I think 40k has a syndrome where half the writers are aware of its over the top nature and the other half are dead serious.

Also, I'm not allowed to switch avatars.

[up][up]And since you've just come back I can finally respond to you, hopefully without the page count jumping in the middle of typing this up.

Counter: she have been present as the little spying robot from Atlas(and is posible that is actually) if you want cyborg then you dont make a personality of it....unless grimm are not your objetctive, remenber penny is a project, not a chararter....at least when atlas is concern

Assuming that Atlas is concerned about publicity (they marched an entire army into another kingdom with zero fucks given about the perception of it and right now they're image is gunning down innocent people), Penny is a robot. Her appearance is so easily changible they can just get her creator to make her a blonde with straighter hair and no freckles.

Also you're making a big assumption about Atlas considering her just a project. Since she has an Aura that's close to confirmation for having a soul, they might consider her a soldier and if that is the case then that would be more motivation to bring her back.

[up]We already have. His semblance is creating misfortunate to stop him from hooking up with women. Watch as he attempts a rebound with Ruby only for his semblance to summon a horde of Ursa.

I suspect chainsaw are, someone said this way, way earlier, anti-hunter weapons. All those tiny spinning blades, not so useful against the Grimm, but wears and tears at aura.

[up][up][up]We dont know the efect of Cinder little trick, the implication are back so is not like Atlas can just shrug off unless they are a evil empire, this create mistrust so having little cyborg who look like you isnt the wisest idea.

And you make a big assumption that Atlas can just walk away from this, also you ignore a big rule america teach to the world: you dont fix something if you can just build anothertongue

That's assuming Atlas cares. They may just have her rebuilt, damn the consequences. With the situation going on, Atlas might just decide to be the evil empire if they can keep the Grimm and Salem's plot in check.

Who's gonna stop them? Vale's effectively been crippled. So that leaves two kingdoms vs the most powerful military power in the setting.

Plus if Atlas did bring Penny back, who would really know about it? All inter-kingdom communication is cut off so unless they give Penny her own talk show complete with promotional flyers that can be smuggled into the other Kingdoms it'd be safe to say few people would know.

Not to mention the argument "they wouldn't bring her back because that would make the other Kingdoms think they're making tons of human-looking robots" falls flat because Cinder's whole point in her speech when talking about Penny was to make people think Atlas was already doing that. If people are going to fear you because they think you have a legion of robots that look like people, you might as well rebuild Penny so you can have the advantages of her.

Also what would you call an army of Pennys? I'm thinking the Crimson Legion on account of the gingerness.

Presumably (assuming they don't modify her appearance somewhat) anyone at the Tournment, or watching the footage of it could ID her, and that's not factoring in that the footage is probably on tape somewhere.

However if she keeps out of the public spotlight (like say, traveling around for heroics with the protagonists) her getting recognized would probably not be a problem. In fact that could grant her exactly what she wanted. Freedom from the Atlas military.

In fact someone theorized that Penny was intending on getting destroyed, or at least appearing to be, though probably not the way that it happened, as her "plan" for being able to stay at Beacon.

[up][up],[up] I hear da call of da Edge...

How likely is Pennybto have a copy of her old body? Cause i think that kind of Robots are not easy to make.

My theory is that Pennies use a soul or a fragment of a soul of a deceased human. That's why they have Aura and Semblance.

It coule be very likely that Penny has Pyrrha's soul. And body...

[up] They gathered all the dust minus the dust Ruby breathed in to create Penny 2.0

I could imagine Atlas claiming to just down the project and just continue research in secret.

"They may just have her rebuilt, damn the consequences"

Them consequence will have if they follow that route and I dont think they will follow negative opinion just for the sake of one robot.

"Cinder's whole point in her speech when talking about Penny was to make people think Atlas was already doing that. If people are going to fear you because they think you have a legion of robots that look like people, you might as well rebuild Penny so you can have the advantages of her."

The whole point is that Penny idea have blow out in their face.....in fact, who isnt to said that Penny idea wasnt about spy other kindoms? with atlas shadyness is a probable option, unless you are so blind to not care the opinion the other which will left Atlas as evil empire

So Bring penny back is just more problem to Atlas and so far all argument boils down to "Atlas dosent give a shit the issues and bring Penny because she is awsome" which sound like denial

As a solution to fears Penny, or others like her, could be used as tools of espionage, why not make her more robotic?

So if Vacuo is probably Austrailia and Mistral is probably Greece what does that make Vale and Atlas?

[up][up][up][up]there is the posibility that Penny is indeed a spy robot, which made her human look with a porpurse, otherwise you will upgrade your android and dont bother.

[up][up][up]We are guessing that ether America or the soviet union, the WH 40 K here want the second because it allow to use their memes
