Angua and Carrot

[Bouncy Castle]

Sex before marriage?

[One Man Bucket]

So what did he get up to with Minty then? It caused a lot of trouble...

That seemed to me to be a lot more about his species than the shamefulness of whatever they were engaged in. Anyway, I doubt Carrot slept with her since he'd have been a lot wiser to what was going on in Mrs Palm's establishment had he already had some "significant" interaction with females.

[Dotsie]

His first time with Angua was his first time ever, so no doing it with Minty.

It had definitely been an interesting night.
Although he was indeed simple, he wasn't stupid, and he'd always been aware of what might be called the mechanics.
...
This was probably not something he was going to write to his parents about. They almost certainly knew.

[Tonyblack]

If we assume that Minty was the same age as Carrot, then his advances might have been inappropriate, as it seems that humans are sexually mature a long time before dwarfs. Dwarfs are very long lived and I seem to remember that they aren't sexually mature until they are in their 40s (I think).

It's no wonder that Minty's parents were concerned and it's seems to have been the main reason that Carrot was sent away.

[One Man Bucket]

How did that slip my mind? Anyway, there's no might about it. Dwarfs are considered old enough to know the birds and the bees at 55 so his actions would've done a lot more than raise eyebrows. This suggests even more strongly he didn't do anything inappropriate but was suspected of being capable of doing so

[Tonyblack]

Yes, one can only imagine the meeting between Carrot's parents and Minty's.

[poohcarrot]

Actually, I think it was more to do with rascism. An obvious human trying to get fresh with a dwarf. You know what the drargs would have said.

[Tonyblack]

Or possibly even the Grags?

[One Man Bucket]

The Oggs having some dwarf in them and Casununda having avoided getting lynched by more conventional dwarfs suggest to me that interspecies romance isn't very high on their list of offences.

[Dotsie]

Yeah, but, Carrot? I'd have to think twice about allowing that! But I don't think Minty was all that keen anyway (can't remember why, don't have my book to hand).

[Tonyblack]

That's the impression that I got regarding Minty. Carrot was just being a pest.

[poohcarrot]

Or possibly even the Grags?

Drargs are the result of inter-breeding between Dregs and Grags.

[One Man Bucket]

Talking about grags. Do you reckon Bashful is going to become the model for grags from here on out since he's very close to the Low King. If we're sticking with the social commentary inherent to the Disc we're likely to see AM grags distancing themselves from Uberwald grags with a few radical popping up in AM ever now and then

You ain't gonna win trying to pursuade this lot that Carrot's a great character - most people don't like him.

The only people who do like him are me and Capt Creation. So that says it all.

I love Carrot. He's cool. Simple, but real smart...

[Maura:-D]

So that's a creationist, an atheist and a projectionist. What a shambles!

Do I hear another -ist? Anyone?

I'm a geophysicist and an anthropologist

I am a philanthropist!
