WCDT strips 4146-4150 (2nd to 6th December 2019)

<< < (2/25) > >>

Gyrre:
Space Opera, fighting fantasy, or steampunk.

Keep in mind that clockworks, constructs, golems, and Warforged are all things in fantasy. And the first three can be 'awakened' (fully sentient) or possessed by various means.

EDIT: Of course, Faye and Bubbles would have a much easier time getting business in a space opera or a cyberpunk setting.

Marten wakes up one day and finds it's all been a dream ...

Too sudden. I would prefer to get small clues that it's all a dream, which accumulate over time till he doesn't know what is real anymore (yes, I've been reading lots of Phillip K. Dick lately). In the end, Marten finds out that:

a) he's been alone in the appartment with a PC all this time - all his friends are imaginary

or

b) he's part of a simulated reality run by
(i) The Station - plot twist: everybody are imaginary friends created to entertain Hanners;
(ii) Pintsize - plot twist: Marten is Pintsize's imaginary friend;
(iii) May - plot twist: she's still in Robot Jail and creates a world as a pastime
(iv) The Praeses (I knew QC and Alice Grove were in the same Universe!)

That depends entirely on what other upgrades she'll want to attract/keep his attention - she's already proved she's willing to change her chassis/configuration to get attention.  Her boobage isn't anywhere close to Faye's size, so there's at least one other set of implants, maybe more if she steps up in sizes instead of going for "dayum" all at once.  Then, depending on what his fetish(s) is/are, there could be more.  She doesn't have real lips, since her face is a screen.  Does that mean a head transplant?  And can UR do one? 

OTOH, she's a researcher, possibly even a grad student.  So maybe this was the wad shot and if she doesn't get him, we'll see her moping around...

The Spookybots, and Yay et al are "merely the protrusions into our dimension of vast, hyper-intelligent pan-dimensional beings"

cybersmurf:
In German "self employed" is called "selbstständig". Denn man arbeitet selbst, und ständig. [Rough translation: you do the work yourself, and all the time. Since the work doesn't stop, you work for 70 hour weeks for a 35 hour salary]
