jwhouk:
The only reason why I'd see Teh Dramas coming forth is that Dora is going into her own Panic/Stress mode over the shop. Sometimes people can do things out of character when they're stressing out over work. I, unfortunately, know this from personal experience.

I do not, however, think that it is something that will last beyond a few days (as with the Cosette incident - back before we knew her first name and her last name was still "Beauvais").

What intrigues me is what possibility Jeph has up his sleeve as a start of a story arc. I see a few of them:

* Dora actually leaves Marten for a while - where she'd go is beyond me, though.
* Faye leaves and goes to live with Angus - and Marigold. Hilarity ensues, but it doesn't quite work (and Momo tases Faye a few times).
* Marigold ends up going on a date with Dale after losing a PvP online with his character.
* Hannelore ends up going on a date with some unknown person.
* Cosette burns down the coffee shop.

Is it cold in here?:

Because it's fun?

You can get a degree in psychoanalyzing fictional characters.

I believe the word "ashcan" is a remnant from the time when folks heated their houses exclusively with stoves and fireplaces, and would thus need a fireproof container to dispose of potentially hot ashes. A cylindrical steel receptacle with a tight fitting lid would serve that purpose nicely. When not needed for ash duty, it could hold all manner of other contents, for instance, household refuse.

And before this thread becomes the Wikipedia article for waste receptacle, I'll just say that I wouldn't recommend using a modern plastic garbage container for fireplace duty.

As an aside on that, your local seed 'n feed should sell several vessels of different sizes of galvanized steel to fill this need. I personally keep a 4'x 2' oval for receiving incoming wood, and a nice 2' tall round for the outgoing ash.

My vote goes to #5 as Most Likely To Occur.

Carl-E:
