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.

I becomes incredibly blatant when they become roommates
Clinton basically says "You two are banging? Niiiiice"
Even the cast was already thinking it
Undrneath:
As counterpoint to those saying it's too fast I know that I have had several relationships go from friends to horny bunnies in a single interaction. The underlying emotion comes to a head and it kinda feels like an explosion.

--- 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.
--- End quote ---
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
--- End quote ---
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
--- End quote ---
The older and more mature Jeph gets the more the characters will evolve. He as with all artists draws from his own life.

Why does Bubbles need Faye?

I went looking through the archives for this one: Especially the bottom left panel.

But there's another couple pretty good reasons in the strips leading up to it.

And on the way I found another couple of bottom left panels...
http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=3316
http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=3317
And there's this one.

And probably a bunch more.
I think they're pretty good reasons.
