And Mari NEEDS to feel them. Even if she does start writing flowery poetry and planning a wedding after her first time, remember, she's got Dora and Faye, ready to kick all of the living (and 80-90% of the dead) shit out of her first time if that guy starts treating her like an unwanted dog. She needs to get screwed, then possibly screwed over, so she can move on.

Um. If you're a shy, sensitive, withdrawn girl like Marigold, and you sleep with someone who's your first time, and you fall hard for them (as it seems almost certain Marigold would do, given her reactions here), and then they immediately screw you over... you don't move on. That is not what happens. Much more likely you turn into Faye 2.0, that is, you withdraw even more into yourself and decide to never get involved with anyone ever again.
Or else you become even more insecure, give up on yourself, and start sleeping with anyone and everyone who'll have you, to either make yourself feel wanted in any way you can, or to make that first time seem less important.
None of those options are particularly great or healthy.
Ferahgo the Assassin:
Damnit, every interaction between these two has been making me cringe lately. I love them both when they're with other people, but together I'm not sure which I dislike more.

Recall that this was first said by a girl about to have sex with him...has Sven been breaking the fourth wall?
(with his dick?)

Well he has definitely got the reach with his 8 and half inches.

Or at least you certainly shouldn't try. Marigold seems to be pulling out all the stops. That dress is short, at least in the last two panels. Dora's skirt for her "meet Dad" moment was even shorter, but that's Dora. Marigold doesn't seem the type.

Indeed. Marigold shows her desperation and lack of experience if she thinks getting used by someone is going to make her feel better about herself. And not just because she's female, and shy and sensitive, but because she's human (yes, I know exceptions exist. I'm talking in general).
I also noticed her dress is quite short, and it must be a really well chosen, flattering one too because she hardly looks bigger than the likes of Raven and Penelope in it. I know Jeph tends to variate the way he draws his girls weight-wise, it's just something I noticed.
