(sorry, couldn't resist)
More seriously though, I'm genuinely both curious and invested in what happens next. I think Bubbles might consider or try to prevent Faye from buying liquor with more than just calm argumentation, and I guess that could potentially be even worse. Both my limited knowledge and limited experience of people with addictions is that if they are stopped from indulging in their addiction by an outside force, or even feel they've been forced or coerced by someone else (even if it's not true), it tends not to last.
Right now I'm kinda worried, because I don't see any possibility of this ending well in a way that wouldn't feel like an easy, unrealistic "out", plot-wise.

Hopefully Bubbles can talk Faye down. It may just be this one time. But hopefully she manages to help out.
Bubbles might even shed a bit of her armor to distract Faye (like one of her gauntlets).
Que Bubbles making an analogy between her armor and Faye's drinking.

The tbing about forcibly becoming freinds with a Starship Troopers expy is that they are completely capable of physically stopping you from doing a stupid thing. And Bubbles was in the army..stopping people from being stupid is practically a full time job.

I find people often revert to their worst selves when they know they are being self destructive, or know they are screwing up.

This is you, yes, you right now, person who I made the Red Text appear for while you were writing your comment. And you should be ashamed.

*blink* Um. Huh.
You would appear to be assuming the worst of the next poster ahead of you. How interesting.

Well there was going to be a comment there that justified it, but they saw mine pop up and ended up not posting it. You see.
It's really quite obvious what happened here.

Big Daddy Bubs don't need to talk or tase or any shit other than picking Faye up and carrying her home.

And that's the scenario that worries me. In the end, the only person that can stop Faye from drinking is Faye. Stopping her from drinking right now, while a good stopgap measure, is not enough.
