The opposite of love is not hate, it’s indifference. The opposite of art is
not ugliness, it’s indifference. The opposite of faith is not heresy, it’s
indifference. And the opposite of life is not death, it’s indifference.

Oh, sure.  Bring up the exploding horses to win your argument, Jacob.  That’s not fair.  Also, trust the journalist to be the only one who notices that Fumiaki has skedaddled…

↓ Transcript
Girii: You can't kill him just because he might...
Jacob: Explosive. Horses.
Girii: ...Okay. Maybe he is a little crazy.
Jacob: Look, I don't have to kill him. But we should restrain him, and not trust any of the tech he's invented...
Roger: Uh, should we keep an eye on him? Because I think he ran away.

  1. God of Cows says:

    Well it worked, didn’t it Jacob?

  2. --jt-- says:

    Seventy-five percent of the people he’s talking to here is doc’s tecnology.

  3. Jerden says:

    Come on Jacob, it’s not like you trusted him in the first place.

  4. Skur says:

    Damn, I had a long backlog to read up from and I didn’t see the thing with the Fumaki-cyborg coming.
    Now I wonder if I’m just unattentive or whether I can put it on the early morning headache.

  5. Ryan says:

    I was thinking Fumaki was a clone rather than AI, so that was news to me.

    In Fumaki’s defense, the exploding horses did apparently perform their intended function!

  6. Jerden says:

    But Ryan, there are saner ways!

    Of course, they’re all really boring.

  7. Gin says:

    I like the fact Jacob stated flat out they could restrain Not!Fumiaki instead of killing him; at least from how I interpreted his early character in this story, this is a major change from how he used to be. Awesome character development!

    Also Jacob’s smug look in panel two is hilarious, for some reason.

  8. Ilmarinen says:

    Explosive horses, huh? Big talk from a man who used to carry a case full of superplagues around.
