I like that the other robo-person has red irises because of course the eye colour slider has all possible options available and if you randomize the setting you're as likely to land on something that doesn't exist outside of JRPG protagonists as something mundane.

No, red eye girl designed herself deliberately, not random. Kat constrained the randoms to within human norms.

I suppose the question of mind/body duality is pretty much solved when you've been transferred from one body to another at least once.

Maybe I’m just reading too much into your post, but I don’t think their dialogue here is particular revealing. I would expect humans who got a new body to talk about said new bodies the same way.

We've already had one that looked like Annie for a while but no one was around to judge her for it so who knows!

You'd think the robots would also be given a primer on human etiquette. Then again, humans don't even get that all at once, so...

Well historically for religions that's supposed to be God's job to inform them, and God is a teenager so she doesn't really know anything about that either

At the same time, they've probably picked up on much of it just by being around humans. On the other hand, they may not see themselves as human, and thus might not consider the rules important among themselves.

There's a whole rabbit hole here waiting to be explored.

Admittedly the track suits are probably more just the kind of utility clothing the court would have had a lot of lying around for the exbots to appropriate.

It (hopefully) will not go that way but they still make a good visual shorthand for "My spiritual beliefs are definitely NOT A CULT"

Depending on how far you want to go with it, we are seeing a potential new nember being paired with an attractive, outgoing person to lure them in...
