Picking a vibe for Captain Kateway's first real interaction with the Main Character
🕑 Added 2020-11-26 02:38:27 +0000 UTCFinding the right vibe for the interaction with the Captain is a critical part of making her character exciting.
Kateway is the typical sci-fi starship captain, and there was a risk of her either becoming a boring character, or the other extreme: a crazy dominatrix, and that's not where I want to take it for now.
I wanted her to remain "pure" in her intents, at least at the beginning of the game: a straight shooter, brave, principled, with an extreme sense of duty and integrity.
The typical sci-fi captain. The best of what StarCommand has to offer.
I wasn't sure how to sexualize a relationship between this hardass captain, and a junior member of her crew. Having any kind of sexual encounter with a crewmember would seem out of character.
The romance aspect wouldn't have made sense.
Then I remembered a scene from HBO's "Succession", where one of the milfy characters, one of the few characters in the show that hadn't somehow been sexualized, has an interaction with Roman, a much younger character, that goes sexual really fast, but without any physical contact.
Sex that would comply with StarCommand regulation!
This was a pretty memorable scene, I don't remember ever seeing anything like it.
It sets an intense vibe between the two.
For the characters and the audience, it's both exciting and disturbing.
They both discover they're into it.
And the next day they don't know where they stand with each other.
I wasn't sure if you would be into it.
So I put it up to a vote in the discord server, and the result was unanimous: "This is the way."
I am looking forward to making an encounter like this happen around episode 3 or 4.
Thank you to all of you who voted!!

Glad you like it! I am thinking of adding a scene in that spirit in Chapter 4!

Glad the captain is sexier and hotter than your inspiration, but the vibe is spot on !
