Exactly! Why nope out now without any information when he talked her through her problems last time? This doesn't feel like Marten at all.
"Oh dear, Tai is having the same trouble with Dora that we had when we were dating. Maybe if I walk away everything will turn out all right."
Half Empty Coffee Cup:
Huh. I thought for a bit and came up with a possible alternate reading.
What if Marten's going to the Coffee of Doom to chew Dora out over letting her insecurities sabotage yet another relationship? That'd... completely contradict my earlier post. I guess I have no idea what's going through Marten's head right now.
Zebediah:
What's going through Marten's head right now? An old Polish proverb: "Not my circus. Not my monkeys."
Coffee_Kaioken:
Maybe he has to save all that supportive capacity for Faye?
If he hadn't been through the wringer from that, he might be willing to share some tips from experience, but given what's going on lately, he might be in more of a "nope, spent a whole relationship dealing with Dora drama, not my problem anymore" mode?

That would make a bit more sense; you could read Marten's facial expression, in light of what Tai's told him and what he knows Faye has been through, as, "Oh, shit. Dora's probably in a lot worse shape than she's letting on." To be assertive enough to draw Dora out would be something we haven't seen from Marten up to this point, but it wouldn't be as out of character as it would've seemed a few months ago.
