I doubt that, but the internet is so rarely a place for reasoned debate.

Can we officially declare the day the Internet becomes a place for a reasoned debate to be a sign of one of the Four Horsemen?

Marten already tried to return to COD so he has prepared himself for the meeting at least once. He also knew Dora was on a date and is sitting outside at a party, probably brooding about the whole thing. Better to have things unexpectedly move forward for real than spend all evening getting drunker wondering how the date is going.

That's a good point. I suppose there's no actual GOOD way for Dora to approach Marten. Whatever she does is likely to be sudden and difficult, because Marten's emotions are still pretty raw.
I was thinking about it, and I think the reason it bothers me is that it almost seems insensitive - "I was out on a date, and I stopped by to see how you're doing after I left you,", and it sort of rubs in the whole I'm-over-you feeling? Not that Dora is totally responsible for Marten's feelings or anything like that - if he never moves on, it's not like she should never date or never let him know that she's moved on. It's sort of an amorphous uncomfortableness with it, but overall, like you said, he might have been focusing on how the date was anyway, and it's good for them to talk.

would be if the date wasn't a dasaster, date-wise.
emotional-wise, and cluebat-wise, it was something like a artillery barriage.
man, i can't wait to see how that story unfolds.
