I dub the blonde guy Mophead Maurice. He seems like he and Bobby Problems get together on saturday’s and do long hits from the drug pipe.
Looking at panel two this is some of the most vunerable i’ve seen claire. And yes that includes a 12 year old claire begging her boyfriend not to turn her in. It hammers home how CLOSE this was and is the kind of expression that makes me happy to re-read the issue as it comes out publicly, as you just notice these little touches. She rebounds fast, at least enough to bluff the Claire Hairem, or a Claireem as i’m now calling em, so good on her.
