Hah, nice. Faye's complete non-reaction sells it!

Also: Marten, going from super-smooth to inserting foot in mouth again. I can't figure out his character any more  :psyduck:

also, to the reconciliation-then-Jim-and-second-chances:
I hope Dora and Faye spend some time apart. Like, a few weeks or so. While they aren't in a relationship, their personalities clash with each other and not in a good way. Dora had several freak-outs over Faye's behaviour (sleeping with Sven, hugging Marten), and while Faye's rapier wit and treatment of customers are a major selling point of Coffee of Doom, she counts them as very negative qualities. Faye... well, Faye isn't an easy person to get along with, and while she mostly dealt with her negative feelings about Dora by drinking, it doesn't mean they aren't there. They need to find out what they like and miss about the other person, and maybe reconciliate when everything's blown over and then redefine what they mean to each other, now that they aren't boss/employee any more.

Wildroses:
Alas, it appears Marten's almost supernatural ability to say the right things at the right time to his transgender girlfriend are coming at a terrible cost. He's having a lot of trouble picking the right thing to say to his best friend about her alcohol related dramas.

Mind you, he was having that trouble even before Claire appeared.

There's no reason he can't have the both qualities at the same time! He's being very careful with what he says to Claire for the obvious reasons. Faye he's known for years and I don't think that his brain-to-mouth filter is very often engaged when he's around her.

Alternatively, consider this possibility: Maybe Marten isn't being super-smooth. He's just doing exactly what he did with Faye - saying the first thing that comes into his head. Let's just face the fact that Marten is crushing on Claire so badly that she's practically surrounded in bubbles and sparkles in his point of view! :wink:

Nathanyel:
Damn, misinterpreted the doorknobs of the cupboards as a sign of relapse...

Scary thought, BenRG - that would mean that once the infatuation ends, he'll be insulting Claire continuously!  :-P
