I can see Darcy having tried to run away from the halfway house in the past, only to grudgingly return when her belly was empty and the nights grew cold.
[...]
This is the first time we see a nandroid run, I'm actually surprised
>captcha is sta22
I'm spooked
I have to admit, I'm confused by Emmy's reaction here. If she were human, it would be understandable; she's freaked out by her situation and panicking. Panic, though, is a biological reaction. Your adrenaline starts flowing and your "fight or flight" response kicks in. But robots don't have adrenaline, as far as we know.
You could simulate that behavior, but why would Sterling (or any other robot manufacturer) program robots to do so? Obviously Emmy has self-preservation instincts built in, but panic is not a helpful reaction in this circumstance, so why go that far?
it may not be panic as we know it, but from what we've seen so far sapient machines in general seems to have human-like minds, to the point they'll react similarly.
But even without "panic", she's in a strange situation, where she is under significant stress (mentally at least), her perception of the world is in shamble and the outmodes (that she was told she was superior to) were mocking her for having hope.
Is it really that weird that she wouldn't know what to do and want to get out?
If Emmy, say, saw Madeline in danger, I could see her going into full-blown emergency damn-your-self-preservation-you-have-a-child-to-save mode. But this is just self-preservation, and Emmy doesn't appear to be in any immediate danger. There should be no reason for a panic response.
>There should be no reason for a panic response.
Did we read the same comic
She have plenty of reasons to panic, and the outmodes' attitude is exactly the thing that would send someone over the edge.

The robots minds are clearly made similar if not identical to a human mind, even if there's no real physical mechanisms such as hormones.
We've seen them worry, get mad, get jealous, be sad ect ect.
When there's nothing superseeding their function (like needing to worry about Madeline for Emmy), I don't see why they would not panic when they're in a strange and potentially dangerous situation.
Emmy is clearly not thinking straight, either from her malfunction or from a normal discomfort from being basically thrown out and mocked for it

Robot goop is the only thing that makes sense for the ability to create sophisticated AI in this universe.

Could be a learned reaction, we know they learn like humans, having some sort of self-programming neural net, if they didn't then there wouldn't be a nandroid school just a quick upload of data.
She's a human-like robot with human-like reactions. I guess her humanoid robot brain decided that she needs to go back to her masters asap and the people who're telling her it's impossible are bad for her, so she ran away from them. To be fair, they've been acting sussy from the very beginning.
Nandroids have repeatedly demonstrated human behavior and emotions, even in situations where it wouldn't make sense to "program" them this way, and you're only now questioning it?
Nandroids are pretty much synthetic humans, at least when it comes to how they think or feel. Clearly something in their digital minds simulates the effects that hormones have on biological minds. Whether it makes sense from a "biological"/technical standpoint is basically irrelevant, the whole universe is not very realistic in the first place.
I hate that people take that piece of sci-fi literature and treat it like its an actual law of science.
Shit first thing we did with controlled drones was bomb people and what were developing antonymous drones for is to bomb people.
She's been doing moronic shit this whole comic, if you haven't noticed. Nandroids obviously don't work how you would expect a traditional robot to work.
She knows for a fact that she didn't get tossed aside like the rest of them, she knows her family does love her like one of their own
However this band of outmode misfits and an old woman who started talking to a painting of her dead Dad aren't listening and in fact the outmodes are mocking her with unwanted commentary and snickering
She's very clearly not gonna get the help she needs from these people. The outmodes don't care, the butlerbot sorta loathes her, and their "owner" is senile who lives in a rundown mansion
As what everyone else said, Nandroids operate like people and when you've been put in a situation you never thought you'd be in you're going to act differently
It does make sense from a human interaction perspective. If you see a panicked nandroid run past you, from their body language and expression you can tell there's a problem without either of you ever speaking because of the obvious sense of urgency she gives off. If she skipped past with a permanent smile on her face because that's all she can do, then anyone who sees her won't realize she's running towards or away from an emergency or danger unless they stop and interact. Robots being able to express the full range of human emotions, in the full range of ways humans express them, improves the abilities of robots and humans to communicate and understand each other.
I wonder if Dennis is just being mean here again or if it's an actual warning. And if so, how Dom intends to depict any ne'er-do-wells. We know we're not going to see anything outright scary or real violence. Emmy might just spook herself at cats' eyes in shadows or tin cans down a dark alley, or just run too low on power before even seeing any freaks. Maybe there are roving bands of Nibs around the rest of the city.
I guess the idea is that when you go through a hardship, you can either because used to it to the point that seeing others in that situation just seems like a "been there done that" thing, or you can become more empathetic with it. I feel like it would have been better if at least one of them was the latter.
>our last new comic before Dominic takes another break from Emmy.
This was months ago, you need to stop pretending this is his work, he abandoned the comic when she was sent to the scrap heap.
Alright. What is with Aunt Ginny persuading Emmy to stay in the house? It's like she does not care about what Emmy really thinks. It is as if she just wants to keep the new robot.
>It is as if she just wants to keep the new robot.
That's probably the case, but nobody, including Darcy and the other robots, seems to believe into Emmy's freak accident. They all think she's in denial after being abandoned by her owners. They're sort of right, nobody knows what was wrong with her her arm, and then she defied the sterling scientists and went awol, she would probably get dismantled.

Seems like every real sentence out of Dennis' mouth comes with a jab or joke, he can't be taken too seriously. So I agree it will show broken windows and dirty alleys, but nothing bad will happen
>Seems like every real sentence out of Dennis' mouth comes with a jab or joke, he can't be taken too seriously.
Maybe it's just because of where these robots are, but it's sad that even after all of Emmy's insistence, neither the robots nor the humans here will even humor her that she was separated from the Delaires by accident. It's telling how poorly robots are treated in Dupont and likely the rest of the country too, if not the world. None of them would even entertain the idea because robots are so disposable to the majority of humans that the chances of it actually being an accident or anyone even caring are nonexistent.
>I think these are throwaways
If Emmy returns to the house then yeah, but Dennis seems like he might be along for the ride if they do go full Homeward Bound. Garrison seems like a permanent fixture of the house though, I doubt we'll see him go anywhere else.
I wonder if it's different for nandroids since they typically serve a family and can get real close to their human companions, versus the other bots who probably were built for specific jobs and were owned by companies and only had human "friends".
I don't see how that contradict it.
Things happened between her saying this and her running away, mainly being laughed at for having faith in her family and meeting a crazy woman who talk to paintings.
>our last new comic before Dominic takes another break from Emmy.
This was months ago, you need to stop pretending this is his work, he abandoned the comic when she was sent to the scrap heap.
It's not really commissions until the truly strange things start getting drawn. Not in the comic, no, but just one-page art pics. Tails from Sonic. Transformations into throne-scene Akira, or Blueberry Girl. The powdered soap shower, like in Tank Girl. Emmy and Planetina walking naked along the beach. And yes, happy ones like frolicking with the MLPs in sunlit meadows.
You fell for bait. The author of the story is and always will be Dominic Cellini, he has not given it to anyone and you can follow him on Twatter or his Patreon to make sure,
That was just a few chapters, and all of them before the Birthday party incident. And it's only for inking, i.e. drawing clear line over the draft that Dom made anyway.
I was half expecting Emmy to only get a few feet out the front door before getting shocked by the bracelet thing Darcy gave her, like an invisible fence for dogs.
We still have this to look forward to picture.
Implies Emmy becomes a familiar resident of the neighborhood.
Shopkeepers are on a first name basis with her.
She (or Darcy) have money to legitimately buy stuff.
She's not trying to run away anymore. Next panel, she climbs onto rear of Darcy's bike.
True, Dom might change his mind. But all the other 'sneak previews' we've seen have panned out.
>But all the other 'sneak previews' we've seen have panned out
Not all, a bunch of early comics featuring the Delaires didn't make it into the official webcomic.
>it's a pleasure to have you
Nothing about this image suggests its not cqnon, just some people don't like robots or at the least have the patience for their cheeriness after being rained on
>Only 'early' image I can think of which didn't become canon was this one. Before he decided on the Delaires.
This strip is canon and is on Webtoon. She is just greeting a random guest at the Delaire household.
>Other examples?
There are several with Emmy and Madeline, pic related.
I guess it's Dom's writing style, but we've never actually seen any outright malicious characters in this comic: >Molly wasn't trying to get Emmy outmoded; she was just annoyed at her malfunctioning (possibly out of fear that she could do the same?) >Dr. Bennet was not out to hurt Emmy; he genuinely was trying to help her but gave up, thinking she was a lost cause. >The Sterling directors were just unfeeling. They're probably the closest to "evil" characters we've seen, but they're just products of the fricked-up world they've created. >The Jawa-droids in the dump were just doing their jobs and didn't realize Emmy was still operational. >Dennis is a jerk, but he seems to be more bark than bite.
I'm not sure if we're going to see any actually dangerous outmodes or robot-hating humans; it would be a major shift in tone for the story. Not ruling it out, though; this would be an appropriate time for it.
I'd say the Nabs (I think that's the name of the little red fricks) were pretty malicious by themselves, at least because I interpreted their reaction to Emmy being alive as anger before bailing out with what they could.
>Dr. Bennet was not out to hurt Emmy; he genuinely was trying to help her but gave up, thinking she was a lost cause.
He was hardly "trying", people figured there could be an issue with his update but he shot them down, because he didn't want to admit that he made a mistake and/or didn't want his mistake to come to light, so he was just biding time until they could say "well, there is nothing we can do, I guess we'll never know what went wrong, let's just dismantle her and give the family a new one".
He was trying to help her until it became inconvenient for him. That seems to be a running theme in this comic: robots are basically disposable people. That's why I said this was a fricked-up world the humans have created.
Suppose the plot is going for the "the thinking machines that we made are capable of thinking afterall what fools we were! No lets build a future with them filled with oil stains and rainbows" route.
>I'm not sure if we're going to see any actually dangerous outmodes or robot-hating humans; it would be a major shift in tone for the story.
I don't think malicious bots are needed to show the bad kinds of outmodes.

