Probably after Dora's therapy starts to kick-in and she can re-evaluate herself and her past relationships more clearly. Right now they are at the civil behavior, no blame tossing, early conversation level. Sitting on a porch at someone's house in the middle of a party is not the deep long talk time or place.

Thank you for this- I think I like this strip more when I consider that it may not be the end of the discussion. Some days I can feel my brain slowly morphing from quasi-casual QC reader into OMGQCWTFJJ insanity when I over-think the strips but then posts like this bring me back to reality :-P

PS: this forum needs a 'like' button.

I'm a writing fanatic (it's the educator in me) but just because someone words something differently doesn't mean that your words aren't just as important :-D
/fluffy teacherspeak
i concur with the like button! I've actually had moments where I went "Oh! I want to like this....oh wait."
Even more proof that Facebook has infiltrated way too much of my life. Not that i needed any....

And it is immediately quashed by the enormous sense of relief I'm feeling that Dora and Marten are back on good terms with each other.
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS. :lol:

For now. Marten isn't over Dora, not by a longshot. What if Dora went into the party, met a guy, and they ended up exchanging numbers? Do you think Marten would be rooting her on?
This situation usually happens after breakups. Both parties say let's just be friends, but as soon as one moves on it gets uneasy real quick. Let's see if Jeph continues the realism or if Marten somehow stops caring about being with Dora even though, as Dora pointed out, he isn't getting any sleep because of this.
Carl-E:
He certainly wasn't comfortable bringing up the date, and seemed relieved to hear that it didn't go anywhere beyond Friendship. It is going to take them both a while, and it's good that they'll be able to talk about it on an as needed basis - but no more than that, because Marten still feels how raw it is, and Dora's supressing her raw feelings about it (as usual).
So yeah, good first steps.

--- End quote ---
I still have no idea what this means. I know what a manatee is, but I don't get how Marten is like one.
Carl-E:
Manatees are fairly large, slow moving and slower to react - so slow in fact, that they tend to get cut up by the propellers of fishing boats.
Now put one on really goooood painkillers.
The original reference came from Dora in the comic, as a poke at his lack of decisiveness.
