Absolutely the fix vs sympathy thing. I'm not so good at reading those moments. Trying hard.
I love the way you draw May, Jeph. She's so expressive.

This.
Sometimes I revert to asking "Do you need help or do you just need to whine? Either answer is acceptable."

I know people like Momo, people who don't seem to realise what I want it the opportunity to moan and let off some steam, not solutions.

There was two hits. Droid 06 hitting the firetruck. And Droid 06's regret programming hitting 100% capacity..

Is that a reference to the teacher in Charlie Brown cartoons?

Wee wah wee wah is just the white noise it fades out too when I stop listening too her :-/

Well Momo can be a bit overwhelming in how much she wants to help...

i would buy a shirt with just the text DROID 06 on it
2017-09-28 05:04:02 +0000 UTC
And now for something completely different. Jeph, please make some sort of DROID 06 shirt available; I will buy that shirt and maybe buy it again because DROID 06 was just that awesome.

After a strong early showing by Droid 06, May reasserts herself as the most moe character in the cast.

is it just me or does it seem like there's kind of this motif where May has gone through the five stages of grief in the last three comics? Initially says "NOPE" (denial) then angry when she walks out of the room and tries to leave, then she tries to justify her not wanting to talk about her feelings (bargaining) then in the first panel of this, maybe the second, her body language indicates discomfort, possibly depression, then by panel 4 she's starting to accept that she needs to talk about it.
In my defense it's pretty late and life is pretty stressful lately so my mind could just be making shit up.

Now shipping at Pier 97, May and Droid 06!

THAT'S what's been missing from my life! a little "wee wah wee wah"!

I really like the way you're using May's body language to show the progression of her state of mind. The first panel, her discomfort is palpable, she starts leaning forward in the second, and, by the third, she's in a more relaxed place (mockery...because May has issues). Her avoidance of eye contact with Winslow is also a nice touch.

I thought friendship is all about tense threats about nuclear war.
