Omega Entity:
This is true. But then, there are many couples who never progress past that stage :psyduck:
Undrneath:
I always seem to go directly from the "joined at the hip" stage to the "I don't want you as part of my life" stage. Do not pass go, do not collect $200. You know that old chestnut.

I just went back and reread a bunch of those strips.. and i can't put my finger on it. The overall energy is different, in a more appealing way. Maybe its because the story jumps between a lot more plotlines much more quickly.

Alternatively, maybe it's because Dora acted like a early to mid 20's young adult, whereas Claire's social skills stalled out when she was 14. Looking back, i can think of many occasions where Dora did something that left me thinking "wow, what a bitch...", but never once did i think "my god, would you grow the fuck up!" Claire on the other hand has a few of the first, and more of the second than i care to count, with the occasional overlap, such as the incident with Faye last week.

It's also only been, what, a couple of days? There hasn't been a whole lot of time for other things to happen yet.
BenRG:
This is a point that I made up thread but it's awfully easy for people to miss. Jeph has stretched about twelve weeks out into somewhere in the region of fifteen-hundred strips. Marten has only known Claire for three months in total and they've been in a formally-acknowledged relationship for ten days at the most. So, yeah, it's going to be a while before the shine comes off, at least from our perspective.
