Lol AI charging stations. It's the dock of anthro-pcs

Millie

This is so perfect.

JD

That is so Yay.

Evgeniy Semyonov

Yay! You can't spell "Eldritch Superintelligence" without CUTE NERD.

Tim Keating

Keeping the "spooky" in spookybot. Tell me that's not a vampire coffin right there...

Miyaa

I give it an hour before melon & yay are smooching inside the pod or in Roko’s apartment which caused Roko to ask them to go find a room.

Anonymous

So... She made a cozy for a charging coffin-er-kiosk?

Has Jeph put any writings anywhere that covers the societal changes of QC's world? Like the AI charging basement, are these AI sort've homeless and just pop in for a nightly charge? Are AI's like Roko and Melon average or unusual because they rent accommodation?

Evgeniy Semyonov

I'm not sure Melon is into smooching. I presume her sexuality is as quirky as her tastes in drinks and food.

I don't think Jeph has put any specifics up (yet) but Yay mentioned they were renting the pod - so presumably it's an option for AIs that is either cheaper or simply more convenient for those not hoping to entertain guests. I guess companion AIs usually live with their companion, as seen with Momo, Pintsitze and Winslow. Everyone else has to find their own charging opportunities (As seen with Bubbles, May, Roko and Melon (and Melons buddy who's name escapes me right now)) As for homelessness in AIs, I'm curious myself. Looking at Mays shitty treatment, it's very possible that there are homeless AIs on the daily search for a charger station, though I guess they might be able to abandon their body if things get too rough? Lots of interesting material here

Emma Humphries

Why are the chargers in the basement? Why don't they have curtains. I don't want people creeping on me when they do their laundry while I'm recharging!?!

Jason

I want that blanket, pod cozy, thingee. Where is Melon's Etsy? 🙂

John Peterson

Still trying to figure out Spookybot's neck seam...

Bagge

...cute?

This ship is sailing!!

Mark Thomas

maybe it's less of a "neck seem" and more of a "muscle/tendon" wrinkle, with certain motions causing the bunching up of her skin in that area and the flat drawing style not clearly delineating the difference. Spookybot seems to advanced to be together with clearly visible head/arm/leg seams

So with the washing machines being in the same place, are these "wash'n'charge" stations? With touchless charging, so you can also wash at the same time while using an inductive magnetic field to charge.

David Durant

No-one is commenting that Melon's created a cover fit for a Great Old One and that yay seems first surprised and then pleased...

Anonymous

Melon is such a good girl!

Can I buy this as a cloak in size 4xl? And if so when will it arrive?

Summer Sudbrink

Somebody's been watching Godzilla vs the Smog Monster.

Christopher Beer

So, does this make Melon an interior or an exterior decorator? :^)

I'm getting serious Hellsing Ultimate/Castlevania vibes from that cover. Like if someone opened it they'd unleash an unholy scourge on the land.

Joseph Bonnar

Ok. Now shipping Yamelon.

Joseph Bonnar

I'd need to hunt, but I believe Yay mentioned that they had rented a charger pod in the basement. Lemme look and see what I can find, Emma.

Douglas E. Smith

I know what I want my next blanket to look like now!

Matt

Gravity Falls limited edition charge pod!? Sweet!!

Steve

Love it! Is Yay wearing Crocs? I pictured them as more of a Gazelles wearer lol!

Populuxe

Why is everyone shipping Melon and Yay when Melon already lives with her boyfriend?

Andrew

Melon would still try to use a washing machine though wouldn’t she :) Then be all “it makes me so dizzy!”

Evan

Because you can ship anyone with anyone for fun obviously

Andrew

And of course she made it out of a cover from some old mirror, throwing away the sign that said “abandon all hope all ye who gaze upon this portal”.

Populuxe

When Yay speaks, does anyone else hear the voice of Jacob Tobia aka Double Trouble on She-Ra?

Matt Grayson

What is Yay thinking in the first panel? "Wait! How did she intercept a message from the D.O.R.D?"

Anonymous

That is perfect for Spookybot.

Thisguy

Always love these two

Yonatan Zunger

I'm kinda fascinated by how quickly this comment thread went to shipping Melon with various others. I'm also kinda fascinated by my imaginings of what Melon's love life would be like. No, wait. Terrified. The word is "terrified."

Some Ed

That's not a vampire coffin right there. No, I'm not going to do everything you asked, but that one was pretty easy and harmless.

Some Ed

I don't recall any word of god on this, but it feels to me like AIs that just rent charging pods are an odd mix of poor (but not homeless - the charging pod counts as a home.) and minimalists who are probably fairly well off. AIs that rent apartments or serve as companions are living the dream.

Some Ed

I think Melon's buddy is one of the (many) Arthurs.

Joseph Bonnar

I'm familiar with the (non)word dord. I'm not familiar with the D.O.R.D. abbreviation. :)

Joseph Bonnar

I know. I'm guilty of it myself. Of course nothing has ever come of me trying to ship Pintsize with Droid 06 for the classic 6pint. *sigh*

Mason Griffith

You also have to remember that Roko was Yay's first friend shortly followed by Melon. This is probably the first gift Yay has ever gotten, and its hand made.

Anonymous

Thank you for this. I really needed a "We love it" face.

Anonymous

I have had an astoundingly shit week and this made me feel so much better, thank you so much 💖

The fact that there are a bunch of Borg style charging cubicles in the basement... makes me think there's a huge robot underclass. Do these robots roam the Cyberverse while charging, a la _Snow Crash_ or _Neuromancer_? Because I'd like to think that's a thing... that they can just plug in and wander the net, so they don't have to simply stare at the laundry machines all night...

Melissa

Yay would definitely fit in as Daemons in Black Sun.

Jason Rock

I'm sorry, y'all are missing the point with all these shipping comments. The important question is, "Omg where can I buy this fabric?"

Mark

The contrast between Yay's expressions really makes this strip!

Cass

I've been trying to tell you all for ages: Melon is best girl.

Bill Hall

Is this not Yay’s first “squee?”
