Well, she is metallic to start out with, but woman-shaped. In "For Science!" (which takes place about a month and half before this) she is described as a 6 foot tall metal woman. My vision of her there is very much a tall, slender but curvy woman, but very obviously robotic.
I've recently realized she goes through at least one more body change during the story because after "For Science!" the authorities could very well be looking for her. Given the storyline I'm writing, I'm guessing during the rebuild she gets a more human-looking body that possibly somewhat resembles her original human appearance. I think she'd still be visibly robotic in some ways though. And also I think Brendan is kind of crushing on her when she's still metal and shiny.
Also, thank you for bringing this up because it just made my brain explode with a really dramatic storyline and omg.
Oh, and part of the problem is I have not really explained the concept of her body being replaced several times, because I kind of only figured it out after "For Science!" And it didn't occur to me that she'd need to be less... metallic until I realized she and Brendan were going to be a Thing. Which is kind of new, too. Up until a week or two ago I was kind of thinking "friends with unresolved sexual tension" because I really do not do canon pairings.
