I get migraines, and for many years the course of them was that I'd feel worse and worse, headache would be more and more intense, then I'd throw up and that was a signal that the worst was over and I'd soon be feeling better. So the vomiting was positively welcome!

I don't feel like it should be a verb at all - if anything, it feels more like 'being made to vomit' (or being 'wrung out', if you had a bad oyster ...).
Then and again, the same applies to 'falling' - little choice involved, either - however, it feels wrong-ish for your body to so blatantly ignore your wishes in the matter. :x
--- Quote from: Morituri on 12 Jan 2017, 20:49 ---Ah, no. I understand, but in English "-genic" means "cause of" or "starter" and "-logical" means "about" or "pertaining to."
...
Something labeled "Eschatogenic, do not touch" has an implication that fooling with it could end the world.
--- End quote ---
Ah, yes! -genic, not -logic (Haw! Haw!). Like in 'mutagenic'. No, German doesn't have a world like 'eschatogenic'. It does have (the) Weltvernichtungsmaschine (World-annihilation-machine), courtesy of Stanley Kubrik.

*sigh*
Alright, I guess I'm enlisting as a crew member of the Faye/Bubbles ship.
Method of Madness:
Ehh...I just don't see it. It's not out of line, but I remain unconvinced.
Neko_Ali:
It is possible to be very close friends with someone without there being romance involved. That said, there has been plenty of body language from Bubbles that Faye's more casually hands on moments are flustering to Bubbles, but not unwelcome. That could be an indication of attraction toward Faye. Or it could be that Bubbles is just unused to such displays and doesn't know how to deal with them. She doesn't do the 'blush and avert eyes' when Hanners hugs her though. Just for Faye. So it's entirely possible that Bubbles feels some attraction to Faye beyond friendship.
On the other hand, Faye has shown no such reactions. Or any kind of attraction to women, human or AI. Bubbles is a good friend though, and Faye is fiercely loyal to her friends. So none of what she has done For or to Bubbles has been out of character, or outside the sort of thing she's done with Marten, Dora or Hanners. None of whom does she have an attraction to. They're more family to her than anything else.
