Just how complex is Bubbles' chassis?
cybersmurf:
Being a military prototype, the government might not have wanted certain secrets to be accessible to enemies. My theory is that either Bubbles AI is hardwired to her chassis, or extracting/separating the AI from the chassis destroys certain or all memories.
She did get disabled, and her squad killed, but apparently only immobilized than knocked out completely. Disabling hee consciousness might be harder thab you think, probably for self destruct purposes.

She and Bobby do have a lot in common.

Oh, yes. Bobby is human though, but the whole Ganymede incident is practically the same origin thing. I wouldn't be surprised if Jeph had drawn some inspiration from that.
Is it cold in here?:

On the other hand Corpse Witch talked about Bubbles potentially losing her body. It was the conversation where Bubbles replied "I am certain that was not intended as a threat".
Will Bubbles still want to keep her current chassis now? With a civilian model she could get repairs without mil-spec parts and probably have a lower electric bill. She might consider the military chassis to be a burden to be set aside as she did with her armor.
On the other hand, it's good to have one person in a partnership who can reach the top shelf, and open jars. Faye would be certain to say "I love you just the way you are" and would mean it.
Carl-E:
I'm quite sure that had Bubbles not been the physical specimen she is, Faye would not have considered bringing her out of her shell such a challenge.
All this may not have happened.
cybersmurf:
I think deep down, Bubbles had always accepted her to be the person the chassis was made for. Partially because of her history, partially as a memory to her comrades. And as she told Faye, she's always been different, she's embracing that.
Also, she kept the armor on not as physical protection, but emotional protection, so I guess she'd have felt way too vulnerable before to change into a civilian chassis. And now she is accepted the way she is, so she has no reason to change, rather keep it for being who she is.
