Fantastic Adventures vol. 5, no. 4 (April 1943)
Almost perfect as these things go; incredibly sexy but with a kind of get-out clause that she's metallic or otherworldly so it doesn't count. Her, let's say "central portion" is human, right?

I've reread: The Automatic Detective by A Lee Martinez
A very American story about a corrupt city of the future that exploits the poor and disenfranchised
It takes a stubborn ex-military robot on a temporary visa to take on the hard boiled detective role and expose the festering boil at the top of the pyramid.

Lots going on here. I love the mummy creature and the fact that she's so calm means she's in charge of it, right? She's sending it out to menace us, from the top of her tiger-head furnace. Wait did that rhyme?

@floofpaldi@mindly.social#PennedPossibilities 640 — MC POV: Tell us about the good habits you have.
Alexios: Good habits? What are those? Pfft. I wake up early. I usually sleep alright. I'm f*ckin' good at being on time to meetings with my chooms and various clients. And... Yeah, that's probably about it...

Reactor#PennedPossibilities 639 — Does your MC have any pets?
None of the recent stories have pets. However, dogs and horses are mentioned, the latter for a needed referent. Think satyr. I will resist describing actual horses in a story until I need to shock the reader from their assumptions about what the reluctance world really looks like…

@floofpaldi@mindly.social#PennedPossibilities 639 — Does your MC have any pets?
There's a ginger cat that lives in the gang's warehouse and Alexios is the chosen one. He adores that man and he's all over him, all the time. Alexios, in turn, loves it. He's such a softie for the little furry baby.

I love her and her very impractical dress (she didn't wake up this morning expecting to escape from giant clawed hands on a white horse) and the submerged heads are bonkers. This rings a bell, but I don't know if I've featured this one before. Anyone?
