About this story, I sure hope will be awesome! I have a little question: one of Akonkid’s earlier stories on this site is “Vanishing Act”, and its concept was by “The collector”. Does this author have any relationship with this character Alfonse Cornelius Quire, “the collector”?
One thought on the new look of the greybots, I love the sexier outfits but I think the control gem would have looked better on their foreheads. Then it could be explained that it was a fiberoptic link so they could recieve their programming by lazer instead of wireing. Of course it could be explained that their heads are already so full of technology that they had to move their modem down to their chest to make room:) That makes you think though what the new greybots human to machine ratio is now, are they becomming more machine than human?

Hi Ghosthand,
Thought I'd jump in here and address this question. When myself and MCTek went over this change for the New Drone arc we did, we drew inspiration from Tecknophyle's postings and fiddled with a number of different looks for the "2.0" version of Franbot....gem on head and lower, more skin exposed or less, etc... I think we settled on the chest area for the thrallium gem to emphasize the gem conducting commands to all parts of the graybot body. Whether that makes them more or less human is a matter left to be explored. As you may have noticed, not all the graybots have been "upgraded" yet so it may be still in an experimental state.

So, that is not just a interface.... it's a thrallium gem. The upgraded greybots now have a MC weapon system intalled possibly? It would be interesting to see the greybot testing or even see them finally sent into action. So far all we have really seen them used for is sex, not that I'm complaining or anything:) Since thrallium is in limited supply (I am assuming it is or there would be a lot more thrallium weapons out there) I'm sure that there probably are not going to be a lot of this type of greybots.
