Is it cold in here?:

What is Faye going to go to the cops with? As Officer Rosko said, even the small time gambling is barely even a crime. The officer would seem to have a major bee in her bonnet about the place, which is why she hurtled in when she thought there might actually be evidence of something bad going on but apart from that... By the looks of things, under UK law at least, far more trouble could be caused by whistle blowing to the taxman.

Corpse Witch did threaten her. At first that looks like CW has something to be concerned about. On second thought it would be in character for CW to push someone around just to prove that she can.

Reporters are taught to look for unhappy people to cultivate as sources. It would make sense for Clouseau to approach Faye again. Faye may know more than she thinks she does. Clouseau could show Faye pictures of possible higher-ups and ask "Did this person ever visit the skate park?". Another good one would be "Did you ever see a spare part in inventory with the serial number filed off?".

hedgie:
That last line was kinda scary.  We have no idea what their supply chain is.  I wonder if Bubbles won't leave until she has a "Soylent Green" moment due to a source of parts.

Kugai:
GODDAMNIT JEPH!!!!

chris73:
Some people, including me, see faye as both a bully and a thug. Threats and violence are often her go to moves in any situation. Even Jeph has said he would not want her in his life. So yes, it is good and appropriate that her actions have negative consequences.

Yes this, her behaviour towards Marten in particular is nothing short of abusive and manipulative so its good that she (hopefully) starts to learn that violence doesn't always solve everything

danuis:
I would think that in a universe full of robotic chassis and AIs, including combat AIs which fight in wars, and working at a AI fight club, that picking a fight with these beings as a fleshy human would be a good way to get an arm ripped off and thus would be near instictively repressed by most people.

What the hell, Faye, you're too rash, literally for your own safety in addition to your own livelihood.

Sure, the comic doesn't go that way, but if CW had punched back, Faye could had been seriously hurt, or if Bubbles intervened even if to break it up in the nanosecounds it takes to make a decision, she could had flung Faye across the room.

And Faye isn't off the book from that either - CW's threat still hangs. Though that'll be a...weird course for the comic to take, the impact of losing two jobs to her impulsiveness is already tearing at her, so no need for that - I hope.
