FWIW, I'd like for a human/AI love story (even if told as a lesson from history) where the human fell in love with a totally disembodied AI simply because he or she was kind, empathetic and shared a lot of the human's interests. It is only later that the AI used first a holo-avatar and then later an anthromimetic chassis and the relationship became physical (and ultimately ended with marriage and the adoption of children).
I'd also like for there to be a number of AIs to be against cross-species romance for various reasons, some political and some due to pure bigotry.

On a topic that is only superficially related to physical space, I am kind of surprised that Faye and Bubbles get on so well without friction (that we've seen - I think) given that they are pretty well living in each others pockets. They share a house, share a bedroom, and work with each other. I've known couples that end up working in the same company, and they went to some trouble to ensure they were in different projects.
Speaking personally, I do not think it would be good for my relationship for my partner if we were to work with each other. And when we're on holiday, we usually have at least one day or half day where we separate and do our own thing. Even though (or maybe because) by the end, we are really wanting to get back together and share with each other what we've experienced.
Close relationships are a wonderful thing, but people need their space.

Different couples need different amounts of space. For example, I know a couple who are probably in their fifties, and have worked together all their working life - they're currently running a cafe, and have run hotels together in the past, so lots of time at work. Seems utterly crazy to me, but works for them.

--- Quote from: BenRG ---Faye isn't oblivious, rather she is actively in denial about Bubbles's reaction to her.
--- End quote ---
I believe this.
Do you think Faye is also in denial about her own budding and unclear feelings toward Bubbles?
--- End quote ---
I think that as far as Faye is concerned, her feelings towards Bubbles are perfectly clear.
--- End quote ---
Well, in the sense that a wood is still a wood even though you can't see it for all the dang trees getting in the way, that assessment of her emotional forestscape is probably even technically accurate.
(Yes, forestscape is actually a word. And no, it doesn't appear to be a transliteration from an originally German compound-noun, we must have missed that one. Congrats, Ingleses! ... won't happen again ...)

Faye used to sleep way over on the other side of the bed away from Bubbles. http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=3523
traroth:
I'm tempted to say I'm impatient to see tomorrow's comic, but I kind of lost hope for a conclusion of any sort...
Also: Are Bubbles' hair growing?
