Runaway to the Stars: Page 15

Featuring special guest the twins (panel one).

Transcript Bug ferrets abound. Their faces have stalk eyes with a pupil shaped like a serif I, two triangular fan-like ears, flat frog-like ears, insectoid mandibles, and a "goatee" of two tufted antennae. Talita abandons her cart in the hall and awkwardly wades through them to get into the server room.
Talita:
Sorry. Excuse me...
SFX: HUFF. rr. eef. HF! wuff.
Ferrets are scuttling in and around the room, moving stuff. There is a row of numbered black server rigs taller than Talita, each labeled "Calcery."
Talita: …Cal? Hello?
SFX: huff. Rr. wuf.

  6. Well, Calcery certainly passed the Turing test for me!

  7. I’d like to hear what this room sounds like. All the soft patting noises and occasional wuffs, probably more relaxing than a crowded room of humans lol.

    Ooh yo! Cal is AI! Also, I had a dream about centaurs last night! Not Talita, sadly, but a random one with a very *very* stretchy neck.

  23. DANGEROUSCOLORS

    man that reveal of cal being a sapient ai was great! the fact that he specifically brings up that the written centaur languages arent *net* documented makes for an excellent bit of foreshadowing as well!

  24. Oh, Cal is an AI? neat!

    Wonder what they’ll think of the bipphones?

  25. “eef” – the twins
