Hear hear! Bubbles has been growing her hair out. I wonder how that works, but it's a visual metaphor, intentional or not, of her growing engagement with the world, and of course her relationship with Faye.
--- Quote ---So, two characters, one of them "super buff" and the other a large combat robot that can heft Humvees, who by their own admission have no idea what they're doing, are headed home to figure it out.....

I think it's best to avoid discussion of the more... physical aspects of Bubbles's and Faye's relationship, but since they're both morphologically women, they would avoid most of the difficulties discussed by Larry Niven with regard to Superman and Lois Lane. Bubbles must already be running a "world made of cardboard" mode by default.

Bubbles lifting up Faye as they kiss hungrily is probably the sexiest thing two characters in QC have ever done. Damn. I honestly was not expecting that.
Jeph was the biggest Faybles shipper of all of us!

--- Quote from: gopher on 18 May 2018, 01:50 ---Yay, happy characters. Worried they get put in the happy couple box, like nearly all successful couple in QC, and be ignored. It seems too many characters win condition is "Be in a couple". At least Angus did something different.

One of my long standing complaints was Jeph continuously putting characters in toxic/negative relationships. Actual healthy relationships seem to be a more recent development

The characters have been steadily growing up.

This is true. And not just romantic ones.
Example: Sven and Dora seem to have at least worked out a cordial relationship

Sorry....but I'm disappointed. This build up and climax just feels like jumping the shark. Shipped fan service rather than a storyline. sigh.

I just reread everything since Bubbles was introduced and Jeph seemed to be headed in this direction from the beginning, he may not have had the specifics planned but with hindsight being 20/20 it is blatantly obvious.

Can you just imagine Punchbot walking in? "Hey guys, I need a ..." *jaw drop*

Knowing Punchbot it would be more like *drops jaw*
