ditzyAnd my Feral-verse plot-beasties (especially the feral-Rufus plot-foxy) have been running rampant through my brain, thanks to:
-- (1) playing too much Okami;
-- (2) (re)reading Love Pistols (aka "Sex Pistols") by Tarako Kotobuki.
I think I've finally figured out a nice powerset for feral-Rufus -- I'm going to borrow some of the brush god powers from the PS2 video game Okami. ^_^ So each tail will probably have a different power (e.g., power slash, rejuvenation, various elemental powers, cherry bomb, etc.) ^_^
Also, I have a nice setup (I think) for kitsune-Rufus' appearance. Ah, the impeding joy of Reno jaw-dropping and then getting held down and scent-marked as Rufus-property via foxy cheek-rubbing. Yes, I know that's a feline way of scent-marking and foxes normally scent-mark by urine and feces. But I wouldn't do that to poor Reno (or Tseng). Really, I wouldn't. So Rufus (and all the Cetra ferals) gets the ability for face-based (and paw-based) scent-marking, just purely for aesthetics....
But I can SO picture this scene! ::evil cackle::
----------------------------------------
Reno: (spazz) Rufus became a fox!
Reeve: (shock) Rufus is under the delusion he's a fox?
Reno: No, no! He actually turned into a fox! With fur and nine fuckin' tails!
Reeve: O_o
Cloud: (casual) Oh, well that explains the smell.
Reno: Huh?
Cloud: You're basically wearing a scent-based "Private Property of Rufus. KEEP OFF!" sign.
Reno: Shit! So you're telling that's why Rufus held me down with a paw and rubbed his damn furry face all over me, just so he could use me as a damn walking scent post?!? What the hell!?
Cloud: (appallingly nonchalant) Be grateful. Foxes usually mark territory with urine and feces. Or he could've jerked off on you.
Reno: O_O
Reeve: x_x
Cloud: (looks around) What? ^__^
