BenRG:
I think that we are going to see Hannelore do something very, very humanitarian in this coming week. She's going to let Tilly stay around because she knows perfectly well that her mother has zero patience for failure and that those who test her patience tend to meet ugly ends. However, Tilly can't just sit around doing nothing, so she's going to get her friends together to find a week's worth of busy-work.

What sort of tasks do you think that they will find for her?

I'm thinking that Hannelore will want Tilly out of her way at first, so I can see her choosing the most stressful options in an attempt to make Tilly want to quit. That would require Faye, Sam and the rough-and-tumble of Union Robotics. It may also involve dealing with the eccentric clientele at the various self-help groups.

However, I would like... and it would be a nice touch... if Tilly could find a genuine way in which she can be Hannelore's assistant. Maybe Hannelore mentions her idea of starting a movement to improve the treatment and lot of the vast majority of synthetics. Hannelore isn't the sort of person who could start a whole new charitable organisation from scratch. Tilly has likely been trained in how to make an executive's vague dreams into a reality all her professional life.

As Marten will likely say: "Looks like we've adopted another one!"

Is it cold in here?:
The idea of Hannelore launching and Tilly organizing a charity for AIs has my unconditional love.

Tova:
I really like this idea. I hope that's how it plays out.

Is it cold in here?:

--- Quote from: imaginary Hannelore ---Tilly, I've decided not only to keep you on, but to entrust you with carrying out one of my most valued projects.

Go to the zoo and do not return until you have counted every hair on every animal there.

If you don't, well, I'll just tell my mother you didn't work out.

--- End quote ---

TheEvilDog:
I kinda want the running gag for this storyline to be everyone mistakenly calling her Taffy, just with her quietly correcting them and she gets more and more resentful about. At the end of the story, Tilly reports back to Beatrice, who calls her Taffy and boom! Tilly explodes and goes on a rant at her boss.

I'm still trying to decide if Tilly gets fired or promoted to Beatrice's own PA.
