To be precise, Hanners has 5 piercings, ten in each ear.

Yes, the Pugnacious Peach wants to be a sculptor.

This is the problem in-comic. We don't necessarily have a full grasp of the characters lives. It isn't as though Jeph is showing us the characters as if we're spying on them 24/7. Who knows if he still practices with the band. He very well could be.
And I don't agree that Dora and Faye were just poking fun. Maybe I'm just ultra-sensitive about folks talking about their friends, but it seemed more of a "at least you're not Marten" line from Dora in order to make Faye feel better about being "content".
Hell, in some ways Faye right now is worse off than Marten. She's "contentment" and wants to stay put (which I do completely understand btw. I brought it up first) and her contentment seems to be holding Angus back (again, indirectly and unknowingly).
I don't really understand the difference between Faye's contentedness and Marten's. They've each dabbled equally in things they like. Sculpting and music, but neither has really actively pursued making something of it. So I don't get how either of them is necessarily better off than the other, hence the stupidity of Dora's comment. Hell, if Faye didn't have Angus, she'd be just as "aimless" as Marten. I really don't see the difference. We don't even KNOW what Faye's dreams are really. At least we know Marten would like to play music, maybe professionally, with a band.
Also don't get why we have to love everything he writes. He'd probably think it creepy if we agreed with him on everything. If anyone ever agreed with everything I thought, I think it'd be creepy.

The filler a few days ago was the band, practising. I don't know when that was supposed to be, but...
Sidhekin:
... but Marten was playing the eight-string, so if it is not alternate history, it's either recent or future ...
Is it cold in here?:
We can at least acquit them of being snide behind Marten's back since both have confronted him face to face about his aimlessness. The Pugnacious Peach has told him he's "wasting" his life.
