--- Quote from: Undrneath on 17 Apr 2015, 02:24 ---But is Emily as inexperienced as Claire? All I remember is she wasn't sure Clinnn-tonnn was her type. She very well might have been on many dates in the past.
--- End quote ---
Given her looks, probably many first dates. Given her weirdness, probably much fewer second dates. But as far as actual relationships go, they are equally inexperienced.
Is it cold in here?:
OE has a point. Yes, "faithful heart may have froward tongue", it's believable that Claire is loving and supportive deep down, but my idea of characterization would have included some brief example of that by now.
Aziraphale:
There's something to their interactions that suggests more than garden-variety sibling rivalry, even given both characters' apparent emotional immaturity. What's odd is that we know the Dora/Sven backstory, but comparatively little of the Claire/Clinton backstory, even though they're both regular (and lately, regularly foregrounded) characters. I don't expect Strip 500-level drama, but a bit of explanation would go a long way toward making sense of their dynamic.
Kugai:
I suspect it may have its roots in Claires Transition.
Maybe back in the early days Clinton was confused over what his then brother was doing/going through and wasn't as supportive as he is now (what happened to his hand may figure into that as well).
They may have somewhat sorted things out between them now, but there may still be some remaining, minor confusion and resentment on both parts from that period.
TRVA123:
gah. i like Marten, I like Claire. I even like the idea of them together.
but I am so sick of it. Show us something else. Anything else. Fuck, give us 20 strips of Steves moving story eating a bowl of cereal.
I don't know what it is, Marten and Dora didn't make me feel like this, but I don't think that Marten and Dora are better suited than Marten and Claire. I just went back and reread a bunch of those strips.. and i can't put my finger on it. The overall energy is different, in a more appealing way. Maybe its because the story jumps between a lot more plotlines much more quickly.
