Edit: OR, they want to offer her the job, but cancel the offer when they find out she's human instead of AI.

Once again, in either case, I feel that would have mentioned it the job advertisement if they were offering remote work or if they required an AI.

That assumes she read the application properly (she’s been awful vague on it so far), remembers it correctly (see prev.), or actually applied in the first place rather than being headhunted or one of her friends (Tai, maybe?) putting her forward…

Tova:
Just to remind you, we're talking about Claire.

I suppose in many ways Marten moving to NS would kinda make sense. He was of course the initial main character, and in many ways I felt he might be the closest approximation of JJ himself in terms of parallel character/interests. JJ obviously has evolved over the years, interests have changed, perhaps he has less of a need to insert aspects of his own personality/life into the comic. Heck, perhaps the increasing stability in work/relationship and lack of drama in Marten's life reflect JJ's, who knows (I am not trying, nor want to, speculate about JJ's life as it's none of my business).

If indeed Marten was JJ's way of inserting his own life experiences/outlook/interests into the comic, then having him feature less and even move him to NS would make a lot of sense (to me, at least), actually.

What Id like to see:  Claire gets the job, she and Marten break up.  Claire is never seen again.  Comic focuses more on Marten/Faye/Dora/Hannelore again.  No more Claire.  Bubbles can definitely stay though. Bubbles is great.

What will actually happen: Not that
