OK, I think I've waited long enough to post this so nobody will notice it: If things go horribly wrong, someone may need "Close Heir Support"! Yes, this is what happens when I go too long with nothing to ship.
You were so close! "Close Hair Support." It's Claire to me.
Actually, close air support when dealing with relationships is probably a good thing!
The changes in Bubbles' blush level in this strip give me life.
There's a real head of steam building up. I predict an week of Steve eating cereal...
I predict a year of Faye trying to help Bubbles find love whilst continually angsting about her mixed feelings and jealousy.
"If your love life requires close air support, something has gone very wrong" is surely a quote for the ages XD
Oh, the angst - which is, of course, why we're all here :-). Personally I'm not one of the shippers here. I think Faye loves Bubs as a close friend but I think she's straight and the idea of a relationship not only hasn't occurred to her but isn't something she'd be interested in. That said - Winslow and Momo have both shown that AIs can change bodies so there's an interesting potential plot direction there if Bubbles considered it. Plus it would be an interesting comparison to Claire's story arc.
That's a really interesting direction that I hadn't even thought of. Wow. Exploration of gender and what it means to AIs. This is going to be bouncing around my head all day now.
Knowing Jeph, now is the time to go see what's happening in someone's else life. No smooshings in sight.
At some point, Faye has GOT to work out why Bubbles reacts so strongly to casual physical contact!
Hurry up and be tomorrow so i can share this, that last line alone will ring true too much with all the people i know
Not everything and everyone have to be in a non-binary relationship. It's starting to feel a bit too forced and agenda driven.
Nonsene, there are merely a lot of permutations in achieving the final goal of "everyone fucks"
"Do you ever feel lonely... like romantically? (...) I'm your girl" Things are shaping up well
"Sadie... do you ever get lonely, even when you're around people?"
JUST KISS ALREADY
Bubbles may not be ready for a relationship yet; she has some growing to do on dealing with emotions - both hers and others - before she will be able to have a healthy relationship
Is she never going to ask out that barman guy then? 🤡😈
She really has no idea hahahaha.....this is going to end tragically.
Arrrrrrgggggghhhhhhhhhhh. Yeah, that about covers it. Faye is oblivious.
I love Bubbles in this strip. 10/10 would let her take quotes out of context again.
oh man, Faye's hand on Bubbles' arm and then her arm around her waist made my ovaries explode a little
Faye is soooooo touchy feelyyy with Bubs
*goes up in flames*
WHEN ARE YOU GONNA MAKE THE LESBIANS SMOOCH
This slow burn has almost finished burning down my house.
My cat just ran past me on fire. My apartment is obviously catching as well at this point
Exactly what I thought was going on. <3 Bubbles doesn't want to ruin a good thing. I feel for her.
Sixed mignals?
The carrot continues to be dangled in front of us
Hnnngh too cute. Damn it Jeph. The obvious isn't going to happen, is it? That would be too straightforward, too predictable. But it want it so bad. AGH.
Think of Marten and Claire. That went on for, what, *400* pages before they actually finally got together
Bubbles' last line is a pretty good philosophy to be honest!
*slams head into wall* Why *thud* won't *thud* these two *thud* get a fucking CLUE?! *thud* Aaaaaagh! *collapses on floor*
It would violate all trope laws if they recognized it.
Oh Faye.
I think my brain just exploded.
