Wow! How long has it been since we last saw Sven? I think it was when he and Dora promised each other that they'd at least try to have something resembling a healthy adult relationship and they sort of also admitted that they wanted to not have this simmering suspicion and resentment between them.

I suppose I can't blame Faye for her reaction. There was nothing about her relationship with Sven that wasn't a screw up that both of them did literally all they could to make more hurtful. That said, a long time has passed and there's been an awful lot of water under the bridge. Maybe the time has come to just close the book and get back to being 'two people who know each other because of having Dora in common'.

Does Sven know about Dora and Tai. I'd say 'yes' because there's a sort of thing as a 'phone and it therefore would have taken Dora maybe a minute to tell him whilst she and Tai were haggling with the budget ring vendor.

I honestly don't think it's going to go that way. Sven doesn't have that sort of power over Faye. He's an annoying jerk sometimes but that fiasco way back when isn't a major thing in Faye's emotional life anymore. Actually, it wouldn't surprise me if this segment of the arc will be Faye realising that Sven is an annoying jerk but really that's all he is and he isn't in any way crushing her heart anymore; indeed he hasn't for a very long time.

Whether that is also the case for Sven I have no idea. However, I strongly suspect that an ironic part of him thinks that Faye rejecting him an then getting into a relationship with a female combat android probably 'figures'. If anything, I wonder if he's going to instead pester her about Hannelore's whereabouts and status.

I think Sven is nothing more than a nuisance for Faye. Amidst being in a bar and the ensuing temptation, plus the burrito incident, Sven is just "the icing on the cake". Faye's fed up with him, and I think she'll just ignore him and get back to the others and say "yo dora, your jerk of a brother is around"

Ancillary Justice Reference.

Nice  :laugh:


Go away, Svorn!

cybersmurf:
is Dora's brother Faye's svarn enemy?

She made it clear she doesn't want to talk to you, go away, Sven.

--- End quote ---

Expecting him to not talk to her if she doesn't want to: yes, very reasonable
Wanting him gone when it's his sister's engagement party: not reasonable at all, especially since Faye and Sven were basically in an okay place already anyway
