Hold on, are they shopping around for a synth-muscle body, or are they looking for a full transfer of consciousness into a biological brain, too? Robot's "transfer of consciousness" was just plopping his head onto a new body. As a matter of fact, unless I'm mistaken, Robot is a little cpu that can fit inside a toy mouse.

Also implying that maybe you could transfer a human consciousness into a robot body. Or upload it into a simulation. Or really annoy the gods of death by transferring their pet fire elemental/medium into an immortal robot platform?

I think Kat will look at transferring conciousness into a synthetic brain and bypass the CPU entirely. I think that's what's implied when in this panel.

And afterwards he should upload another update, as a penance for uploading the wrong one today. etc.

so, the court specifically wouldn't like where kat's work is going, that's interesting. i wonder what they would do to stop her though? i'm pretty sure elimination's off the table. take away her workshop and notes? cut her funding? does kat have funding?

She has robot volunteers that gather any junk she needs, I suppose.

Kat has virtually unlimited funding. She's got a free space to work and whatever incredibly ridiculous high-tech equipment she feels like asking for, either directly or in the sense that she can get materials to make it. That's definitely something the Court could threaten. Not to mention her parents, who live in and work for the Court.

i mean like obviously her stuff comes from somewhere but like does the court give students money for research or what

Does the Court *even* use money?

The court certainly has money (its mentioned in traveller that Paz's family got lots of money from the court), but I don't remember ever seeing money in the court itself? Went to check the haircut chapter and there was no money seen exchanged for any of the transport or for the haircuts.

The robots live to move and work, why would they want money for hair cutting or anything.

with a seemingly self growing city of materials and robots that provide willing free labour I am not surprised if they only need money for the really abnormal stuff

Considering the utility of the court's huge army of unpaid servants that literally live to work it's no surprise that they might take issue with Kat helping them become comparably fragile and exhaustible flesh.

Or you know, the reader is reconsidering because the supposed lies are becoming increasingly verifiable.

Actually, this is all Robot's secret plan to motivate the Angel to work harder. A heretical kind of day at the Court. (Post-chapter bonus page is a conversation with Ocelot.)
