Marten may not know Lt. Potter's first name, but I'll bet it's Marygay, assuming the same alt universe as The Forever War. Any takers?
themacnut:
I figured Marten wasn't getting any play whichever way this went - it would be too easy after his so-recent experience with Padma. It's really about time he got shot down again (hasn't happened since the time he tried to talk to Padma at the bar, and since she didn't even seem to be aware Marten was trying to hit on her I'm not sure that even counts). Most guys get shot down by multiple women before they even get so much as a phone number out of one, never mind a date or even makeouts.
Still, it seems to me like Marten was just barely starting to make a move, if indeed he was intending to make a move at all. My first thought was that Lt. Potter seems to have jumped the gun a bit there, and Marten just seemed to go along with it. In any case, this is one reason why Marten's so passive, apparently even thinking about doing something more aggressive results in fail for him. He's apparently better off just sitting around waiting for a woman to come to him, even if he's got to wait months or years.

Sometimes Marten just can't seem to catch a break
But at least he's consistent. :-D

I've come to the conclusion the poor feller is cursed with the ladies right now. The curse of the passive ponce I shall call it.
