Border Reiver:
Princess is Sven's cat. And there's nothing that a light haired cat likes more than snuggling up to someone's dark clothing.
Dora's wardrobe is pooched.

Not a spin-off, just a sub-theme, like "Pintsize and Winslow's wacky antics with Roomba" was for a while. Worked for S*P and GWS. :P
Of course that means major cross-over potential and the opportunity to link QC to Sandman by way of the Cats' dream.
Alex42:
I dunno man, I think "Dora's insecurities" was kind of a dumb reason for the two of them to break up. But like most "reasons" people break up, there's probably something else going on too. I guess we'll see if it sticks.
I'm also not sure if it really merit's Dora going to therapy. I mean, counseling isn't a bad idea in general or anything, but the fact that she felt less important than the (major theme of this comic for a few years) relationship between Martin and Faye almost sorta valid. I feel like Dora and Marten got together mostly because they were both just there, not because they were wildly compatible or anything.
Tergon:
Sven earns twelve Big-Brother Points. He upgrades into "Decent Human Being" and gains the Empathy (level one) ability.
Idle speculation:
Faye is, apparently, out with Angus right now. If she returns home and finds Hannelore babysitting an increasinly drunk and depressed Marten, she might not want to stick around and get in on the pity-party, especially if Marten's not being very good company right now. And if she leaves, we don't need three guesses as to where she's likely to end up if not at her own apartment. So, potentially good news for Angus?

They got together at Dora's instigation, because she found him attractive. Probably those piercing blue eyes and black hair. They remended her of someone else she'd been attracted to back in the early days of her "figuring it all out"...
And Sven has confirmed that she's got deep seated self-esteem issues, based on her previous relationships. She's focusing on the fact that she scuttled this relationship, because it's new to her - she's never had one that didn't collapse because the other party was an asshole. And focusing is helping her cope.
Yeah, she'll need therapy. And she'll be able to think of Marten soon enough. Because no one's gonna let her not do so. At the very least, both Faye and Hanners have a way of getting their point across, and they'll keep her from blocking those feelings completely.
I'm actually looking forward to seeing all this play out!
