Eliot would be the Worf in this situation, though. He's much taller and looks stronger.

Yeah, Yay'd have to be established as strong *before* being thrown out.

And they do not look that physically intimidating. And if they revealed part of their true nature as a powerful AI, nobody would believe that Elliot could throw'em out with no repercussions.

So the Worf Effect doesn't really apply.

Perfectly Reasonable:

With all their smarts, I'd think Yay could craft a less off-putting metaphor. Unless that was deliberate...

Is it cold in here?:

--- Quote from: Baz_Yat on 13 Oct 2020, 06:30 ---Having slept on it, I've come to the conclusion that Yay would have better luck making friends if he explained why and how he's crap at making friends.

--- End quote ---

That raises a question. Do we have canon about Yay's pronouns? Every node has self-described as "we" so I've been assuming "they/them" but I can't remember any of them telling people what to use.

I'm actually surprised by Baz_Yat's use of "he" regardless of what Yay would want people to use to talk about them. Yay reads decidedly feminine to me.
