Farideh:
Or in Charon's obol (money for the ferryman).

Gus_Smedstad:
I just have to point out that on a rice-and-beans diet, you're going to get scurvy anyway. Apparently soy beans have a moderate amount of vitamin C (I had to look that one up), but just about everything else is just trace amounts. As in, a normal serving gives you about 5% of the vitamin C you need.

Of course, since Faye is not in fact an 18th century sailor, should could always take vitamin C tablets. And probably should if that's really her diet.

Farideh:
I'm pretty sure it was mentioned in a previous comic that Faye takes supplements.

Oenone:
Also, I’m sure she gets free food/drinks at the coffee shop. It’s not great eating but she’s probably not getting scurvy.

BenRG:
Okay, so that confirms that Faye and Bubbles are in serious problems as to their cash flow. The point that Bubbles is making to Faye here is that they can't really help May when they're in a position where they seriously need help themselves!

Maybe the time has come to start reaching out to build up a customer base and maybe to get a regular retainer fee. Could the Advocacy Group maybe send clients their way? UR has low enough margins to be able to underbid most large maintenance providers and is local. GP offices near me are always on the look out for local care services to recommend to their patients so why shouldn't synthetics needing help require the same?
