Just about Lil Hal - did he end up with an actual body that looks like red Crockertier Jane or has he always been either shades or part of ARquiussprite? And is he evil or something else?

He is not actually in a human body it’s just a lil Hal human design the got super popular in the fandom and Hussie put in the comic.  And I wouldn’t say Lil Hal was evil, more too smart for his own good or diabolical.
