Black Sword:
Am I the only one really not getting into this arc? Entry into it felt really contrived and forced, and I'm not sure I really want to spend that much time on a pair I've never been greatly interested in the first place.
I'm not looking forward to hundreds of strips and years of this.
ukrayf:
Just let Jeph work out the kinks and figure out the dynamic more, it'll feel less awkward eventually.
Melauren:
Enh, even if Joseph (Joseph? Yes?) IS into "tall" ladies, that doesn't preclude him from checking out other ladies. I check out almost everyone I meet unless I find them distinctly UNattractive at first glance... so I can see why Tai'd be pissed. It's like Dora's saying "you're so unattractive that my dad wouldn't even glance at you twice."
Actually, I think Marten once compared Tai to a pinball machine in terms of sexual attractiveness. Kid can't catch a break!

I'm about Tai's shape (though I do have a bubble butt and am average height), so that's something that would honestly hurt my feelings enough that I would think about reconsidering the relationship. Like, "You don't consider me desirable enough for your pervert dad? If you don't think I'm good enough for the dirty old man to stare at, then you obviously don't think much of my figure." She's treating Tai like she's not attracted to her. And that does not bode well. At all.
It's hard for me to tell how much of Tai's reaction in the last panel is just for laughs/cuteness. I'm curious to see what they'll add to that in the next one.

Back to the Dora "loves" Butch girls and thinks they're cute but aren't her type. Pretty sure there was a strip about it. Gotta say, Dora has never seemed to be attracted to Tai so much as just interested in her in general on a "you got a vag piercing, cool! gotta see that!". Still getting the sisterly vibes from Dora.
That said. Ughg. That's Marten level foot in mouth.
Pervy dads may did tall girls Dora, but that doesn't mean they won't go looking at other cute girls.
That waiter IS slackin' by the way. I'm guessing it prolly just woulda been harder to draw both plates in both hands.

Word. (do people still say that?)
Marten-Dora felt awkward at the beginning. Nothing was more awkward than Steve-Cosette. Or Steve-Ellen. Or Steve-Meena. Hell, all of Steve's pairings felt forced. But hell if Steve-Cosette isn't true to a half dozen couples I've known over the years!
Really, the most "organic" pairing I've seen in here is Angus-Faye (Sorry, I still like "Fayngus").
We're human. We are awkward. We're also the only creatures self-conscious enough to care about awkwardness!
