St.Clair:
I am once again reminded of a classic and extremely relevant xkcd.
baronvonfritz:
Oh Yay, there's the arrogant spookybot, swanning around with the air of smug self congratulatory satisfaction that I fell in love with. I was a bit worried that Jeph had retconned that out of you in the re-tooning event. Hand wavey plot device didn't work so well for you this time, did it?

And as a very cuddly, affectionate introvert who's very into her alone time and isn't a fan of the pressure of "a lot of attention," citation needed on the frequency of the whole cuddly = needy thing. The people I've met who have way too many requirements for how often and in what ways they want the people in their lives to pay attention to them have not been what I'd call overtly affectionate.

to be clear, I'm not at all thinking of it in terms of the idea of being the extroverted, center of attention at a party sort of thing. (might also just be a projection from personal experiences *shrug*)

eh, they just show a different side of their personality around Roko, which is the only place we've seen Yay recently before this. (and Aurelia, but that's mostly to reinforce the 'mom vibes' motif.) Around others for whom they don't have the same level of...respect/affection/questionmark, we do see this.
Farideh:
Yay is great at summarising things.
