I'm curious as to where the two AIs in your crew came from, physically. R2 is easy enough - just handwave one of these - but a humaniform robot body's a bit more difficult to come by this early in
Fenspace. (Not impossible, just difficult... and worthy of an origin story.) Did Jeph build Nene himself?
Now for the important question: Should we add Jeph and the Starbug to the FenWiki, or are you still tinkering with them?
Edit: Oh, yes - do you want Nene or R2 added to the list of known Hacker Underspace members? They're a natural fit for that group,
but might not want to join (or be known to have joined, if either or both do).
Hi, Geo was pretty easy, although obviously there's more than just an oversized toy there. Add one Macintosh Mini (my main machine, actually, which is
named Geo), and handwave that. Geo doesn't go by R2, he feels that's disrespectful, so most of us just call him Geo (G Zero)
Nene would be a lot more involved, but suffice to say there were a couple of handwaved tools used, that also got used in making Starbug 1. One of the big ones is a handwaved paint sprayer and a decent quantity of liquid latex, and another (older) Macintosh
that was stripped down, all attached to a crude mannequin frame.
And sure, go ahead and put it in the FenWiki, and also Nene at least would be joining the Hacker Underspace.
