I read the speaker in "Cut It" who says "I don't like the person I am. I haven't for a while. / But I think I can be someone better," as Marigold. Will would then be the one saying "No. There's nothing between us."

I read it that way because much of Marigold's recent development has been about exactly that insecurity about her sense of self, and the dialogue is superimposed on a montage of her past that shows her trying on several different identities (her appearance and style change a lot from picture to picture, culminating in Hanna cutting off her locks and a further change to a businesslady identity in subsequent stories). Insecurity about one's identity is a theme in Will's development, too (just like every major character in the comic), but it seems less emphasized (maybe because he "keeps it all to himself", as Larry says).

Or maybe I just failed to connect the dialogue with the silent scene in "Karaoke" because "Octopus Die" intruded between the two stories with some much-needed comic relief?

Is that who the speakers are in "Cut it" (Will & Eve)? I always thought it was Will and Marigold. Deliberately ambiguous?
