I still think the love interest will lead to him having to make a choice when Brendan's evolved.
But yes, indeed.
There's no doubt in my mind Stug will come through this as stronger little friends and what not, but still! Ste! Control yourself. :eek:
Same. I can imagine it being the story that they should have told with Noah. Where the guy treats him right, but it's not enough, because he starts getting closer to Brendan again. And no one else can compare.
I know! I guess it's been eight months, but take it out on someone else, Ste! Dougehh's not that kind of friend :cool:

BIB: Exactly.
Oh poor Doug. Dreaming about Brendan and then Ste makes a move on him? Possibly?
But I think the fact that we know C&H is still there means that the incident is forgotten, and friendship resumes.
I do wonder if Brendan will get wind of it somehow. He was already fishing about why Dougie was so keen to help Ste out.
I don't mind it too much, but I think it's a weird decision to make by HO. Can't see the logic...unless, like you're speculating, it leads to Brendan finding out. Now that would be good, and would touch upon the jealousy that's already there. But it could be done with another guy.
He's not mentioned in the spoilers in relation to them, but maybe they'll surprise us, and have him spying at Carter & Hay, and will see. It'll be like Macca and Ste all over again.

I think, as someone said, it almost makes more sense with Doug cos he's the first guy since Brendan who has shown him any kind of attention and well, as Noah proved, it's not exactly unlike Ste to just crave affection where he can get it. We've said it for months that that was the only reason he dated Noah.
But wow, if they go there, and actually address this fact, I'd be impressed. Cos that's the most in-depth exploration of Ste they've done in yonks.

I have a horrible feeling it's just being done as an OMG moment, which would be pretty crass in the context of this carefully built little friendship.
But I'm not going to spend the whole weekend stressing about it:o

But still, mortifying.
I hope I'm not taking false credit, but I believe it was me It would be amazing if they did this. If it actually had a point to it and made sense. But like you say, they don't always explore Ste's character in the way they should. But it could link in with Amy wanting him to get his own relationship, maybe because he's lonely.

Same. They're so lovely together, and the whole gay thing has never even come up with them. Ste's comfortable with him, and Doug doesn't care at all that his new friend likes men. That's rare to see now days.
Me neither. We've all heard worse news. And it's not 100% confirmed.
Hmm Perhaps, Maybe afterwards Doug and Ste have a long chat and then dougs all like.. yer It's okay Ste.. your lonely and ..... Quite desperate, Lets get you exploited online, there's plenty of pervs wanting a bit of you I just don't want Online!dating!ste. Not saying theres anything wrong with It, But It's easier to meet people in person, I doubt Ste would be ignored In a club full of blokes to be honest.

Damn it. Doug's ambiguous sexuality has come back to bite us on the arse. And you, earlier, making fun of his camp spying techniques.

BIB:
The fact they pretend that Ste would have he slightest bit of trouble finding someone amuses the hell out of me. As if.
I know this will probably never happen, but imagine if Stug get a lot of support and fans because of this? Then ES thinks, hang on, they're meant to be. We're screwed
Ah, I see. I don't think anyone will. They'll probably be like us, annoyed and not seeing the point, but will think that we've had way worse. I hope so, anyway. I don't want people getting upset either
At least we don't have to wait ages. It'll all be revealed by next week.

Ha, I doubt it.
Especially since this is blatantly going to end with Doug categorically stating he's straight. Plus it'd ruin the best friendship they have.
ETA: Yeah, Readehh, I just see some people being upset that they're going there.
And I too, think it's pointless, but I do think they're going to come out of this as better ickle mates.
I hope it does! I don't want him changing just because he often has more chemistry with men. It would be too unrealistic.
BIB - exactly. I want platonic Stuggles.
ETA - same, LMan. Maybe they'll realise how much they mean to each other (just not in that way :rolleyes:)
I'm 100% sure they won't.
Aww, platonic Stuggles indeed.
I hope so. And that Doug comforts him afterwards and tells him it's alright. Then makes a joke about being irresistible or something to break the tension.

Yes to irresistible Ste! I can see this working, as long as, like you say, it makes their friendship closer. And leads to jealous!Brendan.
Comments
Maybe it'll lead somewhere good? Can't see how, though
Oh no. The feeding has taken on a whole new meaning. He rejected Brendan's grape, then tried to get Dougie to engage in some food!porn.
I still think the love interest will lead to him having to make a choice when Brendan's evolved.
But yes, indeed.

BIB: Yeah, this. I'm not too worried. But still, cringe.
Oh bugger. That exchange is a bit... ooo errr now.
I'm not sure how he'd ever find out, mind.
BIB: Exactly.
Oh poor Doug. Dreaming about Brendan and then Ste makes a move on him? Possibly?
This Yankee Doodle Doug is runing meh OTP. :mad:

For a straight guy, he sure does have a lot of guy on guy action.
That Doodle and his home wrecking ways.

I KNOW. :eek:
Keep your paws to yourself, Doug. :eek:
And your thoughts. And mouth.

This. Please, boys.
I KNOW.
Gits.
Your lips woz made for each other.
It'll be the aftermath that'll be telling. How Doug reacts to it, and how it, possibly, makes their friendship stronger?
I hope people don't get too upset/angrehh about it.
Exactly. Ste only needs Brendan's paws, him.
BIB - He better not open it...
Same. They're so lovely together, and the whole gay thing has never even come up with them. Ste's comfortable with him, and Doug doesn't care at all that his new friend likes men. That's rare to see now days.
Me neither. We've all heard worse news. And it's not 100% confirmed.
HA, Kojan!
It's funny, because we were just talking about aftermaths. This will be the test.
I think they'll probably say that of all the men to make a move on Doug, it has to be Ste :rolleyes: Nothing new there.
Damn it. Doug's ambiguous sexuality has come back to bite us on the arse. And you, earlier, making fun of his camp spying techniques.
BIB:
The fact they pretend that Ste would have he slightest bit of trouble finding someone amuses the hell out of me. As if.
Oh nevermind them, love, I mean us in here.
I hope people don't take it too badly.
It's our fault. We caused this.
Definitely. I need jealous!Brendan.
Ah, I see. I don't think anyone will. They'll probably be like us, annoyed and not seeing the point, but will think that we've had way worse. I hope so, anyway. I don't want people getting upset either
