, one will not be without the other. Both will always be a pair for as long as the characters exist.
As for the test story. I may post that up here and on FA after I finish working on character bios for the romance story and do some art work I've been meaning to do for awhile.

I was writing a scene involving some grandmas in a family baking cookies for an upcoming gathering. And suddenly, every other character in the story walked into the kitchen to eat the still cooling cookies. Which does not surprise me given how good chocolate chip cookies taste 5 or 6 minutes out of the oven, but it was also not supposed to happen in my plan.
Another incident, but not from one of my characters. I had a desire to create a fictional city, and did not want to take the time to design the whole city. Instead, I looked over some cities' zoning laws, and also read a book called A Pattern Language (author's name escapes me right now). From this, I came up with 10 rules to follow when I needed a new piece of city.
And then I heard a voice in my head:
I object. Based on rule #10, there's a lovely waterfall that I can't get to now.
o.O
Also, thank you for the watch. :)
