What a lot of snowflakes you all are. In Claire's position, I would do just what she did; and in Marten's I would expect her to.

How does thinking it's a little bit shady on the face of it to want to dig up dirt on your partner's exes (in front of them, at that) make one a snowflake, exactly?

Global Moderator Comment Since I first became a moderator here we have been strict about spelling the characters' names correctly. It is disrespectful to misspell people's names, especially after correction, and we treat the characters as people in this regard as well as in others (such as, say, sexuality). It's also good practice for real life. N.B. there's even a sticky post at the top of this subforum with the correct spellings to make it even easier!
Buggman:
I actually like Claire as a character, even if she is a creator's pet and her relationship with Martin is over-idealized in some respects. Having said that, a lot of my continued sympathy and respect is going to ride on what she does next.
The fact that she gave Marten the stink-eye and the "R e A l L y?" treatment after a SINGLE stranger started flapping her gums galls me to no end. It's bad enough to see Martin on the receiving end of "the man is always wrong in a relationship" trope with Padma, when in fact Padma was being just as flaky (and no fault to her--it was crappy timing that got both of them). But to see Claire of all people start playing the "jealous girlfriend" trope just to see him squirm?
No. Just no.
Marten has been completely selfless, loving, and supportive to her in a relationship that most men would find difficult to even conceive of having. He deserves FAR better from her than this rom-com BS.
Even if Claire ends up telling Renee to f*** off, if she doesn't realize what she's done wrong in today's strip and make things right with Marten, my sympathy for her as a character is going to take a massive dive. Maybe not a terminal dive, but a pretty severe hit nevertheless.
War Sparrow:
Were Padma and Marten dating, or were they just sleeping together? I can't recall.
