--- Quote from: eschaton on 18 Aug 2020, 19:44 ---I can't imagine anyone normal being turned on by any sort of erotic scenario narrated by their sibling. It's too damn close to incest. I mean, a family member is telling you an erotic story, and then you like pop a woodie or something?

Yeah, I'm surprised nobody else is touching on this part.

I thought it was a bit weird, but so are those two... She advised him to visualise a situation with someone (literally) unrelated, and got carried away in supporting the visualising because Claire. Clinton's reaction could be more embarrassed than "popping a woodie"? Though I do think it looks like he likes the idea...

To be fair, although it's obviously anecdotal, I for one would get all kinds of embarrassed and flustered with someone so aggressively pursuing an explicitly detailed line of questioning like this, even if -- as Pintsize pointed out -- it hadn't yet extended to the idea of outright sexual acts.
But then again, I'm a lifelong introvert who wouldn't willingly go volunteering my explicit thoughts on sex without a substantially good reason to do so and a strong likelihood of the person on the other side being accepting and non-judgmental. Some people are a lot more comfortable with casual sexual talk, and all the best to them.
--- Quote from: Wombt on 19 Aug 2020, 15:32 ---As for the comic, I hope things go the polyam route because I've enjoyed various character interactions that might be expanded upon, but right now I'm just really rooting for the Clinton/Elliot element to happen because this is...very cute.

As a tangent, it comes to mind that I seriously don't think that the comic has yet depicted an AI-to-AI romantic relationship -- but then again, there was that one strip of Winslow being stunned speechless over Roko, of which absolutely nothing has resulted since.
Kairi:
Alright because a few posts have alluded to this but not said it specifically, imma explain: if you're on the asexual spectrum, you might not think about relationships/sex much. You don't have to be fully asexual to be on that spectrum! When I figured out I was demisexual (can develop sexual attraction, but not immediately/easily, though it differs for different people) it explained SO MUCH in my life. Most of my "crushes" early in life were basially intense feelings of "I would really like to be friends with that person." Sexuality just... didn't enter into it much. I experienced/lived this as heterosexuality though because that's what society told me these feelings meant. Once I figured out my level of sexual attraction was just different from others, and had a few specific, ah, realizations, I did discover very late in life (comparatively) that I'm bisexual. The possibility is definitely, definitely there lol.
tl;dr: people realizing their sexuality later in life is a thing
oh, and Clinton saying "I don't know how that works" relating to whether guys are hot? SO RELATABLE. I had to develop a vocabulary of what "hot" meant, so I could talk to people and know what they meant when they said someone was "hot." But I didn't... feel it, myself. So, having learned the vocabulary for one kind of attraction and not another totes makes sense to me!!

There was Seven and the previously-just-an-arm AI whose name I can't remember for the life of me, and my archive-fu is not very good.

That would be Jeremy
