No harm done to Pintsize - whew. I was concerned. Maybe he's growing too.

I felt Jeph could've done a bit more with that one instead of having Marten as the Deus.
Oenone:
In my experience, therapists don't like to lead the group therapy sessions their clients are in.
BenRG:
It ain't easy being Pintsize, or so it seems! Maybe he should talk to Marten about this? He is his friend, after all! If he needs to be antisocial on a regular basis, I'm sure that Marten can find someone who will indulge him!
BTW: I loved Faye's nonplussed expression in panel 3. It's the realisation that she doesn't get the little guy at all!

--- Quote from: Gladstone on 02 Mar 2015, 21:21 ---Crass sexual humor completely unrelated to her trans status, perhaps, but anything transphobic?
--- End quote ---
More on the former than the latter. Pintsize shows some lewd pic that offends/sickens Claire (but most certainly nothing transphobic, just something in bad taste in general), Marten has to come in and reprimand Pintsize to don't do that to Claire. Nothing outlandish, just something that could be a learning point, like how Pintsize can go too far even though the cast has tolerated his antics. Hell, in that context, it doesn't have to be trans-related, just some incident that can be applied in general to many things.
--- End quote ---
Or Claire sticks up for herself, lets Pintsize know he's gone too far, throws him against the wall, etc. No need for anyone to protect her, she can take care of herself. Or they develop their own relationship (I came up with a little dialogue here that I thought worked better than the LOOM strip, but I'm obviously biased), something full of friendly banter and subtle jabs, with Claire giving as good as she gets, until she makes a pun so terrible it renders Pintsize speechless.
Heck, I like that idea so much I'm going to say it again: Claire makes a pun so terrible it renders Pintsize speechless.
And now I'm sad it'll never happen.
