Mayhem:
Did this make anyone else wonder if Marten has some kind of slight Oedipus complex? Because isn't that almost EXACTLY what Dora did?

My apologies if someone else said this first and I didn't see it... these threads are so LONG.

Dr. ROFLPWN:
Except those social skills classes kind of do not apply to the woman who gave birth to you and raised you from childhood, and applied to her they are pretty passive-aggressive. I guess if you have a really bad family situation that shit applies? Maybe? I don't want to fucking go into that. Marten, the person who matters here, has a mother who loves him and who walking off on would be shitty and childish.

It's also, to me,  pretty clear Veronica was doing it to get a reaction and make him stop stewing in his own BLUH BLUH, which is what he wants to do.

If anything, Marten's reaction here is a good one--he goes "Mooooommm, GOD", and she goes "oh shhhh" and that is how things work because she's his mother.

 If it was one of his friends doing this? Sure, walk away! But it's his mom.

pwhodges:
Well, I do know that us parents do some pretty strange and embarrassing things for and to our children, but I wouldn't have done that myself.  Not least because I wouldn't have the nerve to anyway.

Delator:
I don't see Veronica going with Tai to the goth club...but I can totally see her making Marten go along as Tai's wingdude.  :-D

...maybe while at the club they'll encounter a vomiting Allosaurus and thence run into Raven or Natasha.

...hey, I can dream, can't I?  : (

Near Lurker:
Scrolling down (rather slowly for RAM issues) from the top, I first took the second panel as Veronica thinking "hang on - you're a lesbian?!"  It was not until I actually saw the panel that it occurred to me that would have made absolutely no fucking sense.

I want to see gothy Marten now.  Of course, with his luck, guess who else will have had the idea of picking up a rebound at the goth club...
