TheCollector:
Okay but like, I'm probably just imagining things, but like, does it look to anyone else in the fifth panel like Momo is kinda flirting with May. I mean she got awfully close there. I dunno, probably just thinking to much into it.

Cornelius:
Much as Winslow may not get why he upset May, I should think it's equally clear that she herself did not stop and think, and does not get where Winslow is coming from.

But then, consider why she was in Robojail in the first place. Sure, she struggled to get a new body, and what she did, was only to get the body she wanted. Which happens to be a fighter jet. Compare that to Winslow, who is indeed privileged in being able to choose freely what kind of body he wants, and goes for something sensible, and modest, even. After having dedicated his life so far to caring for Hannelore.

True, we don't know what May was like before, but considering her choices, and how she acts to most people, I think it may be safe to say, handing her a fighter jet might not be the best idea.

As for the interaction between Momo and May, I'm not sure how to read that. Her hesitation in panel may be her realising just how sore a point that would be with May. Panel 5 does seem quite a bit friendlier than she has been with May, considering her reluctance to cultivating their acquaintance in the beginning. Or perhaps she's just grateful not having to apologise for her privilege.

Let's just hope that she doesn't come down on Winslow as well.

Tova:
I got the impression from Momo in panel two that she knew just how May would feel and possibly even how she reacted.

Given how hard she has had to work to pay for her own upgrade, she's may have had a similarly envious reaction but was (and still is) far too polite to say anything out loud.

Perhaps, yes. Although, with her capacity for compassion, and the oft cited in this thread, social protocols, she might have considered something more than just not saying anything. After all, she must realise the increase of autonomy her new body gave her, while she already had a high degree of autonomy in her first body, compared to Winslow.

Tova:
Yes, I would agree that Momo probably was more cognisant of the broader situation.
