So how come Chen doesn't run away from Ran and strike off on her own? It seems like she'll be forever reduced to the status of a pet if she stays with Ran.

>> No.1258421

Because she has the intelligence of a young child.

>> No.1258427

Chen will become Yukari eventually.

Strike that statement, she will defeat Yukari.

>> No.1258438

What does she need to do that would require her to strike off on her own? Chilling with the Yakumos seems like an alright lifestyle.

>> No.1258440

>>1258438

Because her current status demeans her as a sentient being.

You get me a job where all I have to do most of the time is eat fish and lie around and I'll take it.

How does living with your family demean her as a sentient being? Keep in mind that she's the youkai equivalent of like 8 years old.

because she likes Ran
because for a youkai, she is just a kid
because she is a pet.

Because Ran was hand selected to be the personal handmaid/servant/chief-of-staff of arguably the most powerful/important person in Gensokyo. It is both an honor and a privilege, and Ran is a serious type.
Same with Chen, she's young but dutiful. Her honor is one step down, and she hasn't earned the right to the family name of Yakumo yet. While I never want to see Chen grow up it would be quite touching to see Yukari give her the family name when she reached adulthood.

(Hm, I wonder where our cat went off to?
It's such a pain when she just suddenly disappears like that.)

properly. Without any bugs.)

Compare Ran and Chen to other animal/beast youkai like Mystia and Wriggle.
That's why they're with Yukari.
