Ralph. If generally prefer official couples.

I think Kirby, but she would be nice if she was single.

She should be with Balto. 8D

I think she's a bit young for Steele. And I've seen a girl try to teach a troublesome guy some manners by dating him. It was a spectacular failure on par with the Titanic and the Hindenburg. As if that wasn't lesson enough, I tried teaching a girl some manners by dating her. I might as well have beaten my head against a brick wall every day for two years.

And how many topics of this nature are out there anyway?

If Dusty mated with Balto that would be creepy.

Egotistical, yes. Jerk, absolutely. But young? No. And there are definite problems with romance across generations; that's why such things are, to say the least, frowned upon (as in punishable with jail time) in some countries, if not most/all of them. And, come to think of it, on this site.

Setting aside the fact that Steele tried to, in effect, kill a whole town's worth of children, who's hating on him? You called him an egotistical jerk; I just agreed. And Steele's puppyhood is irrelevant. I was addressing his age; he's old enough to be Dusty's dad, for pity's sake. I oppose Balto/Dusty just as much; I simply left that can of worms alone because Calvin beat me to it.

As for Balto "burning him down," since when did Balto force Steele to sabotage a mission of mercy? Steele would have been just as much of a failure, and just as evil, if Balto never showed up.

It was pretty evident from the way the characters interacted that Steele's animosity toward Balto was a pre-existing condition. Besides, Steele was only shooting himself in the foot by trying to stop Balto from saving Rosie's life. I can just see Jenna going, "Oh, Steele, I don't care that you killed Rosie and every other kid in town just to get Balto away from me, because Balto's gone."

And FYI, wrong. That may be how it worked way back when people only lived to be 40 or so anyway (and truth to tell I have my doubts about even back then). But a romantic relationship with someone old enough to be your mom or dad is twisted, wrong, and setting yourself up for trouble on a number of levels which I won't go into here because I could get in trouble just for talking about them. This topic could be shut down just for having a suggestion like that in the polls, and it makes no difference if the guy is a hero like Balto, or a second-degree mass-murderer.

And frankly, you can have the opinion that a red balloon is purple, or silver, or green. But let's see you find some realistic material to back up your opinion that Steele's right for anyone, let alone someone young enough to be his daughter.

I prefer Dusty and Ralph, cannon couple :3 but Steele and Dusty would be scandelous lol.

DT- Not gunna argue with you or anything but couples can be different ages, my friend's mom is in her late thirties and his dad is 62. They seem to be working out just fine and its actually not THAT creepy. Another thing to look over is Hulk Hogen's wife leaving him for a man that is actually younger than her kids... Plus they are dogs what does age matter to them?

Rushie out

The Hulk Hogan example was suicide on your part, really. All that's proven by her leaving him at all, really, is that her wedding vows meant nothing to her. The age difference just casts further doubt.

EDIT: I've given it some thought, and I suppose with adults, age difference isn't obscene per say. Gross, maybe (nothing personal). I still maintain that in the case of Hulk Hogan and his family it's twisted and wrong; I say that of any divorce, really.

That still doesn't change Steele's part of it, though. Honestly, there's nothing to suggest that he ever changed, or would change. And like I said, I've tried the changing-through-dating strategy before.
