It is saddening to me that so many people seem to want to interpret Marten's actions and mental state in the worst light. Just a few days ago, people were complaining about how endlessly moping over his one night stand he was being. Now he's had an epiphany and gotten over the mopes, and people seem to be split between whether this means he's about to go into a rage filled drunken stupor, or have a psychotic break....

Picturing Delilah possibly going "what have I done?" She realized what she did and might have liked him more than she could say. It wouldn't be the first time a woman has pushed a guy she likes away because mentally/emotionally processing it is not possible at the time.
Zebediah:
New scenario: Delilah is moping at the bar. Marten goes over to talk to her. Delilah tells him about this one-night stand she had with a guy who she then pushed away, but now wishes she had gotten to know better. She's totally oblivious that Marten is the guy she's talking about.

This!
I read Marten's laughter as seeing the absurdity of the whole situation and being able to laugh at life's jokes even when he's the butt of one of them. Marten has one night plus one morning's worth of emotional investment in Daria. If that's going to make him snap, then he's a different person than what I thought I've been reading all these years.
Is it cold in here?:
"At that moment Marten reached enlightenment"
