Brooks ([livejournal.com profile] brooksmoses) wonders why it is that feminine robots always seem to have prominent breasts, and yet rarely have hair. This is not equal-opportunity fetishism here, people.
    Brooks says, "Example: http://www.cgnetworks.com/gallery/gallery_image.php?image_id=208"
    Whitney says, "I /am/ amused by the Star Wars book."
    Tesla ([livejournal.com profile] oneironaut) says, "Hmm. Well, Eurydice has hair."
    Tesla looks. I think I recognize that robot.
    Tesla says, "It's interesting that her nipples are flat-head. I would have expected phillips head."
    Whitney says, "Tesla, you are /such/ a geek."
    Tesla cackles.
    Brooks says, "And, really, security Torx is probably better than Phillips."
    Tesla says, "Just something that wouldn't result in her breasts getting all scratched up every time someone needed to take her nipples off."
    Eastman ([livejournal.com profile] annwyd) says, "This is a very strange conversation. I'm cowarding now."


1487 words today, which seems to finish chapter 2, in which the plot does not so much thicken as actually begin. (1487 plus I think I added a few phrases to earlier already-written stuff that aren't in my linear count.)

Also:

    Whitney says, "I'm developing the strange suspicion that this is the sort of book that begins chapter with quotations."
    Tesla says, "Oh dear."
    Whitney says, ". . . probably in Spanish."


Which I may at some point use to justify picking up the Pedro Calderón de la Barca book on my stevelist, under the principle that yes, it really is work-related.

And yay, [livejournal.com profile] ibnfirnas says I didn't fuck up anything really highly visible. Proof of the three-hour theology conversation is in the writing.
