I think what makes me so deeply Normal about wolfgirls is the power of contrasts. Physically, the design elements of the ears and tail make them softer at a baseline, but they're not dogs or cats, they're wolves. They're inherently 'undomesticated' and wild and powerful, they don't need your protection or care. But they're not loners-- wolves still hunt in packs. They might have no obligation towards you, but if you're a friend, that's their every drop of blood and sweat they will put into protecting you. If you are worth caring about, that's an unshakeable, deeper-than-words, ride-or-die loyalty. Fang, fist, or steel, 'you are my ally and that means I won't let you be hurt'.

I think that's the root of it; even when the wolfgirl is aloof and seems distant, they are their emotions. Anger means they're angry, any hint of a smile means they're happy, tears mean they're sad, no social deduction necessary. Probably because the wolf bits make it hard to pretend otherwise, admittedly. Tails are for wagging and we love them for this. But either way, the end result to me is the image of someone who takes blunt-force emotional honesty and makes it their strength, and I think that's fascinating, and kind of beautiful. You will know if you mean something to them.

Meanwhile, if a foxgirl were to decide to use my face as a chair, I would thank her for the opportunity to be of use, you know, like a reasonable person

One interesting thing about wolfs is that they can't move their eyebrows, so they're much less expressive with their faces than dogs are. Except when they're angry and bare their teeth. I think wolve girls should be like this, if they're not already.

Also the fox thing is understandable

Wolfgirls that don't emote facially but have extremely expressive body language in their shoulders, ears and tails are wonderful and autism-coded and also have full legal right to pick me up off the sidewalk and take me home and keep me like one might treat a stray cat
