Clinton, you adorable doofus.
Now i just want them to make out.
Clinton has really come far from the the annoying scrub of yesteryear.
I keep coming back to this one and just looking at Clinton's facial expressions in the last two panels. Those are priceless. )
I died laughing so hard I re-upped my Patreon _just_ to have a comment section I could squee to.
ok, that was brilliant. I nearly fell off my chair laughing.
MY SHIP IS COMING IN
I am loving this storyline so much :)
DYING. This is the death-by-second-hand-embarrassment content that keeps me coming back XD
I AM SMILING SO HARD RN ❤️
squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! I'm gonna be so disappointed if Clinton isn't into dudes.
Or if Clinton isn't into Elliot
Aw shit
Not relevant to this story line, but extremely relevant to QC - there is an emu on the loose in Doncaster, UK. It's visible, at least sometimes, but as it hasn't been caught yet... https://twitter.com/MyDoncaster/status/1293486416094277632
The same thing happened a few years back in Nanaimo, British Columbia, leading to the immortal headline "Emu on the loose, but not considered flight risk"
I imagine it's been said about a gazillion times, but I want to live in their reality. Not because how cool AI is, but I'm just tired of 2020 in this reality. "1/10 Would not recommend timeline."
This storyline makes me gleeful
Clinton's starburst of realisation in panel 5 is hilarious!
I love them YES
You can't stop there! How am I meant to wait until tomorrow to find out how Clinton takes this???!!!
I've been looking forward to seeing how Elliot was going to approach Clinton. Jeph, you have excelled yourself once again. Well done, sir. BTW, I really couldn't see Brun with either Elliot or Clinton. Neither of them seemed to me to be a good match for her. Millie and Brun? Plenty of potential there. Given Brun's Asperger's/autism, I reckon she would appreciate having a relationship with a non-human, somebody that she can be with without constantly analyzing their behavior. That said, Brun has never shown much interest in sex, so perhaps a purely platonic relationship (as with Renee) would work best for her.
Sometimes people not showing interest in sex is a matter of priorities. As someone on the autism spectrum, I showed an early interest in relationships, but as I came to understand more of how little I recognized what was going on around me compared to how much other people seemed to, I had other priorities by the time puberty came around, and thus didn't show interest in sex until years after puberty. I've talked with others whose delay was decades, for the same reason.

oh my GOD of course elliot disclosed his crush by only hypothetically talking about the crush target TO the crush target he is adorable but OH MY GOSH elliot you big coward <3
I’ve done what Elliot has done, although the person I did this too had a bit of fun and sorta prodded me to say something knowing I was talking about them! XD
Love the way Elliot's face *slowly* reddens a little more each frame as he works up his courage inch by inch and then chickens out too late. XD
Jeph, if they hookup and it's wholesome and all, please consider a patrons only saucy post....
Woo! Not as dense as he could be!
Awwww 🥰🥰
Elliot you beautiful pink-faced baby
That penny took a while to drop, but it made a sweet 'kaching' sound when it landed
oh my god he's an idiot. a big lovable idiot
Little typo: "Of cou_r_se ..."
This is the usual cliffhanger thing we would get on a Friday comic so nice that it’s midweek.
Cliffhange... heh...
I am so very here for this
But... What is he isn't into guys. I know that is an unpopular opinion now but it still happens.
It’s a possibility but given Jeph’s wardrobe choices for Clinton I would bet against it. More likely is that Clinton needs some time to process.
That actually went much, much better than I anticipated.
BRAVE BOY. GOOD BOY. YES.
When two disaster bis collide...
I would definitely be Clinton in this situation! Either that or I'd be constantly thinking "Is this a date or is it not?".
Eeeeeeeep I’ve asked someone out like this before by indirectly doing it and umm it kinda worked out, for a while. God I feel the awkwardness through the screen.
YOU DON"T HAVE TO BEAT CLINTON OVER THE HEAD more than three or four times BEFORE HE GETS THE IDEA
dun dun DUNNNN
OMG Elliot! Yeeeeeaaaaahhhhhh!
I feel like Clinton's last comic should have been half muffled with partially eaten burrito
The redness in his face is g r a d u a l
Panel 5 had me cry laughing. I literally heard the "Boomff!" sound of Clinton's revelation. 🤣
I just LOVE it when a clue-by-four hits not just the target, but also the wielder! Clues abound, and occasionally slap you in the face, or about the head and shoulder.
Ahahaha am dying. I keep re-reading it and it gets me laughing every time. So happy that Clinton finally figured it out; I can't wait to see what happens next.
Fear is the sauce that makes the burrito taste great. Fear the Burrito
You sit down this minute and tell him about your sweet buns
That is literally exactly how my big dumb ass would do this, except for I wouldn't leave my burrito behind.
I made a high enough squee noise that I had to sum-up for my hubby. <3 They are so adorable!
OMG he did it !!! Elliott is so brave 😭💜
This might be the best comic you’ve ever created!!!
Enough clue-by-fours used to build a small house.
CLINTON IT'S YOUR CHANCE, GRAB THAT MAN BEFORE HE LEAVES AND TELL HIM SOME THINGS
Damn Clinton's slow XD Panel 4 probably lasted ages
Finally!
YAY ELIOT!!
Tomorrow: Marigold eating Pop-Tarts
Tbh that sounds very sexy.
lol, same thing Clinton did to Emily that one time.
This is exactly the thing I thought it would be hilarious for Eliot to do if he weren't such a goober I did not take into account the possibility that he might goober his way into it on accident.
