Because, you know, Claire hasn't told Marten about herself at all, and Marten hasn't told Claire about his passions while on a date with her.
Never.
Carl-E:
Look, people who barely know each other need to tell each other about themselves.
People who've worked together for quite a while - several months so far at least - and are friends who have already talked several times get to revel in each other's company instead.
I'd say it's just realistic.
bhtooefr:
Another thing to consider is that we already know Marten pretty well, as he's the main character, and is pretty open about his history. Showing him telling Claire about himself (except for a little bit so that it feels natural) isn't that interesting, because it's telling the reader something they already know.
Conversely, Dora's history... we know a fair amount of her personality and her history with men, and we know she's bi, but before she actually started dating Tai, we didn't know much at all about her history with women. There was more of Dora's story to tell.
DSL:
Nothing wrong with how Marten/Claire are becoming ... more than friends/co-workers. It's just that Tai/Dora got itself an extra serving of greatness when Tai stepped out of her clumsy-puppy-love persona to try to kick down some of Dora's insecurity wall. In the vernacular of The Site That Will Ruin Your Life, that in my mind was Tai's Moment of Awesome.

I may be a bit Hanneloreish, but my first thought on seeing today's comic was how Marten can stand to sit on that couch now. Though it is important to note he's sitting on the right side of the couch. The left side is the puked side.
Oh, and I haven't seen tomorrow's comic yet. The glitch seems to have been fixed before I woke up.
