Why is Tai getting butterflies now?

(1/5) > >>

questionablecontentfan:
People must remember the comic where Tai expresses her condolences to Dora about the breakup with Marten. After she leaves, she has butterflies in her tummy.

My question is, why? When I first read that comic (before reading through the archives) I thought Tai was a shy person. Was I ever wrong! She showed Dora her piercing, said "Marten says I can have sex with you!" and admitted to Dora that she was crushing on her big time.

So why is Tai suddenly getting butterflies in her tummy? That's not the Tai I've come to know. Heh. I guess this is a silly question, but maybe it will become clear in time.

kent_eh:
Don't think it's shy.
It's more nerves.

Like when you want to ask someone out,, but you're not sure you should, but you want to, but you don't want to fuck it up and ruin your chances...

Carl-E:
Exactly.  There's a huge difference between joking with someone who's not available and actually asking them out when they are!  Tai know's Dora's monogamous, something she's beed yearning after for years.  Any new territory broached will leave you unsure and nervous! 

questionablecontentfan:
Oh...you're right! It's probably more nervousness than shyness. But still, she seemed a bit shy talking to Dora inside Coffee of Doom.

I guess she is a bit nervous now that Dora's single and it could actually happen. She also probably wonders if she should since it's so soon after the breakup.

Hmm...I am very curious to see how this will play out.

Is it cold in here?:
The way I'd put it (though the substance is the same as what everyone else has said) is that Tai's nervous because this time it's real. Her previous relationships seem to have been physical, and not deep even when she got dramatic (cf. Bailey).

EDIT: this is a good question and (moderator)good for the forum(/moderator)! Welcome, new person.
