WCDT: 2661-2665 (March 17-21, 2014) Weekly Comics Discussion Thread
Tova:
I can't tell you how pleased I am that there are at least two people for whom the whole "space X" thing hasn't yet got old.
DSL:
Seems to me Angus and Faye have had this discussion and maybe she was a little too vehement in her reassurance, hence Angus's insecurity.
Which leads me to:
Were these real people and were I in the middle of this discussion (unlikely) I would suspect Angus's real question, the one he is trying to ask without asking, is whether Faye might recalibrate her sights and seek solace in Marten, who is, after all, right there.
Spathe root beer.

1. Not that you're shipping or anything... (but that thought occurred to me too)
2. If Marten thought he stood a chance with Faye while Angus was away, would he give Angus an honest answer?

1. My understanding of the term "shipping" (the kind that does not involve transportation) is that it reflects a desire, not a prediction or suspicion. And Angus, manipulator that he is, might be projecting "what I'd do" onto Marten -- to whom the idea might not occur unless Angus expresses it. Mr. Reed is rather passive about these things, as a rule.
2: He wouldn't intend to, but might accidentally.
