I'm expecting two possible outcomes right now:
1. Clinton has a drunken hook-up with an unexpected 'spoiler' character ...

Pictoria. Who is drunk off her butt because of a disappointment in her excessively complicated love life.

I'm not picking up on the 'toxic' vibe? I see a lot of discussion since people all view Clinton's actions through their own filters, but apart from a couple of outliers, it has remained respectful.
--- Quote from: Thrillho on 30 Oct 2020, 08:50 ---Clinton reminds me a lot of myself sometimes, at a younger age at least - and I was generally a nice guy, I was generally compassionate, but a lot of that came from shyness and anxiety and no desire to assert dominance. Drinking, even a few drinks, can remove the natural barriers of anxiety and worry and shyness and fill you with confidence, and if you are untutored in how to use something as tremendously powerful as 'feeling confident' then you can end up being like Clinton is here. Doesn't have to actually be drunk. Just the edges sanded off.

Agreed, being drunk can have some... unexpected consequences. I have been very drunk exactly once in my life, and thinking back on what I said and did that night, I cringe. It was like I was a completely different person. I have never drunk that much again since (at least, not that much in such a short time period). Plus, the hangover the next day was brutal, I have no desire to experience that again. How other people willingly go through that on a regular basis is beyond me.

[sigh] It'll be sad if the first m/m relationship in QC is just an awkward fizzle. Such potential, such disappointment. [crosses fingers]
Oenone:
I just feel like Clinton isn’t acting like a nice person here. I don’t think being drunk is an excuse for being a so self absorbed towards someone who has been nothing but nice to you.
And it’s even worse because they’re at Elliot’s job so they really can’t have the one-on-one focused convo they need.
This is honestly a horrible not-a-date.

It's not the first M/M relationship in the QC-verse, since we already saw Marten's dad get married to Maurice.
I highly doubt that this is the end for any romance between Elliot and Clinton. Jeph is very big on making his characters grow and evolve, so I can see a lot of talking and discussion happening with those two in the future.