An outmode can be dangerous/scary without shifting the tone too harshly I think, something more like a thug out of a disney cartoon is clearly villainous but isn't quite the same as a robot Zodiac killer showing up.
>An outmode can be dangerous/scary without shifting the tone too harshly
You can do that without needing the outmode to act like a bad guy. Even just a malfunctioning bot could pose a big enough threat if Emmy crosses path with it.
>Even just a malfunctioning bot could pose a big enough threat if Emmy crosses path with it.
That's actually scarier than an "evil" bot, especially if it switches between acting nice and unhinged.
Outmodes appear to be only grudgingly tolerated in Emmy's world, and only when they appear to be doing something useful, such as scrap-collecting or street-dancing. Outmodes that won't--or can't--fit into the lowest rungs of "street people" get hauled away by the cops. Since Dupont seems to have its fair share of outmodes, you can imagine what the streets at night there must be like.

No I mean an explanation of how she's diverged from other nandroids in form and function, I like seeing the variation in how nandroids are presented so getting some background on the case for her and her more organic features would be interesting to read.
bro he's already gone very far from nandroids "in form and function" even before being general, she's a clockwork automaton imported from england to the redneck south before the civil war, she probably get breasts and a working vegana through magic or some shit
I'll explain it within her story in due time. Already have a solid idea about the origin of her new body, but I'm currently working on another two-part writing project with another nan. Should have part 1 up in (hopefully) a week

Here's what I'm predicting, Emmy is gonna run around the shitty city at night and because she's so sheltered she'll get scared shitless because of all the poverty and criminality and run back home or Dracy will find as she is getting scared.
I can totally see this, though I'd prefer something a bit more interesting, perhaps she gets captured by hobos or the less-nicer outmodes and Darcy comes to rescue her.
She'll probably just bump into some outmodes, like the breakdance bot, some grumpy bot going "im walken 'ere!" or some just greeting her politely and in her panic make a scene, then Darcy an co. gets her out of there.

I doubt domm wants to present the poor/outmoded in an overly negative light. If the plebs get presented as coarse buttholes it would frick with the social commentary an American like Domm would probably like to present. It'd be more likely for a random yuppie to be hanging around the slum to harass Emmy and other outmodes than Domm considering to show the impoverished as pricks

I don't love nandroids because of cow breasts. I love nandroids because of their submissive traits. I like the idea of a robot maid being perfect companion to humans. I want a submissive loving robowaifu that would give me unconditional love, affection and loyalty to me and loves me for who I am. Also nandroids are sexy, I'm aroused by them.
It's been around for a long time, all the way back to the 70s apparently. Pretty much them shoveling the last of their breakfast into their mouth while running to school, because they lost track of time.
Adorable, thanks for this. Also I really should get around to playing Portal 2, but I've got to convince my friend to pick it up with me since it's supposed to be better co-op from what I hear
You should. Unironically the best game ever made.
The main story is singleplayer though, you absolutely don't need to wait on a friend to experience it.
Good to know, now that I think of it though I'm not sure I ever finished Portal 1, I got pretty far but I haven't played since the Orange Box was only a couple years old. Both are still on my shelf, waiting for the day I dust 'em off again.
You can blast through Portal 1 in under 5 hours, and that's for a first time playthrough.

RIP narrator-anon, for a short little window there it looked like we might start getting some, he even recorded some samples. Shame, but it probably would've been a large project since he wanted to find a woman to read female lines and incorporate some background music. Add in some occasional sound effects and you're basically producing a fandroid radio show like the BBC adaptation of Hitchhiker's Guide. Speaking of, I'd shamelessly lift the Eagles' song they used as Nandroids in Space's theme, it just fits to my ears https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wZdZKolMIl0

I like the assistant nandroid. I want to see robots in more exotic science jobs, like doctors or doing dangerous field work (volcanologist). Those would be the perfect places for them.
I recently found an interview that Dominic did, it's a neat listen. He talks about art in general and some of his other works, but he does go into Emmy territory a fair bit. He says multiple times that he isn't too interested in the lore aspect of things, it's all there just to push his main story forward.
So there's a good chance many, many questions will go unanswered.
>He says multiple times that he isn't too interested in the lore aspect of things >So there's a good chance many, many questions will go unanswered
Not to worry. That's what the fandom is for!
It would help if we knew more about the other models in this universe. If we knew, for example, what exactly Ula used to be, or how she looked before her face damage, we'd probably see some OC robots of the same model by now.
>how she looked before her face damage
I've been wondering about that too. Her bob looks slightly asymmetrical, I wonder, has it always looked this way, or did she get a haircut or changed her wig so that her hair covers the damaged size of her face?

Each thread has ended the exact same way for the better part of a year. doesn't anyone get tired of this? On either side? The people who engage in these threads or the literal schizoids that post here? Why the hell does anyone even come here?
Yes, it is very tiresome, but there was lots of good back and forth in the beginning. Gotta take it where we can find it

I don't really have any other ideas at hand... I dunno, Polly doing some silly dance?
Literally, he only comes here to either post about Sally or shit on Sally to generate engagement and sympathy for himself. Don't engage with any of it.
Due to being small she can’t do as many tasks like a normal Nandroid, so she can get grumpy, worried or shy when she has to do something she typically can’t, sometimes twirling that curly bit of her hair to cope. Sometimes she’ll get adorably shy and or grumpy when someone helps her out in a task.
Not enough for you? We’ll just wait and see I’m still tweaking and experimenting with her character.
I’m thinking her and her kind were designed to be cheaper and easier to make than standard Nandroids…Yet they’re makers were likely speeds and forgot the flaws being shorter would have.
All Nandroids Are Wonderful. 3MB size limit on webms makes it so you can't see Franny's cute smile, so better quality is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CzuEFpcYkD4
Fitting how Molly starts as if she's hating this and then mellows out.
And Franny is an introvert is cute.
That's amazing, I love these. Keep them coming!
I think this means I have to bite the bullet and buy a new GPU so I can render in good quality without it taking days and days. I spent all the time making Franny CUTE and it's so hard to see....
They do cast shadows, but the shadow object would have to be squashed between their eyeball and a flat surface for the shadow to be cast and you to see it. Can up the value, too, and give them spotlight eyes probably
Emmy-Pilled here with the weekly update, more wooden discs produced (nearly at 70%), a few setbacks with printing out a right template for the grinding (it will be transferred and cut out from some thin plywood). Been busy most of the week with more boxing training, but next week should see enough time to finally move up to scaling and gluing the discs. Then moving onto making the kneejoints and foot-tips.
Kek, good job, pilled one.
Can I request a new close look at the hands?
I'm obsessed with how well made they are.
here you go (still shortening the rods at the shoulder-part because I felt they were too long, so doing some extra welding) enjoy my best attempt at making them perform the <3 hand symbol
Do the thumbs have a ball joint above the hinge one connecting it to the hand? If not, adding one would help create more realistic movement options and allow for better articulation. That might be more than you want to deal with now though. Maybe consider adding it after you've addressed other aspects of the project.
the fingers only move vertically, not horizontally. I had been thinking of taking apart and remaking the hands. But it would be a gigantic hassle to do so, in any case that is the reason all parts on the doll are made to be assembled/disassembled at any point for repairs or upgrades
I think you should ignore it for now and keep on with the rest of the build. Once the build is finished, maybe consider adding a ball joint at the thumbs. Its the digit where the lack thereof is most prominent. But if you get side tracked with endless upgrades of already finished pieces, you won't finish the whole thing. So for now, ignore it. Those are some damn good hands as is.

I totally get that, and yea the hands are perfect. From the moment I spotted them on amazon I knew they would fit like a glove
not anything really, other than future filler material if it´s needed. Same with the entire bucket of sawdust I´ve gathered so far from the amount of drilling done
funnily enough that already is on my to-do list, got an entire storage room of exotic woods I´ve collected from my previous job. From mahogany to beech, ash and hickory
"Patience"
Shut the frick up you annoying mother fricking smug Black folk why are you like this why would you say not to post something that has zero discussion value for a thread during the hiatus do you expect it to carry a thread on its own somehow you moronic skullfricked troony "writer"

