The Skatepark
No?
Random Wanderer:
...Is it too late for me to mention that it was Bubbles who agreed to repair May in the shop, and Faye was just acting on Bubbles' orders? Yeah, Faye might have been willing to help out on her own, but in this case she didn't have to.
If someone else already said this nevermind. I got lost among the vitriol and counterarguments and whatnot when trying to see if anyone else had said it first.
BenRG:
Jeph definitely reads the forums, doesn't he?
As for the insult... Isn't it literally like calling a biological a 'dickhead' or something? Both in intent and in comparison, too! If it's offensive, I would argue that it's meant to be!
Meanwhile, Bubbles is trying a different kind of escape from work pressures. If she turns up wearing a MLP sweatshirt one day, I won't be able to stop laughing.
--- Quote from: jheartney on 16 Mar 2016, 21:59 ---I'm wondering how common it is that AI's can't afford necessary repairs. If Momo had a damaging accident, who would pay to fix her? Are there clinics that do that? Can she buy repair insurance? When Pintsize got beat up, Martin brought him to Marigold. Is this sort of informal repair the only AI option?
I gather that the robot fight club (Jeph, can we get an official name for the place?) caters to a subculture of semi-economically-attached AI's, many of whom have no decent prospects in the aboveground economy (May being a good example of how bleak prospects there would be). It could be that their best bet for repairs is to get beat up in a fight and then come to Bubbles and Faye. May was afraid to do this, as her parole could be revoked if she tried it.

Marigold has been shown to be skilled enough to carry out even significant repairs, at least to simpler 'companion' chassis. From Parolebot's comments to May about warranties, it sounds like manufacturers, major retailers and licensed maintenance firms handle this, much as it is IRL with appliances. However, it is likely expensive if the chassis is out of warranty.
USS Martenclaire:
And then Bubbles had a vision of a huge purple dildo with large white wings, rearing dramatically against the sky....
osaka:
Does it smile? Is it singing? I know she's met Pintsize but I don't think she's met Dilly.
