WCDT: Strips 2892 to 2896 (9th - 13th February 2015)
BenRG:
@Aziraphale,
I can see Marten walking into the kitchen, looking at the clock and seeing that the time is something past midday. He panics and starts trying to get dressed for work, eat a truncated breakfast and take care of personal hygiene all at once. Claire will stop him and tell him that he's got the day off. Tai had told her yesterday that he could have until Monday off so he could help Faye get her feet underneath her again.
"Did you turn off my alarm clock?"
"Yeah, I did." Then he'd kiss her and thank her.
It would be a nice little moment reminding us that they are all friends and that, professionalism aside, everyone goes out of their way to help a friend. Especially when said friend is helping a friend himself.

I daresay that Friday's strip wrapped up the Marten & Claire show for now; I think that coming up next we'll see an update on Pintsize (one strip or part thereof I guess) and progress on Dora's timeline (at least a couple, chatting with others). Plus Faye, more shakeouts from the Fayepocalypse as the dust settles.
I have fingers crossed Pintsize & Faye interact more during their mutual recoveries.. he's shown he does know the companion role well, and I think his different take on it and blunter approach would suit Faye much more than it does Marten. I don't think his hidden depths are entirely filled with porn..

Good lord.. I've neither watched nor even thought of HSB for many a decade - and didn't actually watch it myself when it was on back in the day, I 'twas but a nipper - yet upon reading that I instantly got the theme tune in my head again! :police:
Anyway, carry on..

Yeah, the Svenpocalypse has been just kind of hanging now for so long, and the Faye issues added on, it just seems like stuff with Dora just happens and then we see nothing else from it again.

That has been a particularly glaring omission. I remember Jeph saying he had plans for Sven when he first popped back up again. While he may be looking much longer-term than is apparent, I'm starting to wonder if he forgot.

This is possible, especially since Pintsize did say to May at one point that his work with Marten was pretty much done.
Ben: I like the thought of that.
