NyxDarkness:
My heart is breaking right now...

I'm not saying that actions shouldn't have consequences, but for the most part, Faye is totally alone now. As of late, she has distanced herself from Marten and co. and Bubbles has been her closest friend. Faye is used to consequences to her actions, but she was certain that she could count on her friend to have her back here. I am sure that Bubbles would have scolded Faye for her actions had she followed anyways, but Faye would still have had her friend.

This does not bode well for Faye, but I'm interested to learn Bubbles' motivation, and if this will cause Faye to buckle in her fight for sobriety, or if her old friends will come to the rescue.

TinPenguin:
Whatever hold CW has over Bubbles is powerful indeed. This confrontation came too soon for Faye to have known how to break it. If emotions are a battlefield, Faye should have taken the tactical loss to play for strategic time. But emotions are more of a brawl, and Faye went for the literal and metaphorical right hook.

Zebediah:
I don't think Bubbles and CW are through discussing this yet. CW is likely to gloat over her "victory" a little too much for Bubbles. I'm predicting CW has a matching dent in her cranium soon, and Bubbles shows up at Faye's door the Friday before Christmas.

How true... I'm sorry for Faye. Her actions were not wise, and she's a flawed character, but taking pleasure in someone else's misery is no virtue either.

--- Quote from: USS Martenclaire on 06 Dec 2016, 01:29 ---I have trouble understanding why people are so happy about seeing Faye like this. She is in the sort of place I wouldn't wish on my worst enemy - isolated, insecurity on every front and *alone*. Even in the company of others, even friends, it's possible to feel alone and I think Faye's been alone for so long that she doesn't really understand how people work. Similar to Bubbles in that way.

--- End quote ---

Completely agree. I think any selfishness that people are perceiving is a likely byproduct of what I think primarily is actually desperation.
This I imagine will feed into her abandonment issues - I think a big part of the reason she reacted like she did was because she was beginning to feel safe in Bubbles' friendship and that it could be relied upon.
I'm very sad to see this for Faye's sake.
