Look at that smile! Great job, Bubbles!
When it comes to giving Ernest advice people don't need a lecture keep it short and sweet.
Wait, didn't Bubbles and Sam have a somewhat similar convo when Sam tried to use a grinding wheel to trim a fingernail?
Similar in some respects certainly, pre-Grim Sam was rather more receptive to it on that occasion. https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=3804
I love Bubbles so much.
This feels optimal. Sam understands who has their back. Emmet needs this too. Only thing after that is to enable “Confusion to the Enemy” to the bullies.
I think Emmett’s mom needs this more than they do. That nervousness from Emmett is directly from their mother and Emmett’s mom needs reassurance that Emmett is on the right direction too.
Handling bullies is hard, because whatever you do, it's the wrong way. Standing up to them is probably the least bad one, but runs the risk of authorities deciding YOU are the problem, like in this case.
Oh Sam, that ain't a lecture. It's too damned short to be a lecture.
Bubbles can project a PowerPoint presentation from her bellybutton.
She has already compiled one about the buttfor. It is called: The buttfor: where to find one and it’s many applications.
Were it Bubbles instructing Emmett, the advice would be similar plus better nonlethal techniques when force is necessary. Bubbles would know a good special operations officer when she sees one.
I’m not sure that Emmett’s impulse control problems (which frankly leave Sam’s in the dust) would make for a very good operator. (Okay, there’s a certain kind of deranged cowboy who would greet Emmett as a sibling… But special ops are usually supposed to be sneaky. Not sure Emmett does sneaky.)
Claire once again: "aww dangit' someone else probably Martin: "do you know why this time?" Claire: "no... let me get some charts and graphs to try and figure this out." ~<3
… with circles and arrows and a paragraph on the back of each one explaining what it was to be used as evidence ...
I get that reference!
Kid, you’ve just been hugged by a main battle tank. Be worthy.
Based on the last two panels, Bubbles has shrunk. She used to tower over all the puny humans.
Sam is getting to be pretty tall these days though. Must be all the Reasonable Puffs. https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=4803 (Also, it's hard to tell, but I'd bet she's wearing some big ol' clompy goth boots that add an inch or five)
I am here for Bubbles and Faye as the cool queer aunties
Reminds me of my of my favorite engineer-comedian! He also uses Venn Diagrams.
Oh Sam, it's not your fault that as a teen your brain hasn't finished developing leading to issues with impulse control and thinking through the consequences of your actions. Don't worry, all that stuff will be full developed by the time you've 25 so, you know, just a decade or so to go!
25, 55, potato potahto (i'm in my 50s and ... i have some bad news, guys!)
The best jokes are *always* groan worthy. 😂 Also well done bubbles honey... You successfully frothed all the 'grim' right out of her. ❤️
Sam has the best aunts.
She also needs to acknowledge that Emmett is responsible for their own actions, and they are the one that chose to choke that guy out.
This is so gorgeous. Wish I'd had a Bubbles to talk to me that way when I was a kid.
And Bubbles probably has a built-in laser pointer in her finger.
Doubles as a target designator for precision munitions.
Nothing enhances a lecture quite like a few good visual aids. https://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=3188

Nice callback in panel 2. (only calling back a few days, of course)
Those eyes do not agree with the _uugh_ KIDS LONG FOR INFOGRAPHICS
Siily Bubbles, infographix are for kids.
Just Claire's ears? Not Zlata's too? Z will continue to be the perfect aide de camp for The Librarian.
Ah Bubbles has style. And yet remains absolutely herself. Yay Bubbles!
Yes, Bubbles assimilated Anh’s advice, but acted on it in her own way.
Bubbles being a good friend. And I bet she gives good hugs
She gives better hugs than Crushbot, who is not quite calibrated to know how many Nm^2 the hugee can take.
I'm using that line going forward.
NGL, I low-key wish she were lecturing.
a stealth approach to the objective can be more effective than a bombardment.
Love the unwilling gremlin smile.
I want the infographics
Bubbles gives TERRIFYING Ted Talks.
