How can Marigold have a civil conversation while drunk? Or did the argument with Momo make her sober?
LeeC:
i think its a mix of being drunk and wanting to tell someone about how great a time she had. Momo is probably just trying to finish the instance for mari and by the look of it is fatigued from it and just wants to finish. After all she is doing this for Mari so she could go out. thats probably why she is trying to stay focused because she has never played before, only watched Marigold play.

Unless, like, it's a super crazy corset painstakingly designed to have separate moulded push-up cups built in, which would make it nigh impossible to actually put on, among other things.

Some do have cups built in: http://www.classiccorsets.com/item.asp?ProdID=2&ItemID=1057
Others follow the natural curve without flattening:

Huh. Welp that first one looks about as uncomfortable as I thought it might be if they ever made one. And as silly-looking. Obviously a modern take on corsets rather than Victorian though--and would have to be custom-sized for the cups to fit well. It also doesn't give nearly the amount of uplift/cleavage a real corset would... But now I guess I know they do exist.
The second corset you linked still "flattens." I did not that Edwardian/Victorian corsets provided a curve, and this one has a very extreme curve, but there's still no under-boob crease. The fabric doesn't fold all the way under, as it did with Marigold's and Faye's outfits.
The third and forth are only corsets up to the ribs, and then have basically a bra built on top... and provide no more cleavage-enhancement than a regular bra. I know that those exist, but I didn't think they'd have made Marigold anywhere near that surprised at her bustline. I assume she knows what her boobs look like in a padded bra.
Annnnnnnnyway.
JackFaerie:
Gotta say though: I watched the ustream for the first time today, and maaaaan, lots of admiration for Jeph's drawing. I draw too, but I could never do it that quick and clean and well on a tablet. Or that quick and neat in general. I remember I first noticed QC for its art, but it's been awhile since I took the time to look at just how much goes into it (and the progression from the first strips has always struck me as incredible).
Shadic:
Well, that's one way to get Marigold out into the social world more often.
