that's exactly what I was thinking of! (just couldn't remember how far back it was to reference)

Oh the main one who gets onto me about it reads a lot too. It was one of the things we bonded over when we first met.  She just thinks I need to "get out there" more or something along those lines. She's one of my best friends so she does it out of love and concern that I'm "hiding" behind my books or whatever. But, it grates on my very last nerve sometimes.

I should also clarify a bit, given how Marigold was acting, yeah, she might need to take a break and unplug a bit. But I think my other point does stand, if Hannelore had had another all nighter and was having trouble functioning due to lack of sleep and Dora, Marten or anyone else told her she was grounded from cleaning for three days she'd have a pretty severe reaction and the forum would likely vilify the person in question who said it. It also might help if anyone other than Hannelore ever tried dropping by, even if only just to say hello to Marigold or hang out with her, as it is she might be afraid of going out to hang out with them or do something because she might feel they are ambivalent about her company.

I totally get where you're coming from. And you're probably right, people probably would vilify someone if they did that to Hannelore because she has serious neuroses. I personally wouldn't, because it might be something that could help her in the long run. I think Hannelore is just trying to help Marigold be a little less of a shut-in, but you're right that no one else ever seems to stop by to say hi to her or hang out with her. The one time Faye went over there to chill with Marigold it was really just an excuse to see Angus. And I definitely get the whole being worried about going out of the way to try and hang out with people who may or may not want your company. I grew up a very shy kid, and while I've mostly gotten over it, sometimes picking up the phone to call someone I've never called before still scares the living daylights out of me, because I'll be afraid they won't wanna talk to me.

I just want to say that reading "Eel Handlings" creeped me the fuck out.

Oh good, I was worried I was alone on that front. I did think it was kind of sweet how Marigold told Momo that she liked her how she was. Though I also am a bit surprised that AnthroPCs could get jobs. I mean I guess it makes sense, and implies that they have at least some semblance of rights, but since they can be purchased I'm also seeing big abuse potential.
