She's going to ask him out on a date, of course. There, I said it.

Is it cold in here?:

Please, not the t-slur, even though it was in quotes. "Trans fetishist" would communicate just the same thought. There's probably an even better term.

Much as we ridicule Marten for his love life, there has actually been a reasonable run of women chasing him: Dora, Cosette, and Padma.

Claire chasing him would be too simple to be funny. Maybe she's going to ask him for advice about adopting an AnthroPC because she's so impressed with Pintsize.

I do not recall the name of the trope, but it's a recurring theme in comedy that a character who is allegedly odd and homely and hard up for companionship gets a suspiciously large amount of it. Leonard from Big Bang Theory or Alan from Two and a Half Men for example, to cite the Chuck Lorre abuse of it.

Being impressed by Pintsize is the most unlikely theory yet.

Is it cold in here?:
I voted Other, with my candidate being Yelling Bird.

Maybe Claire is looking for advice about how to take care of her pet Library Spider. Or she needs counseling after looking in the black bin.

--- End quote ---

Welcome, new person!

I think it was our resident expert on trans* issues, ZoeB, who mentioned that might be because hormonal treatment can change eye color as a side effect.

So it's either that or color lenses or Jeph simply forgot.
