Is it cold in here?:
So, what do people think has Faye so disconcerted?

Human/AI romances seem to be uncommon, since this is the first we've seen. Faye may be shocked at herself.

Faye has been terrible toward synthetics. Look how she treated Momo. Is it possible that she's not fully acknowledged them as equals? Was Bubbles a "Some of my best friends are" to Faye?

Or is she simply terrified of having Feelings for someone she knows is as loyal and decent as Marten is? Someone who, unlike Sven or Angus, has LTR written all over her?

She's been a model of acceptance and support to same-sex couples all along. Even someone like that could be startled and even afraid to discover same-sex longings in herself. She's done a great job overcoming her upbringing -- that doesn't necessarily mean a 100% complete job.

Or is it something that hasn't even crossed my mind?

Bad Superman:
Faye's about to phase out of our timeline, Flash-style.

I wonder how Bubbles deals with this stressful/awkward situation...

Just so long as we don't end up with a Flashpoint scenario... Pintsize must not gain thumbs without also giving up his little pranks.

BenRG:
Well, I've got the feeling that we're on the verge of the next incarnation of The Talk because I really don't think that Faye is currently able to string sufficient coherent thoughts together in order to work out what she thinks, let alone what to do next! In any case, I really think that Marten needs to prioritise this. Based on panel 4, Faye is either about to explode or vibrate at the right frequency to phase-shift between quantum states and end up in a parallel universe!

I do like Marten's new 'business attire' clothes. Does anyone else think that Claire bought him a pack of formal shirts because "libraries are serious business"?

Bottom line is that, like all of us, Faye has pigeon-holed herself as a certain alignment. This is being challenged and, frankly, no-one feels happy or secure when their self-identity is challenged, least of all people with Faye's pretty big issues in that area.

Additionally, after the way Sven inadvertently broke her heart and the way that breaking up with Angus literally nearly killed her, I suspect that Faye is more than a little frightened of having another romantic relationship, particularly one that has managed to develop the current emotional intensity of the one she has with Bubbles whilst still remaining platonic. She's genuinely scared that she'll mess up, hurt Bubbles and, more critically, it really will kill her this time.

Gyrre:
Nice to see that Jeph still has a good knack for optical illusions indicating motion.
