I didn't know I needed this until now... This MUST HAPPEN

Oh my gosh if jeph doesn't I will that's amazing

Hololive can't sue you because in the QC universe Vtubers aren't Vtubers, they are just big tiddied and/or cute actual AIs, nothing V about it.

*bangs on table* JEPH. Please, for the love of all that is holy. Do this. Halloween costumes???

Esca Makes

Bubbles mentioning claws makes me want to see Bubbles in a Scorpia costume from She-ra and the Princesses of Power.

Michael Voorhis

I had to look it up. Neat stuff! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carcinisation

David Howe

does "flower...." and "...flower..." imply a "...flower" though?

David Howe

See, I TOLD you black slab tipping was a bad idea....

Slabbie. What a great name :)

Jax

You can feel Slabbies despair in the 3rd panel.

Mad Marie

Just Chi…

Mad Marie

You could totally go all Swayzee on that slab.

Joe Vandevander

I hate you for making me think about this song, but I admire the way you did it.

iko

🎶Once, there was this slab who Faye bumped into in the street and dropped his coffee cup🎶

Joseph Bonnar

I think it would be a diamond shaped speech bubble, with rounded corners. (Like a "Pedestrian Crossing" sign.)

Alex Borders

Also, I'm very disappointed that the "Mmmmmmmm" is not in a speech bubble - I am desperate to know whether the bubble would have rounded edges or square corners.

Alex Borders

Faye is trying to drum up business for the shop.

TIME FOR CRAB

Calvin Walton

Who? Who?

David Pipes

OMG insta-buy.

David Pipes

Still waiting for Yay to show up... Although why I assume one mysterious character is automatically linked to another is itself a mystery.

Captain Button

There is only one real human left in the QC world. The mystery is if it is Marten or Faye.

Wild Green Memes for Ecological Fiends has prepared me for everything goes to crab.

Marc Ducharme

I just counted and you have to go back seven strips before you find one with a man in it. I approve.

Bagge

Maybe the real cupholders were the friends we made along the way? (turning to the side, grabbing cup from friends, "Thanks mate. I owe you one")

Simpin4Holo

Saw the title and immediately thought of Kronii and Mumei. Was not disappointed.

Ross

Just realized this comic (meaning QC as a whole, not this particular daily installment) takes the Bechdel test and nukes it from orbit.

Bel

I also appreciate that the implication here is that Faye is buying that replacement latte

I want Panel 3 on a t-shirt

Stephen Wells

Panel 3: Slab is embarrassed, they wouldn't have bumped into Faye and spilled their latte if they hadn't been ogling the girls from panel 1.

Absentia

this is making me think that CoD really needs some AI employees. they might be able to understand the monolith.

Absentia

pretty sure bubble's could figure something out.

Krimson

2 watches on Kronii and Mumei eating berries. This comic just keeps getting better. Lol

Stephen Wells

Slab's exterior is impervious to all of Union Robotics' tools. Faye constructs a rectangular hat with cupholder brim.

Yelling Bird

I HAD CRABS! I DIED THOUGH! OH, WAIT, NEVER MIND, I GOT GHOST CRABS!

Chris Vermeers

Daisy Dukes are cut much, much higher than those.

Alex H.

I really like Mumei's and Kronii's outfits here. These are great casual versions of their normal look that wouldn't be too unusual to just see on someone in public.

They did. Inviting, too!

Andrew

Yeah, Bubs could keep Faye under control!

Brian

I’m really glad that Faye just accepts this person and wants to help them.

Darnel D Cooper

Boy,.. that pair in the first picture look real familiar,.. from Anime?

Julia Allen-Hesse

Wait… so what if those sliding trays in windows 95 PCs really were cup holders ??

Andrew Park

Here ya go https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FFjtTZi9n48

Miyaa

Is Bubbles basically wearing a Daisy Duke?

