Scout's got that look on his face. I love how you have him in a fixed position. He's very confident there, like he almost KNOWS Milo just can't leave without some harassment.... it's just them now.

That's Scout. He's that character that is opposite of Milo that you want to have for contrast. It also allows all sorts of things to happen that wouldn't happen if Milo was on his own or with like minded individual. Adds spice.

I agree.
The way you added him in just hanging in there really caught my eye. Just one of those moments which catches you there, the intensity shoots up. :3

His orange head fur is adorable
I love him!
And is he named Scout because he's a scout? Or does is that actually his birthname?

From what others know, his mother never named him and left him with the guardians of the fortress. They ended up giving him that name. It's pretty fitting too as that's pretty much what he does. Right at that moment there, he is patrolling. Originally we supposed to be kind of a jerk, but I backed off on that aspect of his personality over time.

He seems very laid back, and somewhat bad*** though I say that about basically any anthropomorphic animal that looks the slightest bit cool or has the slightest bit of an attitude.

Oh no, he is. He doesn't take crap from anyone and has a hard time accepting authority.

Scout: What did you just call me?
Scout wants an apology.

He's feeling pretty crappy at the moment and just wants to finish out his day and go hide somewhere. The last thing he wants is a talking to about his problems from Scout. He'd much rather do that with someone that he sees in the fortress (which is why he was going there in the first place). I haven't given him a title yet because it's a profession that didn't exist in this era, and is kind of a collection of things into one job, so I'm still ironing out those details. I need more female characters.

Are there no "Land Army" girls...?

There is a female guardian yes, but she doesn't come into the story until a little later.

Heh, OK.
But by Land Army, I meant like these girls: [link]
The ones who stepped in to do the work of the men who had been called up during the War.

OH. Well, the guys are around, so there isn't much of a need for a program like that, but there are plenty of girls in the fortress and the villagers do tend to call them "Fortress girls", their duties range all over the place, but the only way anyone gets a spot in the story is if Milo encounters them and it's important to the story as a whole. I do plan on having some in an upcoming montage though.

Haha! Don't ever have Scout hear you call him that. In the original script, Milo called Scout a 'Minkrat' and he was ready to pound him into the turf!

oh dear, I am happy he didn't hear me

Seems that you're not the only one calling Scout that. Looks like some people need to learn the hard way.
