BenRG:
I love how Brun basically continues the conversation about deodorant from the last time they met as if it is the most significant thing  that they could talk about. Of course, to her, it might be, given how much underarm damp annoys her!

Of course, the question Clinton is about to ask is whether Brun would be mad if Clinton started dating Elliot. The answer, of course, will be: "Why should I be mad?" What will be interesting is how Brun reacts after she's had an opportunity to observe them together and actually think about how her brain is reacting to the experience.

There may be an assurance in there that Clinton is a good friend and maybe Brun may express a degree of uncertainty about whether there is a difference between that and dating because she hasn't really experienced it herself. Depending on where Jeph intends to take this, maybe Clinton will explain it as best as he can. At the end of this (maybe next Friday), Brun nods sagely, thanks him for explaining and then saying: "In that case, I feel that way about..." The person she names will be the 'wham' revelation and will determine whether Jeph intends to follow up the BCE triangle hints or whether he wants to Joss the whole thing here and now.


EDIT

TIL: a verb that was new to me, although its meaning was thoroughly familiar and immediately apparent.

GAH ! I hate this line of argument.

"He's an 8 out of 10 and she's only a 5, so he can do a lot better". Gnagl.



--- Quote from: St.Clair on 22 Oct 2020, 22:07 ---You know, considering the difficulty that many of this cast seem to have with clearly communicating to others their interest, I have to think that Yay (and Gary and any other super-AIs out there) must occasionally marvel that we actually manage to reproduce in sufficient numbers to keep the species viable.

Regular heterosexual relationships that could procreate if they wanted to are a bit of a rarity on QC. I think last count is only three (Steve + Cosette, Penpen + Wil, Marigold + Dale).

He can do better though, how else to put it. Their personalities and interests don't mesh and the only reason Eliot is interested in Clinton is because Eliot has major confidence and self-esteem issues

Its a shame because hes a decent guy

Cornelius:
I've learned to stay out of this kind of discussion way back in college. It's only the people in the relationship that really know how it is. The couple everyone was shaking their heads at, still is together. The ones everyone approved of as a perfect match, all broke up.

Granted, they were shaking their heads at my relationship at the time as well, and were proven right.
