Leak

I'm pretty sure it's directions to "(Ex)it", with the "Ex" obscured...

Yelling Bird

I have blackout curtains. I have a corner bedroom that faces the rising sun though, so they block a lot, but not everything.

Pejo

Totally forgot about Momo! Thanks for the revisit.

Green

aHA but it's not on the back of her hand! Loophole!

Michael

Yeah of course he gets rolayties

Chris Warren

Okay, I like this agent lady. She's got zazz.

Joe

bless your heart. you think being right matters in an argument with a significant other.

Mark Eichin

Not that there's any shortage of technologically-morphing outfits around here... but her sweater stripes are missing in the last panel?

ValdVin

At night I sleep with my head on one pillow and under another. My wife once asked me if I'd like a Dracula-style crypt.

ValdVin

Nicolas: Yeah. Up in Cubetown Moray spends her sleep (sic) time in a freezer-sized cabinet. She's pretty adaptable, physically and emotionally.

Opus the Poet

Probably would really want to wear a condom, and refrain from going "balls deep".

Clifton Royston

@Thunder Your reply was apparently a hidden message to the universe, damn it. Last night I was trying to sleep but up until after 2:00 am thanks to people on the next block having a party with the stereo cranked up and bad bass distortion. Even with the serious-grade foam earplugs in, I couldn't sleep because I could hear the bass as a nasty buzzing noise thumping on and off. I could have called in a noise complaint but I was too tired to even handle that.

SilverbackRon

We have seen that hair is easily changeable on AI, and mostly I just support the idea of a character named Dragon Fruit. hahahaha

SilverbackRon

Here is the question no one seems to ask. If her charging pod is hanging above the dance floor from the ceiling, how does she get into it every night? Can she really just LEAP up and climb in? And if the party is raging, won't other AIs see this and think "Whoa cool" and also try to leap up to her home? Does she have a "do not disturb" sign on it?

Summer

It's a discotel

Summer

If it's not an Iron Maiden but it IS a charging pod, then it must be an AC/DC dangling above the dance floor. Are all the dancing AIs super bad now?

Randall Norman Pick

AIs' sleeping habits remain absolutely fascinating in QC.

Nicolas Dao-Phan

Given Moray's body, I think that any enclosure with a volume slightly bigger than her would classify as cozy.

William Cole

Who lives in a go-go cage over the club? Sven's. Hot. A—gent! Black sweater & sassy, she isn't a sub! Sven's. Hot. A—gent! Oops, wrong song.

Stephen Wells

In the background of panel 1, one AI is whispering to the other "That's Moray, she's from Canada".

enchantedsleeper

Omg, I just got to Momo's introduction. https://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1298 Can her chassis still do the eels thing?? Asking for a Sven

Thomas Halpin

Here I was assuming they met through work.

Mark

I Liked it but I don't remember it!

enchantedsleeper

"I bet I can get a beer" With an X that says you're under legal drinking age on your *face*, Liz? 😅 Crushbot knew what Crushbot was doing with this one

enchantedsleeper

Or feeling bereft without Claire's attention xD Or... chastising herself for not looking after Liz. Those are the main times we've seen sad!Moray

enchantedsleeper

This predates me as a patron, so it's awesome to see XD I love Melon and Yay's perfectly matched oddball friendship. Roko really has her work cut out with those two

enchantedsleeper

She doesn't look like a Lemon (chassis type), they all have the same hair

enchantedsleeper

It is basically a charging pod, just... suspended 🤔 In a club

enchantedsleeper

(Faye literally came with a "Don't do it" warning. Actually the warning just said "DON'T", in viscous dark red letters)

enchantedsleeper

If there's advice that says "don't do it", Sven has done it 😅

Boots McGoot

gee, i wonder how they met! Sven is never beating the sleazebag charges 😅

Clifton Royston

Wow, that was 4 years ago already?

Clifton Royston

ITYM "you ain't go-going nowhere." I'm too tired to filk the whole song though.

Clifton Royston

I am suddenly very amused that "no spikes" and "mostly aluminum" is enough for Moray to consider it cozy. Moray has a very positive outlook on life (except when she's getting possessive about Claire's attention.)

enchantedsleeper

Wellp, that sent me down an archive rabbit hole, which was a fun way to wake up this morning xD https://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1292 I do not miss this past!Marten x3

David Martelli

Aluminum damsel?

BookBeard

I feel like blackout curtains are probably cheaper, but sometimes you just gotta go for style points.

Yelling Bird

I wouldn't mind having a spikeless Iron Maiden to sleep in. I sleep in the daytime, so it would be great to block out the light.

Yelling Bird

More than you want to know...

Tim Peterson

Although the 'You should probably wash your arm' part would concern me, Moray IS a robot that Sven could easily have sex with. Don't tell me you haven't thought about it.

Bagge

Metal!

Shane Wegner

Hanging? Contains humanoids? No spikes? I believe that is more properly called a gibbet.

Clifton Royston

The even more important question is: In the second panel, is she checking out Sven, Sven's agent, or Moray? She sure looks like she's checking out someone.

