That's always been one of my weirdest hypothetical fears, being stuck outside of the house with no pants on. If I were in heart-boxer-Jon's situation, I'd probably be standing behind those bushes by now.

Speaking of which, I'm really digging the way that c!Stephen is clutching the cover to his chest, like he doesn't want this strange-Jon to see his bare chest in such intimate settings. Though our "Stephen" has flashed the audience his nipples before, so mabe it's just covering what he can after intimacy or just an extra barrier or layer of protection? Actually, I think c!Stephen let that Jon off kind of easy, no pants but a full minute to gtfo to a certain point before he'd shoot. I consider that an improvement, especially considering that "Stephen" has shot before and the stressful situation.

(Sigh) c!Stephen has his sob after he learns that his Jon was in on this pre-meditated switch, and that's sad enough, but l!Stephen's hurt is just as glaring, despite those quiet words "Did you really think we wouldn't notice the difference? . . . Oh..." Both the Stephens' reactions are different, but the hurt is the same.

Well... at least both Jons will have a small bit of time to compose themselves before they have to fix their mess. c!Stephen's Jon was treated to a waffle breakfast, so he has some food in his stomach, before he goes home to face his glaringly broken Stephen, who won't be shy in letting him know he's done wrong. And l!Stephen's Jon may be in his boxers (... imagining how he's going to get home is pretty funny, actually,) but at least he'll have a few moments to get some pants on, while his Stephen represses his emotions, before they come out.

If this comic weren't so cute and humorous at the bottom of it all, I'd be more worried. :)

Re: c!Stephen is clutching the cover to his chest.

Maybe it's just me but I think he feels somewhat violated and he's instinctively covering himself.

Balloon drop for inspirine this time - c!Stephen feels violated, so he's using everything he can reach to protect himself.

And, yeah, l!Stephen is holding a lot in. (There's a reason his answer in the panel opposite the sob wasn't just "yes".)

Neither Jon knows for sure that the other one has been found out, so they can't just run straight home. Three-sided rendezvous in that interdimensional café, coming right up...
