That Moustachio can get air-sick makes me so sad.
Speaking of bad spelling, shouldn’t that be “Aerial Conveyance?” (Unless I’m missing a meaning.)
For Moustachio, “Ærial Conveyance”.
“Arial Conveyance” is Nick’s alias for when he has to go undercover.
When he has to go underwater, then it’s Ariel Conveyance.
…and “Aryan Conveyance” is for infiltrating the Moon Nazis. (Not to be confused with “Arian Conveyance,” for infiltrating a supressed form of non-Trinitarian Christianity favoured by the Vandals.)
Well, Dr. Lee *did* quote the Tempest at Nick, particularly the “Thou wert two delicate to obey” line…
“Helvetica Conveyance” I think
As in “That Nick is one Helvetica Conveyance.”
But when Nick says it it comes out as Hedgevetica Conveyance.
I was wondering how Mustachio was holding up with the reality blindness epidemic. Everyone probably thinks he’s just a statue…
When Annex One was vacated I think he was considered some kind of obsolete appliance, slated for removal. Can’t find the strip, though.
That would be this one: http://skin-horse.com/comic/friend-made-a/
And then when Skin Horse was reinstated, he had become quite attached to Hitty. Literally. http://skin-horse.com/comic/said-unity-3/
They might think he’s just an animatronic robot programmed to greet visitors. Which is not far from the truth, come to think of it, just ignoring the fact that he’s wound up, not plugged in.
…I missed you, Hitty.
So say we all 😀
Yay they’re back!
Hope they’re Sanforized…
Almost there Hitty. A swing and a near miss by a single letter.
Robots under the rain? I guess Moustachio is safe since brass doesn’t rust, but what is Hitty made of?
What is Hitty made of, made of?
What is Hitty made of?
Cogwheels and hammer and substandard grammar,
That’s what Hitty is made of.
snerk
I suppose that the third line *could* be improved, but it cannot be done using our current understanding of science.
Just wondering about them the other day and here they are. Fast service!
A bit disturbed at the notion of Mustachio puking up some of the contents of his head. Machine oil? Wax flakes?
A bit more disturbed that Hitty even has an “air-sickness compartment”. Who gets to clean that out?
Dr Lee?
Somehow I doubt she’d agree to that. Schlorping out brains is fun… but that…….
I was thinking she might have been the one to install it: I doubt it was original equipment back when Hitty was a Deathmatch robot.
And if she installed it, then it’s undoubtedly self-cleaning.
Now they’ll have to endure wet dog smell for the rest of this adventure.
I’m not sure that even Sweetheart can endure that, but given the condition of the basement, I doubt any of them is going to be smelling all that pleasant.
Well, she is a genetically engineered Canadian superdog: maybe she smells like maple syrup when she gets wet.
A little maple syrup might be OK, if a little weird. 30 pounds of maple syrup, however, might still be unpleasant. Maybe if she smelled like maple bacon it wouldn’t be too bad.
And now that I think about it, if she smelled like any kind of food, Unity would surely have devoured her by now. Not that Unity isn’t attracted to things other than food, but you know……