Clifton Royston

Yes. I was actually looking this up a few weeks ago, checking an allusion I wanted to make. If they were dead, the 'thorities would usually coat the body in tar or pitch to make it last longer before it rotted, similar to what they did with pirates sentenced to be "hanged in chains." Bonus Brit slang: In rural parts of England, people described someone being gibbeted as "keeping sheep by moonlight."

BookBeard

The definition of "condo" has little to do with the type of structure but rather about the whether it is owned as opposed to rented. So technically they can both be accurate.

Matthew Van Gangelen

He is right. Describing a charging pod installed inside a club as a condo above the club is either denial or deception. He needs a new agent.

Matthew Van Gangelen

Sven’s description is far more accurate than “Condo.” I feel this person is being deliberately difficult.

Creeperkry

Moray says that would be cozy, but she'd probably schloop through the bars by accident.

kaitou

Since it's mostly aluminum, it must be a candominium.

Shawn K. Younkin

That reminds me so much of Cult of the Lamb!

William Cole

THIS IS THE IMPORTANT QUESTION! (Related, is she wearing a thong?)

JCfromNC

I knew I should've read more replies before posting my comment.

William Cole

Sven managed to have a reportedly professional relationship with his lawyer way back when he & Faye were a thing.

BookBeard

More like a pair of watermelons, eh? https://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=4341

JCfromNC

Well, the neighbors might be noisy, but if you're a mechanical being, I imagine you could choose to dampen or turn off your hearing for a while if you needed some quiet time. Or at least put yourself into standby mode with a few triggers to bring you out early if needed.

BookBeard

That was Lydia, and it was a college internship so I imagine it was only for the semester. https://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=1229

Thunder

Depends on how loud the bass is.

Kurist Zero

This feels like the perfect opportunity for May to reappear having an absolute wild time at the club lol. Preferably in a shirt that just has a watermelon on it, causing Sven to say 'uh, I have to go' 😂

Andrea Andrew

Poor Sven. His haircut looked so nice before the timeskip.

Timothy Roller

Wikipedia says you're on with gibbet, which hangs from a gallows.

Captain Button

Do we know what happened to Sven's intern? Has she moved on to greater things?

Mindscrambler

Pinstripes, Pinstripes, no Pinstripes

Joseph Bonnar

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ytBk-nvLsAQ

Joseph Bonnar

Beware Sven's agent. They have LIPS!

Jared Kolbly

Is that prime or bargain real estate?

OldGoat

How did I miss that one?

Shawn K. Younkin

That's Dragon Fruit, one of Melon's and Lemon's sisters.

pseudoclever

Hi Sven!!!

BookBeard

Anything is a sex thing if you try hard enough. Just ask Pintsize.

BookBeard

We've seen the charging pods in one of the bonus strips that never made it to the main site, and to be fair they *are* roughly the size and shape of an iron maiden. They do look marginally more comfortable though. https://www.patreon.com/posts/34421138

Doc Gumby

I was wondering as well...

Shawn K. Younkin

But, she is not go-going anywhere...

nbarnes

I'd say that's a deep cut, but lots of music people around Jeph's place.

Miyaa

Sven’s agent feels like a shorter, huskier May. So let’s nickname her June for obvious reasons.

Joseph Bonnar

Gremlizabeth knows when she is overmatched. YOU can't stop me. Bubbles can. Gremlizabeth: Fair.

SpookyPenguin

And I'm so small and I'm so small. You raised me and then you let me fall

ValdVin

I say "go go cage".

Tannerbot

Yes Sven, keep digging that hole, I'm sure you'll find a winner the further down you go.

Thomas Halpin

Dating your agent is usually advised against. That doesn't mean Sven would follow the advice.

Drazi

Depends. How high can you throw? If you aren't Bubbles, that is.

Kenneth

An obliette might have a better view...

Shawn K. Younkin

Probably just crinkly.

Shawn K. Younkin

Right Band, guys name is Eddie!

Sean Kinlin

It's not made of iron, it's made of condominium.

Thomas Halpin

I think they call it a crow cage? It's a cage for hanging a victim, alive or otherwise, encaged, from a gibbet to serve as an example. Nasty practice.

Yamtaggler

I mean, noisy neighbors aren't a problem if you can turn your ears off

Sean Kinlin

It's a condo in the same sense as a "cat condo."

Julie Chan

I love that the club has directions to IT

Buck Caldwell

I'm just asking what we all want to know: Who's the cute redhead entering in the background there?

Andrea Andrew

Love how Sven and his agent are the focus while everyone else is doing stuff near them.

Pejo

Location: Midtown East, rent: $1700/mo

Shawn K. Younkin

You say "Iron Maiden", I say affordable living space.

Carrie

If she gets any gratuities is my question. She's an attraction for the club....

David Durant

Faaaace meeeeats?

Doc Gumby

Looks like the gang is causing some chatter in the background there.

Sammitch

She's perfectly normal, they're just MAKING it weird.

Timothy Roller

So it's a gallows or...

Captain Button

But does it have the skinless face guy? (Or am I thinking of the wrong band?)

Olaf

I wonder what kind of music a band named Alumaiden would make.

David Durant

I wonder if it's cheaper because "dangling"...?

Andrew Mitchell

Hanging from the ceiling.

SilverbackRon

An AI doesn't really require a lot of living space. A de-spiked Iron Maiden sounds about right for a minimum. "Cozy one-room charging unit, no guests"