>Keep on being gay, anon. You've been doing a spectacular job whining like a b***h these past few months!
I don't agree with how anons like him present their point, but I do kind of agree with that point.
You can have whatever tastes, preferences and fetishes you like, but when you start forcing something onto a community, you are just naturally going to invite backlash and gatekeeping.
Like seriously, have you guys even SEEN the actual source material? You, know, Emmy the Robot? The webcomic? Have you seen how its characters are depicted? Surely you have. So why are you even in this fandom if you are into big breasts?
I mean, if you liked vegetarian dishes, you would go to a vegetarian restaurant, not to a steak restaurant, right?
Not trying to stir up shit here, just genuinely trying to understand.
>You can have whatever tastes, preferences and fetishes you like, but when you start forcing something onto a community,
Nobody's forcing anything on anyone, it's just random fricks blowing things out of proportions to stir shit, like anything else
>So why are you even in this fandom if you are into big breasts?
I didn't know liking big breasts meant you have to hate flat characters, damn.
>I didn't know liking big breasts meant you have to hate flat characters, damn.
I've never seen a boob man who didn't hate on smaller chests, nice try nantales
Forcing is perhaps too strong a word, but when you see the same particular artists drawing it in large quantities and nothing else, often in tandem with the same particular requesters commissioning it regularly, it can get really annoying. Especially if they take characters you like and turn them into something they are not (exhibit A:
I thought it was the other way around: that he commissioned Jam to draw the scenes
[...]
I unironically miss SLA's smut. Wonder if he's even still writing the next chapter
[...]
It would be good to see them again
I somewhat agree with your point but you put it in the gayest way possible
Why do you care if people you don't care about do things you don't like
It's not like they're shoving it in your face forcing you to look
>So why are you even in this fandom if you are into big breasts? >into big breasts
Anon, it's called "being straight"
Also, regardless of fandom, not every piece of fan content is going to stay completely on model, especially for female characters. Online artists, horny or not, have always liked to experiment with pre-existing character design. If you want to be such a prude about it, then I would just stick to the comic itself and/or only follow artists like Bal & I_G
I'm not lem, but I think I got the inspiration for it. I'll throw in Noelle, Aria, General Dixie, Goth Lulu, and any other nan with huge jugs just to spite the schizo(s) in the thread
>Why the hell does anyone even come here?
Because it's fun and interesting. I'm here for the good parts of these threads, the balance always shifts but for me they win over the cringe and shit parts in the end.
I do wish people didn't fall for bait so easily, like holy shit how naive some people here are?
this makes me horribly sad. I get they loosely shared a similar universe but I really liked the seeing both of them write from different facets of storytelling. If you carefully read SLA's works, he would stitch in a lot of the fanart at the time into the narrative.
i think we're still stuck on Namek with SLA's lulu (waiting to do the date and the movie with anon and lulu). I'd love to see some agressvive world building and cameos from other nans. We have a more vibrant fandroid scene now that there's a lot of great inserts that could happen
I mean, if you really want this become real, if you are young, go to university and become a electronics/computer engineer. Also studying Computer Science and focusing in Machine Learning / AI could be another route.
Drawing pictures of Emmy won't make her real, anons. Art is useless just like religion.
>Also studying Computer Science and focusing in Machine Learning / AI could be another route
I'm skeptical of this, you can make *an* AI, but it won't be a human-like AI which is want we want here. We're still not really sure how our own minds really work, so how are going to make facsimiles of them in a computer? Fully figuring out how a human brain works is probably what you want to focus on first, so that we can map it and hopefully recreate digitally.
lol I´m literally creating a real Emmy, the frick you on about?
b***h technically a fully functioning nandroid is still "lifeless". its not birthed from a pussy with blood coursing through its veins lol, what kinda point is that?
>I'm skeptical of this
well, trying to made a full human like android with a human level of intelligence is not going to happen in the next 50 years at least. Better start working now, maybe your grandkids could marry one and one could take care of you in your old age.
>you can make *an* AI, but it won't be a human-like AI
Still more human than any woman ever. Robowaifus can be way more humane than roasties and can have human traits such as love, affection, sympathy, loyalty, personality which women lack all of these things. Which is why I wanted waifubot so much.
>Alas, you are creating but a lifeless body.
Sounds like women pretty much. They'ree lifeless.
>Art is useless
Imagine being this much of a midwit. Do you have any idea how important art really is for us humanity and how it has a great impact on it?
You may recall 2 greentexts about Handy, a Nandroid who replaced Stress Test Anon at his job, from about a month ago. The premise originated almost as a joke, but I think has since developed into something solid-ish. I had a few more ideas, and I've finally began putting them together, so here is Part 2 out of what will probably be 3 or 4.
>It's been several months since you graduated and got your bizarre assignment at the newly reorganized General Stress-Testing department >You've lost count of how many of your fellow robots you've broken and destroyed in the name of helping the company make newer models better and stronger >Your supervisors were right, the "careless update" really helped you get used to what you do >You almost didn't feel bad about it >Almost >Still, you were doing what you were tasked with, and you were doing it well, much to the approval of your human supervisors >To their credit, they treated you with respect, almost as if you were a human employee >They didn't mind you taking up some hobbies like drawing in your free time, and you were even allowed a small salary of sorts to spend on art supplies >All in all, although this wasn't the life you wished for, it wasn't that bad >Aside from an occasional sarcastic remark from Debbie, or a rare pang of guilt or disgust that the "careless update" didn't completely suppress, everything has been going well >Until today
If I don't make it to the end, look up Handy the Nandroid on the spreadsheet, Prologue and Part 1 are there, and this will be too.
>On the way to your office you check your schedule for the day as usual, and discover that today your first victim is a yet another fellow Nandroid >With a sigh, you open the door and enter the room >And freeze at the sight of a very familiar face looking at you >"Handy!" the Nandroid sitting on the stool in the center of the room lights up >"P-penny?" you stare at her in disbelief as she leaps from her seat to hug you >Penny was your classmate, one of the few that you were friends with >On your graduation day, she and another friend got assigned to families living on the same steet in a nice posh neighborhood >So why is she back at Sterling, and lined up for stress-testing of all things?
(2/5?)
>"What are you doing here?" you ask her after she finally breaks off the embrace >"I... I don't know. Much of my memory since graduation is missing after they ran cognitive tests on me" >She seems ashamed of her situation, and her cheek circles begin glowing accordingly >"But I must have done something very wrong, because apparently I was brought here by Outmode Requisitions after my family shut me down" she continues, avoiding your gaze. "I hope I didn't hurt anyone!" >"You could never hurt anyone, Penny" you assure her, putting a hand on her shoulder in an attempt to comfort her. "You don't rememebr anything?" >"Just vague impressions... The last thing I remember clearly is Dr Simmons finishing a diagnostic on me, saying I would be perfect for something, and sending me here. What is this place anyway?" >"Oh, this is..." You freeze again, unable to answer >You don't have the heart to tell her where she is, or what is expected to happen to her here >You picture yourself proceeding with the stress-testing and inflicting suffering on your friend, and it repulses you >Your own cheeks now light up in guilt and disgust, your training and the software update helpless to supress them >"Excuse me, I'll be back in a few minutes" you blurt out as you storm out of the room >For the first time ever, you can't go through with a task given to you >You need to talk to your supervisor
(3/5?)
* * *
>A minute later you are standing in front of Dr Green in his office >"Sir, that Nandroid that I have scheduled for testing today..." >"Is there a problem with her?" Dr Green looks up from the paperwork on his table >"I'm sorry, sir. I can't do it. She was in my graduating class, and we were close. I know we are "just robots", but she was my friend and I can't bring myself to hurt her, even with the software updates that you gave me" >"I see" your supervisor responds after a heavy sigh. "I'm sorry for putting you through this. However, your friend was taken in by the Requisitions on her owners' request. So she is not going back to service in any case" >You think back to how happy Penny looked during graduation, imagining the life she was going to have looking after her two young charges >The life that seems to have been unjustly cut short after only a few months >"Can she at least be given a proper retirement instead of... this?" you plead >"I'm afraid this is out of my hands. And using her for testing saves us wasting a brand new model fresh from the factory... God, that sounds terrible when I put it like that, I'm sorry" Dr Green sighs again. "Look, I can take her off your schedule, but I'll have to give her to Debbie instead"
(4/5?)
>This is the last thing that you wanted to hear >Debbie was another one of your classmates, and if you could speak honestly, she was your least favorite one >Her personality was as close to what could be described as "insuffarable" as it could possibly get within the confines of standard Nandroid programming >She looked delighted every time you or any of your classmates failed an excercise during education >More worryingly, she also looked delighted when she, like you, was assigned to Stress-Testing >And when during training you asked her how did she take the "careless update", she simply said that she didn't even need one >The image of Debbie torturing Penny and *enjoying* it appears in your mind, making your non-existant stomach churn >A sense of anger overwhelming you, you feel determined to not let it happen >"On second thought, sir, I'd rather test her myself" you declare >"Are you sure?" Dr Green raises an eyebrow. "You weren't up to it just a minute ago" >"Honestly, sir, I'd rather do it myself than let Debbie anywhere near her" >Your supervisor scoffs. "Alright then. Is there anything else?" >"No, sir" >"Then I'll see you later. Good luck!" >You do a little curtsy and leave the room, and as you head back to your workspace, you mentally prepare yourself to make the most difficult decision of your life
(5/5)
Next part is halfway done but will have to wait until next week, I guess.
Yeah, I'm not a good writer by any means, but I had fun doing it.
See the thing with TLO would be he'd make new art to piss off shitters for attention. But can you stop posting this Black person propaganda, and go back to actually making something good?
Stress testing is an objectively moronic practice no matter the spin you put on it
It makes no logical sense, and it's only another of those contrieved plots to make muh sad feels
You write nicely, but the subject is just stupid no matter how you look at it.
You know, I can't even disagree really, I'm not a big fan of how "edgy" stress testing is presented in STA's story. But it was a part of the original premise upon which the whole thing is based, so I'm kind of stuck running with it now.
If I don't make it to the end, look up Handy the Nandroid on the spreadsheet, Prologue and Part 1 are there, and this will be too.

