They may not stay that way, and they don’t have to be friends.A question asked of the characters (and made much more explicit in AW:BO) is what will you make of this broken world. Along with the Ungiven Future possibilities, it has the door open for your struggles meaning something. But ya gonna struggle a lot to get anywhere, with the world and each other.I think kind of like how Baker was a bit surprised that most games of DITV ended with the Dogs blowing holes in each other over doctrine, there's not a core expectation that the game will end with the characters inherently at odds. But the scarcity and competing interests leave that an open question (and honestly, the player moves are always asking that question of each other: "is this a charged situation? does anybody involved see it as such? who will raise or fold when you Go Aggro? Are you acting under fire here?").</blockquote>
