I don't either. I still don't see what it has to do with sociopathy that someone else in the forum does.

Again, they are fictional characters. They are not being hurt when a storyline happens when they're in a shitty situation.

i seem to remember Jeph saying a few years ago that he is not interested in having any of the characters go through too much stress!!  whatever is happening now, i am sure it will really have a good outcome that wouldn't have happened otherwise!!

In particular, they have had the shop for this long just as a couple and maybe Yay or Hanners knows some specialists who can start working alongside them!!

Okay, then let me try and illustrate it as simply as I can:


--- Quote ---lmao is it time for Faye to have a breakup/breakdown combo again

(fingers crossed it is)

--- End quote ---

Emphasis is mine.  Does nobody else see how laughing at and rooting for someone potentially descending into another self-destructive trainwreck is all kinds of problematic?

For context, the sort of "breakup/breakdown combo" they're talking about, last time around, started about here and spiralled until it culminated in a near-death experience.  So that's the sort of thing that they've stated they want to see happen again.

Yes, I'm well aware of that fact.  Jeph, of course, will do whatever he wants with his fictional characters and their storylines.  That's not what I'm objecting to here.

Wow, this is a pretty strong sign that bubbles finds Faye’s approach to the work an issue, does not consider her professional enough, and probably has felt growing resentment while never actually bringing it up to Faye.
When your both lovers and business partners, not openly discussing these things from the start is a recipe for blowups down the road.

Unclear if bubbles has simply allowed it to build up inside while never voicing her dissatisfaction, or whether she has brought it up multiple times and simply had enough of Faye not becoming more professional

Farideh:
This is an interesting one to me. AFAICS, Faye is usually pretty professional, provides good quality work, and is willing to listen to and learn from Bubbles if needed. For Bubbles to get so worked up over this incident comes out of left field. There's probably something else that is bothering her (worries about money and/or the long term prospects of UR? Relationship issues?) After all, it's never about the Iranian yogurt.
