I like the idea that after the third game, Sly and Carmelita are very physical with one another. But not in a sexual way, more like a have-been-through-way-too-much-trauma-and-need-healthy-support kind of way.
We have Sly, who at age 8 witnessed his parents violent deaths right before him, and the immense pressure of reclaiming his heritage and rebuilding his family's legacy with his two best friends/brothers he met at an orphanage.
And we have Carmelita, who's backstory is purposely ambiguous, but there is evidence that she's probably been through a lot. Especially after the events of Sly 2 take place.
After the trilogy, I have this idea that there was probably a long adjustment period for the both of them. Even if the Constable Cooper thing didn't stick or work out as is was supposed to, there was probably a steep learning curve.
Carmelita, being the attractive young woman she is, probably gets very uncomfortable when people invade her personal space unannounced. She's unfortunately used to creepy leers and attempted gropes, which usually ends in a finger or two getting broken for the opposite party.
When Sly attempts to touch her, she automatically tenses. He notices this, and he immediately backs off because he doesn't want to impose. It takes a couple of tries, but she gets accustomed to small affectionate gestures. Him holding her hand, his leg pressed against hers, etc.
Sly, on the other hand, is probably extremely touch starved. Yes, he hugged his adopted brothers and fist bumped and patted backs. But this is Carmelita, she's different. He needs to be extremely cautious, but at the same time he's longing, craving, some sort of physical contact to comfort him. He lost that privilege one fateful night as a child, and I doubt the orphanage had a good support system before Bentley and Murray.
Sly has horrible nightmares when they live together, and wakes up to Carmelita shaking him, trying to snap him out of whatever terror he's experiencing. This happens often, and one night Carmelita takes a leap of faith, and invites him to her bed. They don't do anything spicy, they just sleep curled up against each other.
They make progress as time goes on. Carmelita gradually gets used to Sly being close, whether they're sleeping in the same bed or just leaning against each other on the couch doing whatever they're doing. Sly adapts to the space that Carmelita invited him in, he knows where the lines are and knows what is okay and not okay.
They learn new things about each other every day. One afternoon when Sly is curled against Carmelita on the couch as she flips through case files, she hears him purr. She didn't know he could even do that. Another morning Sly wakes up before Carmelita, and notices that her legs twitch occasionally when she's asleep in their bed, as if she was having a running dream. He finds it adorable.
It becomes second nature for them. They stroke each other's tail fur without a second thought, they scratch each other behind the ears, they nuzzle, etc.
And it hits Carmelita one day that she loves Sly. It hits her like a freight train. His touch isn't letcherous or lustful; it's tender, its loving. He loves her not because she's good looking, but because it's her. And she knows he feels the same way, because otherwise he wouldn't get her favorite order from the take out restaurant a few streets down or remember what shampoo she likes the most.
Sly already knows that she loves him too. She subconsciously purchases his tea brand of choice when she's at the store, and puts on a jazz playlist for him in the background when he's making dinner for both them.
And as they lay in their bed one autumn night, it stuns Carmelita. That the thief she once despised, the criminal that gave her so many headaches after his heists, is cuddled there with her. That he would literally take a bullet for her, and that he already had. And if someone tried to bust into their home right then and there with malicious intent, she would shoot them without remorse.
And she wraps her arms around her sleeping ex-criminal, listening to him breathe, and swears that she'll never let him go.

This part here where Palm lifts his head as Neung is falling on him to kiss him? 100% intentional.
Palm definitely knew what was coming, but if that really wasn't his Neung, he might move his head away at the last second. Or he knew that realistically, the kiss would just be awkward if Neung just fell on top of him. So my guy Palm, whipped as he is, was not taking ANY chances, and said "No, I'm GONNA kiss my boyfriend" and hence why there was the little head lift to kiss him before Neung had the chance to catch himself properly.
(Or uk, Palm was just being Palm and had no thoughts, just "my boyfriend's lips are there, so I will kiss them." Still very in character in my opinion.)
Usually, this sort of scene that plays out in other romantic dramas, where the leads have an accidental kiss, can be seen as sort of cheesy or cliche. I think P'Jojo knows this, and was like "nope, not doing this today". (I mean, he did also mock the outdated "wife" trope old BLs liked to use, so it's totally possible that he switched up the cliché accidental kiss scene too)

Pizza Hut Singapore recently expanded their menu to include the Hut Melts, which was previously only available in locations such as the US, Japan and Thailand. For S$7.90, you get two triangles of folded melts that resembled a thin crusted pizza. You get to choose from the following flavours - Hawaiian, Beef Pepperoni, Spicy Chicken Pop, Cheesy Corn ‘N’ Shroom and Tuna.
Mum wanted the Hawaiian Hut Melts while I took the Cheesy Corn ‘N’ Shroom Hut Melts. When you picked up a slice, you know that the crust will be crispy and it tasted just like pizza too with all the gooey melted cheese. The only difference here is you get to choose between the normal and spicy tomato sauce which acted as a dipping sauce instead. While mum don't fancy it, I on the other hand love this and would be trying out the other flavours soon.

Walked onto your blog to tell you a silly thing and got distracted as hell by shinies and tasty treats. Anyway I was thinking of DMD a lot today when I stumbled into Bath and Body Works and saw their new stuff is like 70's /early 80's themed. There's even a lil smiling sun thing and LOTS of Day/Night themes. So now I have to ask if the Boys can smell/had a perfume or skincare line.
It took me as long as it did to get to this ask because the first thing I did upon receiving it was look up these new 70s themed items LMAO
To answer your question - yes, they can smell! (and taste, for that matter, but that won't become relevant for another few chapters still)
While there was never a skincare line, both mascots did have several products up that alley!
Sun's most coveted line was a perfume named Kiss of Dew (Perennial Sunflower, Clothesline Linen, Vibrant Rosewood, and "Essence of Spring"), while Moon's was a cologne by the name of "Nova Nights" (Teakwood Embers, Fair Goji Liqueur, Jimsonweed, and "Midnight Comets")
Both have makeup lines as well (predictably, with Sun's being warm colors and Moon's being cool) which were equally popular. Despite not having 'true' skin, both of them loved playing around with their own products and would constantly do each other's makeup before each shift. You know that one meme? Yeah. Every single day.
It hasn't happened in a while, now, because both have lost the spirit for it. There's no point in getting all dressed up for an empty mall.

Number 5 from each category for Piff!
Are there any instances where your Tav can permanently leave the party, depending on player character actions?
Yes, I think she would if you didn't take her to the house of hope/ don't try to kill Raphael. She'd just. Start a fight in the hells and you would either have to jump in on her side, join Raphael's to defend him and kill her, or let her fight and escape. And if you let her escape. She's coming for you later.
How do they react to the Player Character taking their first tadpole power?
"Hmm... how do you feel? Any unfamiliar headaches or squirming? Any delusions of grandeur or power? Fascinating. *Takes notes* Will you allow me to observe the next time you ingest one? Oh, no no. Take my portion, please. I don't want any more of those things in my brain. No, no, you are not a research subject, not at all!"
Does the romance have different branching paths, or just one route to take?
As fun as a branching path would be, I think just the one! Unless there was some powerful magical influence that would impact her personality, but I think the most split there would be is whether she wants to return to nobility or to continue on as an adventurer, and which one the player would see a future with.
