--- Quote from: Tyr on 09 Jun 2019, 21:22 ---My first thought: NO, May! that'd basically be going back to robot jail! Your parole officer isn't authorized to fund repairs. Full replacement has got to be completely off the table. Meaning you're going back to runtime on a server.
Second thought: is the only thing keeping May in that body her own stubborn pride, or are her friends not ALLOWED to buy her a new one as a term of her parole, e.g. that body is lo-jacked in lieu of an ankle bracelet?

For as much as I know, nobody offered to buy her a new chassis. So the question seems kind of pointless.

Of course there is.
I’m doing the first one.
I don’t excuse her bad behaviour, I just don’t think calling her a jerk over it is any better.

If I might ask, what's your objection to the word?
Tova:
What makes you think I object to the word?
BenRG:
I've just re-read the strip and now, based on panel 4, I'm fretting quite badly that, in her current mood, that May might be contemplating serious self-harm in order to get a better chassis. You see, I doubt that her brain-core is as well-armoured and protected as Roko's.
