When you think about it, Clarissa is a merger of Claire (nerdy and awkward) and Faye (assertive and aggressive). Because of the fact that Jeph's footer note confirms that she and Marten had briefly flirted with being a thing, I'm wondering if Jeph is telling us that Marten has a 'type'!
Meanwhile, I suspect that Tai is making up in her head all these possible things that Marten could have been pressured into doing that he's covering up with an obvious self-conscious lie!

In fact, I know several people who've been playing D&D via Skype* while in lockdown.
*other online telecommunication services are available
BenRG:
That's something I'd like to see: Competitive esports RPing with face cameras and a 'narrator mode' where the GM or player can address just the spectators.
DM (Narrator Mode): "Alas! For our heroes don't know that they're walking into a devilish trap!" *Sadistic giggle*

As for your assessment on Claire, I can't say I see that the same way. Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't this only the second time CLaire has gotten high, and only for a very specific reason this time (i.e. graduating)? To me that hardly qualifies as trying to redefine her as a stoner, at least at this point. Of course it's possible that JJ takes it into that direction as Claire could be susceptible to weed addiction due to some anxieties she may have. If so, perhaps the narrative could develop into not so much about Tai having a problem herself, but about Tai being an enabler/facilitator.

well second time as an event, though each event in the strip is spread over several pages, making it more of a story point
and between that ive had a literal TON of negative interactions with stoners thus giving me a negative outlook on recreational drug use, and
that im trans and LOVED claire being introduced as a wholesome person just trying to lvie a normal life at the start and dont approve of that
things turned for the worse to damage that image

As a QA line inspector, I can very much relate to the negative experiences with stoners (and other drug-addled sorts). Suffice it to say that following simple rules (generally regarding PPE) is quite difcicult for some of them. Unfortunately, we're too short-handed on my shift at the moment to simply just can all of them.
Tova:
I'm a little disappointed he's too embarrassed (or whatever) to admit his DnD past.
