Elliot was first seen as an alternate universe gag Marten

Rozzie Kopczynski

Marten is also Himbo Marten, Eliot just has the buffness going for him too 😂

John Ridley

And the highlighting in the first panel is: in...ass...

Absentia

Elliot is Himbo Marten

Solomon Garland

Old news at this point but Marten and Eliot seem to have similar tastes? First they both liked Padma and now the Augustus siblings, who look pretty similar. Idk what my point is but this stuff cute as hell

Raphael

I laughed a lot at the last panel. XD

Captain Button

The Health Inspector will not approve.

Captain Button

In my day it was "etchings."

Nicolas Dao-Phan

Depending on how the hand is designed, you might just need a FIRMware update.

Ben Russell-Gough

That doesn't stop his room from being a 'safe space' where he feels able to do things that he feels unable to do anywhere else (certainly not in his dorm room).

Lenore J Jones

I agree. They may kiss, though.

Jim Lee

Not sure if this topic’s been raised, but does Clinton’s hand have a vibrate function?

Laurie Voss

I'd just like to say EEEEEeeeeeEEEEEEEeeee. Thank you.

Kattandra

hahaha she might as well have shouted ''go fuck boys'' XD Aurelia is best mom <3

Ronald Lugge

I don't think Clinton actually lives with his Mom anymore, which would make that extremely unlikely in my mind. Actually, the fact that it's his parents house makes that extremely unlikely in my mind period -- people tend not to flaunt their sexuality at home. Leftover teenage hangups.

Ben Russell-Gough

So, Aurelia has just worked out that Clinton and Elliot have gone upstairs to have sex. It will be interesting to see how her cool handles that!

OldGoat

If Elliott comes down stairs kind of wide eyed and mumbling something about "that's like a damned baguette!" we'll know something happened.

OMG IT IS!!! HOW DID I NEVER NOTICE O_O

Comics Ladybird

“What’s up, Aurelia? You never come for poker night” “That’s odd, because this isn’t the first time in my expistence that I have chosen to exercise basic decorum”

Daniel Rydberg

My thoughts immediately went to Faye’s internal tetris for some reason 😂

Ace

And remember, subtext is just an anagram for buttsex!

Stephen Wells

Scandalous!

David Durant

Well, you win the internet today :-D

Sarah Manx

Aurelia is the most adorable mom.

Stephen Wells

Downstairs, Aurelia gets it. Upstairs, Clinton also gets it.

Dean Reilly

In tomorrow's strip, Clinton is showing Elliot his Magic: the Gathering cards.

Absentia

Yeesh. Poor girl, you gotta feel bad for her.

Nulgar

We're definitely getting a Steve strip tomorrow.

capnsoapy

Somewhere, Steve just poured a bowl of cereal

Justin

I thought this a silly comment... Until I realized, it's true! We must spread the word.

Evgeniy Semyonov

If awkwardness could be converted to electricity, Augustus family could've easily moved humanity up a notch on a Kardashev scale.

Adam Koslin

disastrophe!

Dave

subtext is just buttsex with the letters mixed up

Ami

Jeph quit trolling us

SilverbackRon

That is an aspect of Claire that we haven't seen in quite a while!

Thomas Halpin

So how will Aurelia react? Will she over-correct? Will she go hide? Will she combine them somehow? Will Clinton just get a text that she "had to leave because the groceries she ordered for tomorrow are currently on fire, and it'll be all night so they should let themselves out because she won't be back tonight?"

Nascha Morrison

I adore the walking disastertastrophe that is Aurelia 😂

Brian

Oh my. The blushing is so cute!

Bruce Steinberg

I, for one, am looking forward to Clinton harnessing his AI message board aggression to dom our soft boy!

Solomon Garland

Inviting him up to his room, eh? :3

Onyx

Love it LMAO

I love Aurelia, she's absolute chaos

And the lightbulb turns on, Aurelia

I feel like a lot of things I've read seem to focus on lesbian couples instead of gay men, maybe that's why?

MikeT

Bagge

I see in the first panel where Claire gets it from

KCkittysnores

And we’d LIKE it. We’d be all, MOMO! MARIGOLD! We missed you so much!

