BenRG:
Okay, I tried to be as original as possible (and a bit more concise) this week.

I'd really, really love for some world-building about one of the few robot/human romances that went all the way - All the way to the Judge who carried out the civil ceremony, actually. I don't know if Jeph would do that but, if he did, a optimist/cynic telling of the story by Momo and May would be an interesting way to do it.

My suggestion? Charlie was a clerk at a big bank; Calcula was the non-embodied AI that ran the bank's 24/7 stock market trading system. Charlie, being a dedicated kind of guy, often worked night shifts. He and Calcula had nothing else to do some quiet nights but talk and, over time, fall in love. They were the subject of several precedent-setting test cases including inter-species marriage and the first human/AI couple to be allowed to adopt. Yes, Calcula quit her job; she's happier as the Professor of Applied Mathematics and Statistics at Smif College.

Alternately, Faye could give May a try-out that has her being trialled in as many bizarre and/or eccentric possible roles at Union Robotics as possible, including being telephone cold-calling (imagine May as a telemarketer; then imagine May as a telemarketer working from a script by Faye Whittaker).

Kugai:
Dammit!

Missvoted - wanted to do the option I chose but also wanted to  vote for the second one too :-D

Oh well .......

This may come a bit out of left field, but I wanted to say: Good job!

(Not that I'd have the first idea about doing it, just liked the options)



P.S.: Why not: "Brun and Elliott have an agonising conversation about what to do if you feel attraction to someone ... when they are overheard by May who has just been told by Faye & Bubbles that after trying her out in several roles, that she is sadly, unemployable at UR - May decides to 'help' ... "?

P.P.S.: I'm seriously warming to the idea of May deciding that she's perfectly suited for a career as human relationships counsellor ...

Kugai:
Aaand

Weird

OK, if some Admin/Mot/Host is responsible, thanks  for  adding my wanted second vote.

If not, cheers to the QC Secret Elves

Zebediah:
Still waiting on my Basilisk/Spookybot buddy-cop arc. I expect I will be for a while.  :-D

Meanwhile, Clinton suddenly turns blue and grows a tail. Nobody in-strip comments about this.
