Black Sword:
There's one thing bugging me. Where's Steve? He's always been there for Marty's alcohol self-punishment and relationship issues, but now he's not?

Sure, Steve went on his Meena-bender without Marty, but it seems strange that he's not around for Marty's break-up, which seems to be about as pleasant as getting sawed in half by a dull serrated knife.

One other thing is that Marty seems pretty easy to cheer up. Was that all it took?

themacnut:
He doesn't look all that cheered up to me when he sits on the couch with Pintsize. He could have just been putting on a front for Veronica. As for Steve, he's most likely busy with his new girlfriend Cosette.

Dr. ROFLPWN:
I think this is further indication that Veronica doesn't know how to fix the situation, but:

1.) She was trying!

2.) This was heartwarming, at least for me. Sure, Marten is still deeply unhappy, but aww.

--- Quote from: Destenoth on 10 Jan 2011, 03:07 ---While watching this on the stream I started out hopeful - without dialogue it looked as if the first 3 panels could be Marten telling Veronica what she was doing wrong and her taking his hands and apologising. Then I checked back and saw some of the dialogue. That left me extremely unsatisfied, but having now read the finished thing, I maintain hope. Veronica is only going back to her hotel, not home, so hopefully she'll get her comeuppance and the gang will get Marten into therapy for his mummy issues.

Someone remind me again why Marten needs therapy because his mom chose a really weird and ineffective way to try to cheer him up?  And why Veronica needs her comeuppance from a bunch of kids - none of whom are parents themselves and whose mother she could be - about how she treats her own son?

That doesn't seem...inappropriate to you at all?  She didn't beat him in public, she teased him.  More than she should have, yes, okay, I can agree with that, but seriously?  She's not a child abuser.  She didn't beat him in front of the world.  She embarrassed her grown son a little in order to shake him out of his funk, however poorly planned it was.

OH MY GOD NO.  :psyduck:

Heh. I imagine Marigold's face becoming as red as Betelgeuse itself, mouth a perfect 'o' of shock. Not even Momo's electrical discharge function moves her.

Is it cold in here?:
Marigold's personality isn't the kind that attracts Marten, and he's shown no trace of being interested. They don't have common interests. If Marigold can swing a relationship at all, others are way more possible than Marten.
