#Wendy Xu is good!! The METAPHORS the COMPOSITION

[magpiesbones]

The Infinity Particle is VERY good actually

cute little robot rom com that is honestly. Really sweet.

ALSO. very fun and interesting way to subvert the ‘robot falls in love and becomes human’ trope bc like. Kye is still a robot!! The being a robot part isnt a metaphor for being unfeeling it’s a metaphor for being a child which is VERY fun and interesting actually. Everyone is also on board with the ‘robots become people sometimes’ thing from the beginning which is also pretty refreshing. Everyone agrees that this robot has personhood EXCEPT the abusive parent-figure. This is one of the defining ways that she’s presented as a shitty person actually! The robot has personhood outside of falling in love and the falling in love is actually mostly not related to the personhood except for how he likes that she does in fact respect the personhood (objectively attractive trait to have).

sweet book!! Cute art!! Delightful robots!!
