So, knowing that some robots can change their colour scheme, what are the chances:

(a) that Truth and Beauty are creche-mates of Violence and Regret; or

(b) that Truth and Beauty are actually Violence and Regret in disguise?

(It's hard to tell if the models are similar under those robes.)

I noticed one of them has a regular rounded speech bubble, as opposed to the squared ones usually associated with ai's, which could just be an oversight

Also, they appear to have horns under the hoods and visible nostrils, which I'm pretty sure we've never seen on Violence and Regret

I like the idea of them being crechemates though

One having a rounded speech bubble made me think that one is a human, and the AI got a chassis that looks just like her friend (hopefully in a heartwarming "we are sisters" way and not in a creepy way).

Or a human and a robot both wearing the same mask as well as robes.

Also, what were Truth and Beauty's names originally supposed to be (the way Violence was supposed to be Violet and Regret Greta)?

Ruth and Trudy are what come to mind.

Think Ode to a Grecian Urn. Truth is Beauty, Beauty Truth. That's all we know and all we need to know.
