I'd forgotten about that.  I'd say it was an early indicator of her own attraction to Sven.  Related to that, I recall that she once told Sven off about (what she saw as) his habit of sleeping around.  Then, Sven told her in a later strip that he intended to change his ways.  More reasons to think that there's potential for something deeper to develop between Sven and Faye than merely "friends with benefits".

HEY GUYS, DID YOU KNOW ABOUT MY FICTIONAL SEXY FANTASIES?

LET ME UPDATE YOU ON MY ERECTIONS.

I totally wish QC had Slashdot-style post moderation. Because that post deserves +5, Funny. :lol:

Mallli_kite:
Dora represents herself as all sweetness and stability?  Where?  I've only seen her worrying about her own insecurities.  I've yet to see her say "Hey, look, I'm the stable one here!"

I think my point was missed or perhaps deliberately skipped over -- both Dora and Faye (and Sven and Marten and Steve and Penelope and do I need to mention Hannelore?) have BUCKETS of issues they are hauling around.  None of them are all good -- and none are all bad.  This is what makes them interesting.  I don't think any of them are particularly "better" or "Worse" than each other (whatever those two terms can be construed to mean).  They are COMPLEX.  That's a good reason to be interested them.  If they were really as flat, single issued, and insipid as is occasionally argued here, they wouldn't be worth the time to think about them, much less discuss them.  They'd be BORING.

Did anyone think to bleach this forum?  I'm thinking a good Cloroxing is necessary, especially after all that sticky red typeface up there... :-P

Lost Coastlines:
Not as much anymore but earlier in the comic there were a few times she would say she is too nice for her own good, or self-sacrificing.  As for stability, it's more in how she plays herself off Faye.  It's also apparent in how she doesn't reflect and address her insecurities after fights with Marten or her blowing up at Faye over Sven.  She might not say it (like Faye says she's a bitch and has issues), but she definitely portrays herself as the nice and normal one.
