Near Lurker:
It probably doesn't bear thought either way.  I can read her as aroused, but if she is, it's best to leave it at that rather than go down that road.

Only localized.

I'm going to assume they meant the military style one, based off the fact that they're in the U.S., and that they wouldn't be talking about a crib.    Also, it seems that this whole storyline is leaving awkward-waves behind it, but it's definitely been amusing. 

And Marten has the best response to Claire having awkward-thoughts now:  "Well, excuse me for not dropping my pants right in front of you".

So what's weird?  Many people in this forum are not American, and so discussion over the meanings of words used in the comic (or simply in discussions on the forum itself) is commonplace.  Indeed there are people here with a particular interest in language and words who relish these discussions.

That reminds me, I should look for a military surplus cot. Those are so much nicer than the crappy ones that have the same basic design as a military cot (folds into a small, thin, rectangular package, and folds out such that rods are inserted on either end to tie it all together), but are cheap Wal-Mart grade.

Welu:
This comic eerily reminds me of the first time my partner and I shared a bed, which happened to be in a hotel.
