--- Quote from: MrNumbers on 08 Aug 2022, 18:02 ---Okay, so, I just want to point out what a big stressing point being asked to move for a relationship is to Marten specifically. I don't think this is signposting Marten leaving the cast, I think this is signposting Marten being presented with his personal trigger point.

As against that, though, look. Certainly in the real world, western Massachusetts is a hard, hard, hard place for librarians to get work. There is a lot of competition for jobs, very few fulltime positions, and it's quite common for those who can get jobs to string together a dozen hours a week in this system, a dozen hours a week in that system, and a dozen hours a week waiting tables at the diner in the next town over.
That's one. The other is that this is just plain a transient college town. I *live* in Northampton, on the 2nd floor of a duplex, and we're about to get our fourth set of downstairs roommates in four years. By the exigencies of comicdom, it's been an extremely stable group of twentysomethings for a long time.

I know somebody had been keeping track of how much time has actually passed in the QC Universe, and if it wasn't for these multi-months time skips, we'd still be in the first year I'm pretty sure. :P Even with them, it's like less than 5 in-universe years I think?

--- Quote --- Halifax Central Library - Halifax, NS

If you conduct a quick Google search for the best libraries across Canada, almost every list is bound to feature this glass giant in Halifax.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that this is the 'cool library' where Claire is interviewing.
Tova:
Is the claim that "Canada's barely another country" actually a thing that people think? :roll:
