[justaphantomhuman]

there isn't enough Tucker Foley appreciation in this fandom which is absolutely horrifying to me.

shout out to my fave techno geek!! you deserve better.

SAY IT WITH ME:

TUCKER FOLEY DESERVES MORE LOVE

[apolloknightly]

Okay so we know the Soldier, Poet, King song by the Oh Hellos right?

Good song v good song.

But alright now hear me out.

Soldier (Sam), Poet (Tucker) and King (Danny)

I'm sure this was thought of before already I'm not even gonna lie to you, especially since there's a chance of an animated work done but I haven't seen any.

Now,

It's a bit obvious on why who is who honestly, but for those that may be new to the phandom or just may want to see a description anyways, I got you.

Sam: I marked miss Ultra recyclovegetarian Goth as the soldier for the fact that being in a good majority of the show, she'd be defending Danny. (Unless he fucked up, then he just gets taught a lesson but he sometimes ends up being saved by Sam, or Sam *and* Tucker).

Tucker: Mister Techno geek may not have a huge way with words but he has a huge way with technology. He's always 99% of the time messing with his PDA. Or having to possibly hack somewhere, I mean he hacked government buildings for fuck sakes.

Danny: okay so for this fuckin, ghost goblin boy I blame the fanon for this one (it's canon in my heart really. It makes sense.). Ghost King Danny. Pretty much the technical ruler of the Ghost Zone. That's literally it.

But I mean yes, technically one could use Fright Knight for Soldier but I mean... C'mon.

Everlasting trio.

:)

Dannymay 2024, now with kitty paws!

Prompts from my AU, also in AO3

Day 22: Song llyric

On a Saturday afternoon, the sun was shining upon the Amity Park Park. Yes they know it is an awful name but it's their park. It was a beautiful day, perfect to hang out outside with friends and family. It would have been the perfect day to relax, if it wasn't for the giant crab ghost destroying everything on sight.

The ghost wasn't aware that it was destroying buildings and trees alike. It wasn't smart enough to comprehend that the small creatures around it were alive and the crab wasn't. This was the case for most animal ghosts, not that it made Danny’s life easier.

Danny, the cat half ghost staring at the giant crab, groaned in annoyance. His current form was that of an orange kitten with dark brown marks moving alongside his body like a cuttlefish mating display. Besides his weird fur and green eyes without pupils, Danny was extremely adorable. His fur and body were shaped in a literal ball of fluff. He was very round and even his eyes were huge and adorable.

That wouldn’t help to fight the ghost but Danny had no choice in the matter.

“Don't you have enough pictures already?” Sam asked the techno-geek of the group.

“Just a few more and a video going around and I'll finish” Tucker said. This was one of the cutest forms Danny had ever taken and Tucker was sure that it would become extremely popular on the internet.

Danny sighed and stood still until Tucker was done. It was a good thing that the filming teen only took some seconds to do it as the ghost crab was getting closer to them.

“I'm done!” Tucker exclaimed cheerfully.

“Nya!” Danny made a cute sound that Sam made sure to capture in her phone.

Now that he didn't have to pose for the videos Tucker makes, Danny ran towards the crab ghost. It didn't take long for the halfa to defeat the ghost using laser eyes and super powerful kitty smashes with his fluffy paws. At the end, the ghost crab was turned over and seemed unable to put itself back upright, Sam took the opportunity and capture the ghost in the Fenton Thermos before anything else could happen.

“Nya nya!” Danny felt very proud of himself.

He was about to turn back into his human form, when he heard a dreaded sound.

“Oh dios mio! It’s the cute kitty!”

Paulina and Star appeared from behind the corner and started to gush about the cute kitten that defeated the ghost. Both girls were fans of the cats in the videos that kept the town safe from ghosts. Though they became fanatics when the cats were cute and had done a lot to try and lure one of them to be their pet. Not that it worked, but the girls were persistent.

Of course, they didn't know all those cats were Danny. The halfa would have accepted to visit if it wasn't for their talks about putting the cute kittens in pink dresses. Danny was not going to be dressed up as a doll no matter what.

As he didn’t want them to know it was him, Danny ran away still in his cute cat form.

“The kitty is getting away” Star pointed at the escaping cat with a sad pout on her face.

“After him!” Paulina ordered. She was going to get one of those cats one day. She was not going to give up on getting one of the cutest kittens ever.

