That's so fucking funny

Me realizing that if Fastolfe or Elijah gets their feet on 21st Century Earth, they'll probably die(metaphorically AND literally)- so the "future guy gets sent to the past" cliche wouldn't work on Asimov fandom:

I love how half of the time Daneel is like 😮 while Baley's like 😮‍💨 during investigations lol

[backstudio235]

AHHHHH a being Daneel created himself questioning him back??? And it's ELIJAH??? Dang I need to go to a corner and cry

Imagining Daneel creating a data piece of Elijah after his death and his becoming Demerzel- so whenever he needs to make a decision or when situation goes out of hand(or when he "feels" solitude), he always asks his data piece of Elijah for the answer.

The sad part is, Daneel himself knows that whatever 'Elijah'(quote quote) tells him back as a reply is just his figment of imagination. And in the end of each choice, he'll come back to questioning whether he's basically justifying his actions by putting Elijah into it.

what is your most random asimov headcanon?

mine is that humaniforms and other robots are actually quite protective of each other (we already see evidence of this in Robots and Empire) and that other robots will chide Daneel for not taking better care of himself/skipping diagnostics/putting himself in danger.

[backstudio235]

I need Baley coming across Medieval Earth era memes and Daneel confused as hell next to him looking at these people doing the strangest things

[backstudio235]

Ikrrr

Me first reading the book: OMG does this Fastolfe dude have some kind of plan behind his robots??? Like what does he intend to do with all these super sike power robots danggg

Meanwhile Dr. Han Fastolfe(and maybe Dr. Sarton): hahaha robots go brrr

Wdym dr fastolfe ain't the most iconic man in the robot series

[backstudio235]

HAHAHA "daddy" Fastolfe

Tho I can imagine him educating Daneel on stuff that couldn't be programmed

"Now try triple flexing the pepper, Daneel"

*Daneel absolutely slaying the flex and making it look like beautiful art as he would do*

"Good-"

Now give me impressed daddy Fastolfe

Wdym dr fastolfe ain't the most iconic man in the robot series

[backstudio235]

Hhdjehroduebkxhh lol

[backstudio235]

Dr. Han Fastolfe;

Sure, he may be goofy looking, but you don't know what's behind those goofy ears of his.

Wait what?

Reading Robots of Dawn, I'm feeling embarassed in place of Gremionis. He literally makes all types of embarassing situations u can have with others.

[backstudio235]

I need an 21st century OC character in robots of dawn timeline, just screaming at both Aurorans and Earth ppl bc of how sad their life has become. Extra credit if he/she's a robotics engineer.

"We didn't make robots for this chaos to happen" vibe totally acceptable.

But then the oc would get sanitized to death before even getting to screaming part.