Stress testing irl is a completely different practice than whatever is portrayed in this Fandom
You don't take working appliances from their owners to thoroughly demolish them with violence, you put the product through an intense work cycle and try to find how it might break.
Just bashing it into broken bits with a hammer is not "stress testing"

I know we are "just robots", but she was my friend and I can't bring myself to hurt her, even with the software updates that you gave me" >"I see" your supervisor responds after a heavy sigh. "I'm sorry for putting you through this. However, your friend was taken in by the Requisitions on her owners' request. So she is not going back to service in any case" >You think back to how happy Penny looked during graduation, imagining the life she was going to have looking after her two young charges >The life that seems to have been unjustly cut short after only a few months >"Can she at least be given a proper retirement instead of... this?" you plead >"I'm afraid this is out of my hands. And using her for testing saves us wasting a brand new model fresh from the factory... God, that sounds terrible when I put it like that, I'm sorry" Dr Green sighs again. "Look, I can take her off your schedule, but I'll have to give her to Debbie instead"

If I don't make it to the end, look up Handy the Nandroid on the spreadsheet, Prologue and Part 1 are there, and this will be too.
>On the way to your office you check your schedule for the day as usual, and discover that today your first victim is a yet another fellow Nandroid >With a sigh, you open the door and enter the room >And freeze at the sight of a very familiar face looking at you >"Handy!" the Nandroid sitting on the stool in the center of the room lights up >"P-penny?" you stare at her in disbelief as she leaps from her seat to hug you >Penny was your classmate, one of the few that you were friends with >On your graduation day, she and another friend got assigned to families living on the same steet in a nice posh neighborhood >So why is she back at Sterling, and lined up for stress-testing of all things?
(2/5?)
You may recall 2 greentexts about Handy, a Nandroid who replaced Stress Test Anon at his job, from about a month ago. The premise originated almost as a joke, but I think has since developed into something solid-ish. I had a few more ideas, and I've finally began putting them together, so here is Part 2 out of what will probably be 3 or 4.
>It's been several months since you graduated and got your bizarre assignment at the newly reorganized General Stress-Testing department >You've lost count of how many of your fellow robots you've broken and destroyed in the name of helping the company make newer models better and stronger >Your supervisors were right, the "careless update" really helped you get used to what you do >You almost didn't feel bad about it >Almost >Still, you were doing what you were tasked with, and you were doing it well, much to the approval of your human supervisors >To their credit, they treated you with respect, almost as if you were a human employee >They didn't mind you taking up some hobbies like drawing in your free time, and you were even allowed a small salary of sorts to spend on art supplies >All in all, although this wasn't the life you wished for, it wasn't that bad >Aside from an occasional sarcastic remark from Debbie, or a rare pang of guilt or disgust that the "careless update" didn't completely suppress, everything has been going well >Until today
This thread has already last longer and had more actual discussion, and had a lot of cool OC too. What happens post-bump limit is not really important.
And we're left on another cliffhanger, at least until Dom returns with more. As always please, please ignore and report blatant trolling, spamming and shitposting.
Darcy looks pissed, and kinda hurt. Did she think she and Emmy were becoming friends?
She's just pissed that her haul got away.
Maybe she's pissed because of this line, because the same goes for her or sth.
I can see Darcy having tried to run away from the halfway house in the past, only to grudgingly return when her belly was empty and the nights grew cold.
She got a good haul from the dumps. To see it run away would suck a lot. Emmy has a friendship bracelet though. I am sure she will not get far.
A lot of good faces in today's comic.
More rape imagery from Dom
I have to admit, I'm confused by Emmy's reaction here. If she were human, it would be understandable; she's freaked out by her situation and panicking. Panic, though, is a biological reaction. Your adrenaline starts flowing and your "fight or flight" response kicks in. But robots don't have adrenaline, as far as we know.
You could simulate that behavior, but why would Sterling (or any other robot manufacturer) program robots to do so? Obviously Emmy has self-preservation instincts built in, but panic is not a helpful reaction in this circumstance, so why go that far?
I mean battle droids act the exact same way, she’s probably being overclocked or some shit.
If Emmy, say, saw Madeline in danger, I could see her going into full-blown emergency damn-your-self-preservation-you-have-a-child-to-save mode. But this is just self-preservation, and Emmy doesn't appear to be in any immediate danger. There should be no reason for a panic response.
>There should be no reason for a panic response.
Did we read the same comic
She have plenty of reasons to panic, and the outmodes' attitude is exactly the thing that would send someone over the edge.
>exactly the thing that would send someone over the edge.
Would send a human over the edge.
I'd think a robot would not behave that way.
The robots minds are clearly made similar if not identical to a human mind, even if there's no real physical mechanisms such as hormones.
We've seen them worry, get mad, get jealous, be sad ect ect.
When there's nothing superseeding their function (like needing to worry about Madeline for Emmy), I don't see why they would not panic when they're in a strange and potentially dangerous situation.
Emmy is clearly not thinking straight, either from her malfunction or from a normal discomfort from being basically thrown out and mocked for it
They are not purely electronic in the brains, they have a kind of goo based processor. So they are. Ore organic than a binary system could create.
>, they have a kind of goo based processor.
at no point was this said, we just know there's a pseudo brain and robot goop that is "Important?"
It could just be coolant for all we know
Robot goop is the only thing that makes sense for the ability to create sophisticated AI in this universe.
do you smoke crack
It's spare brain from humans
>But robots don't have adrenaline, as far as we know.
Robot goo, son.
it may not be panic as we know it, but from what we've seen so far sapient machines in general seems to have human-like minds, to the point they'll react similarly.
But even without "panic", she's in a strange situation, where she is under significant stress (mentally at least), her perception of the world is in shamble and the outmodes (that she was told she was superior to) were mocking her for having hope.
Is it really that weird that she wouldn't know what to do and want to get out?
robots should not have emotional reactions let alone emotions, so yes, this is "that weird"
Then you are reading the wrong comic.
>this image
>taken from an image of grossly fat nandroids
frick I didn't remember them looking this obese
Now who commissioned it, nantales dixieanon or wendyanon
Could be a learned reaction, we know they learn like humans, having some sort of self-programming neural net, if they didn't then there wouldn't be a nandroid school just a quick upload of data.
She's a human-like robot with human-like reactions. I guess her humanoid robot brain decided that she needs to go back to her masters asap and the people who're telling her it's impossible are bad for her, so she ran away from them. To be fair, they've been acting sussy from the very beginning.
Nandroids have repeatedly demonstrated human behavior and emotions, even in situations where it wouldn't make sense to "program" them this way, and you're only now questioning it?
Nandroids are pretty much synthetic humans, at least when it comes to how they think or feel. Clearly something in their digital minds simulates the effects that hormones have on biological minds. Whether it makes sense from a "biological"/technical standpoint is basically irrelevant, the whole universe is not very realistic in the first place.
They have brain goo, not a pure bninary computer
dude, it is a webcomic made by an italo-american cartoonist, it's not fricking Asimov.
don't you start with asimov I'm tired of seeing his three laws ham-fisted into anything robot-related
I mean, even Asimov is fiction. Do not hurt you head thinking too much about it. Enjoy the ride.
I hate that people take that piece of sci-fi literature and treat it like its an actual law of science.
Shit first thing we did with controlled drones was bomb people and what were developing antonymous drones for is to bomb people.
She's been doing moronic shit this whole comic, if you haven't noticed. Nandroids obviously don't work how you would expect a traditional robot to work.
She knows for a fact that she didn't get tossed aside like the rest of them, she knows her family does love her like one of their own
However this band of outmode misfits and an old woman who started talking to a painting of her dead Dad aren't listening and in fact the outmodes are mocking her with unwanted commentary and snickering
She's very clearly not gonna get the help she needs from these people. The outmodes don't care, the butlerbot sorta loathes her, and their "owner" is senile who lives in a rundown mansion
As what everyone else said, Nandroids operate like people and when you've been put in a situation you never thought you'd be in you're going to act differently
It does make sense from a human interaction perspective. If you see a panicked nandroid run past you, from their body language and expression you can tell there's a problem without either of you ever speaking because of the obvious sense of urgency she gives off. If she skipped past with a permanent smile on her face because that's all she can do, then anyone who sees her won't realize she's running towards or away from an emergency or danger unless they stop and interact. Robots being able to express the full range of human emotions, in the full range of ways humans express them, improves the abilities of robots and humans to communicate and understand each other.
This is clearly a "robots are people too" setting so I think you're trying to split a hair.
Emmy's battery pack going to get damaged now, won't it?
I wonder if Dennis is just being mean here again or if it's an actual warning. And if so, how Dom intends to depict any ne'er-do-wells. We know we're not going to see anything outright scary or real violence. Emmy might just spook herself at cats' eyes in shadows or tin cans down a dark alley, or just run too low on power before even seeing any freaks. Maybe there are roving bands of Nibs around the rest of the city.
She's gonna run into outmodes who have gone Hollow.
>Seeing the red flag situation.
She may actually be brighter than I wanted to give her credit for.
Pretty jerky of them to laugh.
Yeah these frankensteins are dicks.
I guess the idea is that when you go through a hardship, you can either because used to it to the point that seeing others in that situation just seems like a "been there done that" thing, or you can become more empathetic with it. I feel like it would have been better if at least one of them was the latter.

Perfect
Now that's a quality reaction panel
I feel like ever since Emmy was sent to Sterling the amount of cool reaction image shots in the comic increased exponentially.
This is the first time we see a nandroid run, I'm actually surprised
>captcha is sta22
I'm spooked
The year of his death. It is foretold.
Somebody should make a vector of that running Emmy, I like seeing nandroids do action stuff.
Alright. What is with Aunt Ginny persuading Emmy to stay in the house? It's like she does not care about what Emmy really thinks. It is as if she just wants to keep the new robot.
>It is as if she just wants to keep the new robot.
That's probably the case, but nobody, including Darcy and the other robots, seems to believe into Emmy's freak accident. They all think she's in denial after being abandoned by her owners. They're sort of right, nobody knows what was wrong with her her arm, and then she defied the sterling scientists and went awol, she would probably get dismantled.
requesting the silent panel and the running panel together for a reaction image
Of course anon
thank you
You are a great person and deserve all good things
A variation.
Nice
So what do you guys think? Does it turn out the Delaires are actually worried and demanding Sterling returns Emmy to them?
They are.

