BenRG:
Okay, a couple of weeks early but I'm running dry and the new year is close enough that this is a valid poll. I'll leave it open until the new year or beyond just so we get as many responses as possible. So, what would you like to see in Questionable Content in the year ahead? I don't pretend to have given every possible option so I will welcome 'Other' comments.

I, for one, would be really interested in seeing how young AIs live and how they decide on their first jobs. It might work well as part of Hannelore's focus on working to support the rights of disadvantaged AIs. I'd also like for Jeph to perhaps pull a surprise or two out of the hat with Faye and Bubbles. One idea that really appeals to me is the possibility that maybe they get too successful too quickly. Not only is there the pressure to live up to their reputation, there is the very real logistical issues of having customers literally waiting around the corner. It turns out that neither of our principals really knows how to be a boss!

As for this week, I'm expecting either the next phase of Hannelore's story this week or, possibly a week of fillers so that Jeph can really focus on the next major narrative arc from the start of next year.

Bubbles/Faye goes canon!

Tilly gets eaten by a dinosaur.

Angus comes back and ALSO gets eaten by a dinosaur.

New comic up!

A perfect example of 'Don't make that face or it may get stuck that way.'

BenRG:
I think that we can safely say that Hannelore has finally had enough of her mother's amoral and selfish behaviour. It's just impacted on her personally too strongly and I also suspect that she feels enough sympathy for Tilly that she feels aggrieved on their behalf too. Panels 1-3 all suggest that Tilly is more than a little worried about what's going on in Hannelore's head and what she is going to do to Beatrice when she confronts her.

I expect Hannelore to simply tell Beatrice that she's done with her shit, that their relationship has to change or they'll go their separate ways and never interact again. I expect Beatrice to throw around money and maybe threaten to cut off Hannelore from her allowance (which I am not convinced she would have the power to do - she's probably need Dr John's agreement and I don't think that would happen). However, I strongly suspect Hannelore would invite Beatrice to do her worst because there is nothing worth being her mother's plaything any longer.

FWIW, what I would like is for Hannelore to walk in and announce: "I am Hannelore, daughter of John, Princess of the Space Station. Now, in the name of all that is good in this world, your wrath on this world is ended!" She then shrugs off her coat to reveal a suit of Hellenic armour and pulls out the CoD under-counter sword.

This has happened to Hannelore before, specifically her 'SQUEE!' expression when Marigold agreed to date Dale. Repetition makes me wonder if it is a real physiological problem on Hannelore's part! :wink:

Tova:
That outfit looks familiar.
