Questionable Content

:-P And supposedly the southern parts of the US, especially Appalachia, even more so.

Comics may, I think, be one of the more difficult forms of media when it comes to conveying that someone has an accent. There's not really a visual cue you can use, and unlike prose, you can't just add a paragraph describing how a character pronounces their words. Your options seem to be either an exaggerated phonetic spelling, or having another character explicitly say "hey, you have X accent".

Depends on the intensity and familiarity of the accent. Deep South or Comedy French would probably come across fine here.

You can also imply accents based on where the character is from. You don’t have to spell out a Canadian accent, but if the character is mentioned to be Canadian, there you have it. But again, not everyone from an area has a particularly strong accent.

Original Pronunciation sounds closest to Yorkshire to me and a lot of others.

Today's strip gave me flashbacks to Cerebus the Aardvark with the accent. Also, I love Spookybot's gag at the end.

Looks like I was right about Roko and May building a friendship out of this. I wonder where they (Roko because she has no job, and May because she hates hers) go from here?

3 words.

They Fight Crime!.

Gotta say I feel much the same :v

Yeah, I think most anyone, if they wanted tits, would prefer they be huge.

.....or am I sharing too much?

Until they realise that back pains are a thing.

I guess a robot wouldn't have the same issues humans have with larger breasts. Back pains, finding brassieres that provide adequate support, etc.

Welll that depends on how the boobs are made. Would they be a hollow structure with a springy framework? Then sure. But if May just staples full out silicone orbs to her front, they'd snap her cheapass spine in half.

Not that I previously gave it any thought, but until she cupped them I would have assumed that May’s breasts were an immobile sculpted piece of chestplate, like a mannequin. Apparently the ReformChassis isn’t quite that cheap.

So cheaper robots would have literal breastplates?

Well I still suspect they're molded from plastic, just a soft-ish one.

May's hard wear looks really versatile in what it can do. Like everything is articulated unlike a lot of blocky bots we see. I think her hard wear is cheep because it's poorly made rather than anything.

If Roko wants to do some good she could become a Private Investigator, apply to join internal affairs, or get involved with charity work: a lot of wellfair that provides social mobility can be more effective at crime prevention than a police force can. Heck in the US the presence of a train station is a better indication of crime rates than the size of a police force. (not that Roko could become a train, but just providing reliable transport to people as charity does real good for communities)

If May could become a fighter jet, I can see Roko becoming a train.

Sure, but like, she'd have to get someone to build her tracks first.

In theory, she could just leave her humanoid chassis in some kind of charging station or something while she has her consciousness in the train. Unless I'm forgetting something about the time and/or effort it takes for an AI to transfer between machines.

No, Momo hopped into the chassis in the store pretty quickly.

Beep boop

How do you fuck up RICE?

Leave it on the stove with not enough water in the pot and then get distracted watching animes?