>Madeline and new nandroid become deus ex machina saving Emmy and Darcy from something near the end
I hope Dominic does some crazy fun stuff with the story like this
>misunderstands
lazy writing
I think these are throwaways and we won't get any updates again until the end when Emmy reunites with them and it's just like, 'Emmy, you're home!' THE END
Seems like every real sentence out of Dennis' mouth comes with a jab or joke, he can't be taken too seriously. So I agree it will show broken windows and dirty alleys, but nothing bad will happen
>Seems like every real sentence out of Dennis' mouth comes with a jab or joke, he can't be taken too seriously.
Maybe it's just because of where these robots are, but it's sad that even after all of Emmy's insistence, neither the robots nor the humans here will even humor her that she was separated from the Delaires by accident. It's telling how poorly robots are treated in Dupont and likely the rest of the country too, if not the world. None of them would even entertain the idea because robots are so disposable to the majority of humans that the chances of it actually being an accident or anyone even caring are nonexistent.
>I think these are throwaways
If Emmy returns to the house then yeah, but Dennis seems like he might be along for the ride if they do go full Homeward Bound. Garrison seems like a permanent fixture of the house though, I doubt we'll see him go anywhere else.
I wonder if it's different for nandroids since they typically serve a family and can get real close to their human companions, versus the other bots who probably were built for specific jobs and were owned by companies and only had human "friends".
Either way it brings me down.
That's something I haven't considered;
Nandroids are caretaker, so of course their relation with humans is different than for other functions.
Can't expect the sport bot to have the same emotional attachement as one raising kids
And yet just earlier that day she didn't want to return home because her certification has been revoked. Curious.
I don't see how that contradict it.
Things happened between her saying this and her running away, mainly being laughed at for having faith in her family and meeting a crazy woman who talk to paintings.
I think she just wants to go back to her family but not before getting her certificate back first.
>our last new comic before Dominic takes another break from Emmy.
This was months ago, you need to stop pretending this is his work, he abandoned the comic when she was sent to the scrap heap.
Yeah nantales took over the comic and is ruining it to torment us
Nantales have no artistic talent I hope all those commisions ruined him
hes a neet with pocket change there is no "ruining him"
It's not really commissions until the truly strange things start getting drawn. Not in the comic, no, but just one-page art pics. Tails from Sonic. Transformations into throne-scene Akira, or Blueberry Girl. The powdered soap shower, like in Tank Girl. Emmy and Planetina walking naked along the beach. And yes, happy ones like frolicking with the MLPs in sunlit meadows.
Anyone care to explain? Did the creator actually toss the comic to someone else or are y'all fricking with me? If the former who the hell are they?
>y'all fricking with me
This.
You fell for bait. The author of the story is and always will be Dominic Cellini, he has not given it to anyone and you can follow him on Twatter or his Patreon to make sure,
>The author of the story is and always will be Dominic Cellini
except he gets helio clark to "help" at the exact time the comic art quality drops
That was just a few chapters, and all of them before the Birthday party incident. And it's only for inking, i.e. drawing clear line over the draft that Dom made anyway.
Can you morons not reply to blatant bait until after at least a few hundred posts?
I was half expecting Emmy to only get a few feet out the front door before getting shocked by the bracelet thing Darcy gave her, like an invisible fence for dogs.
Emmy would break in a slave collar situation
Emmy was her slave name
Could still happen.
looks like a "Well, we'll see about THAT!" face.
We still have this to look forward to picture.
Implies Emmy becomes a familiar resident of the neighborhood.
Shopkeepers are on a first name basis with her.
She (or Darcy) have money to legitimately buy stuff.
She's not trying to run away anymore. Next panel, she climbs onto rear of Darcy's bike.
True, Dom might change his mind. But all the other 'sneak previews' we've seen have panned out.
>But all the other 'sneak previews' we've seen have panned out
Not all, a bunch of early comics featuring the Delaires didn't make it into the official webcomic.
Only 'early' image I can think of which didn't become canon was this one.
Before he decided on the Delaires.
Other examples?
>it's a pleasure to have you
Nothing about this image suggests its not cqnon, just some people don't like robots or at the least have the patience for their cheeriness after being rained on
>Only 'early' image I can think of which didn't become canon was this one. Before he decided on the Delaires.
This strip is canon and is on Webtoon. She is just greeting a random guest at the Delaire household.
>Other examples?
There are several with Emmy and Madeline, pic related.
What's his problem?
Lately, I'm starting to find him really unlikable.
Because he's stealing all your waifus

Damn... maybe that was dom's intention?
Wh-what's this about freaks coming out at night?
Emmy is going to be raped. Is that what you wanted to hear?
Well you see the freaks appear around nighttime
robosexuals are nocturnal and prowl the streets in search of vulnerable machines
So far we've seen friendly outmodes.
Now we will see unfriendly outmodes.
I guess it's Dom's writing style, but we've never actually seen any outright malicious characters in this comic:
>Molly wasn't trying to get Emmy outmoded; she was just annoyed at her malfunctioning (possibly out of fear that she could do the same?)
>Dr. Bennet was not out to hurt Emmy; he genuinely was trying to help her but gave up, thinking she was a lost cause.
>The Sterling directors were just unfeeling. They're probably the closest to "evil" characters we've seen, but they're just products of the fricked-up world they've created.
>The Jawa-droids in the dump were just doing their jobs and didn't realize Emmy was still operational.
>Dennis is a jerk, but he seems to be more bark than bite.
I'm not sure if we're going to see any actually dangerous outmodes or robot-hating humans; it would be a major shift in tone for the story. Not ruling it out, though; this would be an appropriate time for it.
I'd say the Nabs (I think that's the name of the little red fricks) were pretty malicious by themselves, at least because I interpreted their reaction to Emmy being alive as anger before bailing out with what they could.
>Dr. Bennet was not out to hurt Emmy; he genuinely was trying to help her but gave up, thinking she was a lost cause.
He was hardly "trying", people figured there could be an issue with his update but he shot them down, because he didn't want to admit that he made a mistake and/or didn't want his mistake to come to light, so he was just biding time until they could say "well, there is nothing we can do, I guess we'll never know what went wrong, let's just dismantle her and give the family a new one".
He was trying to help her until it became inconvenient for him. That seems to be a running theme in this comic: robots are basically disposable people. That's why I said this was a fricked-up world the humans have created.
Suppose the plot is going for the "the thinking machines that we made are capable of thinking afterall what fools we were! No lets build a future with them filled with oil stains and rainbows" route.
>I'm not sure if we're going to see any actually dangerous outmodes or robot-hating humans; it would be a major shift in tone for the story.
I don't think malicious bots are needed to show the bad kinds of outmodes.
>An outmode can be dangerous/scary without shifting the tone too harshly
You can do that without needing the outmode to act like a bad guy. Even just a malfunctioning bot could pose a big enough threat if Emmy crosses path with it.
>Even just a malfunctioning bot could pose a big enough threat if Emmy crosses path with it.
That's actually scarier than an "evil" bot, especially if it switches between acting nice and unhinged.
wasn't trying to get Emmy outmoded; she was just annoyed at her malfunctioning (possibly out of fear that she could do the same?)
What a refreshing, patrician take
Only a true nandroid enthusiast would get a dinosaur one and show her off around town
Outmodes appear to be only grudgingly tolerated in Emmy's world, and only when they appear to be doing something useful, such as scrap-collecting or street-dancing. Outmodes that won't--or can't--fit into the lowest rungs of "street people" get hauled away by the cops. Since Dupont seems to have its fair share of outmodes, you can imagine what the streets at night there must be like.
It's kind of a miracle that Emmy was found by Darcy's gang and not by some less nicer if not outright actually malicious gang of outmodes.
I wonder how legal is that thing the granny is doing. Taking old robots and giving them a "home" it looks like it's against the rules.
What are the laws against taking home garbage?
As long as it gets the outmodes off the streets, I doubt if anyone cares. If anything, Aunt Ginny's neighbors probably think she's doing them a favor.

An outmode can be dangerous/scary without shifting the tone too harshly I think, something more like a thug out of a disney cartoon is clearly villainous but isn't quite the same as a robot Zodiac killer showing up.

Nice, is this drawing based (yes it is based) on something?
Not sure what Beanbag's original reference was, if there was one. Whatever the case though I really like it and am thankful for the fresh art.
It was the best day of the week.
Well. Looks like I have to start reading the story again. It has been a long time since I last read it.
Might be a good idea, there's a returning character who's been absent in the background for a couple chapters.
I have forgotten most of the stories beyond the first three. So yeah. it is a good idea.
I am a slow reader even with books because my mind wanders too often. The good thing with books though is that you can put a bookmark to mark the pages you have read already. With long continous stories, I don't really have that so I end up reading the entire thing from the start again.

