I don’t know what they’d be but they’d have to be little hints that don’t distract from the lives of other parafolk in your household too much. Maybe a child does something and a parent has a vague buff that says “Wondering about [child’s name]…” There would be little clues and incidents like that tell the attentive player what’s happening.
I can see that others are worried that this playstyle isn’t a fit for them, and tbh I had the same thought. This feature shouldn’t be all-consuming for the player, but that’s not to say it shouldn’t be there at all. I think we need to strike a balance so that other goals can be achieved in gameplay at the same time as your LGBTQ+ para is coming out. I was cautious about having a “being different” buff largely because I think my parachild should have that time in their life to just be a kid.
