But now I’m thinking

Generation Loss x The Wolfquest Stream

Hear me out-

Generation Loss happened, but the cast were wolves

ShowFall has technology that can bring the dead back to life, so who’s to say that they don’t have technology to understand animals/wolves? They delayed the show by ~20 seconds (which is why the choices took so long) so that they could caption it in real time for the audience.

Rolf was a WolfDog (inspired by the many “dude, he’s basically just a dog that we found” jokes that Charlie/Slarf made), and ShowFall snagged him from his home/family (raised basically like a dog, but had good (and rich) owners so he had a lot of space to hunt and play and develop some of his wolf-ish instincts)

Beepis was a wild wolf that ShowFall took from the wild (which is why Beepis has more experience and skill than the other two)

Slarf was a wolf who was captured by ShowFall as a puppy (which explains why he has basically the same amount of experience/skill as Rolf, despite the Dog jokes only being about Rolf and not Slarf)

(In the Wolfquest stream, Charlie/Slarf briefly mentioned his backstory, which consisted of experimentation in a lab, which kind of lines up with gl!Charlie’s backstory)

Trauma bonding caused the Wolf Polycule (platonic or romantic (In AU/Wolfquest!!! Don’t be weird!!!) I have no idea how the puppies happened, and I’m not going to try to explain it. Maybe they were adopted)

The Wolf Polycule’s behavior changed immediately after the pups arrived because that’s when the fact that death was permanent finally sunk in. They had been so used to ShowFall bringing them back that they had been goofy reckless at first. The pup’s arrival helped sink in that death was permanent because the pups had never been brought back to life by ShowFall.

The mild reactions of Beepis and Slarf when Rolf Jr. (and Burp too, I guess) died was because their experiences at ShowFall had desensitized them. Death was something that was common with ShowFall

Slarf stole the collar from ShowFall as a last Fuck You before escaping with Rolf and Beepis
