    xD - The border guard refused to believe that a guy I had never met before in person (Even if I'd known him 13 years via the internet), would be willing to just up and house me for 2-3 months and help pay for a ticket over there; they didn't actually, you know... phone him up, even though I had a cover letter from him, because apparently a lot of illegals take a random citizen's name and say 'it's cool, this person knows I'm coming'. So they took away my papers and passport and got questioned by homeland security for half an hour.

    As you can see though, they eventually relented once they were satisfied they had enough info; I can't fault them though, it's exactly this kind've intensive screening that we don't have in Europe that I really think we need. And everyone's been very nice so far inside the country

    Border control doesnt trust his accent, also the below

    Now that's what I call the 'Murrician hospitality(more reason to NOT migrate to the US)

    if you guys wonder how i got these information, as much as i like to say it's a secret, but better to tell partial truth, lets say there was a group chat.

    Home of the free, land of the overweight and mentally unstable!
    I can't judge much though, I fall into the 'unstable' category.

    I hope your visit goes well Ryujin!

    See if you can find a Golden Corral restaurant once you're settled. Their slogan is "Best Buffet in the USA" and you know what, it's actually fairly accurate.

    As a Canadian, I apologize for any issues you'll have with our weird southern cousin.
    And as a human being, I hope you get out of there before the election.

    Not to sound like a jerk, i do still want the answer on the avali packs taking in pack 'orphans'
    specifically ryuujins opinion on it.

    If you want a different answer, you need to ask something more specific. Avali packs do take in 'orphaned' Avali and form bonds with them, but that without the pack memes and subtle body language learned by lifelong association with packmates, they aren't quite as natural a part of the group. That is the answer to your question, as worded; but the context of how you continue to ask implies that you are seeking some kind of additional information about the subject. If the above answer does not provide the information you seek, then you need to ask in a way that provides further direction to your inquiry.

    The desire to get Ryuujin's official response on the matter is understandable, but also consider that it's not fair to him to be expected to personally attend to every question anyone asks. Especially in an instance like this, where the answer is posted in the wiki and has been repeated now by a handful of others.

    Sorry... it's more focused on if the pack will try to if anything to help the 'orphan' feel welcome? will they just acknowledged them being a part of the pack due to that a loner couldn't survive, or try to treat them like a real packmate.? To what extent will they do this?
    Not meaning to be rude but is this what you mean by specific? you say form bonds but that is still pretty broad even if it is somewhat more specific.

    It's probably something that would be handled on a case by case basis. Different tribes might also have policies regarding integration.

    To what extent will humans go to make an adopted child feel like part of the family? Generally quite far--but it depends on the family.

    It's difficult to make universal statements of behavior when talking about billions of individuals. I'd say the answer is "as far as you want your characters to go."
    I agree.

    I plan on doing the responsible thing and voting for the lesser evil.

    For some reason I imagine a custom intro mission where a Avali-filled planet (not Avalon, I'm not going hardcore) has some sort of Protectorate embassy and the planet gets destroyed became some Avali cultists summoned the Ruin/Cthulhu/any tentacled planet water.

    A protectorate embassy? Nah. The other races wouldn't be able to stand being on an Avali planet. The cold, the stench. Also, it's already been stated that most of the other races think the Avali are weird.
