Crosstalk

I'm not sure my heart and brain are ready for what is to follow, but I trust you Jeph.

Good night, people. They had *one* sorta date and it didn't go well because Clinton was insensitive (and has no idea about it, apparently) and they haven't even talked about it yet. Let Jeph tell the story before you write this off or declare that their love is eternally doomed. Especially with Clinton, who's gotten loads of character development over the years - learning that he was insensitive and fixing it could easily be another step in his development.

I really shipped them but Clinton is such an idiot... :/

If Clinton is blacking out that badly, he’s got bigger problems than his relationship with Elliot.

at least we’re flying half a ship

If Elliot beat Clinton to death with his robot hand right now, no jury in the world would convict him.

I think Clinton has good intentions and just needs like. Elliot to actually explain that he lied and WAS actually upset. And why. I don’t think it’s Clinton’s fault that he took him at his word—he’s not the best at this when he ISN’T super drunk and talking to someone being pretty indirect. (And it causes problems if you insist people are secretly mad at you after they tell you they aren’t. IME.)

Now eat pumpernickle together!

Clinton, you doofus.

One step forward, two steps back...Jeph, are you going for a "dumbasses to lovers" story here? Because Clinton needs a dope-slap upside the head. I can't tell whether Claire or freaking Pintsize would be better at getting Clinton to understand what an assclown he's being.

I can't handle this.

clinton needs to go talk to his sister in detail.

Elliot, you deserve better.

TBF, I have recently seen a dude hit in the face with a loaf of bread...

Oh no.

Oh for shits sake Clinton you dumb bastard.

Danny.

Smdh Clinton, scientists could probably get some interesting density readings from that man

Smfh, Clinton...

jfc, Clinton.

I'd forgotten their parting conversation at the bar and it's context with this strip. Here it is: https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=4385

Now what the fuck is Elliot supposed to do?

Oh, Clinton. I have a sad. It is not on Eliot to explain either. And so damn. I hope Clinton gets a clue. :(

wow, didn't think he was this oblivious... edit: wouldn't it be funny if these two ended up working out, with their apparent-zero chemistry, but brune mille didnt? that would make me super sad tho.

Clinton, I am disappoint.

YAY! I love these two idiots! Onward to romance!!

FFS Clinton. You're an idiot but I forgive you because, deep down, we both know that it's Jeph's fault.

D’Oh!

I hear a baguette works well as a clue-by-four.

I mean it's a good thing he clarified what he was apologizing for because if he didn't the next time this came up it was going to be super awkward anyway

so close, but so, so, SO far

I almost hurt myself facepalming

Ugh,....

:( he's so stupid.

Clinton, you absolutely idiotic man.

I'm still rooting for Claire to roast him over this.

Ah, Clinton.

OOF!!!

Clinton no

Oh, Clinton. It's a good thing you're pretty.

Jesus Animorphing Christ, Clinton.

Claire has great insight about her brother. Clinton has no chill.

GDI Clinton

I was relieved for a moment and then Clinton just had to go and be Clinton. Crossing my fingers for these two, I love them.

Jeph... that was mean!

Jfc, Clinton

Clinton.
