Emperor Norton:
It's not just that she is assuming Clinton is a bad person with no evidence, she is steamrolling Brun's interpretation of things as well. Whatever her issues with social cues, etc. Brun was there, and Renee was not. And she is jsut trampling over it like what Brun experienced means nothing.
I'm not assuming Renee is a bad person, but what she is doing in this comic, as well as earlier on the phone with Clinton, is straight up messed up.
Tova:
She's not quite streamrolling Brun's interpretation. She was suspicious. Arguably understandably so. But she has conceded to Brun's opinion in today's comic (even if it was mainly to avoid a fight).
I don't think what she's doing is 'messed up' at all. She's concerned for Brun's welfare. Maybe overly so, but I think saying it's messed up is going a bit too far. We know what she doesn't. The omniscient viewpoint, remember? It's in the sig.
Edit: Oh bugger, I forgot. It's not in the sig anymore. But we know all kinds of things the characters we are watching don't, and we need to remember that when evaluating their actions.
Edit 2: Ah, you probably hadn't seen the new comic when you wrote that post, but it's up now!
Edit 3: Talking about a comic where you can only react up to the second last one you've seen can get kind of tricky.
jheartney:
Up at 4 for baking? Secret Bakery Renee she is!
There could also be an element of self-serving in chasing Clinton away. If Brun tries to follow Renee's schedule (i.e. in bed by 9), contact with Clinton could disrupt that.
blt:
My initial feeling was that Brun wasn't comfortable with Renee's hug when she came in, but in these following pages she doesn't seem un-confortable with Renee being close. She's hard to read though, because she doesn't seen to show much discomfort on her face other than when she had Clinton bring her to the hotel.
Renee is a super touchy person though.
SomeCanadianWeirdo:
I sure didn't get the idea she would be huggy in her earlier appearances. Since she was sort of a Faye equivalent punchy would be more expected that huggy.
