WCDT Strips 3506 to 3510 (19 June to 23 June 2017)
BLT with rings:
Claire's stock is dropping rapidly for me. It appears she and Marten went to a bar to have a few drinks and enjoy each other's company. Now Claire is ditching the original plan and instead looking to dig up ammunition to use on Marten. WTF?!? This is how lovers treat each other?
If Marten had linked up with a guy who had past dirt on Claire would she have meekly gone off to a table by herself? I doubt it.
I hope Marten tells Claire to enjoy her evening and that when she gets home be ready to sleep on the couch, as she is not getting into the bedroom, let alone the bed.

I really hope that this doesn't end with Claire raking Marten over the coals for telling Padma to go fly a kite. I don't blame her for her interest in and concern over his apparent past error in judgement, but I hate that canonically speaking, Marten seems to have been a douchebag and an asshole for not wanting to go see Padma on her last night in town. She may not have been happy with his choice, but the onus was at least as much on her to treat him with some... I don't know... compassion, understanding? As it was on him to forgive her ghosting him. Turning down a booty call from somebody who couldn't give you the time of day otherwise doesn't make you an asshole. Not even if it was your last chance to get together.
The general acceptance that Marten was the bad actor in this thread rubbed me wrong the first time we went through it. I am curious to see what we'll learn about Padma's side of the story, but I really hope that Claire can see both... which will be hard, because Marten can hardly be expected to stand up for himself.

From what Renee said in panel 6, I'm not entirely sure that she knows Padma's side of the story herself... or is interested in relaying it accurately!
As I said in my first post above, this is basically a Claire character arc. We'll learn a lot about her by how she reacts to Renee's more-or-less malicious gossip.

... You're right. Shit. :laugh:
Well maybe we'll hear Padma's second hand side of the story? :psyduck:
JoeCovenant:
Go on Claire!
Act all unreasonable about something that doesn't actually concern you in the slightest!
Go on Renee!
Dish that dirt!
Go on Marten... Dump her!
(Is my 'I just don't like Claire's character' showing too much?) :angel:
