Thanks so much for reading through our whole story and enjoying it! We're glad it hit so many of the right notes for you.
As for your questions:
-Since the scene with Cowlie and Moogaret goes straight from the TF sequence to the sex scene, we didn't have any use for sprites for any extended dialogue. The reason we have the cow sprites at all is because our artist KD drew them to act as references for our other artist, UBF
-The idea is they're going to stay in hiding for a couple more months before turning back to normal, which would probably take one or two months
-In most paths we like to mix up what people turn into, both to have a little variety and have people's main TF be somewhat of a surprise, perhaps. But, based on the situation, we feel everyone would turn into their default forms for the party, so we just went ahead and stuck with their default forms
Hope that answers things for you!
