My niece cosplayed as her at Anime North this year ...
If you web search you might be lucky enough to find a pic - She is the very short, very cute, one with the costume complete with all the accessory bits sans onion only because I forgot to bring it [doh]

Miku is a pretty popular choice for young girls to dress up as, so there's probably only a couple thousand pictures to sift through...  :-\

That's why I put "friends" in quotes. I don't think she actually dislikes any of them - even Faye. She's not that type of person. And she has been made to feel welcome in their "inner circle". But she doesn't spend time with anyone but those select few.

Now, there is absolutely nothing wrong with cosplay or sexy roleplay of a character with a different body type than one's own. A big part of cosplay and roleplay for many people is getting out of your own head and playing with the idea of being somebody else. But I do find it fascinating to see what kinds of characters people chose to play. Why Hatsune? She's rail-thin and has no character to speak of. I'd love to know what it is that makes Marigold look at her and think "that's someone sexy I'd want to dress up as in bed". Is it a body type she finds sexy? A type she thinks Dale would find sexy? Is it because Hatsune's lack of a defined character lets Marigold project whatever traits she wants onto her? I'd love to be able to ask her.

Hmmm......
It could be a case of tabula rosa. That's the generally accepted reason as to why so many teen and tween girls were all "I'm Bella" in regards to the Twilight books.

If Pintsize’s chassis truly looks that way the military should’ve commissioned more.  A horde of those would be too disturbing to fight

BenRG:
I'm sort of wondering if Pintsize really is responsible for Bubbles' altered perceptions. He's never shown any interest in having more humanoid-seeming features (beyond opposable thumbs - he's always been big on having thumbs), I would have thought that any altered perceptions filter created by him would make Faye sparkle whenever she poses just right or make the AI automatically edit out humans clothing or something similar!

Either way, it's good that Pintsize is where he is because he's going to need Faye's help to be de-cubed and restored to something resembling his normal shape!
