Meat Bad
Someone must have jinxed my ass because half my face is on fire, despite the pain medicationAnd unfortunately I am nowhere near as based as my characters so ain't no way in hell I'm writing like this until I pay a visit to the toof choppa (hopefully tomorrow) Apologies once more for the flesh is indeed weak as ...
Chapter 66: Forearmed
Made quite a few changes to the previous chap as I wasn't perfectly satisfied with Mike's conversation with Wakako. The result is effectively the same but it has been changed enough that I'd recommend a skim just in case.-----Michael 'Magos' SobronovAs much as I may have wanted to tinker the day awa...
Chapter 65: The Lady of Westbrook
Minor edits and general improvements spread out across previous chapter alongside a few added lines for extra flavor, no grand change in direction though.----Michael 'Magos' SobronovIt was barely morning when the expected message blipped its way onto my Agent.[Rogue: Got an info request about you from Wakako. O...
Chapter 64: Chooms and Calls
Me: Imma wake up at a reasonable time and write before its literally tomorrow.Brain: How about I wake up at 4pm instead?Sigh.Anyway, minor edits hath been cast upon previous chap. Nothing too grand but the first part should be just a touch less messy now.That aside, enjoy away!----The MysticThe patient smile remained o...
Chapter 63: Cyber Gonks and Future Stonks
Words are still coming all kinds of scuffed but man's gotta grind. -----Michael 'Magos' SobronovHours passed as I aimlessly drove across Watson, doing my best impression of an emo teenager and staring off into the distance, or as close to it as I could considering I was at most times surrounded by buildings...
Chapter 62: Cyberpsychosis, The First Step
Michael 'Magos' SobronovThe lab Regina had secured for the project was an out of the way thing, located in the basement of a failing cosmetics clinic that was kept in the black by the Fixer herself.Thankfully, I did not need to interact with the owners or their employees as another entrance was conveniently pos...
Chapter 61: Psycho Hunt
So much for posting at a reasonable time :P (I did start early enough but the words just refused to come to me sadly)Small edits done upon the previous chap.I find myself curious, what would you most glorious lot think about involving Ciri from The Witcher at some point or another? (It wouldn't happen for a long as...
Chapter 60: Assassination Aftermath
A chapter in a vaguely reasonable (debatable) time of day? Impossible!------Michael 'Magos' Sobronov"Here you go boss!" The perpetually grinning fat man working the kebab stand shoved a massive steaming portion of synthmeat into my hands."Thanks." I muttered absently, and mentally tipped the man...
Chapter 59: Best Served Cold
Some editing was heaped upon last chap, mostly rewording with minor logical additions.-----The MotherThey landed on the soft concrete of the sewers one after another, leaving no sound behind save for the creaking of servos audible only to the augmented and the slightest shudder in the filthy stream of water running by ...
Chapter 58: Planning Payback
The CorpoFor the first time in recent memory, she felt herself come awake not to a blaring mental alarm, but with a comfortable and deliberate slowness.Unfortunately, such feelings were utterly unnatural for her, making her ingrained reflexes kick in as she suddenly sat up, her eyes snapping open as she took the cleare...
Chapter 57: School Time
Minor flow fixes to previous chap but nothing truly notable.-----Michael 'Magos' Sobronov"Not one for small talk, are you?" I asked after a good minute of silence passed.The half asleep, barely present V shot me an annoyed glare before holding back a yawn "'m tiiired."Her relief at finally s...
Chapter 56: Connections
And we are so back!Ngl, I'm a bit miffed at writing so late in the day again but while I did manage to catch some rest for my poor grey matter, my sleeping schedule decided to flip so hard it started generating its own gravity so until I manage to magic that back into something resembling normalcy I'm afraid la...
Chapter 55: Raffen Rabble
Usual touchup on previous chap, nothing too notable.Right then, le serious time again.Previously the plan was for me to post only on monday next week and then take wednesday and friday off, but if I am to be perfectly honest with you all, after the writing of this chap I'm starting to sense a familiar burn of fatig...
Chapter 54: Badlands
Right then, opinions seem to be as close to unanimous as can be reasonably expected so it is thus decided: There shall be some supernatural elements that shall be kept extremely low key and vague and explained exclusively through the lens of Mike's perspective of it all.In essence, we are doing anime or close-to-an...
