Hmmm.... Maybe try "Bah-weep-Graaaaagnah wheep ni ni bong." if that doesn't work.
EDIT: The above "universal greeting" is from Transformers: The Movie, for those wondering. It's also in the giant isopod(?) level of War for Cybertron.
Is it cold in here?:

With Faye being a Kinsey 0 and Bubbles a Kinsey X this is at best premature.
To me it also seems to devalue the idea of close non-sexual friendship, which we know they have and which is deepening.
Kugai:
Time shall tell.
I love Bubbles blushing though.

That has been a growing pet peeve of mine across several areas of social media over the last couple of years. People and fandoms have forgotten that not every character interaction is or needs to be romantic in nature. At times friendships can have be deeper than romantic relationships, especially when the individuals involved become better for that relationship.
Its somewhat disheartening to see that people are defaulting to the general idea of "Two people?! They gonna bone!", while the idea of friendship rots by the wayside.
Kugai:
The thing is, there has been speculation on Human/AI relationships in the Forum on and off for years. I don't remember offhand, but I think that this is something Jeph himself has weighed in on on a couple of occasions (can't remember whether he was for, against or indifferent about it - others with better memories than I can probably give you a better answer on that.)
Whether or not Jeph goes in that direction is entirely up to Jeph. It would be interesting to see what happens IF he does decide to go that route. I would speculate it might create the kind of Forum explosion (good and bad) that Claires introduction and eventual hookup with Marten did, but as I say, the ultimate decision on that is in Jephs hands.
