AHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Even I, rubbish at relationships that I am, know to tell your partner about possible life changing decisions while you are thinking about them, well before you actually take them.
Welu:
How long is the actual potential distance?

It wouldn't be made up, exactly. "Yeah, I have a job in NY" is pretty suitable both for Faye to hear and as the truth.
--- Quote from: Welu on 07 May 2013, 06:02 ---I may be the odd person here but I don't think Angus asking in bed was an odd thing. Around the end of the day is sort of when all my thoughts come together so I have the occasional deep thought to express.
--- End quote ---
I agree. We talk about almost everything right before bed. If it's something sad and dramatic like that, you are also in prime position for hugs (or sex, which is a way better way to feel better). Mind, we live together and are basically married, and as far as I know Angus is just spending the night, so it might feel a bit more intrusive, even if it's still a good time.
(Angus is living with Marigold still, right? If he wasn't I'm pretty sure it would be Hannergold and the apartment would never be dirty again, but that hasn't happened)
ETA- Looks like I was wrong and that's Angus' apartment (by the colour/decor), so it shouldn't have been that invasive, either.
--- Quote from: Welu on 07 May 2013, 06:02 ---Faye and Angus' relationship seems very solid to me. Yeah, they have spats but they both like the snarkiness of each other. They're not really fights about their relationship. In this case, the night before was cut short but Faye brought it up again and apologised and they calmly, if briefly, talked it out. I would say Angus will bring this up to her again and was hoping to do it the night before, before Faye's answer to his question.
--- End quote ---
I don't think we know enough to say that. It seems kind of flat to me, like they date, have sex, and love each other, but there's neither passion nor feeling of length to it. The foreshadowing comic linked above could switch careers with the relationship, and that would be how it looks to me ("meh, good enough"). The only times they even seem like more than friends to me are bed/makeout scenes, rather than during dramatic events or talking about things, especially since I'm pretty sure Marten and Dora are still much closer to her than Angus (which is not a bad thing, but means that there is a distance there).
I don't mean it's a bad relationship, just that it could go either way. Nitpicking found negativity, and even if that's a little silly, it means it's possible for it to end soon.
Welu:
I think it may just be a difference in what romantic relationships are personally to people but for me, a close friend I'm intimate is my relationship. Faye judges Angus as someone to trust despite how hard that is for her and that's a big element. Although it's true there's a lot we haven't seen of them as a couple.
