Storel:
Of course Faye keeps a prybar under her bed. A proper Southern belle always keeps one handy to discourage unwanted suitors. It's a hold-over from the days when the best thing she could think of to say about Marten was "he probably won't molest you in your sleep" -- that it, she didn't think he would, but she still wasn't certain.

Of course, by the time she felt certain Marty was safe, she was equally certain that Pintsize wasn't, so the prybar still remains handy...

Is it cold in here?:
She no longer needs a prybar for fighting intruders. Bubbles would come to her defense and it would be over in a blink.

"Sudden" is a word that makes sense. The Pugnacious Peach could logically have expected that Bubbles would take a long time, lots of thought, and maybe multiple false starts before doing anything this drastic.

Faye also knows what it means to step out of armor. Hers was emotional and not metal-ceramic but it took her years to be able to take it off. She knows that what follows will be intense. There's more than one kind of intensity in life.

If Bubbles doesn't wear anything under the armor this could be awkward.

Even if Faye discovers an orientation toward women and toward robots I hope she and Bubbles never take their relationship in that direction.

Gyrre:

--- Quote from: Is it cold in here? on 02 May 2017, 22:02 ---Despite getting many opportunities from Dora, Faye has never shown sexual interest in women. Bubbles has not demonstrated sexual attraction to anyone. Until and unless we get evidence otherwise, pairing Faye and Bubbles is the bad kind of shipping.

--- End quote ---

My apologies if I sound like a troll (as it isn't my intention), but I don't believe I've ever really come across a list of guidelines for good and bad shipping. Would you happen to have a list handy?

The only guideline I know for 'bad shipping' is "never ship real people." I always assumed there was a caveat for people who were already an 'official' couple.

pwhodges:
My guideline is "reasonable for the characters and situations as described by Jeph".  While we may express an interest in where Jeph might be taking it, we should also take care not to get too far ahead of him.

It's discussed at some length in this sticky thread.

blt:
Oh man I forgot about the cardigan.  Maybe she'll put it on outside of her armour.  :-) I assume if it fits in the hypercube it'll shrink to fit...
