:( Right in the feels, Jeph.

SpookyPenguin

That was brilliant from Melon, poor Roko.

Ace

Why would Roko have a vegetable peeler to begin with?

The Shadow's Lair

Roko... as a trans male I know. I tried to peel off my face when I was 15.

Captain Button

"Just washing *this* face!" Not "my face!" 8~-({

Charlotte Grubbs

Those body-dysmorphia-induced self-harm feels....

Dean Reilly

If that's just one of those hollow-core interior doors, Roko may be about to lose her security deposit.

BobC

Elliot :fist-palm:

Sleepy John

Well, we may be about to see who's stronger, the robot or the tower of gristle.

Sleepy John

Can he restrain her while Melon calls for help? Will Melon do anything besides shout "HELP"? Or run down the hallway calling "911! 911! I don't know anyone named 911!"

Pavel Curtis

"This Elliot moves mountains." "This Elliot moves stars."

Mitchell Sealy

You know, her face probably could be rescupted to match her old face, by a skilled enough hand. A vegetable peeler and a mirror isn't the way to do it, but there are probably possibilities that exist for somebody like her that would be more difficult for a human.

Zach Elwyn

Also, and I think maybe I should know this already, but are human-form AIs anatomically correct in a way that would make it awkward for either of them?

Firefly Jelly

Elliot, dude, you used to be a bouncer. You should know never to bust down a door with your shoulder. Stomp your foot as close to the latch as you can.

Fart Captor

It's already customized to be identical. It just doesn't feel like it's part of her

Fart Captor

They CAN but it's optional equipment. May was annoyed that her chassis doesn't have any Roko might still be embarrassed even if she doesn't have naughty bits though. Like how it can still be embarrassing to be caught without pants even if you have underwear on

Miyaa

Was there an actual difference between Roko’s old face and this one? I didn’t see anything different, but I’m not sure of such things.

Elf Sternberg

I love panel 4. I love how, when she realizes it's really necessary, Melon hands every megabyte she's got to Therapy Mode, and says exactly the right thing.

Populuxe

On a side note, I was grocery shopping today and saw someone wearing a “Jetpacks are impractical and dangerous” t-shirt and had to say hi.

Leona

ANGST SOLSTICE

Kinda Squirrely

Elliot using his beef for good. He needs a cape.

Dylan T

I love how elliot doesn't even need to wind up much to break in a door.

Andrew

If she needs cleaning advice call Hanners. Who will also definitely be the best person to talk to.

Chris Heg

AI body dysmorphic disorder. Maybe she should go back to the old model without the butt logo.

awgiedawgie

It's subtle, but it is different. It's like I said yesterday (well, under the previous strip anyway), it's similar enough that many people don't notice the differences, especially over time, as their memory of the old face fades. But Roko sees every little detail. My nose is different. My chin is different. My eyes are uneven. But nobody but me and my own mother notices. I didn't have any trouble accepting the face in the mirror, but I am blessed with that ability. Roko - clearly - is not.

Bagge

"Just washing this face". Not "my face" :-(

Reyn Goldfur

I like how whenever Elliot is about to do a Strong Thing, his physique becomes more defined like a toned down version of All Might.

quick melon make the oolong tea

KHawk

Bouncer Elliot to the rescue!!

Kuragari

Seems like some AIs really need therapy for new body dysmorphia. Poor Roko.

awgiedawgie

That's normal for anyone who is especially muscular. It's impressive that Jeph can capture it in comic form.

Joe

'this' face ... sigh ...

Joe

illegal to sell used chassis?? doesn't make much sense. what happens to the old chassis when someone decides to change?? like Momo's old one, or Winslow's?? seems like a waste if those can't be reused. maybe a donation process??

Summer Sudbrink

Kind of hoping for Spookybot intervention any moment now.

Matt Grayson

SB could probably give excellent advice without re-engineering Roko’s mind. What are friends for?
