I like that robot guy who examined the ugly little birdy.

He's one cool mo'fo.

Indeed. love the metal bits on the head - they remind me of the back ties of a bandana. Also - is it just me, or are those of the way better hands than most robots have?

But now the important question - does she have a blender in her person for the making of babybirdfood?

Well, those are designed to be able to handle small animals safely. Unlike tankbot with the scythe fingers and the claw hands of those two robots who wanted to help a few comics back.

I guess Kat isn't used to robots who can handle such delicate tasks.

Too bad the examiner 'bot did (one of) the only thing's that's a big no-no when it comes to examining birds; holding it on it's back. Though of course, it might have enough knowledge of bird-examining to let go before the poor little birdie suffocates.

He is his father.

wait. that phrase... reminding me of something... He is his (own?) father... CITY FACE!

At any rate, this is a generational story.

*gasp* so is City Face's story!
I have just now realized how The City Face Cycle is an allegory for the entire workings of the court, its Generational nature, and the necessary relationships between the Court (represented by City Face) and the Aetheric Beings (represented by the Fairies. Notably the esteemed Polo - the Bestest Dancer).

The world will be destroyed if City Face cannot learn to dance the finest of dances to woo Girl Pigeon. Because of the Humans.
What does this represent? Are we about to find out with this, the ugly pigeon baby story (Ugly Pigeon Baby, who may or may not be City Face, son of City Face - Saviour of the World, and dancer sublime)?

You realize that that is an incredibly sound interpretation?

Animal (and especially wings) bone structure is often very elegant/efficient, and that's what Kat was complaining about the robots she'd built.

But then, life was also easier when I was running around here pretending to be a man, so I guess I should just "man up" and get back to work.

She suddenly realized she'd left her ornithological... material in Annie's room and is hoping to hell she can retrieve it before it's seen.

I don't think it was that expression, sadly.

The intricacies of Kat's mind (read: she's got the hots for birds) suggests otherwise.

I understood. Yet, I believe it is the intricacies of your mind (read: you've got the hots for her having the hots for birds) that suggests otherwise.

I like Kat. She's pretty cool, yo.

Paz is cool too.

I just love how Mr. Siddell's art style evolved over the course of all the comics so far. I can't begin to imagine the awesome that will occur in 300 pages or something.
