TheEvilDog:
And for her next magic trick, Claire will stick both her feet into her mouth while frantically chasing her brother down the street.
Loki:
Ohgodamn.
This situation hits close to home. Working up the to ask someone out, while being convinced it will surely go well... Having one's hopes crushed with one sentence... that feeling really sucks.
BenRG:
The old proverb is: "He who hesitates is lost". Clinton, old pal, you hesitated and you lost, at least this round. This is what indecision and not striking when the iron is hot always gets you! I hope that he's not going to blame Claire for this. She's been pushing him to act on this pretty consistently from what we've seen; Clinton just didn't take her advice and now he's reaping the harvest that he'd sown!
Still, Emily didn't say he was dumped, only that she didn't have the time for anything formal. So, he and she can still hang out at lunchtime and the like, if he's willing to make that effort.
Th viability of this ship really has always depended on whether Clinton was brave enough to act. We'll see how things go forwards from here!
Tova:
Well, the tactic of simply popping in for a coffee on a regular basis to say hi does have a successful* precedent...
* Well, initially successful... :-\

Poor Clinton.
Oh yes - been there, done that. Haven't we all?
More often never getting the courage to even ask - and then much later in life, finding out that being rejected is actually less painful than spending the rest of your life regretting missed opportunities.
The worst for Clinton would be if, having declared she has no time for dates, Emily suddenly got into a very public romance with somebody else. I don't think Jeph would go there, though.
