Characters who have "Personality transplants"...

<< < (5/10) > >>

Neko_Ali:
I would also point out that Faye needs Hannelore as much as vice versa. In dealing with her alcohol problems and trying to deal with other issues in her life she is going to need someone who cares for her, can be there for her and isn't going to put up with her shit when she t tries to say, duck out of support group meetings. And when you consider that her circle of friends, which was never very big, has been seriously cut because of being fired, all she really has is Hanners and Marten. Marten cares, certainly. But he has his job, and he has Claire. Plus presumably he still practices his music. He will be there for Faye when he can, but not as much as she's likely to need. Where as Hanners has a lot of free time. She may work part time at CoD, but that's for social interaction, not because she needs to. As for the last.. This is Marten. While he occasionally shows signs of a spine, he is normally pretty wishy washy and tends more towards sarcastic comments rather than hefting a crowbar when Faye needs it.

mikmaxs:
Has nobody mentioned Momo yet? Her personality seems like it changed pretty noticeably during/after her chassis upgrade. It's not an entirely new character, but whereas before she felt a lot more comical, an Anime character with a stubbornly helpful attitude, who spent most of her non-Marigold time with Pintsize and Winslow, she now has a far less silly character. No anime humor, and she spends no time in-comic with the AnthroPCs. A few other minor or subtle differences.

NOT THAT I'M COMPLAINING. Her new character is a lot more interesting. Just very different.

Is it cold in here?:
Carbon-based people sometimes have personality changes after plastic surgery.

ReindeerFlotilla:
I'd argue that Momo changed rather a lot before the personality upgrade. She started as just another anthro-pc when all of the APCs were basically Pintsize.

As Marigold's character developed, Momo came to be her conscience. Thematically, that relationship became the inverse of the Marten/Pintsize dynamic.

She lost some Chibi-silly elements with the upgrade, but her personality seems to have remained stable relative to who she had become before that arc.

I'd also chime in on the OP to say while Steve's changed, he hasn't really Flanderized. As pointed out, he's got less to do as a 3rd tier character, but his expression of irritation at Sven "I just finished with Marten" 2752 speaks to him still having an inner life, even if we're not going to get to see it much.

Is it cold in here?:
Welcome back.

That's a good point about Momo. Her turning into a change agent for Marigold happened well before the chassis upgrade. She started out unusually compassionate and well-behaved by AnthroPC standards but there was still visible growth, perhaps as she figured out what Marigold needed.
