Is that what happened? Dayton broke up with Chup and broke his heart? That certainly explains the persistent bitterness Chup harbors for Dayton.
Ah, so more of the picture emerges, no? Chup no doubt regrets having rebuffed Mewa to pursue his crush on Dayton... only for Dayton to break his heart. Now Chup resents Dayton and wonders what sort of subway-fattie-sharing delights with Mewa he has passed up.
So let me get this straight: Mewa persues Chup; Chup says no (and causes Mewa to declare war, so to speak) because Chup's pining for Dayton. Dayton hears of Mewa and Chup and assumes there was something (Chup straying, maybe?) and dumps Chup, causing Chup to resent Dayton. Man, this has 'Lifetime Special' written all over it! JC, I think this writes itself!
Could make for an after school special. Or, at the very least, a Very Special Episode on a late '80s sitcom.
Ooh ooh, I know! I know! The viewer loves sympathizing with an empowered woman! Chup, Nova how do you feel about making the 'Chup' character in this special an amalgation of Chup and Shep as he transitions into a her, going from a very disagreeable him into a moderate and agreeable her?
Ok, drafting up a list of characters for WordForge: Teh Movie (If you don't make this list, don't cry yet -- I'm quickly doing this before running off to work, planning on adding to it later) FACTS HAVE BEEN ALTERED FOR LULZ Dayton: Spurned Chup. Wears wife beaters. Must always be right. Mewa: Loves jazz (on vinyl only). Spurned by Chup, harbors grudge. Subway incident. MF: IRA member kicked off of Bick's shortbus.

Async: Eloquent, Mormon Bible thumper. Loves seafood. Apostle: Hardline Christian Bible thumper trying to convert Tasvir, his arranged-marriage fiancée.

John Castle: Tabloid reporter. shooteR's nemesis. shooteR: News reporter. garamet: Slash fic writer. Old. More later
Tabloid reporter, huh? Well, that gives me plenty of leisure time, since the only tabloid story around here is the extremely infrequent Batboy sighting.
The reason you're shooteR's nemesis is because you actually write legit news when Batboy isn't around, writing better content than what the legit media wants to cover!
That's cause I'm not done with it! Have a little patience, this list is for those that don't make it in. Unless you don't. Then you're just not noteworthy.

Moonlights as a Chaos Theorist specializing in Climate. Chup: As noted several posts above -- A disagreeable bloke going through a sex change into a likable bird. Escaped the Projects. Mrs. Albert: Ob/gyn. Champions legalization of marijuana, leading to the state medical board to investigate her practice. Has an offer in Winnipeg. Knocked up by Albert. Jenee: A tour of duty in Iraq led to her believing and subscribing to left-wing conspiracy theories (in truth, it was probably too much History Channel). Knocked up by Albert. TKO: Mad scientist. Powers her lab with gymnasts in large hamster wheels. Only one to take Rick Deckard seriously. Techman: Rest in pieces. That guy high on bath salts was over the top, but you were avenged.
