Now, we're left wondering if the cause of Marten's protrusion is an agitated, panicky Faye, or having just come away from sharing a bed with a possibly nekkid Dora. I'm hoping that it's the later, because the former is really, really twisted. Even a comic character doesn't need that kind of fetish.

Or maybe they just gaped unfortunately, just because it's showing...
Akin to getting new pants that pyramid whenever you sit down looking awkward.

--- Quote from: tinkerbell on 27 Aug 2010, 06:45 ---I think it really depends on the kind of pants he is wearing, perhaps he simply forgot to button up a button and there is no turgidity at all. I am not sure whether that is more or less embarrassing for a dude, to be seen with a boner at an awkward time or to be seen without one at all. Anyone care to weigh in on that?

I'm just gonna say that pretty much no matter what, getting accidentally seen with a raging boner by someone who you don't want to see said boner, is infinitely worse than the absence of the boner. But then surprise unwanted dick-reveals are embarassing, pretty much no matter what.
I'd say that he's probably not standing at attention, given that Faye didn't respond with screaming / beating / some other kind of abuse. Though on the other hand... he's got his arms around a girl he acknowledges that he finds damn hot, who he occasionally has sexy dreams about, who he until fairly recently had strong feelings for, and who is currently not wearing any pants as she curls up against him on a dark couch. I mean, yes, it's gross and inappropriate, but find me a guy who *wouldn't* get a little bit not-so-little in that situation. So while I suspect that given how things have turned out, no, he wasn't cracking a stiffy, but there's... potential.
I think that of greater significance is that pause and stammer on his part when Faye looks up at him. Boner or no, he's revealing SOMETHING that he probably wishes he hadn't. And it's not necessarily his penis.

Oh boxers, you win again! Damn ye and your baffling button-that-must-be-buttoned! :laugh: (Seriously though, why would someone not button that? Why wear them at all if you're just gonna poke out anyway?)
As to Marten having resurgent feelings for Faye . . . I dunno. I suppose it can't be ruled out, but my interpretation is that Marty's feeling some post-honeymoon-period doldrums with Dora (if indeed he's actually wondering how much they really have in common) but isn't wishing for something romantic with Faye. Granted, Marten and Faye hooking up at this point would hurt more people now that Faye's started dating someone she cares about -- I guess whether that happens depends on whether Jeph wants to send an angst-laden daisy-cutter through his characters at this point. Personally, I think Marten may have been wondering if Faye would even need him anymore, as a friend, an unasked question that was answered in today's trip in the emphatic affirmative. She needs a friend right now (panic attacks are no fun), and busting a move on her while she's that vulnerable would be a douche move, something Marten is well aware of and wouldn't do. He has his hapless moments, but is ultimately unselfish.
My fave of the tumblr alt endings is the first one. ^_^ For some reason, I wanted there to be a moray eel version, with the eel coming up and biting Faye's finger.
And since this song is now in my head because of earlier posts, behold as I share a link (no, it's not Toto, but it's very 80's): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZneyAp0viXk
You're welcome?

Yeah, maybe when you're 15. But I think that most mature males who genuinely care about the woman pouring her heart out to him would not be sporting a stiffy at that time. If it's inevitable that a man would, then shit, I've just lost some faith in the male sex.
