Hope costs nothing. Unfortunately, that's often what it's worth . . .

I know where you're coming from. I'm not annoyed by her, but I feel the story lines with her and Martin have become too flat (boring maybe?). A lot of this comic focuses on character growth, and it feels Marten's and Claire's have stagnated. Squee can only carry you for so far. To be honest, I'd really like to know what other characters are doing. The focus on the last couple of months in comic has been Marten/Claire/Faye's downfall. While these have been good stories, I would love to have other characters checked in on. It feels they've all been put on the bus.
DSL:
Is it possible to like someone and still be bothered by one or two aspects of their personality? Or to dislike someone and still allow they might have a redeeming quality or two?

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.

Don't martyr yourself or anything... You seem to be overestimating the sort of response you're going to get.
Is it cold in here?:

We've seen her have an anxiety attack before so that's plausible.
--- Quote from: BenRG ---Suggested quote: "Every objection I can think of to you being with Marty I hear in my Aunt's voice. If that bigoted witch is the best I can come up with, then I don't have any objections that I respect.".

Dude, it's become clear that you are here on earth to tell stories. Drop some inessential part of your life and spend the time writing!
