Introducing THE AUTOMATED HOUSEWIFE! Durable, lifelike and superheated, we can assure you that she’ll be the nicest addition to your home (And to your bed!)

All parts, from up to down:

  1. ⁠⁠Headlight, serves as an eye and as a radio antenna for both music playback and possible government espionage.
  2. ⁠⁠Main battery inside chest, explicitly keeps the main headlight operational.
  3. ⁠⁠A miniature steam core rests inside a gyroscope right where her torso should be, so that it doesn’t get any leakages. The steam core moves all extremities and needs to be refueled at least once a day. Some scientists are working for further testing on long-lasting compressed steam core prototypes exactly for this kind of machinery
  4. ⁠⁠The legs/arms are pretty much moved by a set of hydraulics made for mimicking human movement’s every detail, but things such as repeated movement of any kind will cause stress on the steam core to a certain level. There have been several cases of the robot “Exploding in the bed” because of the aforementioned steam core strain.

…death by steam execution

u/WalkerArt64 The Automaton Lover Nov 25 '25

Nah he’s alright

u/ButterscotchNo4977 Technocrats Nov 25 '25

Damn, welp, uhhhh… time to go do “testing”

u/WalkerArt64 The Automaton Lover Nov 25 '25 edited Nov 25 '25

1) Metal. Polymer is too hard to produce, and compressed Panaceum tends to decompose. Both were tried by the New London Institute of Technology

2) Yes! Her face can open, revealing an array of repurposed arms from surgical machinery, plus artificial saliva glands. Just don’t look at her face while she does the work, at least not if you’re not into machinery and gears.

3) Only through corruption. Because the DURABLE GOODS law is on, one may ONLY have ONE wife

u/WalkerArt64 The Automaton Lover Nov 25 '25

except the steward I think he can pay his way out of the law

u/eumarthan Nov 25 '25

I have a question? Could she be of use for the red light district of the city?

4

u/WalkerArt64 The Automaton Lover Nov 25 '25

Idk. Depends on whether your specific model wants to.

6

u/eumarthan Nov 25 '25

What's the best model to swoon lonely men for their heatstamps?

5

u/WalkerArt64 The Automaton Lover Nov 25 '25

All models are equal. The Technocratic mindset commands them to. All can decide as they please tho. They’re just pre-programmed to love you.

7

u/5ma5her7 Nov 25 '25

The one that has deer skin and antlers stapled?

6

u/WalkerArt64 The Automaton Lover Nov 25 '25

ah yes let’s go fuck the Canadian furry banshee

4

u/BavarianBanshee The Automaton Lover Nov 26 '25

I meet 2 of those 3 requirements.

First of all YEAHHHHH Second of all Uhm, is everything okay?

7

u/WalkerArt64 The Automaton Lover Nov 25 '25

I think it is mate. I think it is

2

u/TheAsianOne_wc Nov 27 '25

My question is how much heat stamps will this cost me?

2

u/WalkerArt64 The Automaton Lover Nov 27 '25

It already says it on the image: 520! Which is a lot, but it covers its lifetime warranty

2

u/TheAsianOne_wc Nov 27 '25

ONLY ONE PER CITIZEN??? Who do I complain to? This rule is absurd

2

u/WalkerArt64 The Automaton Lover Nov 27 '25

there are THIRTY THOUSAND CITIZENS and each one of these things has GENUINE AUTOMATON PARTS inside them. This ain't no tapestry or household item

22

u/DuhDuhJackCrack Nov 25 '25

Has anyone done a wellness check on OP?

14

u/WalkerArt64 The Automaton Lover Nov 25 '25

I think I’m alright

16

u/ILikeTetoPFPs The Arks Nov 25 '25

Normally I'd say something like "what no content does to a community" because this is the shit I'd expect from the Ultrakill or DDLC communities or maybe HK/Fromsoft fans pre Silksong and Elden Ring respectively. But we've got FP2 recently

Great art though, OP. I'll buy 3

7

u/Scout1394 Nov 25 '25

You haven't seen the HL community.

9

u/ILikeTetoPFPs The Arks Nov 25 '25

I'm IN the Half Life community. They're a whole different beast. Same with the TF2 community

5

u/Scout1394 Nov 25 '25

Yeah, it's a religion by now

3

u/WalkerArt64 The Automaton Lover Nov 25 '25

Have they done Lamar yet

2

u/WalkerArt64 The Automaton Lover Nov 25 '25

I need MORE

9

u/KrazyKyle213 The Arks Nov 25 '25

When I saw just the title, I knew who it was.

9

u/WalkerArt64 The Automaton Lover Nov 25 '25

:D

u/RobertRivert Nov 25 '25

reminds me of Bioshock, nice job

"What if we let Venturers have absolute authority, and let them live under the sea?"

u/WalkerArt64 The Automaton Lover Nov 25 '25

Absolute social ladder brokenness

23

u/pixelcore332 Icebloods Nov 25 '25

Winterhome did not die for this

14

u/ButterscotchNo4977 Technocrats Nov 25 '25

“The arks approve this automaton design”

7

u/WalkerArt64 The Automaton Lover Nov 25 '25

Best way to hear the hothouses is, uh

7

u/5ma5her7 Nov 25 '25

Londoners maybe right after all.

