I have zero doubt that he'll be there for her through all of this, that's their relationship dynamic.  The "if" is just a way of phrasing my statement.

Natswash:
in Which Our Hero asks a Question about our Other Hero, Repeatedly

Kugai:
No, she's not going to be OKAY for quite a while I think.  I can see her relapsing a couple of times before this is all over.

As for Dora, I think she's gonna feel a little responsible for this, but I agree, friend or not, she couldn't put up with Fayes drinking on the job.  My guess is she was hoping that the shock of firing her and coming on strong to her like that would be the proverbial kick in the pants she needed to get herself sorted out. Remember, faye's one of those individuals that you occasionally have to hit over the head with a proverbial Baseball Bat in order to get some ideas through to her.  I don't think she intended it to end up like this.

Undoubtedly getting fired accelerated the process, but I get the feeling that Faye was heading for this since the breakup with Angus, it was just that Dora missed the que.

emmyelf:
Her recovery and the friendships she currently has are dependent on her choices. I was with a man who abused alcohol and did some really appalling things while drunk. He told me all the time "I don't need help." I started counting how many drinks he had and when to show him that if he wasn't an alcoholic (like i believe him to be) he was still binge drinking to self medicate and THAT was a problem. It ended up getting to the point where I had to leave him. He did some truly awful things to me, and refused to get help. Maybe you'll think I'm heartless. I can deal with that.

If Faye continues down this path, and refuses to get help, I can see her losing a lot of friends, simply because they can't handle it. It's very hard to be supportive of a person who refuses to a) admit they have a problem and b) do something about it.

Kugai:
Indeed

It shall be interesting to see how this goes.
