Timemaster:
When I saw angry Faye today and Doras excuse, my first thought was that Faye is in a bad temper because she was reminded of her alcohol addiction and because she feels bad about craving a drink right now.

But you all have a good point here. Maybe she really sees that things are running smooth, succesful and friendlier without her, which gives her a feeling of beeing a negative (= bad) person. And thatīs what makes her want to start drinking again.
And the thing is, sheīs not completely wrong here. Not in beeing a bad person of cause, but in being a source of negativity for CoD. Her scorn and sassiness have been a key feature of the ambiente of the shop. With her gone the shop and itīs attitude change, which is only natural. Dora is a grown-up person. And an attitude of sassiness as a business model will get her only so far. Personally and business-like. She has realised that and reacts accordingly.

Dora has moved on. And itīs time for Faye to do the same. Put the past where it belongs: to the memorys. And get on with her own life.

To quote Gunnerkrigg Court again:

"And now the world will continue to spin."

It is quite possible that CoD is cash only.  Such businesses still *do* exist.

BenRG:
Faye is responding to her revelation on Friday by trying to run away from it. Eventually, Faye is going to have to stop running away. She's been running away - from her father's suicide, from her own unresolved relationship problems and her alcoholism - for a while. I'm hoping that Bubbles will, from her own bitter experience, try to communicate just how wretched a life it is to spend your life running and hiding from your demons.

Meanwhile, Dora is doing the right thing. Accepting body parts in lieu of payment would set a precedent that, given the grotesques that populate QC, she doesn't want to have to deal with!

Except the title of the strip is "They Also Accept Paypal".

Zastie:
Well, I hope that little outburst was just because of multiple different things aggravating her at once and is just a temp. thing. It'd suck for Dora and Hannelore to feel bad about trying to do the right thing.
