In the winter, Marie will refer to Yukiko as "Red Girl," while in the summer she'll call her "Black Girl." What Yukiko picks will also change. During Rank 3, the dialogue will change depending on what season it is.She is cranky, sarcastic, irritable, very foul-mouthed and often prone to mood. During Rank 1, Marie makes a reference to Hiimdaisy/Gigi D.G.'s Persona 4 comics by saying "Fsteak," offering it as an alternate shortening of "beefsteak." Despite the shout out, the line is a legitimate, more literal translation of the original Japanese dialogue in which Marie comments that "bifuteki" should be called "fusuteki." When Marie is first met, she seems to be a very cold and antisocial individual."Memories so fun, I won't care about the past anymore." Once the protagonist reaches Magatsu Inaba, Marie will be available on every day until December 23rd. In general, Marie is usually available on Wednesdays, Saturdays, Sundays and holidays.Rank 1 can also be initiated on rainy days.Completing her Social Link also unlocks additional story events that occur after the defeat of Adachi and Ameno-sagiri. Marie gives the protagonist an Old Bamboo Comb when the Social Link is maxed, which enables the fusion of Kaguya. As the deadline for defeating Adachi and Ameno-sagiri is December 24th, this gives the player a deadline to complete Marie's Social Link by December 23rd. Once the protagonist defeats Tohru Adachi and Ameno-sagiri in Magatsu Inaba, the Social Link can no longer be progressed. The Social Link cannot be progressed beyond Rank 4 until July 24th.
If the protagonist enters the Velvet Room, Marie won't be present outside of the Velvet Room if he leaves afterwards but he may still spend time with Marie if the player is in the Velvet Room, chooses "Check on Dwellers" and then "Listen to Marie's request". After that, the player can only spend time with Marie to progress her Social Link on days where she can be seen outside the Velvet Room.
When initiating the Social Link though, the player needs to enter the Velvet Room, choose "Check on Dwellers" and then "Listen to Marie's request". She is found outside of the Velvet Room entrance in the Central Shopping District during the day when the protagonist is not in the middle of an investigation. The protagonist can start Marie's Social Link as early as April 18th. This article covers information about the Aeon Arcana Social Link, Marie, including events featured in Persona 4 Golden.
