My guess is that Marten sighing most likely means his depression is NOT resolved, and he just put on a happy face for his mother.

While I don't particularly like the idea of them ignoring it and not addressing it, I'm willing to consider it a Big Lipped Alligator Moment if it means that the painful reading is done with.

Who the hell said it's over? You think Veronica flew all the way from California to Massachusetts (man that's a tough one to spell) to stick around for just one day? She only stayed for a bit during her last visit because it was mostly for business; this is a purely personal visit so I wouldn't be surprised if she stuck around for at least one more day.

As a cogently expressed suggestion of a direction the comic could go, this is acceptable; it is neither creepy, nor demanding that Jeph should do this regardless. If it attracts posts that don't fit the rules, they will be dealt with.

Really, in this scenario, the main thing missing from our present perspective is any sign of actual attraction. Given that the whole time they've known each other Marten has been with Dora and Marigold has mainly been either been introverted or (for a time) hankering after Angus, there hasn't been much opportunity for such an attraction to grow or be recognised. I guess we have to wait on Jeph for that to happen or not.

Given that it's only something like 48 hours or so since the breakup, this is hardly surprising.
