Well, that was a great chapter. Marten's well-earned his drunken jerkitude, so all the power to him to make an ass of himself to his heart's content for the night. In fact, I'd be tickled pink to see him retain consciousness long enough to come to the realization (after his little drunken speech) that like Faye, now Dora will get her issues resolved thanks at least in part to him and the breakup, which will lead her to more healthy relationships in the future. Of course, depending on how drunk he is, this would be the point where the inevitable epiphany kicks in that he exists essentially as a garage pitstop on Relationship Road to repair the women in his life and send them off to sleep with the rest of the gang at Hipster Junction (Sven "quizzing" at the gate). Now to move on to Hanners, and with Anges tied up with our disturbingly strong femme fatale, eventually Marigold.
Seriously though, I pray Faye doesn't take his drunken ramblings too much to heart, since he's in a pretty bad place right now, and mainly, drunk off his damn ass on what could only be worse if it was glowing. It's somewhat hard to stay mad at him for it, especially given his track record, and Faye doesn't seem like the type to hold a grudge over this given past arguments and such.

Or all of the above.

I imagine the more depressing (and potentially likely, depending on how pissed Faye is) scenario is to wake up all alone in a puddles of the stuff all over the floor.

If he isn't he's probably been pushed into the "curled up the the fetal position, blubbering like a baby" stage of alcohol depression.
Though honestly, the amount of crap Marten has put up with in general and from Faye in particular, if this is a one time thing, it'll probably just be let go. You'd hope, anyway.

We've seen many (though not for a long time), but those against Marten previously have always been playpunching, however hard - I stand by that because they were not such as to affect their relationship. The only non-play violence I recall is when Faye threw Angus across the bar for getting far less familiar than Marten just did.

While I was reading?? I haven't even written anything yet, what's to review??? :psyduck:
Ohhhhh boy. Marten, you did it this time. Some things, once they're said, can't be unsaid. It's gonna take a whole lot for Faye to forgive this, and even then, she'll probably never forget. I can't even imagine how drunk he must be to say something that harsh, and THEN top it off with... well, that. That was a perfect storm of assholery... something we didn't think Marten capable of, but there ya go. I mean, sometimes you do something hurtful, and sometimes you say something hurtful - but all at the same time? Man, Marten, when you blow shit up, you go all OUT. I mean... wow. Who's Faye's gonna lean on now? She doesn't know Angus well enough yet, and she sure as hell can't tell Dora about this. Who's left?
For the record, I do hope that Faye says something to him about it, even if he doesn't remember, because there's obviously some unresolved stuff on Marten's part that needs to get hammered out if they're gonna salvage this thing.
Ok, ok, maybe I'm going too hyperbolic. I'm sure they'll be able to get past this eventually. But it'll be a long time before Faye's comfortable drinking with Marten again.
