--- Quote from: themacnut on 11 Jul 2016, 18:37 ---Yep, Clinton has already been tried and convicted in the court of Renee, and It would really take a lot if work on his part to get her to reverse her decision. And a face-to-face meeting between them could make things worse - Jeph forbid that he tries to show off his robot hand and it jumps on Renee's boob.
He'd never be able to convince her he didn't somehow do it on purpose, and his status would be upgraded to "Megacreep" in her eyes. No, Brun's gonna be forced to choose...

More importantly, to me anyway, is that he doesn't have or need to reverse that decision. He acted far and above what most other people would do in the same situation.
Hopefully Brun will sort out Renee herself though

Renee already has Clint-on pegged as a creep and doesn't seem the most reasonable of people out there (may change once we get to know her better though) so compromise doesn't seem likely

"...[A]nd some compromise."
I imagine they'd have a talk, along with some of the other main characters vouching for Clinton (albeit somewhat poorly in some cases).

Well, he *does* tend to come off that way even (especially) with people who have met him. He had Marten grabbing a sword, Momo zapping him, and Hanners threatening him with a hose. He's getting better (yay character development), but still has problems dealing with a lot of his social skills. Even if he and Renee meet, he may still have trouble showing her that he's a decent person.

Why the F*** should Renee matter in that regard? What Brun wants in her relationships is what should matter in the end. If, and yes at this point in the story cycle it is "if", she comes to desire having Clinton in her life then _that_ is what matters not what ever Renee thinks. In the end, Brun is an adult woman who has not been legally adjudicated as being mentally insufficient. Therefore she can, by law, decide who she is in a relationship with. Period.
themacnut:
I agree with you that Renee should not matter at all. However, she is bossy and meddlesome which means she will almost certainly stick her nose into Brun's relationships in the name of protecting her. Plus, Brun seems to respect her opinion somewhat, so Renee does factor into the Brun's (possible) relationship with Clinton.
Most likely Brun is going to have to put her foot down and tell Renee in no uncertain terms to back the f*** off. Clinton won't try, he'll be too intimidated by Renee's...force of personality (and probably by threats of force from her). And if he does, there's at least a 50% chance he'll make things worse.
