See, Amanda? This is why I skip straight to the point rather than taking months to get there.
MrNumbers:
This is absolutely the start of an arc that gets Faye to ask Bubbles out isn't it? Like it just is.
I'm a compromised writer here. I officially can't tell between whether this is effective telegraphing -- the explicit lack of interest in male partners being emphasized, the sister being brought back explicitly to show new relationships as a theme for Faye to echo -- or just my shipping goggles on overdrive trying to justify what I hope it is. This sucks.

I suspect it's probably a setup to resolve the issue between Bubbles and Faye, but I can see it going in a direction I haven't seen anybody talking about. What if they figure out that they don't really want to try a relationship? There are lots of reasons that it might not be a good idea. Risking a friendship, risking their business, the social issues of the AI/Human relationship, and simple differences in life experiences, for example.

Royal we, or if you prefer: "me and my libido".
OldGoat:
They're gonna get along just fine as sisters-in-law. But poor Mandy - both her sister and her girlfriend tag-teaming her to wind her up.
