Had a similar experience, twice, with chatting and getting making friends with someone before seeing what they looked like, both were not what was expecting, but one turned out into a close relationship (for awhile) but fortunately the other didn’t get beyond ‘friend’ level
Or she could be a brain in a jar hooked up to a vehicale.

Unicorn,aisle 5!

Well that kills my theory, I thought Aimee was going to turn out to be Collodi’s daughter. Did they ever give her a name other than Whimsy Corp?
That is her name though. She doesn’t really need another unless she wants one.
Yeah, what if she looks like some kind of deranged Muppet?
On the other hand, she could look like a younger version of Shaenon…
That’s another joke set-up that I never get tired of 🙂
He can hope she’s a “her,” I suppose.
Well, he can hear her voice. So she’s probably a she.
Or a pre-teen boy, or a eunuch
Or mold spore. Round these guys, you never can tell.
Or an A.I., built by a mad scientist, who likes nerdy, computer savvy geeks….wait, never mind. That’s just silly.
AImee?
Oh! Maybe it’s that nice Jewish boy.
We don’t know if there’s been full disclosure on Nick’s part. She could be mildly surprised.
Any other universe, more than mildly. Here, she’ll either think it’s the coolest thing ever, or be an undercover spy for some agency or another.

Y’know, Nick’s just setting himself up for the same kind of problems he had with his relationship with Dr. Lee.
It’s almost like he’s a socially maladapted individual with underlying psychological issues that perpetuate a cycle of self-toxic behaviors.
Yeah. Good thing he’s not that.
