What is Marigold's fundamental character?

I'm pretty sure Jeph's said he won't do pregnancy. Though whether that was because of the reaction to the C-A-D story, I don't know.

I don't think QCfan wants reminding of that...
Mr. Doctor:
I really don't get how Mari has excuses for her actions while Faye doesn't. It's either both or no one in this case. Quite a double standard to me.
I highly doubt that something has happened to Mari that is in the same level as Faye's tragedy. Not that it should matter anyway, hell no... You are supposed to trust and be nice with the world and just forget that your father just killed himself in front of you. It's just that easy.
Being introverted is just way more complicated.

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

This is exactly my point. You see how others have the same reaction to you that you had to me when you say this about Faye.
But jwhouk's right. I keep stirring the pot, trying to keep it from burning, and it turns out I'm stirring a hornet's nest instead. I'm not talking about you in this analogy, but rather all those other forumites buzzing around this.
I don't want to disengage from you completely - you're clearly a hurt person, and that ... well, that hurts. But there comes a point in time when one person keeps shutting the door, and the person standing on the other side just has to give up and goes home. I don't want to, but it's clearly starting to be counterproductive.
My apologies to you and the rest of the forum. I didn't mean to seem to be hounding you. I'll let it rest, for now.
Goodnight, Irene.

THANK YOU.
I identify with Faye...not myself specifically but friends of mine. I have had friends who have had hard lives, or tragic instances in their lives, who end up being a little...prickly. I'm not saying that they're always nice, but friends stick by each other even if they sometimes say or do things that can be interpreted as mean, especially if you know that they may have a reason (justified or not) to act that way. I wouldn't call Marigold a "pathetic, weird, smelly loser" and just the same way, Faye shouldn't be called a "bitch".
This is one of the best things about reading QC...the characters are complex people with rich histories and contradictions in their personalities, just like real people. I don't think I have a single friend who hasn't done something "bitchy" or "jerky" at some point...but my point is that no one is strictly "good" or "evil" in the real world.
Marigold is a complex person, and so is Faye. I enjoy reading both of them for (very) different reasons, but let's not pretend that they both don't have good and bad qualities.
