It's In The Lease

I just wanted to mention I liked the vibration effect for the explosion.

Timothy Mann

They have talked about this

Bagge

I know what she would WANT it to look like... https://i.stack.imgur.com/jg0VX.jpg

I need more OLLIE! Pointy boi FTW!

Joseph Bonnar

Good! enjoyed the robots but need much more Claire!

jimbo

Aww, I wanted to see what mays new body was going to look like

Terry Parry

Is Melon a hobbit? 2 dinners?!

Daniel Piercy

I thought Melon's security deposit was gone years ago.

Derrik Pates

Darn. I really was hoping to see May get a new body. Hopefully that's how our next visit to AI-focused stories starts!

Mooster

She knows that both of them know about Yay Newfriend, though they may not be appraised of their new name.

I wonder if Roko will drop by Union Robotics and mention this weird AI that's been hanging around. Love to see Bubble's and Faye's reaction.

Michael Boettger

I bet even May's cheap body is supposed to do that. It just doesn't anymore, since the battery level detection is fubar.

Nancie

I took it as Roko being sarcastic about it.

Dilemma01

I love that Roko used Yay's full name, but I can't decide if she did so because she's keeping the relationship formal, or because she's buying into and appreciating the joke.

Wolfger

stupide question but ... will there is a yaaaaaay newfriend hospital wing?

Sarah Buisson

What's Melon doing having a second dinner after 9pm. That's when she has her Oobleck bath!

Andrew

Nope, never saw her with a bag from the store ...

Bill Hall

Now that the end of the arc has been reached, I have one burning question: did Roko remember to buy the shampoo?

Robert Ragona

I want to know what happened to establish this rule

Dylan T

I feel this panel in my SOUL.

Creepy Cat Lady

I absolutely love Roko's expression in the fifth panel!

awgiedawgie

No, sorry, this is Post Singularity, so it's "All AIs, All the Time!"

BobC

Yay said they didn't want to keep Roko up. In my head now, AIs with more advanced bodies like Roko can go into low power mode when they run low on battery, which causes them to act weird like a sleep-deprived human, but they don't just fall over like May's cheap model. Yup, that's canon now.

Matt Lee

eating cereal.

Jax

Yes! Yako!

Jim and Rachel Trigg

Oh god, humans? Can we ease in with how Hanners is doing? Maybe see what sort of shenanigans Station & Tilly are up to?

Miyaa

I wonder what Steve is doing?

Thisguy

Yay robots! Now you just need to make the Spookybot spinoff series that turns out to be the Alice Grove prequel.

Josh

You gotta have at least some humans for May to enjoy.

Brian

Does this mean that that hospital will get to have a Yaaaaaaaay Newfriend hospital wing?

Megan Lane

Hanners maybe?????

Joel Bateman

Roko used them too. I think you're putting too much thought into it

tamtheotter

Hey, wait a second ... Melon just used a contraction! I thought Yay was the only AI who did that. Is Melon really a sort of idiot-savant AI genius?

Carl Fink

Yes

jeff fearnow

Wait! Is it "Yaaaaaaaay" or "Yaaaaay"? Or can it connonically contain any number of "a"s, as dictated by context?

Dave Miller

Yaaaay A. Newfriend. What does the A stand for? Another!

Ted Van Roekel

Another vote for more robot arcs!

Chuck Dee

Oooooooh, that's an interesting question!

Dev

This has been an absolutely delightful arc.

Dev

Melon has the only security deposit with margin calls.

Matt Grayson

Reminds me of what the Opportunity rover said to NASA

I love those final two panels, Roko looks hilariously frazzled.

Everett Bradshaw

I may or may not be really rooting for Yay and Roko to move in together. I adore their dynamic.

Samantha Yeaman

LOL- interesting that Roko invoke's Christ's name. Do robots believe in a "God"?

Shawn K. Younkin

I'm sure we'll check in a few weeks and get caught up.

Michael Boettger

Man. I would not mind if this comic was AI only.

William Hanna

I've said it before, I'll say it again, I love our idiot robot daughter.
