The humanisation of Yay continues with a tacit admission that they do feel a certain amount of awkwardness about their past behaviour. Also, yes, it is possible that they suffer from mottephobia. :-P
So, what does Yay want with the work being done by Invisible Emu? I know that they're paranoid about being discovered, feeding into my theory that they're a runaway NSA communications monitoring system. Do they like the idea of being literally invisible? If they were, just how would they abuse that because of their instinct to snoop?
I wonder how long it's been that Roko has wanted to meet the SpookyPups?

I was thinking of one of the Emily scenarios, then I was thinking of the space station scenario - then I thought, "Why not one where Emily gets a job on the station? Where her wild talents and imagination would be appreciated!" ( and generally safer - i.e., not among the general unsuspecting population! :-P )
Heck, why not a whole spin-off on board the space station, with Emily among a population of fellow propeller-heads?! :-D

I think the NSA has several black bag squads and a hojillion lawyers on standby to prevent exactly this situation occurring, mainly to prevent either Earth or Station suffering abrupt terminal existence failure because hypercardigans are bad enough already, thank you very much.

So long as the next part isn't 'BOOM' or the AI getting fried that could be an interesting plot.

I have a favored scenario that starts like that... and continues, in this case, with these characters to:
as the smoke clears, an OLDER BUBBLES stands in front of a glowing portal wearing an adorably domestic apron and holding a tray of cookies, flanked by OLDER FAYE, OLDER CLAIRE and OLDER MARTEN, who are all wearing body armor and carrying futuristic weaponry.
BUBBLES
Alright. Pay attention now, as this is where it starts getting weird. First: Have a cookie.

That's when things get weird... and potentially an insurance liability. It takes all of Emily and Hannelore's father's respective genius and Yay pulling a few strings but they do eventually de-merge Sam and Beepatrice. However, both of them do agree that their perception of the world has been permanently altered and their minds are still quantum entangled so, occasionally, Beepatrice finds herself answering questions Sam has been asked in school several miles away. Also, Sam has got in trouble more than once by blurting out the details of the latest experiment Beeps is carrying out in her day job.
Oh, and thanks to Beepatrice's complexes on the matter, Faye now has a rival role-model in Sam's mind. That said, no-one is really complaining about Sam developing a 'save the world' complex from Beeps desperate attempts to emulate Roko or experimenting with the ex-policebot's aesthetics.
