Omega Entity:
Actually, I believe the reason she left was that she needed a change of scenery - i.e., to get away from Georgia and everything that reminded her of her father.
Is it cold in here?:
She said pretty much that after The Talk if memory serves.
KOK:
That punch left no bruise.
jheartney:
I imagine there are plenty of barista type jobs locally; Faye could get one once she's sober. She'll have to tone down the violence, but in principle there's no reason she has to leave town.
The real problem is Marten obviously doesn't get what alcoholism is, and so all his decent impulses are just going to turn him into an enabler. His demanding that the doctor tell him if Faye be OK shows his naiveté about what the issues are. Faye will make a full physical recovery, but that won't touch the causes that made her do this. Faye will use Marten to keep drinking, first by laying on the guilt trip about his being off with Claire while Faye was hurting due to the breakup. She'll also lean on him to support her, or find someone else to do it (hello Hannelore) while she goes back to the bottle. Faye badly needs tough love, but Marten probably isn't the one to give it to her.

Arrested Development :-)

He's there, isn't he? "I want to be here when she wakes up."
--- Quote from: Oilman on 26 Jan 2015, 21:11 ---She isn't one if the inner circle who have known each other since schooldays.

The only two people in the entire comic that knew each other in high school/college were Dora and Raven (assuming Marten and Steve didn't - pretty certain Marten flew over alone). Everyone else met everyone else over the course of this comic, largely through Coffee Of Doom.
--- Quote from: Oilman on 26 Jan 2015, 21:11 ---I can't really see how she can do anything other than return to Georgia and try to make her peace with her mother and (possibly) sister, although HER issues are in the way of that. I don't get the impression that FAYE regards that particular issue with favour.
--- End quote ---
What makes you think Faye has an issue with Amanda being gay? Her mother doesn't approve but Faye's shown no signs of homophobia, just surprise.
--- Quote from: Oilman on 26 Jan 2015, 21:11 ---She obviously doesn't much care for Tai's louche behaviour, which verges on sexual assault at times (cf her reaction to Tai jumping on her lap, drunk and pants-less).
--- End quote ---
That was Marigold that got the pantsless treatment, although she has been given the lap treatment in the past. But Tai's settled down now anyway.
