That is seriously one of the cutest robots I have ever seen.

Also, hot damn, dude, that is some pretty impressive company you're keeping in that TOC there. *admires*

Plus Beagle, Duncan, DuBois and Valente, mighty impressive company you're keeping there, Mer.

You know, with cute robots, that's what zombie anthologies don't see as well. So far there's been no cute zombie babies.
