Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson for October 12, 2022

It’s a shame Metalgold will never hear her Roomba’s voice again, thanks to sound being impossible in a vacuum. But at least she’s set it up so that she can receive the error messages it tries to send to the app.

Marigold and the other unicorns will either be disappointed or jealous.

what do you have in mind, robotic Marigold?

Most humans are happier with a project. Narcissism, though, is its own reward.

First Roomba on the moon!

They are just mooning about I see, like the glasses as without an atmosphere the sun is brutal!

They could reflect on their own awesomeness.

How will they recharge their batteries?

The robot unicorn on the left either has three horns or two very large ears.

I knew it! The moon is made of green cheese!

Hard to start a new society with a bunch of ego maniac. But maybe Robot Marigold and Robot Phoebe will be able to do that.

Maybe if they all linked hooves together, they could form a makeshift moonbase. That way they can both be productive and still stand around and reflect sunlight.

Well, here’s an idea. How about a game? Half of you form a team called the Unibots, and the others form a team called the Decepticorns. Then play laser tag (with actual lasers) until only 1 team remains. Can any of you transform? Maybe throw that into the mix.

If you only reflect light instead of shining yourself you might as well hide your unicorn under a bushel……..

Robot Phoebe makes a good point, actually.

Organic or not, a unicorn’s concern is beauty.

Unicorn!

Since there is no atmosphere to carry sound I must assume they are communicating via radio transmission. (The speech bubbles are for us).

Where is Robot Lord Splendid Humility going to hide? A crater won’t cover him.
