Toe:
The problem is, the human arm doesn't rotate that way. Put your arm out with the elbow bent downward slightly, as if you were putting your arm around someone like Marten is. (His elbow isn't as bent in 4 as it was in 3, but it's still pretty clearly angled downward.) Now keep your arm in that position and try to rotate your hand so that your palm is pointing upward like Marten's is. :psyduck:

Unless I'm missing something, I can do it pretty easily. Hook my arm around an imaginary person, and just turn my forearm up and out so my hand is palm up. A bit tight towards my wrist, but nothing uncomfortable.

That's quite a 'friendly' look Tai is giving Marten there...
Is it cold in here?:
Panel three? Almost puppyish, in fact.

Oh sure, it's pretty easy if you turn your forearm so that it's pointing upward (ie wrist above elbow). But that's not what Marten's arm is doing - his wrist is well below his elbow.
