#im pretty sure rupert always gets shot at the border if he escapes connor

This is my first post talking about Detroit (begging for the Detroit Tumblr fanbase to be thriving in these desperate times).

The rarepair of Ralph/Rupert is one of the best rarepairs. I've seen in this game. Granted, I haven't seen many (please tell me about your rarepairs I love rarepairs immensely). I've always been obsessed with the headcanon that they were both workers in Detroit Urban Farms, and that Ralph's assault was what Rupert witnessed and deviated to. Don't get me wrong.. Ralph with the Jerries (or just a Jerry) are really good too, and I sometimes find myself enjoying Ralph and Kara as a pairing (it's a fifty/fifty, mostly since I'm a big KarLuther fan personally (though I also sometimes just enjoy single mom kara too)), but something about this rarepair hits me.

I always headcanoned Ralph as having a love for animals, he just can't quite care for one due to his spontaneous fits of anger. I like to think he likely tried keeping that dead bird in his house as a pet but accidentally killed it when it did something that set off his nerves. Rupert.. obviously.. loves pigeons. The man lived with like 70-100 of them.

They'd bond over birds.. I like to think Rupert would try to assist Ralph with trying to care for animals and nature again, but also ensure that he's being careful with the birds.
