However, neither Melon nor May were really upset in the terms of their bodies being damaged other than the inconvenience of lost function and difficulty interacting with humans. They didn't seem to suffer the trauma and disorientation that a human who had suffered a disfiguring injury or a traumatic amputation would.

Yea, "not upset but worried about money" and "pissed at the person whose fault it is" are pretty much the only two reactions I've had to figuring out my car needs fixing.

New comic! I think Momo is the only character in QC history to turn down an opportunity for hangouts in favor of actually doing her job. She's coming off as a lot more responsible than the Coffee of Doom crew, or even Marten and Tai. Unless of course she just has some reason to want to ditch Winslow.

She's coming off as a lot more responsible than the Coffee of Doom crew, or even Marten and Tai. Unless of course she just has some reason to want to ditch Winslow.

It miiiight be a bit of reaction to his new body. I can't tell if that's just the shadow of her bangs, or if she's actually blushing. But the stutter kinda sells me that Momo is on the verge of a freak out. Which would be legit on a number of reasons: She's never interacted with Winslow in a new chassis, and she has to process how she feels about that. It may not culminate in anything (I really hope not anyways) but it's still something we humans deal with. I think we've all had that moment where someone who may not have been attractive before has a moment of change and you have to go "Wow, I never thought about that person this way before. What AM I think even?". It may not culminate in true attraction, but this is a new experience for her. Meanwhile little Winslow is so used to being asexual as an ipod chassis, he's probably not remotely aware that odd skin aside, he's perfectly attractive to other humanoids.

Edit: It's hard to read the intended age of Winslow's chassis. I'm gonna give QC's world the benefit of the doubt that they don't sell chasis specifically designed to emulate children or teenagers under the age of 16-18, since that opens a whole can of worms I don't wanna address.  I'm gonna guess both Momo and Winslow's body types as 18, albeit ridiculously slender and short compared to the average human. Getting strong Serah Fallon from FFXIII vibes off these two: Tiny body, but full mature adults. Given Momo's tendency to be interested in anime boy types, Winslow might be triggering some of that attraction.

Winslow looks cute in his new chassis. Is that creepy to say? Probably.

Yeah, just a little. See above quandary. It's a little less problematic with Momo, since females can be shorter/sleighter naturally. But guys that are short/slender can read as way too young. It took till 23-24 till I started looking like an of-age adult, much to my frustration. Way to many stops by friendly police officers asking if I need back to my parent's house.

On the other hand, for bodies large enough to use adult human technology, in our society a roughly  12-14 aged male chassis would be for the majority have perhaps the very least sexual implications, with the possible exception of >85 female. So it might be a sensible choice for an asexual Ai who nevertheless wants a strictly humaniform chassis. Of course cultures vary- in5th century BC Athens for instsnce...

Poor innocent Gyrre…  I shan't say more for the sake of your sanity.
I unfortunately already know abot that particular paraphilia. I don't understand how the hell someone develops it, but I know of it.

My own hypothesis is that at a certain point, people just need to take a break from porn, otherwise it starts getting mixed with things it oughten't. No, I'm not lumping all paraphilias under that. Just the ones that fall under the DSM V's hallmarks for damaging paraphilias.
