Re: Questionable Content 7: Will Work For Makeouts
I think you have massively misjudged the timeline of those events. And Marten was uncomfortable with it when Tai decided to invite Dora to that party which she then couldn't make it to because of the date with Jim, just as you feel he should have been; but after that, a more seemly amount of time passed and he got over it. I don't see the problem here.

Re: Questionable Content 7: Will Work For Makeouts
Dora's issue with Marten was that she got with him like three days after the whole Faye/Marten angst thing ended with Faye's admission that she wasn't ready to be in a relationship. Dora always worried that she was just a second choice rather than someone Marten actually wanted. She doesn't have to worry about that with Tai because Tai is the one who started things, and she doesn't have any exes to speak of, just a bunch of one-night stands basically.

Re: Questionable Content 7: Will Work For Makeouts
And yet that still hasn't stopped her from having issues with meeting Tai's one night standees.
Edit: Also, we need a new thread and consequent title. I vote for: Questionable Content 8: Clairiten, the cure for what ails you.Last edited by Yana; 2014-11-13 at 12:45 PM.

Re: Questionable Content 7: Will Work For Makeouts
I'm not seeing either of these things. Tai is as close to Marten as she has ever been, though the narrative focuses less on them. She did nothing involving "stealing" Dora* - no relationship sabotage, no advice to break up, nothing. As for Dora's issues, the jealousy is clearly still there given how she reacted to one of Tai's associates. A particular issue related to Marten isn't there, but that's about it.
*Putting aside the weirdness of the phrase.I would really like to see a game made by Obryn, Kurald Galain, and Knaight from these forums.

Re: Questionable Content 7: Will Work For Makeouts
Uh... I guess I'll stay away from the anti-TaixDora debate because I really don't see anything going against it but... oh, well.
It seems QC-town is pretty tiny, or Marten's mom has the natural momdar for making her son feel uncomfortable.
As for a new title... I'd go for the very simplistic "D'awwwwwwwww" instead of "I ship it". Mostly because then I will never get that damn song out of my head!

Ponies not only make ME want to be a better person than I was before they entered my life, they make me want to HELP OTHERS be better people too.
And that is a GOOD thing by any definition.

Re: Questionable Content 7: Will Work For Makeouts
I agrre about the first, I seem to have forgotten that Marten and Dora haven't seen each other for a while after breakup. Also, about that party.. IIRC, Dora came at the end, walked Tai home and the next day Tai came to the coffee shop nad they kissed and set up a date.
Even if we ignore Marten and put him out of the picture, the fact still remains that less then a day passed between Dora's conversation with Jim in which she came to a conclusion that she shouldn't be dating anyone at the moment and her hookup with Tai... :shrugs:
So, basically, instead of Marten, she now has a girl whose only relationship experience is a bunch of one-night stands with very lax moral and faithfulness (is that even a word?) standard.
true, but at that point they were all single and both Dora and Faye were gunning for Marten and Faye "backed out" which led to Dora hooking up with Marten. I know, I'm simplifying, but in the end, I never got the feeling that Dora was a second choice.

Re: Questionable Content 7: Will Work For Makeouts
There's no reason to suspect lax moral standards. Everyone went into the one-night stands expecting exactly that. Nobody was misled, nobody had their trust broken, so on and so forth.
She changed her mind on short notice, when presented with a new situation. I don't find that unbelievable at all, let alone unacceptable. I've done that - I turned down my ex when she asked me out, giving explicit reasons for it. Having voiced those reasons, I realized that they were actually really dumb, and changed my mind.I would really like to see a game made by Obryn, Kurald Galain, and Knaight from these forums.

Re: Questionable Content 7: Will Work For Makeouts
Good timing, Marten; she was about to go Chernobyl.
There was something here and in the avatar box, and there will eventually be again. I just need to figure out what I want...
