--- Quote from: SeaWoodStage on 26 Oct 2020, 12:08 ---I've got to admit, my first reading of it was that Clinton was seeing if he had his first choice option before going with a second. But other posters are right, there are other possibilities. The second most obvious understanding (to me personally) is that he was asking Brun if she finds him attractive, because he's just generally nervous about anyone finding him (Clinton) attractive, including Elliot, and was looking for some reassurance?

That's a distinct possibility. I also hardly think that Clinton is alone amongst single people for having multiple crushes. Finding out which ones are viable or not isn't setting up say, Elliot for "second prize" status, but merely making the process simpler. I honestly wish that I had his courage these days.
SeaWoodStage:
I hope so too! Mind you, that's partly my personal desire to see every character that I like in healthy, happy relationships. Not something that really lends itself to the writing of comics, I imagine :-)
OOps sorry, my above comment was in reply to @bright although I also agree with you @hedgie. Being single and actively looking is a frightful maze and anyone that lands on their feet is lucky imo.
I know that when I was single, I definitely sniffed around and explored my options. I tried to be direct about it though.
Tormuse:
Oof, at first glance, it looks like Jeph is shooting down the Clinton/Brun/Elliot ship, but I have a hard time believing he would set it up like this without having some kind of payoff. I'm still curious to see where this goes.

Clinton's still just starting to figure this stuff out, and is probably a stereotypical nerd in terms of experience navigating human romantic emotions. I'm a bit more experienced, and rather bruised and battered as a result, but still, people don't make sense.

Lol, geez, Brun, if you're gonna be that brutal, why not just kick him in the nuts and be done with it?
