May and Momo.

I am fine if Angus never returns. There isn’t any real need for us to see him again, any more than there is to see Padma or Veronica’s friend who enjoys pleasuring men orally. Irrelevant.

These are, I believe separate issues since despite a small interaction Sven and May for the most part have had stories that ddidn't intersect way more than they did.
However, I will add that I actually am not a huge fan of May at all. I don't hate her or even dislike her and her stories are compelling to read. But her awful treatment of Winslow moving from a chassis that kept him essentially home-bound to one that allowed him to live a more engaging life has soured my impression of her, especially her non-apology to his "owner" rather than to him, acknowledging him as person.
I do feel for her plight surrounding her own body but even her chassis that was falling apart was in ways more serviceable that Winslow's and she acted like he was getting a frivolous upgrade due to wealth.
Her crass nature doesn't make her a bad person but after awhile it just gets annoying. I'm still invested in her story but she's not on my top list of wise characters or characters I love to see. I really like her interactions with Faye when she got her face redone. I'd like to see that side of her more, especially earning the money to get it done and less of her yelling at people and making dick jokes. She can still do those things of course but just my references.
Also, I'm not arguing for Sven + Momo. I'd like Sven to get his own arc, separate from what's been going on.

After giving this some thought, I don't understand how someone can be mean to Winslow. He is just so, so sweet and didn't mean any malice at all--he's not capable of it.
I guess I am more like May. But I don't think I could ever be mean to Winslow and make him feel bad. I would feel like shit doing so. At the same time I so understand how difficult it is for May.
I think the other part of it is that while May does have her best friend Dale, they won't ever be as close as Hanners and Winslow are because his first priority is Marigold. That's something that I can tell has been difficult for May. It's difficult when your best friend's partner has to come first.
It's difficult all around. I am like May in that I tend to push people away, which only makes things worse.
But yeah. I will say it. She was a total dick to Winslow and it's not okay. It also makes me see how I must sometimes come across to others. Inside my own head it's just. So. Unfair. But I'm being an asshole. Nobody is inside my head, so they don't see how hard things are for me, they just see a jerk.
Bubbles came to the rescue. :D I love absolutely everything about this.

Momo is a bit of that "Friendship is magic and wonderful" naive, giving everyone the benefit of the doubt. To her understanding everyone is nice until proven otherwise. She tries not to offend anyone, ever.
May doesn't care much about rules (although she keeps to them), and everyone is an idiot until proven otherwise. She is as blunt as Faye used to be punchy.
Momo and May are polar opposites, but in a way they complement each other. They understand each other's strengths and weaknesses, and if they would make a really decent team. May can say things Momo wouldn't dare say, and Momo can be friendly in a way May would never care to be.

May also sticks up for Momo and doesn’t let anyone treat her wrong.
BenRG:
I'd like for May to try to work out what Melon's 'deal' actually is; she drags poor Momo into the mess. The result is the three of them becoming sort-of-friends (the way Momo is sort-of-friends with May). Call it 'The Good, the Bad and the Unquantifiably Weird'!