“Mamma mia” Tucker watched dreamily. Danny was so lucky to be chased by pretty girls.

“Here we go again” Sam mumbled, knowing that Danny would hide somewhere in her house. 

The popular girls never looked there.

[quirkwizard]

Hope you're doing well Wizard!

I'm trying to solidify the mechanics of my quirk. Basically, the quirk allows the use to literally communicate with technology, via spoken words as if it were "human," ChatGPT style. From an outside perspective they'd just be taking at a machine, but in the quirk users head there's actual communication. It's essentially technopathy but less direct since it requires articulation with words. The issues come from how I don't for sure know if the effects are within the scope of a quirk. Talking to animals is one thing, but technology might be a stretch?? I'm not super duper worried about practicality/power, since It's for a more comedic OC, but I still want a degree of usefulness, though I think it fits the bill. In short, the user can talk to any tech like it were a chatbot AI, ask a computer to unlock,and would struggle to get their point across, insert laugh track here. For the name I was thinking something like "Geek Speak" or "Techno Babble."

Its "Technobabble" anon again, and I though a bit more on my quirk. I realized how it felt a bit too fantasy, so I came up with a more grounded explanation/means. The user's can convert their spoken words into a form of audio "virus" or sorts, that allows them to essentially run/manipulate/reprogram technology with their voice. (Not really important, but i think it'd be fun if it sounded like dial-up from an outside perspective), but it only works on devices with a CPU. Issues come from how a degree of programming knowledge is needed in order for the user to properly phrase and articulate their commands get the effects they actually want. In addition, higher level CPU would be more difficult for the user to communicate with (so they likely can't ask Tartarus to shut down and would struggle to high end government computer to unlock for them.) Also, only the user's actual voice can trigger the quirk, Shinso style. How would these changes fare in making the quirk fit in better?

Right off the bat, I have to say it: S Tier names right there.

I think this is a pretty neat idea for a power and a lot of the pieces of it could work. However, the issue is that technology is very broad, so you will need to be careful with how you balance it. I would give some examples of what the user can affect, like what The usage of viruses and programming languages implies it can only work on computers, but you may want to clear that up just to sure. On that note, I am not sure about requiring the user to speak programing language to the user. That's either way too hard or way too easy of a downside depending on how exactly you have it work. Like, if all you have to do is say "command" and "execute" or they need to talk to it like they need to talk to Siri, it wouldn't be that hard. So I would either revise that or remove it from the power. Though if you do decide to drop it, it's going to need some replacement. Like I mentioned, if was limited to stuff with computers and processors could help. They can work on a phone, but they can't control a car or anything. Maybe you could drop some of the applications to make it weaker, like they can't reprogram something. Maybe using it too much can mess with the user's ability to speak or understand language, using it too much or incorrectly can hamper the machines' ability to function, or it can cause some mental feedback.

[regarding-stories]

Didn't expect that: "Rascal Does Not Dream of Bunny Girl Senpai"

There are shows on Netflix that I notice, then don't watch at first, remain confused by their descriptive text, then watch after all. It kind of was like this with the amazing Romantic Killer, and it was definitely like this with the Rascal Does Not Dream of Bunny Girl Senpai.

I somehow stumbled about some online comments disliking the series, and let it sit for a while. But somewhere down the line I was casting about for something to watch, and frankly, it completely surprised me.

(I will do some spoilers, but I try to keep it light. Also, looking for an article I wrote about Romantic Killer I found I haven't written one - talk about being backlogged!)

My Little Science Mystery

At its heart, the show looks at consciousness and self partially from a perspective of quantum physics and mathematics, focusing on aspects like attention, observation, strong wishes, parallel selves, and branching timelines. To get such topics into the story it invented "Puberty Syndrome / Adolescence Syndrome," a mysterious condition most people believe to be an internet urban legend. Except that almost everyone that loner and high school 2nd year Sakuta knows or ends up knowing will end up having it - if they're girls, that is. Or himself.

To explain what that is, let's go with the opening scene. Future heroine Mai, an extremely good-looking third-year (and hence Sakuta's senpai in high school), walks around the library in a Playboy bunny costume, unnoticed by most everyone except our protagonist. This seemingly eccentric scene from the trailer has a serious background - an increasing number of people cannot see Mai anymore.

