Great job summarizing the consequences of Anna's citizenship while also showing the differing perspectives even among her fellow artificial life forms. Everybody had a distinct voice and personality.

It occurred to me as I was writing it that none of them are remotely alike physically either, which I hadn't exactly planned but works well to establish how diverse artificial life is in the Parodyverse.

I especially liked Fleabot's Afterschool special quip. And I see that organization with the near ominous initials is still a player in the robosapien rights debate.

I obviously don't like to rush developments... but I get around to them eventually.
