--- Quote from: Elder Sign on 31 Mar 2015, 07:24 ---Oh, also, the side helping of double standards: Claire's apparently free to comment on other characters' genitalian issues, but the same regarding her on here gets people the immediate ban (as I no doubt just inched myself closer to).

To be quite honest, I can't see any hint of Claire "commenting on other characters' genetalian issues". She's teasing Faye about sculpting a metal phallus apparently before any other component of the sculpture and any further implications are purely in the mind of the reader, IMHO. :wink:

--- Quote from: CaptainFish on 31 Mar 2015, 07:42 ---Yeah, I totally understand why Faye's not at full snark power. I imagine to some extent Claire understands/believes that if you have a healthy outlet for issues you don't want everything else to remind you of them, so she's goofing around like she usually would* instead of being delicate around Faye.
*Or maybe a little exaggerated, I mean she does like to crack jokes and follow them up with huge smiles. Also, she is often really blunt, especially back when she was introduced.

Blunt like a falling anvil, since we're on a metal theme today. :-P

Paging Dr. Freud then? Something just struck me as very wang ... er, wrong with that situation.

--- Quote from: Gladstone on 31 Mar 2015, 05:13 ---And I really can't see Faye reacting to the news about Claire (if she ever finds out) with anything more than a casual shrug. Hey, as long as Marty's cool with it, that's fine by her.
--- End quote ---
I think most people should react. I think the only character who should just give a shrug like when she told Marten would be Tai(And maybe Momo? She is Polite Bot 9000). Faye should be surprised. Then probably a bit politically incorrect, if well meaning.
TeaOfDeath:
I'll probably be alone in saying this since Claire seems to have some sort of squee-powered fanclub on here, but her character has gotten both boring and annoying ever since she got together with Marten. I liked her a lot better when she was shy and cute--we already have an overabundance of overbearing female characters in the comic--not that there's anything wrong with any of those characters individually, but all together? It's getting to be a bit much. Claire's not funny anymore, doesn't seem all that intelligent, doesn't have much to recommend her in the way of charm...her initial charm was her shy awkwardness and innocence, and now that that's gone, she's just like another clone of every other female character who's ever been in the comic: a nondescript snarky chick who always has to be a smartass.
Something had been bothering me about Claire for a while, and I FINALLY put my finger on it. Now, hopefully, I won't be bombarded with rotten produce for criticizing everyone's favorite little redhead....

If you only knew the power of the fan squee.
