cybersmurf:
I stand corrected. It is about being at a bar. Admittedly, it would be easier if it were "casual" drinking where only a few drinks are involved, especially if everyone has to go to work the next day, but this is a celebration. Or worse. But as Station once stated, the effect is basically the same.

Since both Tai and Dora were unavailable, chances are good dora said yes and they celebrated by banging. Or got married already. If she hadn't, at least one of them would have talked to Marten, I believe.

And I swear to God, I still expect a Steve eats cereal filler just to troll people and drag the resolution out a bit.

TheEvilDog:
I just hope Steve doesn't get McLeaned.

You really think so?

Marten: She wants us all to come out for drinks tonight. How about I offer our place instead?

Dishonest answer:

Faye: No, no, it's fine. I can handle bein' in a bar.

Honest answer:

Faye: No, no, it's fine, but I may need some help with this.

It seems so out of character for her to decide to hide this from Marten, of all people.

Penquin47:
It's not hypocrisy for Faye to tell Marten that he can follow Claire when she didn't follow Angus.  She didn't tell him he had to, or that he was a bad person if he decided not to.  She said he could, and he should at least seriously consider it.  Irony, maybe, but not hypocrisy.

Incidentally I came up with the correct response to Claire's fangirling: "Nah, they're not looking at wedding outfits, they're fixing the problem with the proposal and looking at rings.  First things first, y'know?"

BenRG:
I agree with Mr Intrepid. This is about Faye's condition colliding head-on with her desire to be there for Dora and her disinclination to make this about her (at least in her own mind). She doesn't want to spoil Dora's big day because of her 'weakness' and she doesn't want to distract Marten by giving him reason to worry about her. It's silly but I do think it's in character for Faye to want to avoid in any way drawing attention to her own needs in a situation like this.

What I think is good is that Faye is not walking into this situation all full of breezy self-confidence. So long as she is aware of her own difficulties, it will be less easy for her to be caught out by it. Additionally, Bubbles at least is likely to be able to keep watch on Faye without becoming distracted!