Well done. VERY well done.
So, in tomorrow's strip will be a perfect time for Renee to show up, shouting "Ohh yeah! Who here likes fuckin' dudes?" And Brun. And Mr. Scunk. Perfect Elliot experience™
Oh, man, that made me laugh so hard!
typo: "couse" for "course" in the second panel. Took me a couple of rereads to notice it because of all the EMOTIONS, though. :)
Next up, Millie and Brun come into the burrito place.
This is where Clinton says “Wait! Finish your burrito. You can’t have desert if you don’t finish your burrito.”
Gods help all of us if you cliff-hanger this.
HELL YEAH
No you get back here and face your feelings you adorable cinnamon roll!
Waiting for this one to be posted publicly is torture. I NEED to scream at all my friends about this 😭😭😭
Aaaarrrgggg!!! The cute! It burns!
I do not think Clinton is gay
I think Clinton might be bi.
I love this. Also, I have Clinton’s shirt.
I think I have Elliott's shirt, albeit in my size rather than his. Should we go have lunch?
ELLIOTT
AHHH MY GAY HEART CANT TAKE THIS
OMFG panel 5 is absolutely perfect!! Also, thanks Jeph for not dragging this out too much. <3
Seriously. While it would have been nice to check in on Steve and the cereal he's eating, I totally kinda half expected this point in the plot to be dropped on a Friday.
Aww Elliot I feel this struggle for real.
the ship is real... THE SHIP IS REAL *heavy breathing* *soooo happy*!
Well, this is the hardest I've laughed at a webcomic in a long time.
I can't believe we're finally doing this
I WANT TO SEE ELLIOT PICK UP CLIN-TON AND THROW HIM IN THE AIR (gently) AND THEY LAUGH TOGETHER HAPPILY
Also, this entire plot thread brings me so much joy -- it's so rare to see queer male plots at all, and that coupled with my confidence that Jeph will handle it well is just the most special thing. I feel very seen.
Hahahahahahaha. This is brilliant.
Am I the only one that can hear the "tick tick tick *PING*" between panels 4 and 5? *Edit* No, I am not.
Is there an expression for this in English? In Hebrew I'd say "the token dropped."
Too late, Elliot. Cat, bag, out of. But now at least this will move forward, whatever direction it takes.
Love the progression of Elliot’s blush!
Northampton must have the highest concentration of Adorable Dorks in the world.
They need to be careful or the stammering awkwardness will reach critical mass and cause the entire area to collapse into a black hole
Oh, god, I'm laughing my fool head off.
Your tag line (or whatever it's called) is fucking great!! XD XD
HE GOT IT. HE GOT IT. OMFG HE PUT TWO AND TWO TOGETHER!!!!!
It's happening! 😻😻😻
Gonna be awesome to see tomorrow’s comic! Really looking forward!
Quick switch to Marten & Steve hanging out???? Nah, I'm sure Jeph won't be THAT cruel.
AUGH ELIOTT YOU BIG BEAUTIFUL DUMB DUMB
In panel 5, I can almost hear the "tick tick tick tick tick *ding!*"
Best. Panel. Ever.
Let's get these two together and let Milla have Brun and yes!
Don’t abandon the Poly-ship yet!
Hello I am back and can confirm that yes I have died from screaming
BOY YOU TURN AROUND AND FINISH THAT BURRITO BY WHICH I MEAN PROPERLY CONFESS YO FEELINGS
Technically, asking him to lunch <i>is</i> asking him "out". It's just not asking him out <i>on a date</i>.
I hope this poly-couple/3 works out :)
jeph i cant believe you're gonna leave us in SUSPENSE on this ALL WEEKEND, AAAAAAAAA
This comment made me doubt it was Tuesday... Thank you for that. :-)
Clinton asking how do you halfway ask someone out, seconds later realizing he’s done the exact same thing lol
I think his realization was that he is the dude in question.
Why is this every date I've ever had with a girl???
panel 2 typo; "of couse" should be "of course" :)
Those two are such idiots. lol
Haha well he roundabout asked him in the end
ELLIOT NO
ohmygosh this is the cutest Jeph if you break my heart I may never recover.
Awww 😍
YESSSSSS. Finally.
COVER BLOWN ABORT MISSION
Clinton you DUNCE I adore you
The Flight From La Veracruzana...
So who gets the sympathy milkshake this time?
Why not both? I could go for one myself as well!
Awww Elliot. Cute teddy bear. You were at least mostly brave.
ronpaulitshappening.gif
ha!
FINALLY THE SECRET IS OUT
YOU ARE SO CLOSE
YES! We're over the hill now. Time to enjoy the rest of the ride...:)
To be honest tho, that was pretty brave!
I FREAKING LOVE THIS
This better end in a whole load of gay smooches otherwise I swear-
I expect Clinton will need to take some time to think about it ... but I could be entirely wrong.
DO NOT LEAVE YOU WILL NEVER GET YOUR ANSWER IF YOU RUN
Light juuust went on in Clinton's head, didn't it?
He did have to look up a wikiHow to go on a date with Emily, after all!
Oh wow! Talk about biting the bullet and going for it. I’m impressed!
OH NO! OH NO! OH NO!
Whooo! Here we go!
Gay it’s so adorable
No I won’t correct that typo
😂😂😂 OK, that's not quite how I expected that to go.
That. Is how a Clinton-Brun-Elliot reactor explodes.
Does that make Renee a moderator?
BABY
