Dora reaction theories
Blackcat Moebius:
Here's a theory to toss out for discussion:
When Dora finds out about Faye/Sven, she may be jealous. Of Sven.
She has said that one of her insecurities was/is being less popular than Sven. She didn't say 'less popular with girls,' but that could easily be part of it.
She recently confirmed that she is attracted to girls.
And she's been flirting with Faye for a long time. (the first of many instances.... also note Jeph's comment in the newspost.)
Her reaction might end up being, 'dammit, he stole another one!'
An extrapolation of the same idea (although I think this one isn't very likely, only possible):
Dora seems awfully hung up on the notion that she was/is Marten's second choice.
Maybe she's projecting hidden feelings of her own onto Marten? Maybe Marten was/is Dora's second choice... with her first choice being Faye?
Muskrat121:
Aside from being openly bi, I can't really think of any situations where Dora has shown a direct open attraction to Faye. There may be something, but I just can't remember it. Also, her moves on Marten were a little to direct and quick to suggest that he would be the second choice. I get the feeling that Dora wants to be in a relationship with a man, but also likes fooling around with girls. Kind of like my girlfriend :wink:
Still, interesting theory though. Made me stop and think.
I've been doing a lot of thinking on how Dora/Marten will react and I keep flip floping on ideas. I think I'm just going to sit back and wait for things to unfold. Then probably get mad because it won't go the way I wanted/expected it to. :-P
...hopefully I won't be waiting too long...
Darcy:
Wow. That's a really interesting theory. It has potential to be true too.
And maybe Dora's moves on Marten were direct and quick because she already knew that she wouldn't be able to have Faye. I don't know. Just another way to look at it.
LadyFirelyght:
I think that maybe you're thinking this through a little too much... But then again, maybe you're right on the money. Time will tell, I suppose.
Dora seems like she really really cares about Marten, even more so than Faye. Friendship-wise, I mean. Somehow I doubt he was a second choice.

I suppose you could say she's 'just kidding around' in any of these... but you could say that about all the times she flirted with Marten, too.

I was bored at work. 8-)

Yeah, it's unlikely. But if Jeph does go this way, I get to yell 'CALLED IT!' :laugh:

She might be equally attracted to either....
or maybe she's hoping for both. (In that last panel, she looks genuinely disappointed).
