Jason to Clive: Do those rune tattoos help with the ladies?
Clive: No. Having a cute familiar who women want to feed helps with the ladies.
Belinda: … You shoo them all away while looking annoyed when they hit on you
Me, overanalyzing the scene:
Clive attracts people by having a cute familiar people want to feed.
Jason plays into Stashe’s biscuit obsession —> he likes feeding familiars.
Jason thinks Onslow is cute. Worries about him multiple times.
Clive shoos away all ladies interested in him when feeding Onslow.
But Clive says Onslow “helps with the ladies.”
Clive uses Onslow to attract Jason/ help him get Jason’s attention because Jason thinks Onslow is cute and wants to feed him.
Clive is really just in love with Jason.
