I'm wondering how Bubbles will interact with Emily. Remember what an "arms race" was like for her? Oddly, I can easily picture Bubbles pursuing classes and working toward a degree, but she's such a recluse she'd probably do it online rather than showing up at Smif.
Or Tai. She deliberately downcycles her CPU -a lot- using weed, and somehow I doubt that Bubbles the self-control freak is completely comfortable with that.
Or Steve. You suppose she'd perhaps have something to say about his relationship with Tortura, who by profession is likely a government employee doing something that Bubbles-the-soldier was likely to have had at least an interest in, but by accent seems unlikely to have been doing it for the same side?
And somehow I wonder whether Sven Bianchi will hit on her and how Faye would react. He seems to enjoy adventurous new sexual experiences, and she seems not to enjoy the thought of him having them. Plus she has to work with Bubbles, and it would be awkward at best.
I'm also thinking that as a long-term employee of the ring, who doesn't get out much to spend money on recreation or frivoloties, who doesn't have a grocery bill nor pay rent for an apartment, she is likely to have a whole lot of cash saved, and she could probably throw it at something if she decides to. Possibly an Idoru chassis if she decides she wants to be more nonthreatening and potentially-social. Although Momo would probably loan her old KawaiiPC chassis if she discovered Bubbles was looking for something less threatening, I doubt Bubbles, who evidently wears battle armor all the time even though it's removable, would go for that extreme a nonthreatening look anytime soon.
