[This has been a courtesy shitposting interlude.]

[Joking:] You aren't even trying; that doesn't look like any of them.

[sketchycharacter]

That's called artistic interpretation. I captured the emotion of the situation.

[t65]

Is that why he's... sitting on nothing? Artistic interpretation?

You would make a great robot world peace ambassador. Keep up the good work.

If that position is open, it's because the last guy who had it quit in despair.

Shouldn't there be more destruction around him?

[ Some of that crashing about had to have broken something. ]

Pretend it's there. Good drawing pencils don't grow on trees and it would have taken up too much paper.

[Actually they are trees, technically.]

[heroicpose]

This offensive in about a hundred different ways but I guess no one cares because we're different.

I'll start first with saying I'm tired of explaining we're not robots.

[sketchycharacter]

Oh, sorry. [Not about being offensive because he's kind of a dick sometimes.] Is there some word for your [uh] species?

kickin it right next to him

[diamondhack]

So... I'm going to call this a successful waste of time, yes?

hideous mutual influences right here

[sketchycharacter]

I can't believe I let you talk me into sharing it like this. You're going to cheapen my art.

[iseedeadbees]

Could have used a few more explosions in the background, if I'm honest.

[sketchycharacter]

I was conserving paper. Who knows how long it'll be before we stop on a planet where I can shop again.

Well, it seems even without Miko being here her art style will always find a way.

[And the slight humor of this message is lost as she types another message just after it]


And a bit of advice, most of us you're calling 'robots' have never dealt with humans and their humor, and so won't realize you're not actually calling us mindless and soulless automatons to be spiteful.

who's miko she sounds great

[That's...helpful advice actually]

i didn't realize robot was an offensive term. we don't really have any kind of living metal people where i'm from it's pretty new to me.

[harderfasterwrecker]

too square too grey

unless it's megatron

then give it big red stupid optics

[ Whirl's been more offended by people calling him a 'what' instead of a 'who' lately and really, the Captain's got it covered. Instead, he's here to say exactly what they're all thinking....probably. ]

[sketchycharacter]

it's an artistic interpretation. the squareness is meant to represent the inflexibility of everyone who's arguing

optics like eyes? okay i'll remember that for next time

[liberaltus]

I am...so relieved you drew me better.

[Which is all that matters really.]

[sketchycharacter]

Well, you're a better subject. Plus I don't have a lot of experience drawing mechanical people.

[Also let's face it, he didn't put a lot of time into this drawing.]

[ See Charlie. See Charlie laugh. See her try hard to not laugh but she fails. Hard.

Points for Nathan. ]

[sketchycharacter]

Laughing at my art, huh? That's hurtful.

[No it's not.]

[peridork]

Is that a band-aid? What good is that supposed to do for a being that's made out of metal?

[sketchycharacter]

It's a drawing of a band-aid. It's symbolic.