Sakuta teams up with Mai and his hot science geek friend Rio to solve the mystery, digging into the relationship between the observer and the observed from quantum mechanics - or rather the idea from philosophy: If a tree falls in the forest without anybody seeing it, has it indeed happened? (And what sound does it make?) This leads of course to also very practical problems: You need other people to observe you to interact in daily life. And it begs the question - if our reality is a consensus, do we need the acknowledgment of others just to exist...?

The show, behind its science-y techno babble, actually has a lot of heart. The problems all root in emotions, interpersonal problems, and their resolutions are often very dramatic and touching. This is true of Mai's story as of the other ones to follow.

Some things to note

First of all: the series name. Each book in the light novel series has a title starting with "Rascal Does Not Dream Of" - but somehow the anime series got named after the first installment. This is most apparent once the money-making train rolled out of the station - instead of continuing the apparently successful anime series, the very dramatic events of two volumes were packed into two animated movies (mo' money! kaching!) - Rascal Does Not Dream of a Dreaming Girl and Rascal Does Not Dream of a Sister Venturing Out. I had not access to these so I read the books.

The books, in turn, are very readable, and given their content, these two movies are some heavy, dramatic shit, no doubt. The series heavily escalates its dramatic impact towards these two titles. In fact, you could say the books rolled into the anime series are actually a setup of characters and ideas that will culminate in these movies. (Which will also invest you into watching them. Well played, studio, well played indeed.) Sakuta's own Puberty Syndrome, that of his sister Kaede, the mystery stranger Shouko, all of that is set up long before you ever really pick up on it, revealing a series that had a long-term plan.

The books are good reads, solid prose, too. The pacing of these two particular books is kind of dragging, but the author really wanted to transmit the heavy emotions of the protagonist. They certainly had me near my limit! The story of Mai, Sakuta, and his first love Shouko is beautiful, sad, dramatic, and ultimately very, very satisfying - and I don't want to spoil it for you! Just know that if you only watch the anime and I guess the movies, you're probably in for feeling very rewarded and satisfied - after a certain amount of suffering. (Again, couldn't watch the movies, but the book version is already top.)

Having started with the anime, I can only guess that the term "rascal" is what they translated differently when Rio keeps calling him a "pig." Somehow she always insults Sakuta (throughout the anime series), and admittedly Sakuta has a pervy side - but unlike most protagonists he seems to be a bit of a happy masochist when it comes to his love interest.

Anyway, the show and books are well worth it, the cast of characters is built over time and well done, and innocuous background details presented in the start will be the seed of more stories to come. The series is going strong, there are still untranslated light novel volumes, and so I will keep on reading.

Alm rambles about ROTTMNT stuff

So, uh, I don't want this one to end up in my bulk folder, lost forever... and it's ROTTMNT related so maybe someone here might like reading this unedited prattling about some ideas regarding the lost sisters mentioned for Rise. Below the cut is a mess of brainstorming that has zero editing or beta reading or any of that stuff, just take it.

This idea?? nonsensical musing??? also adds Renet and Beebop to the Rise Universe.

Venus and Jennika are both hatchlings at the time of their mutation, the same age as Michelangelo. The two missing sisters were mutated at the same time as their brothers but were unseen by Lou. They were presumed dead by Draxum and his staff after a search of the wreckage turned up nothing. Both were technically saved by Renet in the moment, but when they were left with a yokai foster family, Jennika snuck along with Renet and ended up along for adventures for a while. As a result, she's actually years younger than her siblings, just 15 vs Venus and Mikey's 18 when they reunite.

Map Turtle, Venus; This would be Big Mama's Henchman. Rescued as per the productive teams' reveals. Dark Green. Bog Turtle, Jennika; Rescued by Renet and raised as a time apprentice. Chooses to give it up when she finds the others. Yellow.

The boys find Venus first, as per their previous run ins with Big Mama and her staff. Venus honestly hates the implication that she has anything to do with them until on the fateful 'episode', she makes one mistake too many with Mama and gets the boot- which, with Mama of course means, sent into the Nexus as fodder or entertainment. Her mess up was probably due to the guys, and given that they're aware of there being some connection- perhaps not, it's still uncertain at this point- the guys originally return to try and make amends and help her get back on Mama's good side. They find her in the Nexus instead and cue dramatic rescue and mass destruction of Mama's property.