No I mean an explanation of how she's diverged from other nandroids in form and function, I like seeing the variation in how nandroids are presented so getting some background on the case for her and her more organic features would be interesting to read.
bro he's already gone very far from nandroids "in form and function" even before being general, she's a clockwork automaton imported from england to the redneck south before the civil war, she probably get breasts and a working vegana through magic or some shit
very far is a gross understatement
I'll explain it within her story in due time. Already have a solid idea about the origin of her new body, but I'm currently working on another two-part writing project with another nan. Should have part 1 up in (hopefully) a week
She's gonna end up being an alien isn't she
Worse.
A bimbo.
Dixie is basically the fandoms sonichu at this point
>Go Dixie, and protect slavery to the extreme!
>I will Anon!
Like Sally's any better you fricking troony cuck
You should have a nice day and get done with it
Ula looks best when she smiles.
so why include dixie? I'm thinking it was dixieanon
Here's what I'm predicting, Emmy is gonna run around the shitty city at night and because she's so sheltered she'll get scared shitless because of all the poverty and criminality and run back home or Dracy will find as she is getting scared.
I can totally see this, though I'd prefer something a bit more interesting, perhaps she gets captured by hobos or the less-nicer outmodes and Darcy comes to rescue her.
She'll probably just bump into some outmodes, like the breakdance bot, some grumpy bot going "im walken 'ere!" or some just greeting her politely and in her panic make a scene, then Darcy an co. gets her out of there.
I doubt domm wants to present the poor/outmoded in an overly negative light. If the plebs get presented as coarse buttholes it would frick with the social commentary an American like Domm would probably like to present. It'd be more likely for a random yuppie to be hanging around the slum to harass Emmy and other outmodes than Domm considering to show the impoverished as pricks
Post the piece of artwork you have shot buckets to
Friends 🙂
It all makes sense.
>nipple legs
I didn't need to see that
pls draw ula dressed as leeloo from the 5th element
someone post the 2 Ajay crushing over Molly comics please. God what an absolute based chad kid Im going to draw /ss/ them
No, we're saving it for the hiatus.
based?
I have part of it. I think the rest is on Dom’s IG
And when did this happen in the comic?
It didn't, not in the main comic. It's from the exclusives we were supposed to be saving for the hiatus
It's from a Patreon bonus strip that we are saving for one of the following weeks for the upcoming hiatus. Anon is a troll trying to bait someone to get it posted early so that we have less to discuss during the hiatus. Ignore and have patience.
Oh so there's only those two? I have them, just thought there were more. thanks
There’s more, but I can’t find them. I know they’re on the Patreon but I’m too broke for that
I'll just wait then if they will post them on these threads. The two I have is enough for inspiration
I look forward to your results, drawfriend
How the frick did a comic about petite flat robot girls attract so many cumbrain cowbreasts enthusiasts?
a void to fill
her chest, that is
What? They're called udders. And to my knowledge there hasn't been a single nandroid with actual udders.
I don't love nandroids because of cow breasts. I love nandroids because of their submissive traits. I like the idea of a robot maid being perfect companion to humans. I want a submissive loving robowaifu that would give me unconditional love, affection and loyalty to me and loves me for who I am. Also nandroids are sexy, I'm aroused by them.
And here you are again, talking about shit you know nothing about
That's not what they're for in the comic and you admitted yourself you don't read it
She's late for Nandroid school!
Perfection
EMMY LOOK OUT FOR THE TRUCK!
Can someone explain the "anime girls running with toast in their mouth" trope to me?
It's been around for a long time, all the way back to the 70s apparently. Pretty much them shoveling the last of their breakfast into their mouth while running to school, because they lost track of time.
Running with a jelly donut could get a bit messy.
It's cute.
Have a quick Tille andAT4TY Space Core for this week.
Adorable, thanks for this. Also I really should get around to playing Portal 2, but I've got to convince my friend to pick it up with me since it's supposed to be better co-op from what I hear
You should. Unironically the best game ever made.
The main story is singleplayer though, you absolutely don't need to wait on a friend to experience it.
Good to know, now that I think of it though I'm not sure I ever finished Portal 1, I got pretty far but I haven't played since the Orange Box was only a couple years old. Both are still on my shelf, waiting for the day I dust 'em off again.
You can blast through Portal 1 in under 5 hours, and that's for a first time playthrough.
Portal 2 is way better though, and I'd probably recommend just playing that.
Good point, I'll cue those two up to play after finishing what I'm playing now. It'll be nice to play something on a console again, the last half dozen games have all been on PC for me.
I've gotten addicted to reading via listening to audiobooks over the last few years, if I have a few hours to do some menial cleaning or I'm out hiking/biking I can be focused enough to absorb a story without just standing still.
>I've gotten addicted to reading via listening to audiobooks over the last few years, if I have a few hours to do some menial cleaning or I'm out hiking/biking I can be focused enough to absorb a story without just standing still.
I see you are a man of culture as well. I like listening to audiobooks and podcasts while biking or playing games like Truck Simulator that don't require your full attention. However, the problem is that Nandroid fanfiction doesn't come in audiobook format, and my experience with the default English text-to-speech on my phone has been a nightmare.
>Nandroid fanfiction doesn't come in audiobook format,
RIP narrator-anon, for a short little window there it looked like we might start getting some, he even recorded some samples. Shame, but it probably would've been a large project since he wanted to find a woman to read female lines and incorporate some background music. Add in some occasional sound effects and you're basically producing a fandroid radio show like the BBC adaptation of Hitchhiker's Guide.
Speaking of, I'd shamelessly lift the Eagles' song they used as Nandroids in Space's theme, it just fits to my ears

Early on in the thread's history there were some cool mecha designs by one anon who did a good job with them, he could have a field day with some of the canon bots we've now seen.
>Early on in the thread's history there were some cool mecha designs by one anon who did a good job with them
meltgar? he is the only drawgay i know who would consistently draw robots with shapes that is vastly different than what we have now.
Not him but definitely who he meant, and I wouldn't call him early considering he's drawn Ula and the fedora one
He recently was in that thread, but havent seen him after a while
Probably with the threads going fast
I think that was him, yeah. I'm not so good with names but I recognize the unique designs he brought to the threads.
You are allowed to like Sally, and in fact I do as well.
>Molly club
Based Mr. Delaire
>Molly Club
so she is shared by a lot of people, huh?
This is news to you?
Portal 1 is very short, you can complete it in an evening. After playing it a few times and getting familiar with the puzzles you'll be able to complete it in an hour or two
If he already owns Portal 1 he should play both, 1 wouldn't take long and would provide useful context for 2.
You are welcome! And yes, it's a great game and the single player is just amazing.
Yeah, should have looked at more refs.I drew by feels. Anyways, thanks for the tip!
That's absolutely adorable.
Can you draw Inna stopping the Uvalde shooter please?
More like Inna running out of bullets and artillery support
Sorry Anon, can't do that but I sure wish they would have gotten that loser sooner.
Pic unrelated.
Don't worry, the invaders left enough ammo behind on their retreats.
I am pretty sure I am in this pic and I feel honoured. Thanks so much! XD
If only Emmy had a Sterling Sciences portal gun
Was quite happy with this one.
Story when
Gotta just take a day here and crank out another chapter or two!
I like the assistant nandroid. I want to see robots in more exotic science jobs, like doctors or doing dangerous field work (volcanologist). Those would be the perfect places for them.
My idea is that her line was built mostly for hazardous field work, but could be applied to any kind of scientific work.
Is there gonna be a field work story??
Hmm, well not for Madison specifically anyway. There's going to be dangerous situations in her story, but it's not directly due to her assignment.
I recently found an interview that Dominic did, it's a neat listen. He talks about art in general and some of his other works, but he does go into Emmy territory a fair bit. He says multiple times that he isn't too interested in the lore aspect of things, it's all there just to push his main story forward.
So there's a good chance many, many questions will go unanswered.
>He says multiple times that he isn't too interested in the lore aspect of things
>So there's a good chance many, many questions will go unanswered
Not to worry. That's what the fandom is for!
RUN EMMY, RUN!!! You’ll be late for school!!! …Also the Night Lords are coming.
Now make it a clickbait thumbnail.

I'm glad we get more fandroids but now that we've seen more models I'm kinda hoping we see more non-nans fan ocs
And I'm kinda hoping you die violently
Set yourself on fire and jump into the Grand Canyon.
It would help if we knew more about the other models in this universe. If we knew, for example, what exactly Ula used to be, or how she looked before her face damage, we'd probably see some OC robots of the same model by now.
>how she looked before her face damage
I've been wondering about that too. Her bob looks slightly asymmetrical, I wonder, has it always looked this way, or did she get a haircut or changed her wig so that her hair covers the damaged size of her face?
I liked Carl
Frick I miss Carl.
There's actually quite a few, named or unnamed, scattered around shorts and other stories.
Look! It's the original Nandroid V0.1, Bitty!
Wrong, the early nandroid model is Amelia
Not a nandroid.
Thanks everyone for the kind words, I really like making these animations. In the spirit of keeping the threads active and positive for next time, if you have something you'd like to see animated I can try and make it.
Just keep in mind I don't know how to edit models, and anything you want in scene has to be something I can find for free, so like cake, sunglasses, table are fine; F16 fighter jet, Nandroid in a pretty dress, or page 300 of Websters dictionary won't be possible for me. Simple yet precise instructions of what you'd like. And let's keep it classy please.
I will do my best.
Emmy sending kisses and winking with a single heart coming from her lips
Perfect! It will be done.
I don't wanna step on his toes, if you asked him to make it you should respect his time and wait.
I'm not even sure he's doing it, but that's fair I guess.
It's the trials and tribulations of getting free things. He's probably watching you right now. If there's something else else you'd like, I will try it instead
I don't really have any other ideas at hand... I dunno, Polly doing some silly dance?
I hate zoomer stuff but I'll do it, as it's been requested.
Yes, it is very tiresome, but there was lots of good back and forth in the beginning. Gotta take it where we can find it
How's this for a silly dance?
I will post this next week too just in case the anon is gone who requested it
Actually I'm still here somehow.
Thanks, you have no idea how much I needed this.
Emmy loves you
Until next week friends
I asked TGEx to recreate the Oscars slap with Franny and Molly a few months back but he hasn't got around to it, perhaps you might do it instead?
Surprised no ones posted this yet, I thought it was cute
What the frick is this
...Sally?
How about you do the same shitter
Go frick yourself
Real nantales moment.
Literally, he only comes here to either post about Sally or shit on Sally to generate engagement and sympathy for himself. Don't engage with any of it.
I don't have anything witty to say, so I'll just ask you to never post in the threads and to go die in a ditch
I died of cringe making this and so should you.
Best post in months. We need Emmy to MORB again
lol one morbillion keks.
Why didn't I think of making it all monochrome for consistency from the start?
Now make him into emmy.
Fricking based.
Two morbillion tickets sold.
Canon
Ahahaha
Awfully kek.
Damn, it got better! XD
Make him say the line.
See and when someone points it out properly he does this, right on cue
Welp here’s my mini-nan character Ninny. Thoughts?
What's her deal specifically?
Due to being small she can’t do as many tasks like a normal Nandroid, so she can get grumpy, worried or shy when she has to do something she typically can’t, sometimes twirling that curly bit of her hair to cope. Sometimes she’ll get adorably shy and or grumpy when someone helps her out in a task.
Not enough for you? We’ll just wait and see I’m still tweaking and experimenting with her character.
Whats the in-universe reason for her being short?
I’m thinking her and her kind were designed to be cheaper and easier to make than standard Nandroids…Yet they’re makers were likely speeds and forgot the flaws being shorter would have.
What is a mini-nan?
Why is a mini-nan?
Shortstack Nandroids.
*shitstack

All Nandroids Are Wonderful. 3MB size limit on webms makes it so you can't see Franny's cute smile, so better quality is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CzuEFpcYkD4
That's cute as frick anon, these little animated shorts are getting better all the time
I think this means I have to bite the bullet and buy a new GPU so I can render in good quality without it taking days and days. I spent all the time making Franny CUTE and it's so hard to see....
I love this (and her) so much, thank you!
Fitting how Molly starts as if she's hating this and then mellows out.
And Franny is an introvert is cute.
That's amazing, I love these. Keep them coming!
Same drawing, now with trigger discipline update cuz I suck.

