--- Quote from: Is it cold in here? ---It's even more inappropriate than 415, but Dora is a free spirit.
--- End quote ---
Maybe inappropriate is too strong of a word (though I still think it is), but if anything, it's definitely inconsiderate. It's definitely rude, free spirit or not.
--- Quote from: connathan ---They must be best friends, right? Lighten up! If my best friend did that to me in the morning, I'd be a bit grumpy at first, yeah, due to sleepiness, but to be honest I'd find it pretty funny! I wouldn't think it was 'inappropriate' or 'encroaching on my privacy'!
--- End quote ---
Sorry, why must they be best friends? I wouldn't argue that they are friends, but if anyone in this comic is Faye's best friend, I'd say it's Marten. Also, I wouldn't find it funny if a friend of mine did that to me, especially first thing in the morning. For the most part I really appreciate my personal space. And just because you think it would funny doesn't mean that everyone would take it as such. Given Faye's history as well, and her comment to Dora in the last panel, I don't know that she finds it funny either.
--- Quote from: Tuitsuro ---Faye's perfectly capable of knocking Dora's block off if she gets too touchy, even when half-asleep, so I get the feeling it's just annoying her more than anything else.
--- End quote ---
Whether or not Faye is capable of that, it's still rude of Dora to behave as such, especially the day after she moves into the apartment. And if Dora's behavior is annoying now, I hope it gets better for Faye, not worse.
*shrug*
Tuitsuro:
Oh, I agree, her behaviour is immature. She's pushing boundaries and Faye's on the recieving end. But, like it or not, if Faye wants the behavior to stop, then she's going to have to stand up for herself and basically say 'Back off, bitch!', because otherwise Dora may well believe she's fine with it.
Think of it as a nature documentary. Right now you have two alpha-females effectively vying for power in the apartment; and Dora's asserting her dominance over Faye by going into her territory. If Faye doesn't defend her territory, then Dora has a new hunting ground. Faye will probably strike back at some point, and the territorial lines will keep shifting until either everything evens out, or someone gets eviscerated. Meanwhile, Marten's testicles continue to shrink from the spiking estrogen levels.
Moxie:
Hahaha, poor Marten!
Meanwhile, I like the alpha female comparison there. I guess that it really strikes me that Dora's pushing boundaries so soon. Like, does she think it's alright because Faye was so ok with her moving in?
Not denying that Faye has to stand up for herself either, but I sympathize with her because this is happening when she is not at all prepared and not really awake. It appeared to me that when she finally was alert and totally aware of what Dora was doing, she did at least speak up.
Is it cold in here?:
Faye's best friend is Marten. She said so in 1089.
Jeph said once that Faye was tolerating Dora's attentions because Dora's her boss, which puts a different complexion on things.
JD:
Dora is spooning Faye.
