[[caption-width-right:350: Austen (left) and Sunati (right).]]

[[http://www.webtoons.com/en/romance/always-human/list?title_no=557 Always Human]] is a scifi webcomic set in the near future focusing on the developing romance between Sunati, a VR environment designer, and Austen, a university chemistry student.

The most prominent scifi element in the story is the ubiquitous use of "mods", applied nanotech body modifications capable of practically everything from cosmetic changes to improved memory. Austen, due to an irregular immune system, cannot use them, which present no end of difficulty for her when everyone else has access to easy fixes for everything from hay fever to needing a memory boost for a test.

----
!!''Always Human'' contains examples of:
* AnimalEyes: Rae, a friend of Sunati's, possesses a mod which gave her cat-like eyes.
* BlessedWithSuck: Austen has "Egan's Syndrome", an oversensitive immune system which prevents her from using mods.
* InnocentlyInsensitive: A significant part of the drama in the story comes from Sunati praising Austen for managing without mods, and not understanding what a massive frustration it is for the latter.
* LovingAShadow: Austen accuses Sunati of this after being praised for not using mods, asserting that it isn't strength, she simply can't do it.
* OneHeadTaller: Sunati and Austen, as the page image shows.
* ShoutOut: After working up the nerve to ask for a day off so she can go bush-walking with Austen, Sunati becomes [[VideoGame/Undertale filled with determination]].
* TheSingularity: Humanity appears to have passed it, with safe, easy to use nanotechnology practically everywhere for things as mundane as hair dye.
* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: Sunati currently has bright blue hair, after numerous other previous colors. Practically everyone outside a mod-free naturalist commune has some unusual color. Cayli, a friend of Austen's, is even more unusual as they appear to have white ''feathers''.
* YouthfulFreckles: Rae has ones that ''glow gold''. Austen has them as well, but normally her makeup covers them.
* WeightWoe: While she's barely curvier than anyone else, Austen occasionally mentions needing to get to the gym or that she feels pudgy.
