Yeah, as one of your advertisers states, "Geeks make the best lovers." Marigold would be loyal, grateful, generous to Angus, while Faye would give him grief and prickly problems.

How do you two define stable? She's got no job, no friends*, she lives off her parent's money, doesn't really care about her personal apperance, live(d) in a pig sty (which even a pig would have turn it's nose up at ) and she sits in her room all day playing World of Warcraft. Not that I'm saying Faye is necessarily better, but at least Faye's making an effort to work through her problems. Marigold wallows in self-pity and makes little effort to improve herself. And for anyone who thinks that would change instantly if she were to get into a relationship - no, it wouldn't.
Edit: *Granted, until recently.

Maybe the point of the strip in question was to ask the reader to try & figure out what the 'Fuck!' is actually about. Maybe Marten stubbed his toe.

I seriously doubt that, I thought it was pretty obvious that it was Faye yelling "FUCK!" A map of the apartment complex was not needed. Being that Dora asked Faye a question and the next step in a dialog would be her answer/reaction. Then again I suppose I am a story teller and understand that aspect of a story.
--- Quote ---If that is Faye yelling 'Fuck!", I still have a lot of questions. Does Faye reciprocate Angus's feelings? [if not before, is this her admitting to do so now?] Is she upset because she left so that her friend Marigold could have some drunken alone-time with a boy she's not all that interested in, but now realizes that he's sure to refuse Marigold's advances and therefore, Faye herself is a party to Marigold's embarrassment and shame at being denied?

I agree I have a lot of questions about it too. I quite fancy that she likes Angus, she is attracted to him and lately she seems to light up when he comes to the coffee shop, not untilke when Marty did/does. and I agree with the general consensus here, I have a feeling we will have to wait until next week to find out :-P

I'm just waiting for Hannelore to go over to Angus' place to talk to Marigold about some yaoi or some such. She'll find them sleeping together, a la Sven/Faye, she'll get freaked out, write them a friendly note and make them some pancakes.

Apparently, a lot of you are fearing a Luke/Leia moment - and well you should. But if you're Leia, at least you can have Han afters.

I know that would be the weirdest thing ever for me to realize... <_< >_> --_--
Also, Worry Hat, now with 42% less sound proofing!

Well, it seems I gave Faye too much credit for personal growth by thinking she had considered Marigold's feelings. Oh well. And it took me a moment to figure out who was yelling "FFFUCK!" (which is the new "AUGH!") since I couldn't remember where the other apartments were in relation to Hanners', but once I thought about it, it being Faye made the most sense. Plus, with jwhouk's recap of Marten and Faye's move-in way back, it pretty much has to be Faye yelling it. So drunk Faye is impulsive and dumb (as previously established) but not maudlin. Got it. Funny how what she just did is essentially the opposite of what she did, drunk, with Sven. Yay progress?
I can already picture tomorrow's comic in my head. Oh, it won't happen the way I think it will (it never does!), but it would involve Angus waking up, smiling, turning to the lady in bed with him, being shocked to see that it's Marigold instead of Faye, and meanwhile in the last panels, a bleary-eyed Hannelore is stacking cards in the morning light . . . until a giant "FFFUCK!" from next door (or above?) knocks them down again.

Is it ever stated that Marigold lives in the same building? It would make sense, since that would make it easier for Momo to visit Winslow, but it's not necessarily the case.