Venus initially resents everyone, especially Raph and Mikey who insist on trying to form a familial bond with her the moment Drax confirms she's one of the missing two- oh yeah and there were two others, not just the one, by the way, thanks for mentioning that off-hand like that, Drax. Leo and Venus get along like oil and water and loath each other's personalities for being so incredibly similar but opposite. Donnie, however, immediately becomes Vee's favorite, simply because of his emotional detachment and disinterest in such affairs. Donnie ends up being her first friend in the family and the two bond over overly complicated anime they have in common, cementing the friendship. Slowly, via this route, Venus opens up and earns her place in the family some time later by finally ending up on one of their 'missions'.

Venus is stoic and serious to a fault, but geeks out hard about anime and techno dj BeeBop (there he is!).

Jennika's bizarre. She's weird and wild and sort of just inserts herself when she finally appears with Renet. The whole point of Renet bringing Jenni there is to try and find Venus, who wants absolutely nothing to do with anything time-travel related because fuck that chaotic nonsense. This triggers a series of catastrophic events that the family and Renet work together to undo, fixing the timeline through the power of family and friendship!!!! and mystic powers and ninpo and also a time dilation sequencer that Donnie and Renet build together to actually fix everything when the rest of the family's shenanigans fail to do so in epic but predictable fashion.

In the end, Jennika chooses to stay behind, giving up her time lord shenanigans in favor of having her family back. She does so in classic Jenni fashion- by deciding without discussing it with anyone and happily inserting herself as if she never left, much to literally everybody's discomfort but Mikey who absolutely adores his baby sister and her big time chaotic energy. Leo also quickly takes a liking to Jenni and Raph has trouble not viewing and treating her like a baby for how young she is, both visibly and compared to her siblings.

Jennika ends up being a cartoon lover, referencing disney and pixar style media a lot and enjoying fantasy elements in particular- mostly because they remind her of her life as a time and dimension traveller. Jenni's knowledge and whimsy make her a sort of ex-machina for the family, though her rashness and gullibility often counter this usefulness.

Jenni uses a tanto (knife) and fukiya (blow darts) combo and tends to avoid direct combat. Her ninpo/mystic ability is speed / time manipulation, able to speed herself up relative to the world around her, making her knife work extra effective once fully trained.

Venus uses a set of Kama (sickles) with a bow as backup. Her ninpo duplicates her arrows and adds effects to them- such as explosive or ignition tips. Her preference is to not use her ninpo at all, as she struggles with it, having grown into a direct combat role all her life and while she's unmatched as an archer, she resents that this is her true specialty and rejects it for a long time- similarly to Donnie's rejection of Mystic powers in favor of tech, she rejects ranged combat in favor of direct melee.

The male would tense up slightly before looking over his shoulder at the new visitor, giving a soft smile. “A-Ah, thank you! Uh, If you are willing, I-I would love a cookie, thank you muchly Miss!” Koziel replied, his tail’s swaying quickening for a moment.

What are your favorite hangout spots? ~From Kireina Teine

Hi Kireina !

As oddly as it sounds, beside my house, my FC house and my apartment, I don’t really have any favorite place to be in FFXIV, I just like to be where my friends are at the moment we’re together and it’s particularly true with my RP partner, @geisterfuchs.On the other hand, I’m also specialized into “I get distracted and forget that I am in game” sort of AFK or “I am too lazy to do anything today so I’m gonna AFK at this specific spot and will do the specific thing I logged for” (this applies mostly for gathering, I just sit at one node to gather every 70mn because I’m that lazy). So the places to find me are actually pretty random ^^” !

Oh actually, there IS one place I love to go, mostly alone though, it’s deep south in Southern Thanalan, near all the zombies monsters. I love this tower and hope that we’ll have access to more part of Sagolii one day ♥ !

👶- Do they want kids? ~From Kireina Teine

👶  She shifted her weight from one side to another and touched her chin thoughtfully. Her brows furrowed, it was plain to see she was giving it some genuine thought. “No,”

“Not of my own. Though, perhaps in a more distant future, I might think to give a less fortunate child a home.”

[knifewaifu]

Favorite beverage and food? ~From Kireina Teine

Ririsu is a big fan of meat, any kind of meat really. She doesn’t discriminate. 

Koneko is a vegetarian, but she likes ramen and tea! She is not a vegetarian to make a statement, more like a diet. She is suppose to look her best, and is terrified of getting thick.

