Is it cold in here?:
Why does Detective Basilisk have chemosensors that respond to tea?
In the case of Bubbles we know her body was built to detect NBC weapons and probably explosives as well. The tannins in tea are usually thought of as harmless, but don't forget the song "Oh tannin bomb".

I'm still going with the theory that military and police grade AI chassis have a mass spectrometer built-in. In the case of the police - detecting trace evidence, toxicology and arson would be the ones off the top of my head.
Neko_Ali:
I did not expect that.
As to why humanoid anthro pcs have olfactory sensors... If you were hanging around humans all the time and trying to get along with them, wouldn't it be important to know when you stink?
Tova:
I don't see anything indicating that her chassis is custom or "police grade" in any way.

All she's probably heard about Roko comes from Faye and Bubbles, so its probably a one-sided picture, but still Hanners could have given Roko the benefit of the doubt, especially considering she's just let her friends slide on several crimes.

Uhhh....ok. If we're gonna go down that mental track, how can Hannelore be blamed? Knowing what she knows about Faye and Bubbles(and what they've been up to), and considering THEY are her friends, why would she speak to a cop, ANY cop about them? ~_^
It seems like a lot of people are blaming her for not just using some random mind reading powers on Officer Basilisk, going "O! Ok, officer. Your intentions are on the level. Let's be friends."
In her situation, an Officer comes in asking her about Bubbles. She doesn't know where such a conversation will lead or if something can accidently slip that can be used against Faye or Bubble. So, she did the only thing she can to protect her friends until she can get confirmation from them that Basi, is on the up and up. If that means freezing out an unknown entity, for now. So, be it! Remember, folks: She doesn't have all the info that we the readers have.
/sigh...idk, seems a bit odd to me to expect anything else from her other than the safest, most prudent action available to her right now.
