Nobody asks about Dora

<< < (8/11) > >>

Skewbrow:
Guess I'll be grasping at that straw.

It has a better chance of success than Marigold's idea of guilt-tripping Angus into making out with her.

hannahsaurusrex:
It's not really a secret that I really like Dora/Marten. In fact I was going to post fanart of them, but now it feels wrong. Last week was definitely a numbing and sad experience for me, but I still love everyone.

I would love for Marten to pursue Dora. It wouldn't get rid off all of her doubts, but it would certainly help.
But Marten has to evolve before I would be really happy about it.
He's become a secondary character in his own life. Before Dora, it was Faye, and lately it's been Dora, Faye or everyone who's not him who has had more priority for him. Until he becomes leading man in his own movie, him pursuing Dora would seem like an act of convenience.

As for Dora...
She needs a vacation, I was hoping for a while that Marten would take charge and take her on one. She's overworked and underpaid.

I wouldn't be surprised if she called in sick for a week and cried for most of them. I think she'll be okay in the long run, because unlike Marten, she can do fine without anyone.
It's just sad, and I don't see her doing anything or anyone for a while.
While she's on personal leave, everyone would realize how much she puts herself into things and people she believes in. Someone will have a crisis, Faye's sponsors will return, and everyone will be unfufilled with everyone else's advice.
Dora will be monotoned for the next month.

Near Lurker:
No... not Tai.

Bailey, maybe.

Of course, this is going to wreak havoc on her social life.  Most of the people she knows outside the coffee shop she knows through Marten or Faye, and in the coffee shop, Cosette and Hannelore are closer to Marten, Faye is... Faye, Penelope is not really that sociable generally, and Raven is basically gone.

EDIT: No, wait, better idea.  Not Tai.  Not Bailey.  The one for her has been there all along...

Arky:
It's interesting.  I was about to say "come on, Dora must have had a social life in this town before she hired Faye and met Marten, she's a social outgoing girl, she must have friends who aren't at COD even if she hasn't seem them much in the last 18 months" and then realised "yeah, she did, it was the coven".  Oh dear.

Yeah, apart from Penelope, pretty much the entire circle is actually Marten's friend first.  Nearly all of them met Dora through Marten, and on-screen have spent more time with him than her.  Faye is the exception, and it's clear enough that Faye is not going to be Dora's best friend over this whole thing.

Who have we even seen Dora socialise with without Marten present, besides her employees?  Angus, I guess, since he comes to the store, but even then he hasn't really socialised much directly with either Marten or Dora so he'll probably be neutral as to Marten and Dora and just concerned about how it all affects Faye.

akronnick:
Dale.

He's the only cast member who knew Dora before he knew Marten.

But he's probably not the only regular customer who knows CoD's secret menu. Dora can build a whole new circle out of those losers them.
