...And within a few weeks of that strip, we had the "Sven The Douchebag" arc.
This is why I take that look in today's last panel with trepidation. SOMEone in this strip is about to get dumped on by an ocean of fecal matter that no dick-broom can sweep away.

OH MY GOD MARTEN'S SIGHS ARE PROPHETIC.
Ok it may be a little early to draw that conclusion :lol:
raoullefere:
Marten may be troubled, and Sven may have something else to add to his blue funk, but Faye is most likely to freak out in the morning when she realizes, well, whatever it is she thinks tonight means by then.
Someone pointed out (more or less) that Faye's headpat was her 'revenge' on Marten for hooking up with Dora. God, I hope not, since that would make her the pettiest, least self-aware shit on the planet. I do think Faye's trying to tell herself it wouldn't have worked between Marten and her, constructing one of those fictions we so love to create after the fact to make ourselves feel better. The more I think about it, though, the more I wonder what right she has to give a dismissive head-pat*. It wasn't Marten who called things to a halt, nor who would not 'allow' him to wait for her, nor who strung him along all that time before. Maybe she couldn't, maybe she wouldn't, but either way, Faye's the one who didn't give them a chance.
The more I think about it, the less Marten's look means the thrill is gone and the more it means he regrets what he missed, even if it's through no fault of his own. Of course, Dora has no way of knowing, but it is too bad she's still sleep-deprived. It may be nothing, but it may be she could've headed off a wagonload of trouble just then with a different response. Though, I have to admit, it was candid and not unexpected from a fan of Opeth.

BOY am I glad someone mentioned this. What are they sleeping on, stolen airline pillows?
--- End quote ---
Maybe they're using those buckwheat pillows that were being sold on T.V. and at various fine retail outlets. "Mt. Fuji" or somesuch.
*May not be, but it surely seems like it.

Cue bitchin' wailin' mouth-organ riff!

It didn't look like a head-pat to me, the motion lines imply rubbing, not patting. SHE WAS MUSSING HIS HAIR, IT MEANS THEY ARE IN LUVE AND WILL MAKE LOTS OF BABBIES!

I sure as hell hope so.
