WCDT strips 4111 to 4115 (7th to 11th December 2020)
Farideh:
I read the synopsis for 'Repo Man' on IMDb, and it sounds hilarious 😁
BenRG:
This strip does so much to remind me why Sam is such a positive character despite all her fairly typically teenage personality flaws. She's all energy and joy; she loves her life and wants to enjoy it! However, you've got to empathise with Millifeulle sometimes about just how much you want someone involved in your procedure to be so gung-ho about getting it done!

If something like this can take out another synthetic (Roko), she doesn't want to be unprepared fr its effect on an unprepared human!
--- Quote from: Farideh on 07 Dec 2020, 19:11 ---Brun will probably be fine, she'd be more interested in 'how things work' rather than trying to imagine 'what if it was my leg?'.
--- End quote ---
Actually, you could probably create an interesting Brun quirk/arc. It turns out that she is squeamish but didn't know it because she'd never had this specific experience before. She then sets out on a quest to find new experiences to catalogue if she has a negative response to them so her 'I do/don't like this' mental catalogue is more complete!

--- Quote from: BenRG on 06 Dec 2020, 23:11 ---I'm going to say it now: Millifeulle either saw a child playing make-believe phone conversation or saw someone do this on the TV or on a video. She just picked it up as "how humans use the 'phone" and has done it ever since. Once again, we see that, on a conscious or unconscious level, most Synthetics have a strong "I want to do it how humans do it" impulse.
I do love how Brun is needing to recall Renee's advice to work out appropriate behaviour that normally simply wouldn't occur to her. I wonder how Renee would react to the revelation that she is Brun's guide to acceptable behaviour?

--- End quote ---
There's the problem with your assumptions there: 'Reputable'. I mean, it would be better for May if her employer was straight and legit but you could very easily see her being seduced by the promise of adventure and not think of the legal consequences to her from being an Outlaw Repo Gal.

'Outlaw Repo Gal' sounds like a movie/fic you've been working on for awhile.

'Firefly' meets 'Demolition Man'?

There's an old DEEPLY weird movie called Repo Man. I found it in the BetaMax section of a video rental place, and decided to give it a try (Yes, I had a BetaMax, yes I'm older than dirt. The first computer storage medium I used was a 2 inch-wide strip of paper with holes punched in it.) Anyway, it's a good (if a little confusing) movie.

The one with Emilio Estevez and Beer brand beer? That's a fun one to watch.

Why, who would ever say 'no' to more Firefly ... but ... I'd have to say at this point that this ship has sailed.
--- Quote from: St.Clair on 07 Dec 2020, 00:35 ---Millie may be my favorite character. And not just because I'm fond of that particular shade of green.

Feeling Seven Up, I'm feeling Seven Up
Reaching up, moving up, feeling Seven Up
It's a crisp refreshing feeling
Crystal clear and light
America's turning Seven Up
And it sure feels right
Feeling lucky seven
Feeling seventh heaven
Feeling seven, seven, Seven Up