Thanks for the ask @kireinateine ♥

✏ to learn about my character’s reading habits

Ruri reads mostly history books, she is very interested in the history on this planet and never really learned much as a child since she is uneducated formally. Ruri also enjoys reading about other peoples adventures. She doesn’t go off on her own much anymore since she just stays home making clothing and other things for adventurers but shes happy to hear about what they do out there.

My muse is emotional compromised and is breaking down

“A..Kire? Whats got you so riled up?”He placed soft hands on the others shoulders, looking into her eyes. Cold air set the mood.“Its alright to cry, you just gotta let it out.” He pulled the Au’ri into a tight hug, rubbing soft circles on her back. Ears flat he pressed a soft kiss to her forehead.“It’ll be alright, I promise. Youre stronger than you think, alright?”

Think about my muse: Kieina Teine

Most admirable quality: “She seems like a very positive lady, optimistic.”Most attractive physical feature: “Her eyes. I’m quite fond of green.”Most annoying habit: “I’m uncertain, I would need to become better acquainted with the lady before voicing such an opinion.”Something they would like to do with them: “Nothing untoward, I assure you.”

[startrekprodigyfan]

A mini rant

I really wish tumblr fans and YouTube react channels would latch on to Star Trek Prodigy. Every week I’m reminded that so many of the people who “officially” review Star Trek content in general online have absolutely NO understanding of the young adult animation landscape.

Countless reviews gripe that the episodes are “too short,” while simultaneously missing all the key details they normally pay attention to in Star Trek because their mindset is still that of animation = for babies. They are so unwilling to engage with the media as it’s presented.

They’re definitely not familiar with the way most animated shows are written these days, where larger story beats are given out bit by bit and writers allow them to come together organically, rather than spoon fed to you upfront.

How many reviewers criticized Dal for being “unlikable” only to walk that back after the Kobiashi episode? How many reviewers complained it was “too much like Star Wars” after only the first episode and didn’t allow the show to even introduce the Trek content? Unwilling to give the character a chance to grow because they didn’t like his starting place?

I’m still salty about reviewers complaining in Dreamcatcher “why didn’t they use the transporter?” despite the show literally telling them that there was a certain type of radiation which is notorious for interfering with transporters. That’s the techno-babble jargon these types of reviewers should LOVE to sift through, but they ignored it and dismissed it and called it a “plot hole” because they don’t respect the intelligence of the writers and its intended audience.

And that’s a common theme I keep seeing. Just this past week it happened again with the Borg episode, where the reviewers complained about the Borg not using their nano-tubes ala First Contact despite the show intentionally referencing the end of Voyager. Instead of it being in line with established canon it’s written off as a way to make the Borg “less scary for kids.”

I don’t understand this seemingly collective amnesia from Trek fans who gloss over long standing established lore and only remember one or two things and forget everything else. I thought cataloguing all these details was one of the things Trekkies were supposed to be GOOD at!

Meanwhile… you wouldn’t see this dismissive attitude coming from young adult animation YouTube reactors. The people who obsess over The Owl House, Avatar, Korra, Amphibia, and Gravity Falls would pick up on those details IMMEDIATELY. They’d analyze the characters relationships, they ship the characters together, theorize about the time travel stuff, and be excited to get into a show like this! They’d ask a question, then the show would answer it, and they’d be like “oh cool! Now I understand!”

Where are my 2 hour long analysis videos about Dal and Gwyn’s relationship? Where are all the lgbt+ reviewers excited that Zero is non-binary? Where are all the reactors trying to protect Murf and Rok? Where are all the animation nerds geeking out over how amazing this show looks??? Where are my Diviner simps???? LOL

I don’t know how to spread my love of this show to other platforms like YouTube. I can’t make videos and I’m not gonna become a reactor. But if I have ANY sway here on tumblr… please, please, PLEASE, let other people who aren’t 50+ year old die-hard Trekkies find this show and start reacting to it!

Spread the word! This show is literally designed to get new people into Star Trek. I wanna see it! I wanna see these YouTuber react channels responding to this show with the same reverence and appreciation that they do for Gravity Falls and other young adult animated shows!

I wanna see people making crazy theories about time travel!

I wanna see people loving Dal’s growth as a character.

I wanna see people loving Gwyn’s sword.

I wanna see people fawning over Murf’s adorable-ness.