Chapter 53: Triumphs and Theories
No real notable changes to last chap.As for this one, imma need some actual feedback from you but I will expand on that at the end of the chapter as to not ruin your enjoyment of it with premature spoilers.Please do give it a look though, it would be most helpful to me.Another thing unrelated to that is that next week ...
Chapter 52: Corporate Deals
Only minor rewording done on last chap.-----Michael 'Magos' SobronovDespite my initial rush to get ready, I did not immediately march up to my surprise visitor, and instead primed all the hidden turrets I had under my command before making sure she wasn't just playing bait for her fellow Arasaka rats while ...
Chapter 51: Setting the Record Straight
Did some small word shuffling last chap as usual, only "real" change would be namedropping Saigo (the trafficker) when he is talking to Jugo for proper continuity with this chap.-----Michael 'Magos' Sobronov'Regina really outdid herself, huh.'Despite myself, I flicked the replay on for the third...
Chapter 50: Getting out of Dodge
Only minor rewordings and grammar tweaks were bestowed upon the previous chap.This text has been approved by the local pyromancer! Please disarm the firebomb now Aliya.------The GangoonShe felt completely numb as the four of them that were still alive rushed out the apartment building, so much so that she barely even r...
Chapter 49: Breakdown of Negotiations
Changed the previous chapter around quite a bit, the flow of it should be much better now.I'd say I recommend a quick skim over again just so there is no confusion on this one.Gimme that sweet feedback for I wants it!-----Michael 'Magos' SobronovClickBoom!The charging Maelstrommer is thrown bodily back as m...
Chapter 48: Maelstrom Meetup
No big changes this time, just some minor grammar stuff.Random reminder that we do in fact have a discord, and if you are already there but don't have access to the patreon channels tell me here so I can give you the appropriate role.------The flimsy elevator gates clapped shut behind me as I stepped out into the m...
Chapter 47: The Reminder
Last chap got its customary edits.The conversation with Senko got a bit of a touchup, mostly to make it seem like they are used to talking to each other, and not like they just met yesterday.A bit of general tuning to Mike's inner monologue across the whole thing.And I toned down his apparent excitement at Jugo'...
Chapter 46: Scheming Tyger
Apologies for the super late chap, my sleeping schedule is reaching such high levels of incomprehensible I am starting to genuinely believe the author curse is real.Speaking of the incomprehensible, the daily sacrifice of subpar tea to the resident eldrich abomination will continue until morale improves.-----Michael &#...
Chapter 45: Interesting Customers
Usual minor edits upon the previous chapter, the conversation between Mike and Kiwi got a bit of a touchup but save for being a bit more serious and "professional" the outcome is the same.Big ole' thanks to it that shall not be named for helping me out as always.------The RunnerFor the nth time this morning...
Chapter 44: A Magi's Work
Very minor tuneup made on previous chap, added the detail of V living in H12 (Which is the megabuilding directly held by Arasaka near the waterfront) but that is mostly just minor flavor.Big ole' thanks to the dread Aliya for helping me bounce my thoughts about, as always.*Full cyberware list is at the end of the c...
Chapter 43: V Interlude
As is pretty much tradition by now, previous chap got some edits handed to it (some changes become apparent only after I sleep on them for a bit, it is what it is.) mostly minor wording stuff and the like.Notable changes are: V didn't immediately get overwhelmed and managed to hold her own to a respectable degree, ...
Chapter 42: Lizzie's Take Two
Some minor edits were made to the last chap (as requested I did give the new apartment a bit more detail but still didn't go too pedantic with it)Big ole' thanks to my gremlinoid assistant for waffling into my ear as always.Didn't know where the fuck to stop with this one so you get a beeg chap today. Prais...

Chapter 40: Wakeup Call
And we are back in business!Edit: The eldrich abomination used time manipulation to once more influence the scribblings. Woe!------Michael 'Magos' SobronovThe half-formed Militech cordon disappeared behind us, the streets turning into a bit of a blur as Rogue's driver took the long road through Japantown ju...
Chapter 39: The Militech Job (Part 3/Finale)
Praise be to the gremlinoid as always, for her suggestions. You get to live one more day.Not particularly novel to those who've read the original last chap, but this felt much, much, more satisfying write, and made more sense pacing-wise.In case you missed it, the previous chap has been edited considerably, please ...