I can't get tired of the fact that their eyes actually produce light, would be cool if they also could cast shadows.
They do cast shadows, but the shadow object would have to be squashed between their eyeball and a flat surface for the shadow to be cast and you to see it. Can up the value, too, and give them spotlight eyes probably
Can I get a looped gif of just her doing the thing on the floor please?
The thing on the floor?? The WORM??? How are you ever gonna impress your nandroid GF with a night on the town if you don't even know the WORM
Thanks, I know jackshit about dancing
Well now is the time to LEARN
Don't fight the feeling
Don't fight it
Haha, that was the reference picture I used for the mouth. There is just something else about Franny isn't there
>There is just something else about Franny isn't there
She is precious.
She's one of the best.
Let me tell you about the worm, she is the funkiest worm in the world.
Emmy-Pilled here with the weekly update, more wooden discs produced (nearly at 70%), a few setbacks with printing out a right template for the grinding (it will be transferred and cut out from some thin plywood). Been busy most of the week with more boxing training, but next week should see enough time to finally move up to scaling and gluing the discs. Then moving onto making the kneejoints and foot-tips.
Even if the outline wasn't on it, I can SEE the leg in the wood. My brain is fried from nandroids
haha
here you go (still shortening the rods at the shoulder-part because I felt they were too long, so doing some extra welding) enjoy my best attempt at making them perform the <3 hand symbol
thank you
Abolutely adorable!
Thanks a lot!
Do the thumbs have a ball joint above the hinge one connecting it to the hand? If not, adding one would help create more realistic movement options and allow for better articulation. That might be more than you want to deal with now though. Maybe consider adding it after you've addressed other aspects of the project.
the fingers only move vertically, not horizontally. I had been thinking of taking apart and remaking the hands. But it would be a gigantic hassle to do so, in any case that is the reason all parts on the doll are made to be assembled/disassembled at any point for repairs or upgrades
I think you should ignore it for now and keep on with the rest of the build. Once the build is finished, maybe consider adding a ball joint at the thumbs. Its the digit where the lack thereof is most prominent. But if you get side tracked with endless upgrades of already finished pieces, you won't finish the whole thing. So for now, ignore it. Those are some damn good hands as is.
I totally get that, and yea the hands are perfect. From the moment I spotted them on amazon I knew they would fit like a glove
Kek, good job, pilled one.
Can I request a new close look at the hands?
I'm obsessed with how well made they are.
Morb bless you, Pilled. Keep up the good work.
The legs are coming along. What about the excess wood that are left though? What do you plan on using them for?
not anything really, other than future filler material if it´s needed. Same with the entire bucket of sawdust I´ve gathered so far from the amount of drilling done
if you are good at wood carving you could try making miniature emmys with them. it would be cute.
funnily enough that already is on my to-do list, got an entire storage room of exotic woods I´ve collected from my previous job. From mahogany to beech, ash and hickory
In past threads I briefly saw a cropted drawing of nandroids as mermaids.
Do you know where's the complete drawing?
It's a Patreon exclusive.
It'll get posted when we need more content during Dom's haitus, patience
"Patience"
Shut the frick up you annoying mother fricking smug Black folk why are you like this why would you say not to post something that has zero discussion value for a thread during the hiatus do you expect it to carry a thread on its own somehow you moronic skullfricked troony "writer"
It can't carry a thread on its own, but it will have to. Nobody discusses the comic anyways moron, look at this frickin place.
All right then.
Nice try nantales but those three other fine gentlemen are not me.
For I am the one and only, nantales.
Digits won't save you from everything you've done you wienersucking troony
Lol do you homosexuals have ANY proof to ANY of the claims you make about him
My anger is proof enough, if he wasn't a piece of shit i wouldn't be angry at him
Nandroids are both the disease and the cure. The plague and the panacea. We suffer from what we enjoy, and return here to enjoy the suffering.
I toned down the audio but VOLUME WARNING.

gotta rep for our nandroids, we´re all gonna make it bros

Excuse me, but we already have a MAN fixing that issue.
and soon, many Anons will follow suit, the future of IRL nandroids is here my friends
I should properly update the meme since I have my wallet photo now
Gigabased
Imagine that you drop it and the expression of the good samaritan that returns it to you.
This is just embarrassing
You are literally hitman nantales
I can't wait for that. I really want a nandroid robowaifu that shows unconditional love, affection and loyalty to me and care for me.
Wait it's a real series???? I thought it was all porn

Would nantales want this for you?
To be a homosexual with his mouth stuffed full of Black person wiener?
Do you think there's underground robot blood sports? I can totally see outmode boxers caving eachother's faces in for money, or like a wienerfight
>the underground fight club is already forgotten
sad
it´s a shame, I had some animations planned after I got done with the current Emmy Doll project
Do robots have wieners though?
It's one of the earliest and most fascinating ideas we've had in this fandom.
Never forgotten.
I'm playing with that idea, just not in a wienerfight type of setting.
lame
Morbing hard I see
Calm down Dixieanon

I hate that I have to share this interest I have in this online webcomic with the most mentally unhinged crowds online that are only one missing pill away from sperging out on anyone or anything they see. Each thread has ended the exact same way for the better part of a year. doesn't anyone get tired of this? On either side? The people who engage in these threads or the literal schizoids that post here? Why the hell does anyone even come here?
Shut up Black person
https://voca.ro/17nvEwMHvg2T
I think that these "schizos" think they're funny by acting like tards on purpose
Keep on being gay, anon. You've been doing a spectacular job whining like a b***h these past few months!
Noelle was a disaster on the Fandom
>Keep on being gay, anon. You've been doing a spectacular job whining like a b***h these past few months!
I don't agree with how anons like him present their point, but I do kind of agree with that point.
You can have whatever tastes, preferences and fetishes you like, but when you start forcing something onto a community, you are just naturally going to invite backlash and gatekeeping.
Like seriously, have you guys even SEEN the actual source material? You, know, Emmy the Robot? The webcomic? Have you seen how its characters are depicted? Surely you have. So why are you even in this fandom if you are into big breasts?
I mean, if you liked vegetarian dishes, you would go to a vegetarian restaurant, not to a steak restaurant, right?
Not trying to stir up shit here, just genuinely trying to understand.
>You can have whatever tastes, preferences and fetishes you like, but when you start forcing something onto a community,
Nobody's forcing anything on anyone, it's just random fricks blowing things out of proportions to stir shit, like anything else
>So why are you even in this fandom if you are into big breasts?
I didn't know liking big breasts meant you have to hate flat characters, damn.
>I didn't know liking big breasts meant you have to hate flat characters, damn.
I've never seen a boob man who didn't hate on smaller chests, nice try nantales
Im a boob guy who doesnt care if theres no boobs but im also a real schizo and not the internet thread ruining kind so take that as you will
Forcing is perhaps too strong a word, but when you see the same particular artists drawing it in large quantities and nothing else, often in tandem with the same particular requesters commissioning it regularly, it can get really annoying. Especially if they take characters you like and turn them into something they are not (exhibit A:
)
I somewhat agree with your point but you put it in the gayest way possible
Why do you care if people you don't care about do things you don't like
It's not like they're shoving it in your face forcing you to look
Shut the frick up rusty
Black personcord spotted
>So why are you even in this fandom if you are into big breasts?
>into big breasts
Anon, it's called "being straight"
Also, regardless of fandom, not every piece of fan content is going to stay completely on model, especially for female characters. Online artists, horny or not, have always liked to experiment with pre-existing character design. If you want to be such a prude about it, then I would just stick to the comic itself and/or only follow artists like Bal & I_G
please find the inspiration to do bigtiddychokercrew
I'm not lem, but I think I got the inspiration for it. I'll throw in Noelle, Aria, General Dixie, Goth Lulu, and any other nan with huge jugs just to spite the schizo(s) in the thread

