IMO, the most logical explanation is that writer does not actually have any detailed plan for characters and the whole comic. It is like he just writes whatever he feels like each week without considering what he had wrote in the past.
It is probably why we have a lying victim-playing two-faced little shit as protagonist.
Let's see..
In the beginning, Scott actually was the one who invited Derek into his house (when no one was home) after a few brief meeting in the park.
Scott was also the one who initiated physical contact; He hugged and kissed Derek.
Later, He then called Derek for another "kiss" which led to him topping Derek.
Scott, who supposedly insecure about his homosexuality, was untroubled by the fact that his brother caught him in his bed room with an older man.
The carefree dog also boldly kissed his partner in front of his brother.
Scott, who does not want anyone to know about his faggotry, had an idea to have Derek to go to party with him. The event that many people who know Scott also attend and would ask question if they were seen together.
All of these happened in, what, a span of 3-4 days. And they all happened because Scott made the first move every time.
On the other hand,...
Scott's personality totally flips 180 degrees when he is around other people.
He exhibits victim-like behaviour and very guarded, like, he has tried to portray that anyone who approaching and talking to him are about to hurt him somehow.
When Derek asked Scott if he is gay, Scott was just surprised, not freaked out. It ended with Scott giving Derek a kiss. (WTF!?)
When Matthew asked if Scott is in a relationship with another man, Scott mentally broke-down and collapsed. (WTF!?)
Scott however had no consideration at all when he asked Matthew, a personal question, if he is gay. A question which Matthew, like a sane normal person, calmly answered it truthfully.
Scott also love to lie even when he does not need to, which is the main cause of all these dramas.
So, I don't think Scott is that shy, diffident or insecure with his gayness. He knows how to get what he want (gay sex with lion daddy). He just use insecurity as an excuse to play a victim when things do not go his way.
What I wrote above might seem like I do not like this comic. I, however, do enjoy it.
It's like watching some arseholes causing traffic accident. Everything is shitty and terrible but it's entertaining, something you'd want to watch how it unfolds. A satisfying ending for me would be polices show up to put those arseholes in jail.
Though, it is something that would not happen in this comic since accident-causing arsehole is "good guy" here. So, the "villain" deer would get the short end of the stick.
