Here we go with the continuing adventure of Sam getting his room 'jacked' by an Alien Robot.
I decided that this would be as good a time as any to have that big awkward family discussion that you have to have when an alien robot rents out a room in your house.
As it's demonstrated slightly in this chapter, I'd also like to take a minute at this point to explain my stance on Transformer Gender: "acknowledge, but deflect".
IE: "Yes it's significant, (not just aesthetic) but it's really none of your business."
I think the idea that they have gender for a reason (even if they don't know what it is in some continuities) is very intriguing; but I don't think there should ever be an "Official Explanation" as it would probably be confusing, and polarize the fandom. This way, every fan can handle "Robot Gender" on whatever level they're... comfortable with.
Other than that, the only point I really feel I need to make is to warn you all not to expect this level of speed normally (in terms of posting frequency), as I already had this chapter half done when I posted the "Prologue" and "Part 1".
Hope to get the next one done soon, though!

Thanks! I thought it would be an amusing way to not handle the concept of Robot Gender.

Probably the only comic about new roommate in which we WON'T have any "18+" action.

With all the other delightful gag possibilities I'm sure no one will miss it!
(Or at least I hope they won't, cuz I'm sure not going out of my way to put it in... )

I think I'll portray them as being really good/close/"childhood" friends, but I don't want to muddy the waters by trying to portray a "robot romantic relationship". Then it would be a Robot Romantic Comedy. ( A Rob-Rom-com?)
Though that doesn't mean that the human characters won't speculate about it at some point... (Mikaela: "don't you think they'd make a really cute couple?")

Heh, that would be funny. I had planned on giving wheelie some more dialogue in pt3, but the way the script is going it looks like there's no room.
why? you'll see what I mean.

Oh god. *rotfl*
And I happen to agree with you about Transformer gender. There is a reason the roles exist, but to each his own.

Most likely. Sam's being a bit of a jackass.
