The thought had occurred to me, if only for what seeing those two kissing would do to poor Jake's brain.
kaBOOM!

I wonder what it would do to Jake's brain to see Rhonda and Assissi kissing?

About the same thing Jay Naylor's "Better Days" did to mine.

Ascii isn't biologically Rhonda's brother, and they're about 10 years apart, so their relationship is very open ended on how they, and Jake and Rick, handle it. After all, Ascii might have been on his own for 4 years, and, even though he has his memory back, those 4 years should still have a lasting impact on his personality regardless. They could see each other as biological siblings, to not related at all, to step sister/brother. Who knows?

I'm not going to comment on Rhonda and ASCII's relationship right now, but I will say that Jake thinks of ASCII as an adopted son, and will have no choice but to think of Rhonda as a daughter, since he does give bir--
Uh, hey!
Bonus art!

and that's just Jake's reaction.
I'd hope for either the use of the machine indicated above, or a HEAVY, HEAVY sedative. You thought the cervix had to stretch...

You are an evil, evil cartoonist!
That's one of the reasons we like you so much.

And I figured Rick would either be the creator, or mother of Rhonda (seeing as how he's only interested in males, and would want Jake to remain one, and Jake goes either way, and wouldn't mind as much if Rick changed, and as Rick is the easier of the two to change as he already lacks a body). Hah. Well, we'll have to see.

I always thought Jake would be the mother because rick lacks certin :cough: equipment. it would be easy(er) to build a mechanical way to store sperm etc and have a mechanism for delivering it then it would be to create an artificial womb.
well, no harder then to build a gender swaping ray anyway....

Actually I think building a gender swapping ray would be considerably easier.
Once you have a way to reformat (or at least artifically mask) chromosomes (DNA...) getting the system to reboot would be a cinch.
Now the main problem would be all that 90% pre-existing biomass,
Saudra has a time machine which proves going backwards is possible but in this instance all you need is forwards so *snap*.

Have we ever heard that Rhonda was their biological child? Could Jake and Rick have built another android sister to Ascii?
The whole story of how Rick and Jake come to have Rhonda... while having known her as a teen and possibly having her own self present from time to time... THAT is the kind of story I would like to envision when the Umlaut Alum are returned to activity.

Well, I don't LIE about my comic.
Of course, I never did finish that sentence...

Hmm. He does seem the type to give birthday presents, doesn't he?

But would they be from Dad, or from Mom? It would be kind of confusing to say it was from Dad, since she'd have 2 Dads, but most Birthday presents would be from both parents, so maybe they would say From Dad and Dad or from Dads, who knows?

One could distinguish between, say, Pop and Dad.

Or Papa Jake and Papa Rick, for that matter.

Currently, many children with 2 parents of the same sex use those types of distinctions. I know of a pair of lesbian parents who are "Mum" and "Mama".
