Is it cold in here?:
Well, I don't find Clinton attractive, and wondered whether my orientation was interfering with my esthetic judgement.
fayelovesbubbles:
Clinton is quite cute.
Roko is pretty cute too.

Nah. Personally, Clinton is not that attractive; to me, anyway. Others do disagree.
Morituri:
Clinton is reasonably handsome; certainly guys homelier than he aren't romantically handicapped by their looks if they're reasonably confident and have some empathy for their partners. And he's a decent guy, although he's a tendency to be a "rescuer" which sometimes covers a tendency against relationships based on a presumption of equality. I wouldn't expect him to be dateless for more than a few weeks longer than he continues to agonize and self-sabotage his own confidence about being dateless. It's stopping that dynamic that's the tricky part.
Roko scores a big ol' question mark. Physically she's reasonably pretty, but I see several personality traits I would consider fairly off-putting. She's prickly and tends to want to pre-emptively make problems for other people instead of allowing them to notice she's making problems for herself. And that covers a crippling lack of self-confidence coupled with a need to prove herself that I would frankly find scary enough to stay the hell away from. I mean, I empathize with her, I feel for her, I hope the best for her, but I doubt that being her romantic partner is going to contribute to someone's happiness.
Shipping her with Clinton is not wishing the best for Clinton. Or at least, it's not wishing Clinton an easy future where he simply steps into a happy relationship. Happiness if Roko reaches it with anyone is going to be hard won and long in the making. And perhaps wonderful in the long run for having been something achieved instead of something discovered, but it's just not going to be easy.
WoaLG:
Does anybody else get the impression that Jeph has just given up on the no shipping rule? Cause the last few arcs have basically opened a floodgate of them.
