To me, nudity is an act of both intimacy and trust. Panel 4 just has this weird dichotomy of clothes strewn everywhere, suggesting that Marten and Claire wanted to be naked in bed now, not in a few minutes time, yet the duvet is neat, suggesting no under-the-covers action and the two of them don't even seem to have been touching in panel 1. It just strikes me as an interesting nuance of their relationship that they have this urgent need to be together in this intimate manner even if they're not going to do anything but lie next to each other.

I'm not sure if you're right or not, but I like that idea. That kind of without thinking, both of their minds are sort of going on autopilot to get together, just for intimacy and not necessarily sex. I've seen couples who've been away from each other for a while do that for hugs - just sort of zone out and nonverbally be like "Get out of my way, everyone - hugs needed!" Then they can finally touch each other and you can see relief just flood over them. It's really cute to think of Marten and Claire having that sort of response with each other - even if we never know for sure whether they really do, it's a very sweet idea.

I'll do you one better by linking to a specific strip that I had to look up just to argue that Marten's probably in his boxers .
Zebediah:
Two people in a sexual relationship together in bed naked? Shocking! :-o
Seriously, they're young and in love and still in a relatively early stage of their relationship. A not-atypical pattern for such people would be to help each other out of their clothes, have sex, then lie in bed talking for a while, then have more sex, then talk some more, then sleep, then wake up and have more sex, then shower together and get dressed and go get breakfast.
This stage of a relationship can last anywhere from a few weeks to seventy years, depending on the couple. :-D
Is it cold in here?:
They're lucky Bubbles came through the door and not through the wall.
Toes are very practical things. I wonder how people in robot bodies manage without them.
brasca:
Marten and Claire should consider themselves fortunate that they didn't exclaim "oh no" loudly and repeatedly or it would've activated a security protocol where Bubbles would crash through the wall.
