your very own beepatrice

Shoulda drawn that last word balloon with two tails. I realized that's implied, but...
Beeps has the expression of a cat that's just been picked up by the scruff of its neck.
All those expressions in the last panel...
Beeps is wondering what she has gotten herself into now.
My prediction: Pintsize hits it off with beeps and goes to live with her, then Marten gets sad.
To show you how much Questionable Content has warped my mind, I was just perusing the IMDB and came upon a reference to a character named "Al," which caused me to stop and think, Was there an A.I. in that movie? Hahaha! "And Betty, when you call me, you can call me Al..."
no Faye. seriously. no. Faye. NO.
...... sorry. On topic: IMPO Beeps needs a handler.
Irritation. Get off Martens jock. Holy Spit - he has spent years with Pint Size. Pint size usually tries crazy crap on for size YEARS. hE CONSTANTLY DOES STUFF TO GET A REACTION. As far as Marten was concerned,.... this was more of the same. He not "phobic" anything,.... he is someone who existed in a place where he has to watch out for falling sex toys, save the droid from the freezer, get hit by the droid with a big purple dildo, rescue the droid from his more dangerous actions, and every week it seemed to be something different. AAAAAAARRRRRRRGGGGGGGHHHHHH!
Who said Marten was any kinda "phobic"? All Claire did was say his name, and correct his assumption that Pintsize was doing this as one of his usual bits That is not something that warrants being so aggressively mad. Chill.
I’m surprised Yay hasn’t walked by Beeps saying “we would never read your thoughts.”
I know it's all in good fun but a gentle reminder that AIs are people, not property.
Can I have my very own Beepatrice?
Would Pintsize get Beep's job too?
Sadly, he'd probably do at least as well in it.
?? Kinda arrogant. Different strokes - Happy trails Mr. Gough.
Faye? Arrogant? Perish the thought.
Where will pintsize 'sleep' or recharge I wonder.
probably in the corner like he has been.
Adopt accidental wanderers!
This has been the modus operandi since week one after all.
I didn't know I could care about Marten enough to hate him but he just reminded me distinctly of a friend's transphobic parents and now I hope he either turns it around extra fast or gets turbo-karma'd
Or, on the other hand, he's spent the last several years living with Pint-size, is thoroughly tired of having to be the one who deal with the craziness, destruction, and actual crimes, and was just assuming that it was another one of those situations. Pint-size doesn't get a free pass from skepticism because his life has changed.
From here on out my headcanon is that Beepatrice is made with a lightweight endo steel and weighs a very liftable, elfin 40 pounds.
AIs aren't pets, Faye. You're being kinda offensive here.
Faye’s just collecting ladybots isn’t she?
As it seems to be equally portable, I've decided to name my Kaypro II Beepatrice.
Hahaha! I bet I'm the only other person here who actually owned a "transportable" Kaypro II.
Nobody else wonders about Bubbles' reaction to this? I sense a plot complication coming...
I mean, I know who I'd rather live with. Pintsize would make a fine drinkin' buddy, but when it comes to the rent? Nope.
Pintsize has dough. We don't know how he gets it but he got that body on a whim, and I think I remember he gave Faye a stack of bills to decorate her new room when they first moved into their current apartment.
Man does this mean pintsize is going to have to enter the workforce now
Faye coming off as… greedy(?) here….
It’s fine. It’s not like Beeps has any agency of her own or … wait that doesn’t sound right
YOUR OWN PERSONAL BEEPATRICE 🎵
Beeps made a squeaky toy noise when Faye picked her up.
Makes sense that Claire is more sensitive to body change topics that the cis people involved
No Faye 😂😬🤦🏽
If Martin says now, I'll take Beeps in. She will even get her own room. I mean, it's the shop in the back of the garage, but since robots aren't worried about hot and cold, and there's plenty of room for a charging alcove, she'll love it!
I’m relatively sure that AI would care about staying cool
Why does Faye still live there, honestly
split rent costs? wasn't she having trouble budgeting food?
Putting Pintsize in the same building as Melon is dangerous
They both have a limitless supply of stories involving sex toys, but Beep’s stories aren’t mean spirited.
Wait, is Beeps the gender distaff of Pintsize? I thought that was May?
Indeed, and I suspect that difference is *why* Faye wants to trade roommates. No point swapping out Pintsize if you're just getting Other Pintsize instead.
I appreciate Marten's instantaneous self-correction from grumpy skepticism back to supportive pal. ❤️
Please help me understand that reading. I'd like to like Marten again but he seemed more defensive than actually supportive to me.
Listen, Faye, I agree with you, but I feel like that would probably violate like several leasing laws
Faye feels the same way I do about Beeps
Seems like both Pintsize's body and mannerisms are going to change. Into what, I wonder... (I mean, I already know what the body's like. I'm just being poetic.)
I'm kinda looking forward to it. He all too often crosses the line between endearing and annoying and it looks like the new body might at least trim the excesses in his behavior.
Oh, poor Beeps. She doesn't deserve that treatment, she looks so despondent. 😢😢
If she and Beeps teamed up, Faye could re-model the dildo-driver gun into a stegosaurus, or something even cooler.
Dildosaurus?
Claire has the patented "I don't believe this is happening look".
That slump-shoulder posture is one of Jeph's trademarks, for me.
How much does an AI body like Beeps weigh?! I gotta know now, is Faye holding up like, 50 pounds or 200.
I was curious as well
I vote yes
I want my own Beeps. Where do I get a Beeps?
At the dildo factory, duh. XD
Did Faye turn Beeps off? She's got kind of a blank look on her face.
I think she’s doing that thing that happens when you pick up cats and they stretch out and go limp.
Yes Faye. Very yes.
Someone refresh my terrible memory: have Faye and Beeps met before?
Beeps was in the shop before, but I think only as a customer of Sam.
I vote yes, keep Beeps
Patreon poll: trade Beepabeep↔️Pintsize?
I'm curious what Yay would think of Pint-size.
I assume they're acquainted on some oddball forum. I like to imagine a contest for racing to find the porn title that best fits a prompt, and they were both in the top 3. While it's funny to picture the god-tier AI coming in second to the specialized underdog, it's more funny to picture them both losing to a random Steve, who earned their mutual respect that day, teaching them about love, friendship, the true meaning of DVDA, and that the rules didn't specify running your own porn studio wasn't allowed, just that they had to be real titles.
Yes Faye
