oeoek:
And no one here wonders what Pintsize has been up to lately?
(the owls his shenanigans are not what they seem).

ps: this one in Jeph's twitter was brilliant! In space you can throw for eternity...

Method of Madness:
Has anyone ever seen Faye look that angry? I'm not saying she shouldn't be, or that we haven't seen her mad before, but dang. Well drawn, Jeph.

Neko_Ali:
A point to consider. Police woman may not be here for the fighting arena itself. The fact that she was laying in wait outside of the skate park means either she's been keeping track of Faye's movements, or that she/the State Police are aware/suspect the robot fight club is going on. If they are area of it, they may be on the take, or consider what's going on to be a low priority. What they may be after is something more recent, that triggered or renewed their interest in the place. A visit by a felon on parole. May has already said she wanted to go to the fights, but was afraid that they were tracking or bugging her. To the point where she loudly talks about how she doesn't know such a thing exists, comically trying to throw an eavesdropper off the trail in the most obvious way possible.

Police Woman could be there to check up on May. Perhaps her living situation, her employment, her recent repairs that she said she couldn't afford.... If they suspect she's stealing money again, but don't have proof then they might go to the person they know did the repair work to talk about it.

Now, I'm pretty sure that the local cops in Northampton are paid well by Corpse Witch to look the other way (especially as it is arguably a victimless crime). However, something tells me that the Massachusetts State Police have a far less charitable view of her 'business', if only because of the rampant bribery and tax avoidance that I'm betting that's going on!

It kind of makes sense that you'd hire synthetics to police crime in the synthetic community. After all 'to catch a thief' and all that; they'd probably think and move at the right rate (and in the right way) to handle AI felons, something few if any humans could do.

Now... I suspect that Bubbles and Faye will shortly be out of a job. I'm wondering: Where this fact will take them?

It's most likely the 'tax avoidance' they take issue with.
The QCverse is a fair bit different than our own, but I'm betting Uncle Sam still wants his cut.

Kugai:
This may turn out to be about May in the best case

In the worst?   I wonder which countries have no Extradition Treaty


:-D