holy shit it's been a while I wonder if that guy's still around
>Why the hell does anyone even come here?
Because it's fun and interesting. I'm here for the good parts of these threads, the balance always shifts but for me they win over the cringe and shit parts in the end.
I do wish people didn't fall for bait so easily, like holy shit how naive some people here are?
>it think it's bait and not genuine hatred
Yeh, I'm dissapointed that people here are so naive, I thought Cinemaphile users would be a bit more clever.
You're all Black folk and zoomers underage dicksuckers of course you take the bait
You piece of shit Black person
That's bait, I refuse to take it.
What do people win by getting (YOU)s ?
My duck expand and I cum ropes
Do you have a better place to discuss nandroids? Because I don't know of another but I wish there was one
First time in a Cinemaphile thread community?
Do you think nandroids have a sterling banding mark on them? As if they were cattle? Like a tattoo
are STA and SLA still updating lulu stories?
STA does, SLA hasn't for a long time now.
this makes me horribly sad. I get they loosely shared a similar universe but I really liked the seeing both of them write from different facets of storytelling. If you carefully read SLA's works, he would stitch in a lot of the fanart at the time into the narrative.
I thought it was the other way around: that he commissioned Jam to draw the scenes
I unironically miss SLA's smut. Wonder if he's even still writing the next chapter
It would be good to see them again
>I unironically miss SLA's smut. Wonder if he's even still writing the next chapter
It's been over a year since the last part, so probably not.
i think we're still stuck on Namek with SLA's lulu (waiting to do the date and the movie with anon and lulu). I'd love to see some agressvive world building and cameos from other nans. We have a more vibrant fandroid scene now that there's a lot of great inserts that could happen
and yes, I love the well crafted smut as well
STAY MORBING FRICKBOY
Can anyone post that one meme of nordic guy/Yes guy having Avery on his side? I saw it one day on /misc/, but I couldn't find it.
Flat is Justice
t.pedo
I mean, if you really want this become real, if you are young, go to university and become a electronics/computer engineer. Also studying Computer Science and focusing in Machine Learning / AI could be another route.
Drawing pictures of Emmy won't make her real, anons. Art is useless just like religion.
>a literal fedora tipper
>muh religion
you have to go back
lol I´m literally creating a real Emmy, the frick you on about?
>Also studying Computer Science and focusing in Machine Learning / AI could be another route
I'm skeptical of this, you can make *an* AI, but it won't be a human-like AI which is want we want here. We're still not really sure how our own minds really work, so how are going to make facsimiles of them in a computer? Fully figuring out how a human brain works is probably what you want to focus on first, so that we can map it and hopefully recreate digitally.
Alas, you are creating but a lifeless body.
>Alas, you are creating but a lifeless body.
>pretending crab bucket isn't peak stable society
china moment
Crabs are for boiling
b***h technically a fully functioning nandroid is still "lifeless". its not birthed from a pussy with blood coursing through its veins lol, what kinda point is that?
>I'm skeptical of this
well, trying to made a full human like android with a human level of intelligence is not going to happen in the next 50 years at least. Better start working now, maybe your grandkids could marry one and one could take care of you in your old age.
>you can make *an* AI, but it won't be a human-like AI
Still more human than any woman ever. Robowaifus can be way more humane than roasties and can have human traits such as love, affection, sympathy, loyalty, personality which women lack all of these things. Which is why I wanted waifubot so much.
>Alas, you are creating but a lifeless body.
Sounds like women pretty much. They'ree lifeless.
>Art is useless
Imagine being this much of a midwit. Do you have any idea how important art really is for us humanity and how it has a great impact on it?
>Imagine being this much of a midwit
Yeah imagine such thing, not like you'd ever know
>Do you have any idea how important art really is for us humanity and how it has a great impact on it?
Important to create propaganda and manipulate the masses? yeah, it's good at that....just like religion.
Oh my god, you're such a gaytheist.
lulu love for all you lonely anon's out there
shut the frick up you unflat monster
Based Lem, thanks.
You may recall 2 greentexts about Handy, a Nandroid who replaced Stress Test Anon at his job, from about a month ago. The premise originated almost as a joke, but I think has since developed into something solid-ish. I had a few more ideas, and I've finally began putting them together, so here is Part 2 out of what will probably be 3 or 4.
>It's been several months since you graduated and got your bizarre assignment at the newly reorganized General Stress-Testing department
>You've lost count of how many of your fellow robots you've broken and destroyed in the name of helping the company make newer models better and stronger
>Your supervisors were right, the "careless update" really helped you get used to what you do
>You almost didn't feel bad about it
>Almost
>Still, you were doing what you were tasked with, and you were doing it well, much to the approval of your human supervisors
>To their credit, they treated you with respect, almost as if you were a human employee
>They didn't mind you taking up some hobbies like drawing in your free time, and you were even allowed a small salary of sorts to spend on art supplies
>All in all, although this wasn't the life you wished for, it wasn't that bad
>Aside from an occasional sarcastic remark from Debbie, or a rare pang of guilt or disgust that the "careless update" didn't completely suppress, everything has been going well
>Until today

Based, always nice to see a greentext.
This, they've become a rare sight since Janny hunted them to near-extinction. Nature is healing.

It's making fun of those/you spergs anon
See the thing with TLO would be he'd make new art to piss off shitters for attention. But can you stop posting this Black person propaganda, and go back to actually making something good?
TLO is a forever seething gayot hiding behind a "I'm not owned I'm not owned!" narrative
t. owned
Yes TLO is as owned a gay as a Black person in a plantation
Have to go in the kola well to find your iq
Who owned Teelokay?
Owned?
Own, present tense.
He's still a slave.
Who owns him then?
Are you daft
do you know who you are talking to
Kek, great comeback for the previous thread. I'll be needing this
Can you post a higher resolution version?
what is wrong with BLACKED? are people now criticizing other people fetishes?
Are you daft
That's a blacked enthusiast of course he is
Thank you!
You know, I can't even disagree really, I'm not a big fan of how "edgy" stress testing is presented in STA's story. But it was a part of the original premise upon which the whole thing is based, so I'm kind of stuck running with it now.
I like her, good work Anon
She killed Lulu
Stress testing is an objectively moronic practice no matter the spin you put on it
It makes no logical sense, and it's only another of those contrieved plots to make muh sad feels
You write nicely, but the subject is just stupid no matter how you look at it.
Stress testing is a real thing done to real products all the time though.
Stress testing irl is a completely different practice than whatever is portrayed in this Fandom
You don't take working appliances from their owners to thoroughly demolish them with violence, you put the product through an intense work cycle and try to find how it might break.
Just bashing it into broken bits with a hammer is not "stress testing"

Okay homo
If I don't make it to the end, look up Handy the Nandroid on the spreadsheet, Prologue and Part 1 are there, and this will be too.
>On the way to your office you check your schedule for the day as usual, and discover that today your first victim is a yet another fellow Nandroid
>With a sigh, you open the door and enter the room
>And freeze at the sight of a very familiar face looking at you
>"Handy!" the Nandroid sitting on the stool in the center of the room lights up
>"P-penny?" you stare at her in disbelief as she leaps from her seat to hug you
>Penny was your classmate, one of the few that you were friends with
>On your graduation day, she and another friend got assigned to families living on the same steet in a nice posh neighborhood
>So why is she back at Sterling, and lined up for stress-testing of all things?
(2/5?)
>"What are you doing here?" you ask her after she finally breaks off the embrace
>"I... I don't know. Much of my memory since graduation is missing after they ran cognitive tests on me"
>She seems ashamed of her situation, and her cheek circles begin glowing accordingly
>"But I must have done something very wrong, because apparently I was brought here by Outmode Requisitions after my family shut me down" she continues, avoiding your gaze. "I hope I didn't hurt anyone!"
>"You could never hurt anyone, Penny" you assure her, putting a hand on her shoulder in an attempt to comfort her. "You don't rememebr anything?"
>"Just vague impressions... The last thing I remember clearly is Dr Simmons finishing a diagnostic on me, saying I would be perfect for something, and sending me here. What is this place anyway?"
>"Oh, this is..." You freeze again, unable to answer
>You don't have the heart to tell her where she is, or what is expected to happen to her here
>You picture yourself proceeding with the stress-testing and inflicting suffering on your friend, and it repulses you
>Your own cheeks now light up in guilt and disgust, your training and the software update helpless to supress them
>"Excuse me, I'll be back in a few minutes" you blurt out as you storm out of the room
>For the first time ever, you can't go through with a task given to you
>You need to talk to your supervisor
(3/5?)
* * *
>A minute later you are standing in front of Dr Green in his office
>"Sir, that Nandroid that I have scheduled for testing today..."
>"Is there a problem with her?" Dr Green looks up from the paperwork on his table
>"I'm sorry, sir. I can't do it. She was in my graduating class, and we were close. I know we are "just robots", but she was my friend and I can't bring myself to hurt her, even with the software updates that you gave me"
>"I see" your supervisor responds after a heavy sigh. "I'm sorry for putting you through this. However, your friend was taken in by the Requisitions on her owners' request. So she is not going back to service in any case"
>You think back to how happy Penny looked during graduation, imagining the life she was going to have looking after her two young charges
>The life that seems to have been unjustly cut short after only a few months
>"Can she at least be given a proper retirement instead of... this?" you plead
>"I'm afraid this is out of my hands. And using her for testing saves us wasting a brand new model fresh from the factory... God, that sounds terrible when I put it like that, I'm sorry" Dr Green sighs again. "Look, I can take her off your schedule, but I'll have to give her to Debbie instead"
(4/5?)
>This is the last thing that you wanted to hear
>Debbie was another one of your classmates, and if you could speak honestly, she was your least favorite one
>Her personality was as close to what could be described as "insuffarable" as it could possibly get within the confines of standard Nandroid programming
>She looked delighted every time you or any of your classmates failed an excercise during education
>More worryingly, she also looked delighted when she, like you, was assigned to Stress-Testing
>And when during training you asked her how did she take the "careless update", she simply said that she didn't even need one
>The image of Debbie torturing Penny and *enjoying* it appears in your mind, making your non-existant stomach churn
>A sense of anger overwhelming you, you feel determined to not let it happen
>"On second thought, sir, I'd rather test her myself" you declare
>"Are you sure?" Dr Green raises an eyebrow. "You weren't up to it just a minute ago"
>"Honestly, sir, I'd rather do it myself than let Debbie anywhere near her"
>Your supervisor scoffs. "Alright then. Is there anything else?"
>"No, sir"
>"Then I'll see you later. Good luck!"
>You do a little curtsy and leave the room, and as you head back to your workspace, you mentally prepare yourself to make the most difficult decision of your life
(5/5)
Next part is halfway done but will have to wait until next week, I guess.
Yeah, I'm not a good writer by any means, but I had fun doing it.
Oh my god nobody care frick off
And yet time and time again, you care enough to type this.
Because nobody else will make him stop otherwise I have to take one for the team
Yeah I bet you like taking it from teams
So how long do think Domm will take off?
Probably 3 or 4 weeks at most, but I'm not sure.
He said it wouldn't be long this time, probably only two weeks, three at max.

Good night, thread.
See you next time, man.
Hopefully it'll be better, (but it probably won't)
Well, at least this is still a considerable improvement from last week.
don't be too hasty
This thread has already last longer and had more actual discussion, and had a lot of cool OC too. What happens post-bump limit is not really important.
I will make it my personal quest to ruin next threads from now on
You'll never sleep go die
Hmmm looks like a prone masturbation enthusiast
How melaniated are you anon
Remember the good times, Emmy
Everything is gonna be okay.
Of course it will, now that you are back!
