Melon why did you take off your pants, that was not necessary for this procedure
We do not know how much of Melon caught on fire. Her butt might well be patched too.
Even though I've been reading QC for years I somehow forgot momentarily she was an AI, and thought about the pain a human would go thru on fire like that. No wonder some AIs call humans "meatbags". We're so fragile!
I hope they can restore her appearance - new Melon will scare children.
I'm pretty sure Old Melon scared children. ether that or their parents
Manic Pixie Droid Girl is Hot
Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me forty-seven times…
…buy a fire extinguisher with my name on it
Melon, and her siblings, may keep Union Robotics afloat.
Melon looks rad
I'm glad we haven't abandoned the title "Spookybot".
Same. I named my car after them.
I wonder if yay would be upset they weren't invited.
I’m really loving this look for Melon.
She's the AI of UNITY from 'Skin Horse".
Melon’s looking baller tho
She told you she was hard-core.
Oh, good. We only see her post-repair. I was honestly worried. :)
Is Melon a deliberate contrast to Roko in that Melon is entirely detached from her body to the point of lacking self-preservation?
an interesting thought. One which I will explore with passing interest after a couple more puffs of smoke.
Man, she WAS Blind Melon, or at least half-Blind Melon IT'S NOT SAAAAAAAAAANNNEEE
Melon = Stein ?

Note that I'm not asking, but I would be totally unsurprised to find that Jeph wrote Faye's line specifically to tell the commenter here (and the rest of the audience), "No, Yay Newfriend is not a get-out-of-jail-free card for all protagonists, meaning that no plot will ever again have tension." I mean, he would certainly write it more eloquently than that, but ....
Absolutely, and also to reiterate that "Spookybot" is canonical.
47 you say? https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/47
Melon looks ready for the next Mad Max movie
Mad Melon?

Reading only this you could almost imagine Melon wearing a monocle.
Roko: Get a dog BEFORE asking Yay, then ask while they're meeting the dog.
I love that the question was non-rhetorical and the answer was immediately at hand.
Omg she is even more adorable somehow
Just the look Melon has been trying to find
If there had been a naked pillow fight, the fire would have been snuffed immediately.
Franken-face aside, I am loving Melon's new haircut. She should keep it.
And naked.
Jeph? I KNOW you prefer short hair but wasn't that just a bit harsh JUST TO TRIM BACK MELON'S MANE?
It's our idiot robot frankendaughter!
Only 47 times?
She’s probably off by a factor of 10.
The different-colored eyes is a nice touch.
You know, I seriously doubt that Melon knew she would catch on fire. She should have known something bad would happen, but not fire-bad. I myself have been on fire multiple times, and while alcohol was involved in most of them it was never the actual cause.
Speaking of lawyers, "if you turn drunk up too far you catch fire" sounds like a design defect that someone could get sued for. Wait, by any chance did Valley Semi make Melon's drunk chip? That might just work!
I was thinking, that sounds like a SERIOUS design flaw. Especially as I went back a few strips and she has smoke COMING FROM HER EARS
Looks like we missed Melon's melted moment.
Sigh, Melon. Does her job screaming covered with bugs pay well? It might be time to buy a new bod.
well thats a new look
Does Yay know that their nickname is Spookybot? Cause I'm pretty sure they'd love it
They know so many things... surely they must...
47 is a darned good number.
All the smugness
Will Melon keep the heterochromia? I hope so!
She may develop homochromophobia!
47!
42 would've been perfect though.
Definitely not a bitter Melon.
"Having a moral code sure sucks sometimes" belongs on a t-shirt.
It sure does. The shirt idea is good, too.
Omg the poor cinnamon roll
Jeesh, been a whole since we've heard them called Spookybot. Nice little bit of nostalgia there.
Fire. Always a factor.
If it's styled right, I can see Melon really rocking that haircut.
Just admire Yay's bewildering puissance and they'll be satisfied.
Melon is going to need some repairs!
C'mon, we all knew Yay would come up sooner or later.
I ❤️ Melon!
