Carl-E:
That's a fair bit of action for one apartment...

Considering how Marigold is acting, I don't know if it's too much so much as not enough. Seriously, an epic over-the-top confession of feelings could hardly do anything to hurt matters at this point. May could even rig up a fan and dump sakura blossoms in front of it before locking them in the room, satisfying both the anime quotient and her desire to troll.
--- Quote from: Neko_Ali on 12 Aug 2013, 07:44 ---As far as Dale and Marigold go... They very much are having that social awkward/grade school crush going on where they express their feelings by picking on one another, then misinterpreting the signs. Dale and May just had a talk about that on the way over, but we can see Marigold does it too... Like with the hissing scene. After the diner she's feeling all bad and confused about how she feels, so she's going back to the old standard 'blame Dale and lash out at him'.

Hit the nail squarely on the head, right here.
As for the AnthroPC stuff, you have some very good points--the AIs we've seen do seem to be in a something of a position of privilege, except for May. Originally it was implied that Pintsize to some degree helps Marten with computer stuff/was his computer, which would act as a service they provide...while Marigold definitely uses a separate computer from Momo, maybe Momo does help out with the computing load? Acting as a sort of fully-sentient Siri, along with on-the-fly spellchecking, preventing Marigold from being tempted by gold farmers or the desire to tell off that asshole who stole her rare item, etc.

--- End quote ---
Ha! I can imagine the look on Angus' face already.
"Momo, why are you sitting in front of the door...? And why is the apartment shaking?"
"I have not been brave enough to check, but I think it will end up being a learning experience for Marigold either way."

"Well, my plan didn't work, let's try the convict's..."
Dale isn't really objecting yet, either.

She's reacted similarly to outlandish ideas at least once before, when Claire joked that Clinton got masturbation necrosis of the hand, with the same chin stroking. Come to think of it, that's also the closest anyone's come to acknowledging Claire's puns.

Just what I was thinking. In that situation, I would have expected her, with her protocal database, to save the situation by saying something like: "Ha,ha. No, what really happened?" It seems she gets distracted easily by practical details of outrageous suggestions.

Winslow is Hannelore's computer. He gets jealous when she uses another.

Heh. I imagine I'm not the only one here who'd find such a description all too fitting. 8-)
