Comic Discussion > QUESTIONABLE CONTENT
WCDT: 2801-2805 (29th September - 3rd October) Weekly Comic Discussion Thread
DrClef:
So people are all like, "Aww, that sucks that Claire is being cautious but it's great that she's waiting for consent."
I was just thinking it was kinda nice that Marten's the same. . . except that given who his mom is, he's probably gotten the whole, "SAFE SANE CONSENSUAL" lecture a lot. . . even when he didn't want it.
God, I can't believe I registered just to comment on this non-event. :T
techkid:
Claire: cute and clever :)
And Marten: good man. Just because you're drunk, it's no excuse to go too far.
I still think this is going to end up massively awkward for them. But Marten is not stupid-drunk, and made a rational decision. Who knows? :)

Alcohol plays a central part here. We could have a discussion about the pros and cons of alcohol consumption, but I guess this better belongs in another discussion thread. The important fact is that Claire is very afraid of losing control, thus she drinks very little alcohol. Marten is moderately/very drunk, and his inhibitions are obviously lowered.
The sober girl/drunk guy combination is usually not good. Claire realizes this, and slams the brakes. And I guess Marten, when sober again, will regret this (if he remembers), and continue to treat Claire as before.
Sorry shippers, the ship has not sailed yet. This was just some innocent scratching (although Claire loved it).

--- Quote from: ankhtahr on 28 Sep 2014, 20:12 ---It might be worth to mention, that Marten's idea of dating an intern goes further than just dating-a-coworker-trouble. It's rather a dating-a-superior-trouble. He's afraid that it might come off as him forcing the intern into a relationship through his position of power as superior.

He is not her superior. He is a lowly unskilled helper. She is on the career track to become a librarian. She has way more status than him. Her superior must be some librarian. Marten has been given the task of showing her the ropes. He is not her boss.
