I've just got the feeling that her first name is Clarice.

ReindeerFlotilla was talking about the younger Ms. Augustus, the one we know as Claire, I thought.

All my siblings have names starting with the letter T. The tradition was ended with me after my mom vetoed my dad's suggestion of "Terry".

I was named after my grandparent. So is my dad after his. And his dad... So we're all a long line of "José / Jose" (Depending on middle name we write it one way or the other)

... or waited two more.  :-\

Not cool, Marten.

--- End quote ---

Why "not cool"? Tai's Marten and Claire's boss. He had to have the discussion with her. It's also likely that he asked her to keep it quiet, per Claire's wishes, but also suspected she wouldn't (hence what he says in the last panel, and a facial expression that reads as equal parts amused and bemused.

I didn't get the sense that Claire wanted their relationship kept secret at the office so much as she wanted to make sure Marten understood that she planned to be completely professional about it, and wanted him to do the same.
