[747] Diego's original designs

Geez, Kat. Way to be a grouch. I can see why she might not think highly of Diego or his designs right now though.

Someone should photoshop that in! Maybe put it in the Boxbot thread.

Also, I like how that one robot is comforting his friend in the 3rd last panel there.

They could be sideways "M"s

Also, Kat is about to be attacked by monkeys. Or sea gulls. Or sea gulls carrying rabid monkeys.

LOOK OUT KAT!!

It's a bunny!

Hmm, looks like Diego was heavily inspired by human anatomy. That's bones in an arm, it I'm not mistaken.

That little robot looks heartbroken.

Only if you're going to stab somebody. Little o's make excellent cannonballs.

And the big O's? Well.... you remember that scene from Indiana Jones?

Though the blueprints are supposed to explain everything in all the details. She's just grumpy.

Oh my goodness, Kat, you are being very selfish. Nothing Diego did will be furthered or hindered by you using his plans to help robots in the modern era. Do not deny this to the robots who are relying on you.

Honor versus reason~

I am bad at editing.

But enough of that.
Poor Kat... She's still mad at Diego/she wants to live up to Diego but not steal designs as somebody else said. I wonder what the EEEs are?
Sorry I left that "chapter 12 page 4" in there X.x

Well there is that whole thing about Diego being a horrible little man you sent an innocent woman to her death just because she didn't love him... She might be a bit bitter about that

That would probably be why she responds with such hatred to using anything that deigo created and the little robots who are just trying to help her get some of that hatred... hell she may even be a bit bitter because of their continued love for Diego

Well I agree with you, and I think my response was a little elliptic. I think she is shattered because of a realization that a brilliant scientist/engineer does not equal a morally good person. That's what I should have said...

You mention Reynardine's pointed comments. What chapter were they in?

Sad update. I find I really feel for the little robots. Not only do they idolize Kat, but have a lot of hope vested in her - they've had to make their own bodies, with diminishing returns, since Diego's time. They have to be hoping that Kat can restore some of their former design and ability.

They put so much on the shoulders of a girl who's still learning, not only her craft but about the world she lives in and the treachery that humanity is capable of. It's not fair of them to do so, but she's their only hope right now, not only of restoration, but it seems to me that they feel that it's required of them to redeem their creator...to validate their existence by proving that they are good despite Diego's flaws.

Really, they're both dealing with the same issue - sins of the father. Not so literally for Kat, but she's still part of a society founded on treachery and selfishness. It seems that Kat is in a better position to actually do something to prove her independence, however, and so she carries their burden as well as her own.

Maybe I'm reading too much into this nascent chapter, but I've long had a soft spot for the Court's robots. They seem to need a protector, and have gone without one for so long. I hope it doesn't take Kat too long to realize that they're worthy of it, and that she doesn't resent being pressed into that role.

There is something to make everyone snap.
