Okay okay so I found leon and Lucy very interesting so I am wondering how would peppy and the starfox team and starwolf team react when they found out that Leon and Lucy are dating

Ah, I see someone became curious about the Leon and Lucy. You see, someone had suggested it at random to me, and I just decided to sketch them. I was curious to see what kind of dynamic those two would have if they had ever met in such circumstances that would allow a proper conversation. And it is a tragic couple, psychologically.

And you see, Peppy Hare would never approve of it. May Lylus smite him where he stands, but he would never see his baby bun succumb to someone like Leon. Whatever honeyed venom words the lizard slithered into her head, it didn't matter. The creature was always proud of the pain and torture caused. So why should he accept someone that could easily want to get back at the team?

And the same goes to Fox's reaction, not accepting it. That's, technically, a sibling of his. Whereas Slippy is worried, but more... respecting and understanding that this might be something Lucy will want to be free of. Falco is much more... callous instead. It's not his business. It's not his circus. It shouldn't be. But he also knows Leon in a certain way and something tells him this wasn't a one sided manipulation.

Oh no, you see...

Lucy is in on it. The amount of bitterness she has over how fate ended up for her... Maybe she wants to see her father upset for all the times he was not there for her. For not seeing Vivian pass away, be next to them when they all needed that unity the most. For not permitting her to be part of the Star Fox team out of fear of losing her, like Peppy lost James. And by leaving an empty space there beside her twice as large.

There is a masochism Lucy became addicted to. And it's possibly something Leon can provide to her. A sense of understanding of what jealousy, neglect and suffering needs. A harder bite and scar that needs the comfort of soft words and healing. Trauma and fears never go away, but can be made a shield in the long run if nutured properly.

Panther is slightly more optimistic about the couple. Romantic at heart and the compass of the Star Wolf team. And of course, for Wolf, Lucy is nothing but a perfect ticket to use when they need to.
