Dude, they're named Spaceship and Station. How much more differentiation could you need?

Also, your arguement doesn't hold water. A.I.s aren't "designed", remember? They were an accidental creation. We could reproduce them once we'd figured out the combination but that doesn't mean we have any idea what specifically has to happen to influence their personality and behavior. Also, what's wrong with what station did? It's sort of unprofessional but then again it's not like they are peers. I get the feeling that she's only up here because the government wants to keep an eye on an actual, legitimate mad scientist.

Also, you get the distinct impression this is not the first time Station and the Lieutenant have butted metaphorical heads.

You see nothing wrong with blackmail, tampering with personal files, improper use of station monitoring equipment, or slut-shaming?

If it's too soon for zero-G makeouts with hot scientist chicks, I wonder what Marten's views are on zero-G makeouts with hot military chicks?

I don't see how it's blackmail, photos enter the public domain when you put them on the web (where would he have gotten that if not off facebook or something like it?), nope and also nope. I think you might be blowing it out of proportion, it just seems like a minor prank to me.

**PhantomFox** · 2012-02-03, 01:38 AM (ISO 8601)

Well, it's more along the lines that she's being reasonable, explaining WHY she has to do what she does, even if it is silly, and Station is taking embarrassing pot shots at her despite her being nice about it.

Oh, I don't know. He's the computer system that private communications would pass through, and AI are rather infamous for their facility with getting into computer systems that they're not part of and mucking them up, perhaps?

Embarassing her like that in front of strangers just because she tried to do her job. She admited, that her job is pointless, but she would get in trouble, if she didn't do it. What the station did was uncalled for and significantly rude. Source of the photos is irrelevant.

**Kato** · 2012-02-03, 07:09 AM (ISO 8601)

Hannelore has to educate an AI that's possibly older than herself..

Also, Ponies! @___@

**Traab** · 2012-02-03, 08:33 AM (ISO 8601)

Does this make the station a bronie? (brony?)

**PhantomFox** · 2012-02-03, 09:03 AM (ISO 8601)

Possibly, but given Marigold's reaction, SHE might be...

**eee** · 2012-02-03, 09:53 AM (ISO 8601)

GO, HANNELORE!!!

And I think Marigold just had a near ultimate pleasure frisson...

**Kato** · 2012-02-06, 03:28 AM (ISO 8601)

Lasers are overrated... I'm sure medicine is much more complicated and honestly, even if someone was apro with lasers I wouldn't let him touch me if medicine was just hir "hobby"...

But we still got pony. Awesome

**Drascin** · 2012-02-06, 06:45 AM (ISO 8601)

New doc and her love of lasers made me remember Khrima. For that alone I alread like her

.

**eee** · 2012-02-06, 09:11 AM (ISO 8601)

Marigold seems to be quite laser... philic...

Bernadette is a female name, and the character design is female overall.

I'd say it's more likely being implied that medical work basically only comes in spurts, as it's close enough quarters that any new viruses that people bring on board will make the rounds quickly and not reinfect people who already had it and so there's not an open enough environment to get sick generally.

**tyckspoon** · 2012-02-07, 01:27 AM (ISO 8601)

I'd guess most of her call for serving as physician is likely more tending to work accidents- lab errors, physical job injuries and the like. Well, that and doing standard exams, tending to any long-term/manageable conditions the crew has, writing necessary prescriptions (..I'd have to assume Station has a stocked pharmacy or can synthesize drugs or something).. mm.. actually, even if she prefers LASERS (and who doesn't) there should be enough medicine to do on that station to keep a single physician going more than full time, even if most of it is boring routine stuff.

I'm well aware but I was speaking in general terms, whether the person would be a man or woman I'd not want the person to handle me.

I guess tyckspoon has a point, I guess... and for some serious diagnosis I guess they could always call QCverse' equivalent of House...

Poor Hanners had a sad childhood... nothing new. But I'm glad she seems to not bother with it. Brave girl.

**eee** · 2012-02-07, 09:35 AM (ISO 8601)

:(

Hanners has made enormous progress. I would give her a hug, except a hug from a stranger would probably freak her out...

:(

**PhantomFox** · 2012-02-07, 04:26 PM (ISO 8601)

Saw a clip of an actual OCD person while flipping by some afternoon talk show. I'm so glad Hannalore has broken out (at least some) out of the prison it creates.

**Shadow of the Sun** · 2012-02-07, 06:58 PM (ISO 8601)

Hanners is one of the more realistic portrayals of OCD I've seen in fiction, which is nice, because I've got OCD myself and a lot of people don't understand it.

Considering that Hanners was able to bring two guests onboard ( on an otherwise empty flight) with what seemed like a few days notice, it dosn't sound like getting people to and from the station is that big a deal. If there is any serious medical issue onboard ( one that can be handled by lasers and whatever medical AI they have) they can probably either send the patient down or bring a specialist up.

**Ravens_cry** · 2012-02-07, 09:21 PM (ISO 8601)

Hanners, you've come a long way. *small happy tear*

**Shadic** · 2012-02-07, 10:29 PM (ISO 8601)

Which is funny, because I actually preferred Hannelore when she first joined the comic.

Now she just seems so fanservice-y for creepy people, or something. Meh.

She was very different then, basically a different character.
I think I prefer the OCD Woobie to the stalker chick.

That just makes the inevitable reveal all the juicier.

Remember, this is the guy who made a robot boyfriend for Hanners.