Andrew

Next thought: “Oh no I turned Clinton’s room into a BDSM room”

Sean Kinlin

"Well, Eliot, that stuff's gone, but here's something I've had since I was a kid" [unzips pants]

Krista Elliott

I know, right? Think of the uptight douchewad who freaked out Hanners. Our boy has evolved. (We can probably thank Brun for some of that emotional growth.)

Kenneth

Now we get a 30 comic mini-arc featuring Marigold, Dale, and Momo discussing anime. In QC, a watched ship never sails...

Krista Elliott

Claire is many things. Subtle is not one of them.

Tamara Macadam

SO CLOSE

Pejo

Is it just me or is some of the coloring a bit different since switching to the new workflow? Clinton's red cheeks in this one & the previous one, the delivery bag before that... The gradient has speckles in it.

Aussiewan

When Elliott gets around to teaching Clinton how to bake, I'll be very disappointed if it's not along the lines of the pottery scene in Ghost.

Mad Marie

Aurelia has gotten rid of all that stuff and the room has been turned into a well-stocked pastry kitchen.

Alcaria Swain

Wait, are they gonna kiss up there? Is that what's happening?

Lucas Werkmeister

but what if Aurelia got rid of Clinton's stuff whatever will they do then

Syko2K

Hey Jeph, I just want to say congrats on hitting 12,000 patrons! I've been following the comic for about 10 years and I'm really happy that there's other people who are just as proud of you as I am. Keep up the good work, you goddamned beautiful bastard!

Sero

I am definitely in the "NOW KISS" boat. But I'm also just really interested to see which direction things go from here even if no smooching happens (yet). I've been very curious if Clinton will need to take things slowly since he's never been interested in a guy before and this is new to him. (We don't even know if he's had much experience with girls either, lol.) It's been somehow refreshing to see this unfold and I can't even put my finger on why..? Edit: gonna lmao if after musing all that, things escalated as fast as Faye and Bubbles.

GodsInTheCogs

*pulls out wallet*

Brooks Moses

I'm not entirely sure she is. I think she might just have been unaware of the subtexts that that context adds to the conversation!

Brooks Moses

One of the things I love about this strip is that I can read it with the headcanon that Aurelia's "he's such a nice boy" comment and smile is a clear indication that she's aware of the feelings between Clinton and Eliot (especially given that she said exactly the same thing about Marten when Claire brought him home), and that the only thing that she was unaware of was just that the conversation about baking had subtext. And I really love that characterization.

Erin Moriarty

Love you dude

Vilinda

They gunna do the do?

Jaron Mortimer

WHAT DID I SAY LAST TIME

Remy!

I love that he’s gotten twinkier over the years 😂

Captain Button

Picking up subtext on sonar, Captain...

Diptych

That someone's a nice boy? She has! https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=2809

Yelling Bird

SUBTEXT LEADS TO BUTTSEX!

Spoogle McGee

Right, so I had to re-read a bunch of earlier strips because it's not clear that Aurelia is completely unaware that Clinton and Eliot are into each other. Hope that helps out anyone else who was a bit lost as to this and the previous strip.

Fart Captor

She's so adorable, omg

Bach, outta pocket

What's the paetron tier for them to make out in Clinton's room?

Miyaa

I think the only thing left is if Claire squees after Aurelia tells her about this.

I'm reading it as Clinton's response vis a vis how he'd be interested in exploring baking (courtesy of last page) clicked; relationship subtext, not friendship subtext. The In Ass would be tooooooooo on point IMHO, but then again 🤷

Sero

Maybe you're thinking of Marten's mom?

Miyaa

Finally. I was afraid that maybe Claire would have to more than gently tap her mom with a clue by four.

Lana Del Prey

From your wallet to god's ears

Grace Kieser

I wouldn't mind if they left it cracked enough for the next comic...

Tom wilson

Subtle. Real subtle. 😉

Michael

10$ says they kiss up there.

fusorx

My memory might just be failing me again today, but didn't she used to have some gray in her hair? Honestly don't know if my brain just fabricated that wholesale or what
