Carrying action

So, I already know Giants can do this, but wouldn't it be amazing if Elves and Humans had a type of carry ability for themselves? Like lets say.. A 17 year old character can carry a 10 year old character in the form of a piggy back ride. It would be beneficial for when a person needs to go AFK and would like their friend to carry them to the destination, I know there are pets, but wouldn't it be cute if it would be this way instead? It can be a form of action given through a Valentine's day or even gachapon!

    Similar to how the commerce or William partner rides on the player's back? Yeah, that's a cute idea!

    Sure, you could also make the animations funny, like an elf carrying someone else being heavily pushed down from the weight they can barely support and struggling to not drop to the ground while moving at normal speeds. Kinda like the sweetheart flight from the doki doki rerun had some amusing same-sex changes.

    This would be a nice and modern addition, but knowing the KR devs, the Giant race might still remain the only race capable of giving shoulder rides.
    Unless the height and weight system is utilized to make a sub par Vindictus capability of lifting or princess carrying another player based on their weight, allowing either a smooth speed walking carry or slow and movement restricted struggle.

    We already have the Couples Flight action that people got from the Doki Dokki Island event. If anything I can see this being similar just with being stuck to the ground. I support this for those that don't have access to the Couples Flight action.

    I cannot see this done to be honest; what people are asking for is essentially a replica of the piggyback ride you can give commerce partners which, for all intents and purposes, is slower than just summoning a 2-person+ mount. If a partner is present with a mount, that makes this even more trivial and pointless.

    Yes, but what about those players that don't have a 2-person+ mount or just see the fun of having this action? It doesn't always have to be something that helps players if it's simply fun to have.

    The action is not made to travel faster or even add speed like partners do, It's simply for people to travel with an AFK friend, without the use of a pet. I don't exactly see how this is bad when in itself is a simple action to both create a more cutesy scene to the game, as well as bring more fun and purpose to the gaming mechanics.
