Week 220! (Patreon)

And third script up for page 431.

On to the second part of the date, which of course would be the dinner. Again, pretty cliche (and the third one'll be cliche, too), but while there's the fact that it turns out it's mildly difficult to come up with unique date ideas/locations, really it fits with Connor's thinking that he'd go for those kinds of places/activities for a big date night, so it's fine I think.

This scene will perhaps actually allude to something entirely different, actually, something I've been wanting to bring up and foreshadow for a long time now. I'm not sure how subtle or not-subtle I want to be about it, and it actually has nothing specifically to do with Campy and Connor's arc here at all, but it would hint at something pretty crucial for the future, if I do mention it here finally. But we'll see when I write the next page if I end up doing it or just waiting a little longer to reveal it in the way I've had in mind for a long time.

As for this page specifically, like I said, dinner's the next obvious step in a date trilogy, and it feels like we can ramp up to more personal and heartfelt attempts getting dashed, leading to the escalation and crash I want to have happen for this. This might end up being the same restaurant the two were shown being at in page 185 (also the same restaurant that Lucy was supposed to have a date with Bruce at in page 287), but that'd only really matter in terms of wallpaper really considering how brief those scenes in the past were.
