227. What if robots didn’t exist? (Dracoverse Part 1)

Long ago, Randall Radbot got his heart broken when he asked Mamma Jamma out to a school dance. Instead of dealing with his disappointment, Randall imagines an alternate universe where robots don’t exist!

Art by Ana Stretcu, Graphic Design by Karen O’Keeffe

Lessons include: We don’t have to share all of our painful memories, but we still have to learn to live with them; having a crush on someone doesn’t mean they will have a crush on you.

We’ll learn about Randall’s lost memories, see more of Mr. Beard, and share more adventures in the Dracoverse in the next story!
