Tova:
And just to muddy the waters further, I'm going to admit that I've more or less stopped noticing it.

BenRG:
Ah! It wouldn't be Claire if her first focus wasn't on tweaking Clinton's nose! :wink:

Seriously, I'm glad that Jeph has decided to at least make a reference to the fact that Marten has a seriously weird life and have Claire, who is, after all, an outsider, acknowledge this.

I've noticed that he's started to introduce a definite speaking pattern for Claire. She'll make a introductory statement like "I have a concern" and then wait to be asked to elaborate. I'm not sure if it's a sign of politeness or if she is nervous in social interactions and feels that she needs permission to be involved.

Continuity Note: Claire still has her hair down. So, it looks like she totally lost her hair scrunchie to the shock-wave when the Pizza Pod made its hard landing.

In truth, I barely notice it! Maybe I'm looking at the comic at too low a resolution but it isn't actually easily visible to me; it just looks like an art error!

Undrneath:
Is it just me or does Marten sometimes come across as less boyfriend and more parent?

I'd say "older brother." Something he's done before, around young ladies with childlike aspects to their personalities (such as a certain skinny, other-worldly blonde). When he's not being discombobulated, that is.

Claire basically did the same thing to Marten when they were talking to Veronica in the library a few dozen strips back. I just think it's part of their dynamic that they like taking on an ultra-mature posture and tease each other with 'sage advice'.
