Some simply haven’t seen enough content like this.
Hell, I know there’s a plethora of content I’ve never seen.

It happens. I think familiarity would’ve been a part of it along with the desire for something new and novel. But like fashion it can come back. Always doing and seeing the same thing leads to boredom after all.

The topic has a bit of nuance. There was a push to reground what fluffies were and the mythos around them back in July but various extraneous stressors made that unfeasible.
That is to say, FC fuckery.
I’m in favor of people doing whatever they want because that’s what fluffy content always was, but it’s good to see some classic stuff make a return.

I enjoyed Back to Basics.
But that being said, I like weird sci-fi elements like bio-programming that will always seem a bit out there to some.

Doesn’t have to be mutually exclusive. Jerry the uploaded fluffy personality is 100% up your ass alley.

Me and someone from the discord came up with the concept of Fluffies with a node on their head that holds a personality imprint, kind of like Altered Carbon.
We even brainstormed a digital sorrybox, where you remove the node and hook it up to a cyberspace based empty room.

currently at a loss for ideas. any suggestions for a sequel, or something similar to The fluffy condition?
How about a story about how fluffies are responding, evolutionarily and behaviorily, to being feral? With their mixed genetics, are sections of their dna activating, giving instincts that might be useful for survival? Are there now genetic differences between city and rural fluffies?

That was fantastic! Innocence like this is exactly what I love about fluffies, and the explanation of them trying to live in a world they weren’t meant for is absolutely perfect sadbox!
For a sequel, how about showing how the fluffies deal with the fact that not every human is nice, and even fewer willing to adopt ferals in their times of need.

Damn. I loved this a lot. Im really loving your work, its got a nice style, and the notebook scheme is super neat
Holy shit, that was my childhood game lol i was like 9-10 when i found that game
I think this was beginning to get touched on in a sadly unfinished story by @Giant_Neckbeard about an orchard with cows and domesticated fluffies and hugbox niceness. It begins to get overrun by ferals who want to eat the harvest.
The details escape me, there were maybe some scientists studying herd-vs-herd behavior, who noted that there were differences in skeletal structure and temperament among the feral herds. They also had their own social behaviors no domestic fluffy tried to do. Which makes sense even if natural selection is just specializing them ever so slightly over a wide area of the wild, like Darwin’s finches.

Not bad.
Honestly reflects and refracts from how I portray Smarty Syndrome as less “Fluffy is an asshole” and more “Fluffy seeking to survive” by effectively showing exactly how lacking a sense of instinct and survival can cause problems.
