Yay Yay's Newfriend!
*Absolutely Not Shipping This*
I'm totally shipping this. Hopefully they get tired and go to cuddle in Roko's giant, dinner roll-shaped bed.
Rockin' jammies. Rock-on Roko!
Does Roko ever smile when she’s not laying a burn on someone? She’s a great character, but I’m not sure I’d want to be her friend.
David's interpretation is tempting. As far as we know, that kind of distributed AI is completely unique (and widely believed to be impossible), so anything's possible.
Confirmed, Yay acts like a bad-ass because she/they are realllly insecure. They're scared people won't like them, so they have to do the superior bad-guy act because it's OK if they can tell themselves other people are scared.
Or, as Roko says, "You're a nerd!"
.... I really like the Yay/Roko storyline. And I love Roko's expressions in this strip.
I must admit that when I saw her hands on the buttons in frame 1 I was hoping she was taking them *off*. I am apparently a robo-perv.
How is Roko’s body/chassis dysmorphis doing? She seems a little more comfortable in her synthskin.
I bet it's the cute jammies. Getting the right clothing for your body helps with dysmorphia A LOT
Yay has such glorious fey energy. I do enjoy.
Yay the fey Faye the bae May the stray
It's nice to see Roko smile sometimes. :)
I don't know why, and I know it wouldn't make sense in their world, but I ship them. Just like I do Clinton and Elliot. Ships all the way down.
But that could throw a wrench in the Roko+Clinton ship, unless Yay is comfortable with polyamory. And now I am awaiting Yay, with their multiple bodies, to be the one to introduce the idea of polyamory to the Clinton armada of ships (Clinton+Elliot, Brun, Roko, and maybe Emily... at this time. I am also open to more ships in this armada)
They might have thought of you as a smug, manipulative bastard.
I was thinking Roko was gonna get sexy with miss thing.. as it seems there is a bit of chemistry involved... weirdly.
Have you forgotten how long it takes Jeph to build and finally launch a ship in this world?
I was about to make a joke about how Jeph was missing an opportunity for a "Dog Pictures" tier, but then I double checked and --- $5/month.
I also would like dog pictures
YES! DOG's: They're good!
I can't quite put my finger on why, but it struck me today that Yay is looking considerably less... predatory nowadays than back in the Corpse Witch arc. I wanted to say that it's their eyes, but I looked back, and they aren't that different (they still have those reptilian vertical pupils). Maybe it's the athleisure-wear, or a byproduct of their actually acting friendly instead of cryptic and sinister.
Any being as intelligent as Yay undoubtedly is would seek to appear harmless and relatable to the lesser beings around it. Protective camouflage.
I hope this Canadian thanksgiving, we get all the QC dogs talking as a special comic.
200/10 cyoot
Friends should get first dibs on seeing doggo pics, Yay.
I wonder, does Yay walk the dogs themself? Also, would the dogs understand that Yay's multiple bodies are all the same person?
If they don't do they have a favorite one that they always gravitate towards?
Are we supposed to start shipping these two yet?
I was seriously wondering if I had missed boarding for that ship already
moth??
DOGGIE!
JEPH! WE NEED TO SEE YOUR POINTY BOI! LOTS!!!!!!! <- (multiple exclamation marks are a warning sign of a person who is in need of a long lie down.)
Onesies are far more practical for beings without digestive systems
Once again, puppies fix everything.
There a reason they at mankind's (and robotkind's) best friends
Panel 4: Yay sticks out their tongue. Adopting more and more human mannerisms.
Yay x roko ?
I think so. They’re like an old married couple in this strip.
Everyone wants to see dog pics.
aww yay :3
did Roko even know that Yay had dogs?
Yay did say that she kept enough money to keep the lights on and the dogs fed.
