Not necessarily, the times my roomates have not remembered they've switched between passed out and briefly lucid. As far as I can tell getting blacked out means you don't remember it later.

Note* This is my first time posting in a weekly discussion thread... be kind please?

Welcome to the weekly thread! Not only is she central (being Marten's roomate and all) but she's second listed on the wiki and Jeph's second-favorite. Unless Jeph is channeling G.R.R. Martin I doubt he'll kill her off (and he doesn't really kill people off anyway ever (Except Sarah who was eaten by an allosaurus (but she's an outlier and should not be counted)))
Warning - while you were looking up how to spell "Allosaurus" 6 new replies have been posted. You may wish to visit your 7 year old self and apologize.

Man, some rough stuff lately. I've seen some people interpret this differently but I assume the order of things is that Marten tried to wake her up and figured she has been drinking a loooong time now, called 911, Faye has a brief freak out when realizing vaguely what is happening, punches Marten and then is nap city the rest of the time.
I guess we can assume she had her stomach pumped and is on a drip for fluid replacement, or at least the latter? Either way, I know things are getting quite serious but I don't see MORE drama between folks. 'Close to home' strikes me as something Faye will recognize in herself, as will Marten to some degree. I just hope Dora doesn't, in an act of impulsive selfishness, decides to still hold something against Faye and rub salt in a wound still too fresh. It's more important to just be there and care in the moment; the rest can certainly be hashed out later.

Okay. I've had time to digest this strip.
My thoughts are that she's either dead (plausible, but not as likely) or is in serious trouble and may well be on her way there if she doesn't get help NOW. This is a serious strip and a turning point for Faye and for her friends because now they MUST help see her through recovery by putting a stop to the enabling on their part. I feel that Dora is going to blame herself for whatever happens next and Marty may well have to be a support for Faye and for Dora, which will complicate things with Claire.
I for one hope that Faye pulls through but has to deal with the reprocussions of her serious drinking problem.
In any case, we will all be on the edge of our seats until this arc is finished.

That's almost exactly what I did while reading today's strip.
