I hereby request to join ‘Face in the kitchen. Might as well make myself useful around here since my monumental fail with the juvenile plesiosaurs.
S'posed to ping the people you're talking about. I'm sure 'Face would love company in the kitchen, since her gears are getting whiny.
Darksheare could help with the robot in the kitchen idea. He'd have articulated arms reaching down from the central range hood/pot-and-cutlery hanging device, each with its own scary-looking implement.
Imagine two shiny stainless steel arms descending over the cutting board, preparing vegetables, while a third sedately stirred a simmering pot.
