Marnie-Wrench
🕑 Added 2016-09-23 01:19:25 +0000 UTC Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand here's the "monkey-wrench" version of the commission. Alternate version created with permission.Let's try to explain the in-joke; in the comments, someone accused Marnie of being a sneaky, slutty bunny, who would throw a monkey-wrench into everyone's happiness.
I was SO boggled by the out of left-field accusation I sputtered "WHAT monkey-wrench/sneaky intentions?! Is she going to spontaneously grow a penis and start aggressively seducing the farmer's daughter, much to the dismay of the entire farm-stead? Because that's the only way I could see her being actively, intentionally disruptive... and since when is she a rabbit?!"
Honestly, she wouldn't have needed to sprout an extra limb to start the out-of-character monkey-wrench but I wanted to couple the completely-off personality attributed to her by the comment with a physical aspect that she doesn't possess. Actual Marnie doesn't have under-handed intentions and she doesn't have a penis either.
Though if she did, I don't think it would actually change much of anything in the story.
Also I was unhappy that they slut-shamed her. Marnie is classy, sex-positive, and has no qualms about having sex... and somehow that makes her a lesser person?
Madame Marnie Gilbert is a petite*, savvy business woman who is in her 30th year of her career in the Hospitality Industry. Starting out in hotels, she jumped at the chance to open her own business upon coming into some money, and now runs the "Hill and Vale Inn & Spa", which doubles, openly, as a brothel (legal on Chakona, even though unlicensed ones exist).
She is a fair and dedicated employer who is diligent in ensuring the comfort, safety and health of her employees. She makes sure her staff want to work there, ensures their boundaries are clear and respected, and will even step up to the plate (as it were) on high-demand days if they find themselves understaffed, and if any if the customers don't mind having a mature encounter (and some certainly do).
She is practical and straight-forward, tactful, without beating-around-the-bush, a good communicator (years of practice no doubt).
She keeps a modest home, she does her own cooking and cleaning, and relishes the chance to cook for friends; a rare occassion due to her career - she doens't tend to have time to socialise non-sexually with non-customers.
She is currently courting a handsome young farmer, who is not ruffled by her business or her involvement in it, and is polite, even tempered as well as gentle. She enjoys talking business, business/life philosophies and general life things with him.
*Marnie is definitely on the short side, she could be mistakenly called a wallaby by some.
Marnie is currently part of Seth Triggs' comic "Reasons", though her first, if brief, appearance was in Chapter 10 of "Year's End", a spin-off of his over-arcing "Shir Nice-Whisperer" Chakona Universe comic series.
