It's none of our business and she doesn't exist anyway, so let's butt into her life!

raoullefere · « **Reply #1 on:** 06 Apr 2010, 22:02 »

Sounds like a plan.

Why in the name of the awesome Moog would having an affair with Sven help Marigold?

Kugai · « **Reply #2 on:** 06 Apr 2010, 22:37 »

Better if she had an affair with Tai.

Carl-E · « **Reply #3 on:** 06 Apr 2010, 22:41 »

I dunno about Marigold boinking Sven, but I'm guessing she's still a virgin - and a first experience may well help in a lot of ways.

It could hurt, too, but there seems to be a consensus that some pain is necessary for "character development". So maybe the hurt will help.

OK, I'll stop talking out my ass now. >PHBLTBTT<

Only if she doesn't bestow the moment with holy significance. Wanna make bets on her not doing that? Unless she's penetrated by 'the one'* first time out, we're talking going right back to River City.

What she needs is to socialize, socialize, socialize and, hopefully, get the idea that more than one person, or two, as the case may be, enjoys her company.

I don't think a pet is the best idea for her. Based on her lack of attention to cleanliness, not only would it probably die of neglect, but it'd probably give her and Angus a disease first. So, no pets for Marigold, an AnthroPC is more than enough. She doesn't really strike me as the animal loving type anyway.

For an affair with Sven to be good for her, Sven's newfound conscience would need to hold up, and Marigirl would have to know his history and emotionally accept that he was temporary (that's the hard part).

But River City is tons of fun! She can hang out at the footbridge playing ass-grab with the other kids, and maybe Anita can teach her how to twirl baton so she can be in the band, too! Lets all sing Shipoopi!!

Eh, you'd be surprised. My house is... I don't have ten-year-old boxes of foodlike substances laying around, but I don't exactly keep things particularly clean, either. However, I take good care of my kitty because I know that however annoying the cat is being or how sucky it is to have to clean the freakin' litterbox, having the cat around is worth it to my sanity.

Don't know which is more amusing, the comment, the avatar positioned beside it, or the idea of Marigold twirling batons, playing grab-ass, or dancing the 'Shipoopi' in the chorus. Although a few of those girls do seem to be built along Marigold's lines. (Not, not Buddy's partner) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K1iZarUHt04

vettechinohio · « **Reply #13 on:** 07 Apr 2010, 16:04 »

She'd be a natural at baton twirling! With all of her gaming experience her fingers must be fast, flexible and strong. And she's not opposed to getting costumed up, either. Think of her visit to the Horrible Revelation. I can see it now: Marigold parading down the street, strutting that baton, ~~pimples~~ glasses gleaming in the morning sun... ::sniffle:: +5 Self Esteem, Marigold! You GO, girl!

So far nobody has ever had a pet and an AnthroPC at the same time. Unless you count Dorten as a unified entity.

You give yourself too much credit. Thank Meredith Wilson, Robert Preston, and every high school director who ever thought it was a good idea to stage it!

My brother played the Lead in that in his Junior Year.

Carl-E · « **Reply #30 on:** 07 Apr 2010, 22:16 »

It was a small band. Only about a dozen people, no tuba (but we had a bari sax), one trombone, 2 trumpets, a clarinet, a flute and a piccolo, a few higher saxes, a piano, 2 percussionists, and that damn kid who blew the train whistle.

Oh yeah, and the auditorium didn't have a pit. We were in a gazebo center stage, in costume for the entire show.

akronnick · « **Reply #31 on:** 07 Apr 2010, 22:20 »

See, now, that don't make no sense, why would River City need Prof. Harold Hill if they already had a fully armed and operational town gazebo band?

Carl-E · « **Reply #32 on:** 07 Apr 2010, 22:25 »

I was not directing. Send all inquiries to Fr. Naumann, S.J., Canisius High School, Buffalo NY. I hear he's still alive...

akronnick · « **Reply #35 on:** 08 Apr 2010, 02:37 »

Oh I Get It!

The Gazebo Band is playing fifty years in the future, and the play that unfolds is their collective memory of when Prof. Hill (who never left River City and lived to a ripe old age) came to town and started the World Famous River City Boy's Band (which became a gazebo band when the members became too old to march.)

Carl-E · « **Reply #36 on:** 08 Apr 2010, 06:10 »

Hmmm - that would also explain why there's only one trombone player left alive...

You know those things are hazardous, and...

There can be only one!

Can the people who put "affair with Sven" ahead of "counseling" expand on their reasons for recommending it?

There's no apparent way to change the option about whether you can change votes, but I was sure I had it turned on in the first place.

jwhouk · « **Reply #45 on:** 09 Apr 2010, 17:26 »

Counseling would always be a good thing, especially for someone as socially awkward as Marigold.

The "affair with Sven" would just be funny.

Kugai · « **Reply #46 on:** 09 Apr 2010, 19:45 »

I still say she'd be better off having an affair with Tai.

raoullefere · « **Reply #47 on:** 09 Apr 2010, 20:44 »

Geez, Kugai—first Hanners, now Marigold. You'd think Tai was your unhitched stepsister or somesuch and ~~sponging off~~ living with you and the SO, and you were trying to get her hooked up and moved out.

Wait: That explains everything! Dashes off to tell Stephen Hawking

Only if someone were near Sven every moment with a laser sight centered on his crotch and a mic hooked to a microspeaker in Sven's ear, whispering: "Go on, Loverboy, cheat on her. Dump her. Just once, for me."
