It could also be that Bubs is both woman and robot

I feel like I've seen another robot get hot and bothered, and need to vent. Was it the Tin Man? Am I making this up! Help me, fellow nerds!
2018-02-06 17:15:28 +0000 UTC
Oh faye... so oblivious...
2018-02-06 15:40:16 +0000 UTC
I think the stress of not being together would be bad too! And I'm not giving up on them. The whole comic has been leading up to this. It's about love and robots, after all. Why not robot love?

Some of us feel that the anticipation will make the reward that much greater.

I wanna see ENTHUSIASTIC consent!
2018-02-06 15:10:25 +0000 UTC
I don't know about anyone else, but I'm dying for Faye to actually have a fully healthy romantic relationship for once. It's something she definitely wants, and given her improved ability to talk about how she feels as well as get other people to communicate with her, I think this is by far the best opportunity she's yet had for that. I'm not impatient for it, I'm enjoying the hell out of the current pace, this is adorable and hilarious, but I'm certainly in favor of it progressing into an actual relationship.

I know everyone wants them to be together quickly, but I kind of feel differently. Mainly because I kind of want to see something different coming out of it because we see lots of ships. I would actually prefer if they ended up speaking about their feelings and talked it out but decided, since they just opened a business together they shouldn't add an actual relationship into the mix as a single problem in the relationship can cause problems in the business, that they would not do anything now, but rather focus on making their business successful.

Faye has become more relaxed about her assets (and breastets) since strip 100 <a href="http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=100" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">http://www.questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=100</a> . Perhaps she’s more relaxed around combat droids than guys, or maybe she’s been through so much else that it doesn’t seem so important anymore. Also, marvel that the same person drew that strip and this one.

One of the most wonderful things about this comic is the variety of body types Jeph draws. The author of my other favorite webcomic, Wapsi Square (which goes into a paranormal world in the same way QC goes into a post-singularity one), is always very body-positive and "all women are shaped differently" (the cast is almost all female), but the body types in most respects are very similar.

it IS decent, but Bubbles comfort zone is something we KNOW is only slowly expanding and might be hard for her to get used to how open Faye is

Bubbles has already killed several punch-bags in one night early on in her friendship with Faye. So... yeah.

I'm with you. Assuming the coloring is deliberate, she appears to be wearing panties, and that's about a bikini bottom. *shrug*

I'd have thought Bubbles would've seen plenty in the barracks. I know a lot of those memories are gone, but I'd think there'd be some from basic training.

Bubbles is not entertaining the notion of seeing Faye's butt and boobs. Not at all...

I know Jeph doesn't do NSFW but I wouldn't mind seeing some of Faye butt. She is defiantly my body type of choice.

2018-02-06 04:29:23 +0000 UTC
Jeph, do you realize Bubbles is a large combat-ready robot who can kick your backside from one end of Canada to the other? Do you really want to torture her like this?
I know, you're saying "she's not real" but she's real to me, Jeph. SHE'S REAL TO ME. *insert dramatic flailing here*
Celine Chamberlin
2018-02-06 04:24:25 +0000 UTC
Am I mistaken that Faye had a similar conversation with Marten?

Oh, I missed the mini fwee on my first read-through. Fwee-ette?
Celine Chamberlin
2018-02-06 04:21:45 +0000 UTC
At this point I'm just waiting for Faye to realize what's going on, and admit to Bubs that she's just not into robot girls. I know the shippers would scream, but right now the whole thing is being needlessly cruel to Bubs, over what appears so far to be part one-way crush, part one-way sincere friendship.

Jeph, now you're just being mean to all the shippers. This might be teasing Bubs (who totally has a thing for Faye, who is oblivious), but it's sooo being cruel to all those people that want Faybbles to happen.