Populuxe

Welp. That's it. I don't understand a single pop culture reference in this strip. I am officially old and in the way. Time to start watching Fox News and voting Republican.

Todd Ellner

Welcome to Nightvale...

Bagge

a claw would also solve that specific problem, just saying

Lucanid Landman

Now all we have to do is somehow get in a cameo from our favorite doggo and war criminal

KCkittysnores

Partly because we felt their happiness when they got the latte in the first place.

J.R. Murdock

Dried cranberries are the best. Aren't they called craisins?

Simon Green

If you zoom in, you can actually see it blinking in shock.

Douglas E. Smith

Is the claw statement a reference to Jonathan Coulton's 'Todd the T-1000?' If not, then it should be.

That's not an AI, that's our goddess Ouro Kronii, Warden of Time

Mitch Megaw

A cup holder is certainly less intimidating than a claw.

Photon

Tijubas!

L

I ship Humming Obelisk and the blue AI in panel 1

Evan

ONE OF US! ONE OF US!

Nicole Widrig

The humming stopped at the loss of the latte 😹

If it is ever explained, this would be among the funnier of explanations

Edward Clayton Andrews

... what if humming slab is a Yay body?

Nicholas Lopez

Kronii and Mumei ❤️

Andrew

Is this all part of Jephs grand plan to build a QC metaverse that vtubers can visit?

William Cole

Now, *I* want a big ol' claw…

Andrew

Worth it for a new customer I hope :)

Andrew

FBSEALH has a very successful livestream, it’s more hypnotic than hypnotoad.

Short reality version: "Muse as a Service". [WARNING: GOING LONG] It's basically the "idol" phenomenon, masked behind a veneer of anonymity by way of animated models rigged to move by input (usually video feeds that recognize facial movement and expression). Where idols "afk" do inspire people (thus, "muse" industry), Virtual Idols (VTubers) have this advantage that livestreams can bring in buttloads of money (superchats), but on top of that you have Videos On Demand (VODs) that still rake in more cash by views (via ads). On top of all the rest of the monetization.

Summer Sudbrink

So I read the Hololive Wikipedia entry… and I still have no idea what it is.

R L

You shouldn't give a hoot about being mad about it.

Andrew L Butula

It looks like the cup fell between Faye and the Floating Black Slab Emitting A Low Hum. Given how strong Bubbles is and how fast she'd have to move to catch it the danger that she might clip Faye or the Floating Black Slab Emitting A Low Hum if they moved unexpectedly would have made catching the latte too risky.

R L

For a while now.

Rich Holmes

So even AIs evolve into crabs?

R L

OH MY GOD THE CANUCK TIME LORD¹. Also: goddamnit Jeph you saw that berries video with Baelz and Mumei didn't you. ------------------ ¹: It has been theorized that the VA for Ouro Kronii is Canadian: * She uses proper spelling for favour * She uses Celsius * Her High School only closed in winter if it hit -40C (if you know, you know) * Her twitter bio has "eh"

Alacrity Fitzhugh

So a whole 'nother Internet thing I knew nothing of... Get off my lawn!

Tamara Macadam

wow faye, rude

Summer Sudbrink

I can’t believe Bubbles didn’t catch that.

Buck Caldwell

OK, so the question becomes: Are those two AIs or Humans? 'Cause if you're looking for an AI, it should probably be Projekt Melody.

Anthony Gaglianese

Pet the birb. Good birb.

Davkas

Now that you've said it, I want to see this too!

Ting

Ah, the birb lady named Nameless Nameless

Constantine Hannaher

sure me... sue me...

Davkas

Ouro Kronii and Nanashi Mumei from Hololive English generation 2.

Buck Caldwell

Venture. Although personally I prefer VShojo to Hololive.

Davkas

Kronii and Mumei!!! I love your take on those two, and I love the occasional Hololive cameos! Also, as soon as I saw the title of this one, I KNEW it would have these two in it. :-)