I wanna see people mothering Rok.

And more importantly… I wanna see people who’ve NEVER WATCHED Star Trek get into this show and say “I’m really loving Janeway, now I really wanna watch Star Trek Voyager too and see the real Janeway in action!”

These people exist. They’re out there. I know they do! I just have no idea how to reach them! So please, if you ever see a react channel asking “what should I watch next?” Please, please, PLEASE, recommend Prodigy! I fear that word of mouth is really the only way to do this now! Spread the word! Let people around you know how good this show is! Let more people find it! Let more people react to it! Help the show find the audience that seems to be completely missing it!

I love this show. I just want more people to get into it and create content for it! I do what I can here on tumblr, but I’m just one person. I can’t do it alone!

[jadenoryuu]

So here I am, bored out of my mind at work, and my brain travels across the ether of zoning out...

And a Crossover idea stuck!

So, do you Phans remember that animated movie that came out in 2009 called "Astroboy"?

[I mean this one.]

It was my first contact with the Astro Boy series and while I never explored the latter further, the movie amazed me and made me care (read: fear, empathize and ache) for the protagonist in ways that any other movie couldn't along with the first "How to Train your Dragon". (That's an accomplishment since after reading/watching many things I unfortunately became somewhat desensitized to plots in general. (╥﹏╥))

That being said, let's get back to the topic:

You all know how the movie premise is that Astro is the robotic replica of Toby, the professor's dead son?

What if we spin a bit of Phandom in it? <(꒪꒳꒪)>

There could be three ways to do this:

The first two have more or less the same trope = (post-movie) Natural Portal Shenanigans make either Danny or Astro cross dimension and Astro has Toby's ghost following him along for fun and only Danny can see him because he's an halfa.

The third take is the Fusion AU =

Danny as Toby dies in the same canonical accident, but the two cores instead of blue and red are green and pink/magenta ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°).

Phantom as Astro. In this Danny and Phantom are two different persons, but instead of "normal" superpowers/weapons, he's half-robot/half-ectoplasm entity (it's different than being a ghost, I still stan that ghosts are the post-mortem manifestation of the deceased's soul and you can pry this from my specter's cold hands) (Meaning: Phantom is not Danny's ghost in this).

Jack and Maddie as Dr. Tenma. They form an amazing team and something so trivial as an absentee single parent in Astro Boy canon won't stop me.

Frostbite as Dr. Elefun. I contemplated briefly Clockwork for this part, but the "supportive wise mentor" fit better with our favorite Yeti than with our cryptid stopwatch, not counting that he has already medical and technological knowledge in DP.

Jazz as Orrin (the robot housekeeper)? This one doesn't fit as well as the rest of the cast, so maybe there's no Jazz or she's in another city as studying-abroad-big-sister.

Sam as Cora. Rebellious girl with wealthy parents, who fights for her rights? Sign her in. (Not counting the teased romance between her and Astro/Phantom, that's only a plus.)

Tucker as "himself" (AKA not any particular role, just one of the orphans of the Surface). Techno-Geek that repairs robots for the Robot Fights and bonds spectacularly with Phantom.

Dani as ZOG. I know it's strange, but hear me out: ZOG was revived by Astro's core and it still keeps part of that energy, making it virtually both Astro's sibling and child! Ring a bell? Plus ZOG is a little shit when it's able to, so it's only a natural decision, really! (≧∇≦)

Cujo as Trashcan. Yep, the trashcan dog deserves the puppy counterpart.

Now that should be everyone! ...Or should it? Oh! Right! The Villains:

Freakshow as Hamegg. Who would be a better showman/ringleader than the insane circus owner who controls robots ghosts?

Vlad Masters as President Stone. Of course it was going to be him. Old friend of the protagonist's father? Check. Power hungry? Check. Wants the protagonist for one of his machinations? Triple check.

Plasmius as Peacekeeper. Pink/Magenta core explained! Who would have thought about that? (≧∇≦)

Skulker as General Heckler. Vlad's second in command and enforcer of his commands, it feels only natural.

There are so many other characters to assign, though at the moment I can't come up with what to do with the robot trio of the Robot Revolutionary Front or Valerie Gray, but this discourse made me want to re-watch the movie, so I'll probably add something tomorrow.

What do you Phans think? Is this worth considering for Danuary? (≧∇≦)
