--- Quote from: Emperor Norton on 05 Nov 2014, 18:50 ---My Headcanon: Marten is actually describing bad dates he has had in both cases.
--- End quote ---
Off-panel, Marten has already gone on a first date with Emily. It went badly because she set literal pitfalls for him. The junk-punching was obviously an off-panel incident with Faye during the pre-Talk days. The Hitler yelling is left as a Noodle Incident (TV Tropes link omitted).

I think people were over analyzing the not smiling thing.
But a smiling Claire does make me happy.

You save that kind of thing for the third date.

I believe that sword throwing before marriage is immoral.

While I disagree I respect your right to sword throwing decisions of your own.
What is your opinion on Spear throwing?

Me too. On both counts.
I think what the nay-sayers underestimate about this relationship is how comfortable these two are with each other. Anxiety about stuff can be a problem, but what really kills it is bottling it up, or talking about it only with someone other than the person it's related to. As much as Claire is over worrying, she's basically just laid out her issue to the person in question. "I'll do something stupid" implies, "And then you'll reject me."
"Don't invoke Hitler, or attack my gonads and we'll be okay" is a humorous way of saying, "I'm not going to bail because you fail to be perfect."
Someone pointed out, during Claire X Marten: The Squeeeining--just after Second Pancakes, that these two are pretty hardcore about consent. I don't think that's a conscious on their part. They are hardcore about communication. I'm not sure that's conscious either but, as long as it lasts, they are going to get along fine.
