Re-Centering
I need to fix blondie's side seam, it's lower than where her third arm was attached and I only just noticed!

Went and looked on the published page. I quite like the fix for the side seam.
A fitting comic for the end of an era. ❤️🥹 It just made me realize I’ve been reading this comic since I was in college…it’s kind of crazy how everything changes and we just keep on keepin on. That’s what I’m taking from this one, anyway!
I, for one, don’t believe Cubism Hell will last ‘till the water gets hot. Neither one of our valiant humans will be able to tolerate the cyberstupid flux for very long. The Big Amoeba claims they need someone to organize things. Since It is all powerful over all it surveys there is no reason it could not reform local reality as It wishes. So either it’s lying about several important details, or it is lying about a different set of very important details. Either way, nothing good cN come of this. The only question is whether it will be Bad or Worse.
I know that at one point Faye and Martin were close friends but with each entering into LTR's it doesn't seem like they were that close anymore, other then roomies.
I joined your Patreon just to tell you I have never been as moved by a day's installment as I was with this one.
Just saw how you fixed the misplaced incision in the live version, looks nice!

Panel ④ where Faye looks upward as her surroundings emerge, is she spiritually looking up towards her Dad? Does she sense how proud her Dad would have been? Am I reading too much into that because some ninja chef has been chopping onions for the past two hours?
maybe the incision had to be made lower to fix other components also?
Just... keep her sober Jeph please.
Yes,please
Martin and Faye have been through a lot and their relationship spans almost the entire comic. I do think that if it wasn't for spooky butt, they would have eventually got together; however, it's great that they never did because their friendship grew into something better.
It's been a long time since Marten sort of was the center of all the going-ons but still, I really feel with Faye here.
This blondie is amazing! She had a name? She would make a great fixed character
I think Bubbles is just working her way gradually downwards on this new roboperson and finding something different and worse under every seam. A Gameboy. An aquarium. Some crickets. A frog.
Faye is very lucky to have Bubbles. Bubbles is also very lucky to have Faye; this new, maturer, Faye-in-a-turtleneck is insanely hot :)
It's rough when your best friend moves away. You have to find a new normal. It can be done! But it's also not a trivial thing to do.
Well now I'm f**king sad.
I have found myself interacting with people that have that kind of effect, it can be unnerving how much you might unconsciously give away.
Maybe she already sealed up the damaged seam and had to make an opening further down to fix some motors or other connections that were damaged by the attempt to add a second arm? 🤷♂️
Attaching a second arm requires infrastructure, I would love to see the support system to allow full use and why stop at 3 arms!
My therapist works topless too!
Wow, that was really effective use of background or the lack thereof
I’d call that robot “M. Betty Infijay”
(MBTI INFJ for shorts)
I hope that next comic has Blondie turning around to leave, revealing YET ANOTHER arm sticking straight out of the middle of her back
Prehensile tail!... made out of arms! :)
Poor Faye.
It would be an interesting twist if slowly over time the gang moves up to Canada because of better opportunities and less insanity than here in the states, Cubetown notwithstanding.
This is Lemon, yes?
I know she's a different shade, but all the other characters look different........
Bubbles joining Faye in the "After taking a long time to open up about trauma initially now feels more comfortable talking about it as a sign of character growth" club.
It's the end of an era. But it's the beginning of another era. It's so cool to watch these characters grow as people. =)
No need to completely redraw, just extend the side seam upwards. Bubbles is just working on fixing the "modifications" Blondie made further down to accommodate the arm.
Blondie should study to be a therapist if she isn't one already. Talk about a head start.
Just re-center the seam and it's fine..
That's why she should have gone to Bubbles and Faye first.
I just assumed Bubbles had to recalibrate some things lower down and so opened up a new hole
boy, I recognized that,...
she does have a calm comforting sort of face.
Steady on, then.
Faye has really grown a lot, and I'm sure there's a lot of "dealing with it" ahead, but this is the best start I could have expected
I can feel the empty hollow feeling emanating from the first few panels 😭 or maybe that's just me putting myself in her place
"Faye's Progress: A Snapshot of Nearly Two Decades of Growth Told In Five Panels"
This. Right here. This. 🖤💜🖤
Will Faye and Bubbles need to look for a new roommate, or will they move to a smaller place of their own?
I imagine it depends if Pintsize is staying or going.
I just figured Bubs was making some repairs further down Blondie's side as a result of the attempted 3rd arm. Didn't even consider that it might have been a mistake.
The botched mount caused structural damage further down.
She has come so far, gotten so much strength, but it still hurts to have a friend move away.
Everyone needs hugs. Or yummy smelling tea of choice. Or something!!
Hugs AND tea.
Man this hits hard.....
My wife has this problem. Complete strangers will tell her their life stories, unasked.
"Why does everyone tell you their life stories?""My fear reaction is to freeze and assume a neutral expression."
🥺😭
Blondie saw a really good YouTube tutorial for recovering deleted memories, she just needs a stapler and some AA batteries.
Oof! I unmasked from my N95 + replaceable activated carbon filter five layer rainbow mask have had Blondie's troubles with people telling me things they don't even feel comfortable telling family or doctors. (I get them to see doctors and counsellors if I cannot help them with their woes myself.) Woof! (To the intense things sometimes.)
So your mask filters out unsolicited outpourings as well as virus particles?
The face that launched a thousand stories...
The new placement of Arm3 is fine IMO.
Will they try and upsell her some nipples?
Complete with a charging port!
Oh Faye ❤️🩹
Years ago, like, when Angus left, Faye would already would have drinking by now. The events of the last few hours is hitting her. She faces the impending absence of her best friend, and the income hit. But I don't see her falling apart. Bubbles will be her backstop for that. Then there's always the possibility of Union Robotics moving to Cubetown.
Faye has a life of her own now with Bubbles. I think before that, Marten moving would have wrecked her completely. She is in a much better headspace these days.
“Blondie“ seems familiar. Have we seen her before? Or is it just something about her face?
She looks a bit like Lemon.
blondie's face is an experimental cognitohazard designed for interrogation, bubbles' ecm is insufficient
Can I tell Blondie my life story now?
I bet Bergamot would be a great AI journalist in the entertainment world.
I actually really like that name for her. She DOES resemble Lemon a lot. I actually confused her for Lemon when she first appeared.
You don't need to fix the seam if she moved while bubbles was working on her and the knife slipped!
or draw a longer seam?
I want to give Faye a hug
Yes! A hug for ages past to bring her comfort and ability to move forward.
