I do my best to edit this with critique!

We should have an encounter with a lioness who dislikes advances during February.
Because it would be refreshing after all the sex encounters all month!

She is beautiful and totally date-worthy, but... She doesn't want anything but friendship! Ironic, considering the season....
THE ENCOUNTER IS 100% AMBIGUOUS.

Explore Encounter text:
"A beautiful lioness strides by you and pauses, grinning softly. What does that grin mean?"

Options and results:
1) "She's DTF!" -----> "You strut toward her, and start boasting about your... assets. She listens patiently, but, when you ask if she'd like to experience these for herself, tells you politely that she's not interested. Ah, well. She left you something for good luck!" (+1-2 HS)
2) "She's friendly!" -----> "You dip your head kindly to the lioness. Her smile widens, and she gifts you with something before trotting elegantly off." (+1-2 HS, +3% Impression)

Also suggested: A male counterpart to this encounter, in which a male isn't interested in flirting with lionesses!

As great as the sex encounters are, a disinterested lioness is refreshing~

^^^ The first option/result isn't any worse than this encounter ^^^




This suggestion has 455 supports and 82 NO supports.

Let's please not argue about it though, it got the lesbian lionesses thread visited by mods too many times. This'll probably get about the same thoughts/support ratio anyway just because Feb. is the sex month and some people want the encounters to remain thematically about mating.

Nirah isn't hinted to being gay. Ya can interpret him that way or as eccentric or socially awkward .

I didn't support before but I'll support now that it's more open to interpretation

I'm glad, @Risio~

I think my joke from before was misinterpreted, so I edited my post to have an explanation. ^^'

like I think this is a very good idea to show that in nature, a lion is going to get rejected a lot/ not fuck every lion they meet.

and if you are more into anthropomorphic lioden lions, then you could also take it as she's a different sexuality, or just doesn't have to date everyone.

Hey there! First of all, I'd like to begin stating that I'm all for representation as long as it is done in a proper, respectful fashion.

Aphrodisia has always been the "springtime" of Lioden as far as I've been around, and with the game being set from the perspective of animals, who get expecially lovey-dovey for whatever reason and from then on we have to protect our own harem from other males while trying to win over ladies from other prides - that's the mechanic of the whole event. With that said, I'm frankly on the fence with the suggested encounter.

On one hand, why not? But on the other the whole encounter consists on our main male being confused by the lioness' demeanor and either being slapped for approaching or receiving a gift for doing some sort of bow at her before she goes away. In other words, there is no actual indication of disinterest before we pick a choice, and the lioness in question overreacts quite a bit for simply approaching. I wouldn't have an issue with this if it weren't because the whole encounter is so humanized, and I think it portrays both people interested and disinterested in sexual relationships very poorly, as it is sort of assumed that we would force her to take part in something she is not interested in.

I mean, take a look at the two lionesses grooming each other, for example. We find them in explore, we either decide to flirt or just make friendly conversation, then move on because our flirting is completely useless or after having a pleasant chat with them - it is respectful for both parties.

With that said, I'm afraid I'll have to no support, at least while the whole encounter is suggested as it is right now.

"Feb. is the sex month and some people want the encounters to remain thematically about mating."

I'm one of these people. ^^ I've nothing against sexualities, but February being the super heat month on Lioden, and lions being animals following their instincts, I just prefer the realism personally (even if there's a lot of unrealistic stuff in this game these days, but you know).

I have to agree with Berenos. While I think this idea would be okay in theory, the way it's phrased right now makes the lioness just seems really off??? Like if she comes up to you while grinning and then beats you up when you smirk at her....

It comes off as almost anime-like where a guy does literally nothing and the girl is like "I-It's not like I like you or anything!" and then slaps him across the face for no reason.
