--- Quote from: Is it cold in here? on 08 Nov 2015, 19:21 ---I understand why anime-themed robot bodies are equipped for it, but why would a combat chassis be set up with the ability to blush?

She's an AI, and her emotions will be there whether the designers wanted them there or not.

Presumably, the advantages of implementing hardware supporting their visibility outweigh the disadvantages.


--- Quote from: electromgneticDstroyosaur on 08 Nov 2015, 19:57 ---Losing control of one's emotions can also result in violent outbursts, which are decidedly bad for team building.

--- End quote ---

That sounds like a good enough reason to build hardware that allows those emotions to be visible. It would be dangerous for them not to be.
Having said that, I think that electromgneticDstroyosaur meant to refer to "losing control of the ability to hide the emotions" rather than losing control over the emotions themselves, going from the context.

Kugai:
Nice to see them being totally adult about it.  I was a bit worried how it would go between these two after things went pear shaped at the party, but I think there's going to be a few more half crumbled walls between Faye and Bubbles before we get to her backstory


And her hair does look cute like that.

--- Quote from: chaospersonified on 08 Nov 2015, 18:15 ---For what it's worth, I felt obligated to vote that she install herself in a Firefly-class transport. I don't think it likely, but I had to vote that way.

--- End quote ---

"She's not in the ship, she is the gorram ship!"

BenRG:
Well, as others said, it's good to see that Jeph actually believes that his characters can act like sensible adults! I agree that it's sort of cute how Bubbles was so nervous about the conversation that she had to crumple a metal bar like that to handle her tension.

The hair and blush are nice little touches. Regarding the hair, maybe she's made a conscious decision to try to look less... intimidating as a sort of way of meeting the world half-way. As for the blush...? Well, it's obvious that her personality algorithm is human enough that she reacts to compliments. Besides... she wouldn't be the first person who, upon starting to peek out of their social shell, gets a crush on the first person to show them any kind of friendship. Whether there is anything else to it we'll just have to see.

osaka:
Meanwhile, at some convenience store...

MAY: "NOW KISS"
