Must be an atlas...

All the best books come with maps.
And, um, contours.

That cover looks almost old enough for membership in the Grand Army of the Republic. IIRC, the Smiff Library where Claire works has one of the world's premier collections of Victorian porn, does it not?

--- Quote from: Thrillho on 03 Nov 2017, 08:24 ---Faye showing no interest in women before doesn't mean not having any.
And not showing any in the strip doesn't mean not expressing any.
Do we even consider Bubbles, as an AI, on as binary a basis as being female?
And as a comic with a big focus on sexual minorities, I think that Faye discovering a curiosity in genders outside of cis males fits in pretty well as character development - I know I personally didn't explore other genders until relatively late in life, and I'm currently with an agender person and a genderqueer person.

I assume this goes back to the comic a while back where Pintsize wasn't disturbed by the fact that he essentially ended up docking with another male set AI but was disturbed that he didn't recognize the gender settings of the AI until after the fact...
Welu:
Oh yeah, this comic. It would be interesting if Jeph got into AI genders again. I wonder if it's more intricate now than how it was initially described.
SpanielBear:
Much as I adore the good ship Faybles, I have to ask- how much is Claire aware of Bubbles' feelings (or proto-feelings) at all? I can't remember any specific interaction where it was raised, but I may be wrong.
However, I can think of one well-built, caring non-bro single guy that Claire has encountered recently.
Guys, what if she's thinking of Elliot?
