Give unique on-page flavor text for wolves

I LOVE the new relationship flavor text you can view when visiting a wolf's page. It's had me manually feeding each wolf in an attempt to see all of them. However, I did quickly become disappointed in one fact: It seems the text is the same pool no matter what. I think that should be changed, both because it leads to certain encounters not making sense and because it would just make things feel more unique.
I think wolves should have a secondary pool of flavor text they can pool on based on:
Their role
- hunters can mention their most recent hunt, how they found a good place they want to try out, complain about failed hunts or aching bones, ext.
- Scout can mentions finding new places or suspicious scents, complain about their job having too much walking
- herbalists can discuss herbert, plants, and potential illnesses in the pack.
- Pupsitter could be juggling puppies and mentors praising or whining about their newest class
- Breeding males could ask about their next partner or mention something about their pups
- Traveling wolves could mention their journeys, ask when they're going to leave again, or overall just mention their nomadic freespirit personality
Their age. This one especially got me after getting this message from a newborn puppy. Wouldn't it make more sense for newborn puppies to mention how cute they are or how fiesty they seem to be with their siblings, not them watching your lead and bringing them gifts?
New Puppy stops for a chat but then admits that they have been observing you carefully lately and think they have found something that may help you in your everyday tasks. You didn't expect to receive anything from New Puppy, but they insist when you hesitate to take the gift.+1 to Relationship Gained 1x Weasel Carcass!
Reliable
- Young puppies can have flavor text about discovering the world and their personalities really starting to shine through
- Puppies can have normal bouncy and hyper puppy texf
- Adolescents can mention their training or how they're growing into fine members of the pack
- Old wolves in the 'death roll' period could mention them slowing down, still trying to act spry, or other things about it being close to their time
If they are sick or not. Again, I had a wolf dying of a heatstroke bring my lead a weasel. They should be whining, exaggerating their symptoms, or trying to hide their illness.
Lead wolf's pairbond. It would just be cute to have uniquely text with your mate.
Frozen wolves. Could be cool to have grand-pawesque flavor text with these immortal wolves acting wise and elderly.
Pregnant or nursing wolves. Discussing their future children or current children.
Lead wolf's best friend or worst enemy
I think it could also be cool to have a small pool of biome-related and perhaps even seasonal or weather-related quotes you could encounter. Such as jabs at how hot the desert is or how humid the rainforest is.
Any more ideas? Leave them below!

Yes! I would love this! I liked the new update with socialization but I stopped once my young puppy was already a hunter and doing adult wolf stuff while still being a baby

This sounds like an interesting expansion of the current system. While not really game-changing, it could be fun. Support. :)

Support!! I love the flavor text so much, as it really adds to making my pack feel like a pack and not a bunch of static wolf pics, so any more additions or depth added to it is cool in my book

I love flavor text but I would consider this low priority over other things such as your bug post for example.
