BenRG:
We're at another obvious point where Jeph could do almost anything.
With the exception of Faye reconciling with Dora (and that's not likely to happen immediately, given either protagonist's personality) there remains little to be said and done in the current time-frame. To me, the most likely 'non-skip' option is events of the late evening with Claire and Marten quizzing Faye and maybe Hanners about what happened at the support group and, personally, I think that's unlikely. Unless there are some specific jokes Jeph wants to tell, there is little to be gained in story terms to rehashing last week's strips as a four-way conversation.
My guess is that the next obvious thing to do in the current time-frame is pick up on exactly what Clinton 'hanging out' with Emily entails.
What would I expect to see in a time skip? Maybe to leap forwards to the run up to Thanksgiving. Will Claire spend it with her family or with her new and expanding circle of friends centred around Marten and Tai? That could make for some interesting character writing and maybe give Jeph an excuse to expand on Mrs A's feelings about her oldest child spreading her wings and flying away.
However, knowing Jeph, he'll surprise us all.
Pilchard123:
My guess? Butts.

It was tough, not making a new thread saturday night again. But other people need a chance. And I didn't have a good poll.
Anyway kinda thinking we're getting 'Thanks for the advice, yadda yadda SO, what's a nerd like you need a support group for anyway?' Which has me half thinking we should hold off on that, because you don't want Claire to JUST be the trans girl. But the other half of me wants to see it anyway.

Or where will Marten spend it? With Claire and her mother (and Clinton) or with his mother (and Jim and Sam)? Either is rich in comedic possibilities.
Rghfrgl:
Ok, Jim & Veronica and Marten & Claire need married immediately.
Two Mom's and FOUR dads!
