Really? I've yet to see that.

Question: What part of the word "implied" do you not understand?

I will admit that I've watched the film and the only time that could have possibly been considered as Dusty/Ralph was the scene when Dusty nuzzled up against Ralph and his eyes widened. (After the race, if you didn't know) Other than that, the director (or was it writer? I don't remember off the top of my head, sorry) said that it was meant to have Dusty/Ralph as an actual couple, but because it would really take away from the main story, those ideas were scrapped. However, I did see a lot of possible implied Dusty/Kodi scenes (like a few moments after the said Dusty/Ralph nuzzle), including the fact that Dusty tried to follow after Kodi when he said he was going to follow his dad's example.

In the end, why don't we just drop the argument already? I like both shippings quite equally, so please don't make me choose. (Although I'm more Dusty/Kodi than Dusty/Ralph . . . read my fics and you'll understand)

And actually, why is this even here? They're drawings of ink and paint, not real people or anything! If a fan-writer wants to continue the whole implied pairing, then let them, gosh darn it! If they prefer something else (like Kodi/Dusty or Kodi/OC or Dusty/OC (OC = Original Character)), then it's their right to like it. You can't just make someone like what you like because someone says you have to - that's why we have freedom of expression here, duh.

Just chill out, okay? (Especially you, DT. Please . . . let's drop it, okay? I'm trying to be nice here.)

It's just sort of a vague observation I've made over time. I could get you some exact names of people, but it would take an annoying amount of reviewing to tell you which ones support both and which ones just support one. If you really want to know, I could. But right now, I'd rather not.


That's the whole beauty, the magic if you will, of animation. The characters take on a reality of their own. Heck that's why this site exists.

Well, I understand that . . . and that also why people have something called . . . . "their own opinion". Duh. Why else would there be so many different categories of fan-art, fan-fiction and other stuff, right?

But anyway, we're so off-topic right now. Let's get back on it, shall we?

When did we get off-topic? We're talking about the question of Kodi / Dusty, aren't we?
