How will Bubbles propose?
cybersmurf:
That would be quite Bubbles. Although she wouldn't use the word 'propose' in there.
Faye probably would give her a blank, puzzled look and ask "Did you just propose to me?"
Bubbles would answer either "... Yes." or with a snarky Fayesque line.
BenRG:
Prediction: Momo has got an on-line lay preacher qualification (mostly to prove that she 'has a soul') and ends up performing the ceremony.
I'd expect Marten to act as Faye's witness and probably Jeremy the ex-armbot as Bubbles's witness.

I actually spent some time skulling on whether or not she'd use "propose" and decided that, since the principal context is a business arrangement, she'd opt for it, the emotional bit being outside her programming.

I'm thinking the minister who presided at Henry and Maurice's wedding would be their officiant. (Given Jeph's custom of drawing in his friends and acquaintances for cameo appearances. I suspect she's a real person - since she did a gay wedding without batting an eye, I reckon she's Unitarian.)
Yup, if it happens Faye will ask Marty. WRT Bubbles' witness, I agree, in the end she'll opt for Jeremy, but not before a strip or two dedicated to making the choice and hijinks on Pintsize's part causing the happy couple to decide to stay that way and not include him in the wedding party.
But there's no doubt in my mind that Pintsize has several online ordinations. Jimbo, too.
I'm going to get my nose out of Jeph's business now before I step on an idea he was going to use.

Bartholomew Punchbot, CPA, will accurately point out certain tax advantages if they were married. Faye, surprised at their financial condition as well as the mention of marriage, will be, for the moment, nonplussed. Bubbles will say something to the effect of "My emotion processing system is not programmed to require public affirmation of your personal declaration of commitment to our relationship beyond what we have already expressed to one another. However, Faye, I will gladly participate if you will find it gratifying. Further, since it will clearly be to our fiscal advantage to obtain legal recognition of our domestic arrangement, I propose we move forward with plans to do so before the end of this tax year. As I surmise that the event will be emotionally significant to most of our human acquaintances, and quit possibly some of our android acquaintances as well, I will follow your lead with regard to scheduling and other customary arrangements."
Faye will accept by way of an earsplitting "SQUEEEE!!!" Bubbles will then say something like, "Do you think it would be appropriate for me to ask Pintsize to serve as my witness?"

Bubbles: Do I really sound like that?

You do indeed, Bubbs, although you're usually constrained to shorter sentences by the spacial dynamics of speech balloons.
