WCDT: Strips 2892 to 2896 (9th - 13th February 2015)
TRVA123:
I actually wouldn't mind seeing Faye and Sven reconcile, possibly date. I feel like they've each gone through a significant amount of character growth that they might be able to meet on more equal and respectful terms. I thought they worked well as platonic friends, and I don't think they would be a bad couple. But I think that arc would be a slow burn, as opposed to a sudden development.
explicit:
Has Sven really gone through a lot of development though? The last time we saw him he was with Steve right? And he was being all very unself-aware? So he can admit that he loves Faye and doesn't want sexy times anymore, but what else?
TRVA123:
Well, he now has a good idea of whether he can be monogomous. And he knows that he does care for Faye, but he does still have a ways to go.
Idk, I just read Sven differently than most people seem to. I thought he was good for Faye, particularly from a friendship standpoint, but they also had good chemistry and got along until he shacked up with riversmith.
I mean, Faye isn't exactly that far along in term of character development herself.

NO!!! Oh, no, no, no, no, no....
Maybe down the road. But Faye's newly sober, she really needs to be focused on that right now. Once she's got some good time on her, then Sven might be a possibility. Although Sven still has some growth to do first, too. Which, conveniently enough, he should have enough time for if Faye waits until she's been sober a while.
TheEvilDog:
To be honest, Sven is one of the most selfish character in the comic right now, even if he doesn't quite realise it. The guy really needs to level up his empathy and thinking about other people before he should enter into a relationship. (Even Dora has said that Sven probably loathes himself and the utter lack of depth to most of his relationships probably amounts to him having the emotional depth of a kiddie's pool).
Even a few months down the line, Faye and Sven could be nitro on a rocky road levels of bad. Right now Faye needs to get herself back on her feet and into a better place emotionally. And Sven needs to do some growing up.
