Comic Discussion > QUESTIONABLE CONTENT
(CW/TW: Abuse) WCDT strips 3731-3735 (30th April to 4th May 2018)
Is it cold in here?:
If Faye were a teenager I might think this was a way of getting an interested person to touch her.
Grown-up Faye would just come right out and ask.
Her subconscious has got to have figured out by now that Bubbles is Interested. Maybe it's directing her away from the ice pack and away from self-massage deliberately.
BenRG:
Remember, Faye told herself that Bubbles can't possibly be falling for her so she isn't going to admit to herself that this may have any content other than her friend massaging away a knot in her muscles. Meanwhile, I've got the feeling that Bubbles doesn't know at this point whether she's conscious or whether this is one of her most fevered fantasies coming true!
Why is Bubbles reluctant (other than her stated reasons)? I suspect that this is a bit too intimate a physical contact for her peace of mind. I suspect that she doesn't know if she'd be able to observe boundaries and is afraid that Faye will reject her when she goes too far, something that would probably be the most painful experience she can imagine.
The shipper in me makes me wonder if Bubbles will do something silly like 'try to kiss it better' after finishing the massage. Given the location, this could lead to... complications.

--- Quote from: Bad Superman on 29 Apr 2018, 22:22 ---I voted for Marten/Claire, mostly because I still regard Marten as part of the "main cast" (I even used to think of him as the main character, but that belief is long gone), and he hasn't got much spotlight for quite some time now. I realize that his and Claire's story might not be very high on everyone's priority list right now, but still…
Considering today's comic we might get more Faye/Bubbles this week, and I'm perfectly fine with that because Bubbles behavior towards Faye just has such an innocent quality to it… It's adorable.

There's only two things Jeph can really do with the couple: split them up or marry them off. They are already sexual and live together, the next step forward is marriage. Conversely, the next step back is breaking up over something one of them may do but given the personalities, neither will break it off.
So they are stagnant, especially Marten. At least Claire has a chance to develop in other ways but Jeph isn't going down that road yet....perhaps a backstory arc?

Mature behavior just isn't very entertaining. If it was, Jerry Springer would have no television career.

Gyrre:
Faye is definitely putting blinders on.
