Comic Discussion > QUESTIONABLE CONTENT
WCDT strips 3711 to 3715 (2nd-6th April 2018)
BenRG:
Mrs A wants her kids to be settled and happy. I'm wondering if the important conversation will be the one she has with Brun, possibly whilst bonding over chronological family heirlooms. If Brun 'seems like a nice girl', we can expect Mrs A to not-so-unsubtly shove her and Clinton together.
Tova:
She doesn't do anything so undignified as shove. She provides the deliciously tasty treats and lets nature take its course. :mrgreen:
Jakk Frost:
Being a little pedantic, because that's just how I am, on the caption from yesterday's comic, that should be "drunk and disorderly". :-P
awgiedawgie:
I was thinking that - rather than having a convo with Brun - Mrs A might have a little heart-to-heart with Clinton while Brun goes to admire the clock. Kind of get an idea of whether Clinton thinks of her as a friend, or as a "friend". The situation when she invited Marten over for pancakes was different, because Claire lived there, and was constantly talking about Marten, so her mom already had a pretty good idea how Claire felt. And as a parent myself, I don't think she invited Marten over to nudge them together (although it did provide the perfect occasion for that final move), but rather she just wanted to meet this guy that her daughter had been talking about so much.
TheEvilDog:
To be fair, Mrs. Augustus' matchmaking style tends to be much more subtle, a gentle nudge to get things rolling.
Claire's matchmaking is more like taking two dolls together and mashing them together, going "And Kisssssssssssss".
One comes from experience (and being a Deus Ex Machina) and the other is about setting up a story where "And Kissssss" ends up with people hurt.
