--- Quote from: Akima on 27 Sep 2011, 02:13 ---Oh man... Elliot. Sack up please.
--- End quote ---
I was waiting for someone else to say it.
I've been there. Literally. A chick I was nuts over, but hadn't confessed my feelings to, moved halfway across the country. Saying goodbye was very hard.
Was it my fault things never had a chance to move forward? Yep...
...but you'd never catch me crying about it, especially in public. :psyduck:
Throg:
Well I guess it's official then.
Aw, Eliot, man the f--- up. It's kinda embarrassing when a lug the size of Montana loses it like that.
But from Eliot's expressions in the first three panels -- it did look like a buildup to an explosion, not a breakdown.
themacnut:
Ah Elliot, Elliot, Elliot. Weeping in a bar next to a guy you barely know, instead of taking action to be with the girl you want. No wonder you had no chance with her. I second Akima's call to sack up already. Nobody else can do it for you and it's your LAST and ONLY chance to get with her.
Blackjoker:
As an odd question, could Elliot be pining for Hannelore? Ok, maybe a silly question...or maybe not *attempts search fu to find picture with weird smiling Hannelore and the guy she was smiling at* I can't seem to find it right now but perhaps that was Eliot. If so, maybe he was still pining for her and when he saw her in the secret bakery with Marten, and later realizing that she wasn't with Marten, wanted to try to talk to her but wasn't sure what to say without feeling awkward. He mentioned it once or twice and Padma kept reccomending Eliot talk to him, but due to Eliotts tendency to look creepy and the tendency of the rest of the staff to alienate Marten this was rather impractical. Padma set this up in part to give Eliot a chance to talk to MArten about it...
Wait, no, I'm stupid, that wouldn't cause Eliot to cry like that at the mention of Padma. Though it does make me wonder why Eliot was so damned...insistent on dragging Marten off.

I had the same thought a while back, hair's a little different and I don't remember the guy being that big. Would mean they've freaked each other out across the time-line, after his Okapi comment.

And Wil's become the kind of Barkeep who knows everyone's name.