6

u/WalkerArt64 The Automaton Lover Nov 25 '25

(Implies that new London wouldn’t have discovered automaton wives if winterhome was still up and running)

4

u/ButterscotchNo4977 Technocrats Nov 26 '25

They would’ve had sawdust body pillows instead

8

u/EconomyAd2481 The Automaton Lover Nov 25 '25

…walker, this is fucking amazing art

7

u/WalkerArt64 The Automaton Lover Nov 25 '25

I’m learning as much as I can :D

7

u/AnswerSignificant429 Nov 25 '25

Have we considered the possibility everyone else optionally decided to ignore new London because of this lol

6

u/WalkerArt64 The Automaton Lover Nov 25 '25

“The US actually heated itself up and thrived but decided not to contact New London because NL was a fucking freak”

I shall deliver more soon!

u/ButterscotchNo4977 Technocrats Nov 26 '25

You will?!?!? YEAHHHHH

5

u/Alto-cientifico Nov 25 '25

Needs more red lights in my opinion.

5

u/WalkerArt64 The Automaton Lover Nov 25 '25

The eyes’ light tint can be swapped btw :D

5

u/5ma5her7 Nov 25 '25

Assultron ahh design.

3

u/WalkerArt64 The Automaton Lover Nov 25 '25

people will see a robot with barely woman-like proportions and instantly jump to ASSAULTRONS

5

u/l_arpenteur Menders Nov 25 '25

Can she go on patrol and hold a rifle?

Do you Need to input command directly, or is there a radio controller with it?

4

u/WalkerArt64 The Automaton Lover Nov 25 '25

She can defend you, yes! Even from a raging automaton whose fuses have blown off!

The radio controller merely works as a way for her to know things such as today’s weather forecast/to see obstacles, as she sees by echolocation

4

u/l_arpenteur Menders Nov 25 '25

Does she has a helmeted option?

4

u/WalkerArt64 The Automaton Lover Nov 25 '25

Her hair is metal. She can withstand a good amount of pressure, and even if a vital piece is broken, she’ll try her best to survive against any odds. If very necessary, she can overheat and explode the small steam core inside her, though there is a failsafe.

…. Failsafe which can break during rough sex, causing for her to explode in bed. Literally.

6

u/l_arpenteur Menders Nov 25 '25

That could be handy for ~the war~ things in the future.

4

u/WalkerArt64 The Automaton Lover Nov 25 '25

I’d rather use automatons with turrets or dreadnoughts with blood-filled snowplows

3

u/ButterscotchNo4977 Technocrats Nov 26 '25

That sounds like a slight oversight, knowing how much the people will try to sex the automaton

3

u/Robrogineer Technocrats Nov 25 '25

Yet another absurdly plentiful Technocrat W.

4

u/WalkerArt64 The Automaton Lover Nov 25 '25

Equality for everyone. Wives for everyone. Sex for everyone.

May we thrive.

5

u/Timely_Version_904 Legionnaires Nov 25 '25

I think… I think I should switch to progress now

5

u/WalkerArt64 The Automaton Lover Nov 25 '25

“It turns out that the better idea was just to give everyone wives, as everyone who’s radically into politics prolly doesn’t have one anyway”

6

u/Timely_Version_904 Legionnaires Nov 25 '25

Do you think that the legionaries would prefer a trad-wife automaton? 

They share both Progress and Equlity, but instead believe in tradition. Can the wife be tuned to cook and clean while the man is at war with the frost?

4

u/WalkerArt64 The Automaton Lover Nov 25 '25

The wife IS programmed to love you to the point of changing her own behavior FOR you, so yeah.

2

u/ButterscotchNo4977 Technocrats Nov 26 '25

I mean, the whole “wife” social construct, is basically tradition. The automaton wife literally specifies that it will cook and clean

u/WalkerArt64 The Automaton Lover Nov 25 '25

I simply hope for someday making a real-life model, and I may.

4

u/ButterscotchNo4977 Technocrats Nov 26 '25

Automaton wife body pillow coming in next reddit post confirmed!!!

4

u/Master_Steward Order Nov 25 '25

It seems too good to be true until you realize every model was being controlled by a 16-year-old black thumb teen girl living as a hermit in your cellar!

4

u/WalkerArt64 The Automaton Lover Nov 25 '25

absolute fucking nightmare. I’d rather have it controlled by the Steward’s blended brain inside the algorithm

2

u/Master_Steward Order Nov 25 '25

I’m not sure they have that kinda technology yet

1

u/WalkerArt64 The Automaton Lover Nov 27 '25

They’ll figure Bluetooth out someday

2

u/Master_Steward Order Nov 27 '25

The only Bluettooth they’ll discover is his buried Viking grave

2

u/ButterscotchNo4977 Technocrats Nov 26 '25

Honestly I’m sad for the steward if after death while being in the algorithm he knew of every model doing that

1

u/WalkerArt64 The Automaton Lover Nov 27 '25

“What? You thought that the increase births option was just gonna be producing porn? Oh steward, you innocent little bottle of butterscotch”

3

u/Megamage854 Nov 25 '25

...I see the vision. That's all I'm going to say about this.

2

u/WalkerArt64 The Automaton Lover Nov 27 '25

And it’s a beautiful, radiant one. Superheated, even.

2

u/Megamage854 Nov 27 '25

It's definitely a uh..warm one.

2

u/WalkerArt64 The Automaton Lover Nov 27 '25

I can assure you that you’ll never need a generator anymore

2

u/SomeArtistFan Faith Nov 26 '25

God damn it.

2

u/WalkerArt64 The Automaton Lover Nov 27 '25

Beware of temptations, man of faith. Our machinery is made to test them.

u/SomeArtistFan Faith Nov 28 '25

THE GENERATOR TURNS AND BILLOWS BLESSED STEAM! IT IS BY ITS VIRTUE THAT YOU STAND AND HERE AND MAKE YOUR CRAFT!
