What is Marigold's fundamental character?

The same can be said for Marigold. There's no excuse for shutting herself off from the rest of the world.
You can't have it both ways. Mari's growing, developing, getting better with help from her friends (yes, that includes Angus).
Faye's growing, developing, getting better with help from her friends (and some therapy).
Dora might get better, it's too soon to tell. Sven's making an attempt, again, too soon to tell. Hannelore - well, that one's obvious. The only main (human) character who hasn't changed since the strips inception is Marten, and he was recently called out on it.
Will they all meet somewhere in the middle as well balanced, happy people?
:roll: Oh please. Where's the entertainment in that?

In the Faye's character thread (not the Faye's tits one), I want you to take some of the examples that I and others have offered you in the last few weeks, and analyze them. Show us how she's a mean, nasty person motivated only by self interest and hate. Cite your sources. Link to the comics. Explain how what she did was awful and irredeemable.
You may actually sway a few people. But I personally think you're going to get to know Faye a lot better in the course of this challenge. It may become the equivalent of walking a mile in her shoes.
At least, that's my opinion. YMMV!

I agree with Carl-E, and in the Faye's Character thread it wouldn't be off topic and it wouldn't be moderator fuel as long as you back up your assertions with reasonable citations from the story.
I could just as easily argue that Marigold should just get over her past, that her self image/they way people might have treated her does not excuse her actions at all.
But I don't....
mostly because I don't believe those things. But That is how you sound when you talk about Faye.
You have so much empathy for Marigold, there might be other people on here who identify with Faye that strongly, yet you don't extend them the same courtesy that has been given to you. The chance to have their opinion fairly heard the way yours have been.

Oh really?
You want them in alphabetical order, or are you not too picky?

Well, they could always assemble a set of havoc-wreaking rug-monkeys who (after undoing the balancing-out of her parents) start developing highly interesting and hilariously disturbing problems of their own, although I have to admit, this is a bit of a far-fetched storyline. :angel:
