Ooooh, Sam is getting a reality check soon.
Or they bill Sam for actual rent...
"But... that way I'm making no money."
"Actually, you're in the hole." :-P
DSL:
The usual progression of events in QCland has been, with one or two truly exceptional exceptions, thus:
-- Seeds of conflict sown from seemingly innocuous situation.
-- Characters define their positions within the nascent conflict.
-- Forum gleefully constructs and/or anticipates apocalyptic scenarios. (LATHER)
-- Conflict resolved more or less rationally with little bloodshed. (RINSE)
-- Life proceeds apace, with another situation set up or dusted off with seeds of conflict that may or may not be apparent. (REPEAT)
Case:
That Kid has at least Force Persuasion, if not The Voice.
Either that, or Faye is creating an Alibi before dissappearing the body parts.
BenRG:
If you can say nothing else about Sam, you can at least say this: When she's focussed, she's focussed; she's focussed enough to be immune to sarcasm. Either that or she's a spoiled brat who's so used to getting stuff on demand but that doesn't really fit with what we've seen of Jim. It's actually kind of nice that Sam is funding her own work like this; she didn't intend to disrespect Faye. It just came across that way because of said artistic focus/tunnel vision.
Meanwhile, Hannelore is particularly beautiful today, which makes me feel a lot better about the day ahead!
--- Quote from: Is it cold in here? on 31 Oct 2019, 15:57 ---Jeph has now mentioned the elephant in the room of Faye and Bubbles.
A synthetic pointed out to her companion, in front of Faye, that her companion is entirely biodegradable and impermanent.
Faye and Bubbles are already living together and have made an explicit verbal commitment to stay together. Legal documentation will follow, I am sure.
They will have to work through the fact that Bubbles is going to spend the next sixty years watching the wife she loves decline, get sick, and stop working with no chance of repair.
I will make a random guess that Bubbles will handle the issue better than Faye will.
--- End quote ---
I suspect that Bubbles has, in a very small side corner of her system, already started working on a mitigating strategy. Right now, she's wondering if she can talk Faye into accepting a Ghost in the Shell-style full-body prosthesis. Jeph has already pointed in this direction when he had Pintsize mention to Claire that the day might come when humans can switch bodies with the same ease as synthetics.
