Yeah, I was thinking that too. Glad it wasn't just me!

David Howe

You know how it is with that personality type - they believe they can keep spinning the plates forever, right up to the point it all comes crashing down, and long after they should have seen the time had come to run, but didn't....

David Howe

Bit confused about the whole process anyhow. So far we know that there is a foamed crystal lattice and memories are stored in a diffuse manner, but equally, we know that a AI can be offloaded from a fried chassis to a pc then re-uploaded to a new chassis (because this happened to pintsize in the early strips) and edited for new hardware etc.

Captain Button

The whole comic has just been a setup for her capture.

Buck Caldwell

Um. What if this was a trap? Did Our New Friend here just walk into a jail cell? I don't like this one bit.

Dane Filemyr

We've found a witch... may we burn her? -_-

Chris Gallaty

Would you have preferred "Jam it" instead. Most human exclamations make little contextual sense to A.I.s given their etymology....

David Howe

They don't need the whole CW, just the bit with the AI drive in it - Bubbles could easily go fetch just that bit...

David Howe

Next stop is the CW's AI drive, to see what CW remembers of the event, I guess.

David Howe

Depends on how the storage works but yeah, the data could be broken into a hundred pieces and hidden all over Bubbles' mindscape

Captain Button

All those moments have been lost in time, like tears in rain.

Lucy

Unless Corpse Witch kept a copy of the memories.

Oh, I thought there were no traumatic events and it all was a Corpse Witch fabrication to control Bubbles.

Czarzhan

That's where I went, too.

Ian MacLean

Yeah, we haven't had a clear explanation on why the data couldn't be backed up somewhere else. But I could also see the story going forward with Bubbles just having to deal. All her guys died, right? *It's in #3060: She keeps the name to 'honor their memory.'

Jordan Springer-Rogers

I'm really hoping the monster wasn't the memories.

Ray Cornwall

Uh oh.

Carl Fink

Mysterious Creature With Red Eyes might be making a false assumption here. I would expect her to back up the data before deleting it.

Brad Knowles

And did anyone else notice that the skin color on the ambisexual agent is virtually exactly the same as the room color inside of Bubbles' memories? Hmmm....
