--- Quote from: HiFranc on 19 Oct 2016, 03:35 ---{edit} I feel for Bubbles. She's obviously got some PTSD and he just triggered it because he wanted to justify himself.

Actually, I think it's Bubbles sense of humour showing. I doubt she would mention "washing off the entrails" in such a nonchalant manner if it had triggered something; she just likes to troll Pintsize. And, it works!

50/50. Bubbles may be doing that thing where you're damaged, but working on it, so you use your trauma in your humor to troll people.
That last panel was reminiscent of letters commanding officers write families about soldiers who die in battle. An experience Bubbles has close to heart. Did we ever learn her rank? Getting a nickname like "bubbles" suggests to me she was a non-com or specialist rather than an officer or grunt.

Agreed, but if she had the chance to ride a blue whale would she do it?

US gallon, or Imperial?

Perhaps I mistyped and meant "galleon."

No, can't be. In popular culture tea was traditionally delivered by Clipper ships, not galleons...
Tea Clipper
Galleon
Kugai:
Bubbles is somewhat overcontrolled
Pintsize has absolutely no Impulse Control
Seems to balance out in the end.
