I totally forgot on whether robot people could or couldn't eat. Was it firmly established one way or another way back?
I had just assumed they could eat (likely smaller amounts) and use them as biofuel or something.
ALSO: Just a liddle nit-pickering about Hawkins. Let me make it clear, You guys are using him great, and I'm not railing against any misuse or anything, it's more just a detail quibble.
Occasionally a line will describe him as smirking or grinning, when one of the main aspects of Hawkins is that you literally cannot tell if he is, which is part of the joke when he says something offbeat or humorous.
His face is a black blank mask, with an animate white opera/domino/masquerade mask
going down to about... the full bride of his nose and his cheekbones.
My only suggestion would be to say it in a more... open to interpretation manner? Like, like "he said, with the faint air of a smirk" or something like that.
LET ME REITERATE. You guys are great at this and I'm not trying to admonish you guys or nothing. It's just a detail quibble I have.
