And if you mean where she said that even though he and Dora didn't work out, things are going to turn out okay: well, that's pretty true too!

Yea...but they're so true everyone knows them. I mean really, honestly, if there's anything we all know about life is that it keeps going on. And sometimes it's good and sometimes it's bad, and time heals all wounds, and generally everything works out in the end, or at least something else comes up to take it's place. We don't want to hear that sometimes that cos it doesn't feel like it at all, but we do know it. Maybe trite isn't the word I was looking for (I meant something that meant more 'commonplace knowledge, no extra insight.)

I was just commenting upon the fact that Veronica doesn't have any concrete advice or insight to give Marten, and it's just because she doesn't have any. I didn't say that was bad! When I said 'sucky' I didn't mean 'sucky mother' as in 'someone call CPS' I just meant she's sucky at knowing what to say/to to give him some clarity. My mother was awesome at it, because she spent a lot of time talking to me in depth, analyzing things with me, including my own reactions and emotions and sometimes even opening my eyes to things I was doing/thinking and didn't realize. But some people aren't good at that. It's not a bad thing, it's just a realistic thing.

I still think the majority of her behavior in the last few comics is inappropriate. But it's all good ~

Is it cold in here?:
If Marten salvages a friendship with Dora, it will be the first time he's managed it with an ex. 755, and look how he practically hid from Vicky. He could have a growth opportunity, or he could take the easy way out and dismiss her as "crazy".

I think Faye might to go out with Marten to prove a point to his mum

Yeah...I get the feeling between her insecurities about Angus, the "Marten" option now being thrust into view (Marten is single, so now she has to confront it mentally somewhat), and Veronica's jarring comment...as well as Faye's sometimes immature attitude...oh yeah, I can see this happening. 

Basically, something like this happens...?

1) Marten starts doing his own thing, and starts feeling / being more confident as time goes on, and becoming perhaps even more empathic / nicer then before
2) Faye doesn't forget what happened the fifth of bourbon night, nor what Veronica said
3) Faye maybe mentions something about this new Marten...which puts Angus back in the same position Dora was in
4) Angus & Faye have a blow up
5) Faye goes on a date with Marten to prove Veronica wrong, or she talks to Marten about it, Marten goes WTF??, Faye gets super angry at the unexpected rejection (due to the bourbon night perhaps making her think Marten really still wanted her), and things blow up.

Marten & Dora ending their relationship could cause Angus to feel threatened the same way Dora did...oooh boy. 

sitnspin:
@Cybit - Nah, I don't see Angus getting insecure as easily as  Dora. Angus has always shown himself to be extremely confident. Too much so, some would argue.
