You knew a little bit of this and a little bit of that always focusing on what is currently more profitable. The aug market is always jumpy and unpredictable. You recall that one time when it was a fad to install CR-234 Hyper multichromatic Ires , everyone had glowing eyes that changed colour according to the customer's mood. Miriann & Deue got shafted when it was found out that augs had spyware in them.

"Dr. Blank, Are you interested innnn-n-n-n-n elven, Orcish, or-richuman p-error, error, e#%#$#" for fuck sake, it can't deliver shitty ads correctly. You opened its control panel to fix that stuttering cunt setting your race to ...

Just a plain middle aged human, nothing wrong about that. At least you aren't some pixie, poor guys; even today they are a prime target for drug gangs due to a plethora of chemicals emitted from their tiny wings. From aphrodisiacs to outright psychotic chemicals, they got it all. During the earlier days, they had their wings locked tight in case but now they are all freed up. You heard stories about those 'pixie farms'...better not to spoil your mood that early.

"Blank, Blaaaank. I know you are still there. Open up!" Great, it was your landlord. One of the few androids you hate with passion, always slimy, money grubbing bastard. He's out for your rent: 6000 pons are too fucking match for an awful place like this. There is no better place to live near your street clinic sadly. You'll just have to endure this robo-fuck.

A T-ven Mesh will be perfect for you; It will fool your landlord, mess up with your heat sensors. His scannings are technically illegal buuut you can't do much about it. As much as he continues to be an asshole, he keeps anyone away from your apartment. You made a couple of enemies here and there across the years. Nothing too too serious, you hope.

"Your rent, what else?" Rott was one of the earlier android models, he doesn't hide his ugly muckface under artificial flesh or some cheap holo projector. In fact, you think he is proud of it.

You had the money, but it was for buying fresh parts from your one of your many suppliers. Drit visits you once every few weeks with good Miriann & Deue augs. She is relatively new in the business, her prices ain't bad either.

"I'll stick it up your pipehole tomorrow." you replied, the door is still closed up.

"Listen up B&^#$#&&....fuck##$#^&&" When he is angry, his voice module gets all croaked up forming incoherent noise. It isn't available, only bought as used parts. He is too stingy to buy one for himself.

"...Blank, just give me my fucking money." he readjusted his voice for the billionth time manually.

"You won't pull anything funny on my module, right? I swear if you fucked up with me somehow..."

"Come on, have some confidence in your local Jakk doc . I have dealt with a lot of androids like you...well, prettier than you." At first you didn't like this term coined by your younger customers but eh, anything to appeal those neon Mohawk, YeeDam licking punks. You opened the door, your eyes piercing through his skepticism.

"Alright, alright. Don't get all cloochy on me, Blank. I will come down your clinic at night." He made way for you to leave.
_______

The Vairo-S (or Vas) district was initially built on the holy grounds of some elven city as a one big fuck you from the founders of New Egalith, a mining mega corporation called Vario Neodolium . Centuries old architecture mixed and mashed with various modernized and as augmented-heavy cultures, mostly humans and orcish. They are the source of this anarchist spirit of this shitehole. The only good saving grace for this district is being a literal dump of anything undesired from the surface (that is another fuck you for elven religion by the way). The far east of the district has huge machineries constantly digging more spaces for future trash. It is not healthy to live next to this cancerous deposit but you don't really have much of a choice. Luckily, medicine is getting more advanced to cope with our most erratic nature.

It ain't all that bad, most of the corporations just don't care about implementing more strict rules. It contradicts with their pon-hoarding mentality. Not to say there is zero order of course, you always wonder where all of this money is going to? will they ever have their share of control and pons?

The answer is sadly quite obvious.

You hated cars and everything about it, you would rather waste 20 minutes walking to your work than driving in congested streets. Flying cars isn't allowed underground mainly due to the trapped toxic gasses floating above so everyone is busy flipping the bird and spewing what new urban blorrup of a cuss they come up with.


1/2

Of all the aug drugs, YeeDam is the worst. It is licked out of special synthesized meat which had been chemically treated to drastically increase one's reflexes and perception of time. The YDs is a local gang here, high 24/7 on the drug. They are often aggressive and unpredictable, itching to instinctively lick anything remotely fleshy.

They just happened to be waiting for you close to your clinic.

16 of them, armed with old punks with nailed bats and the occasion magnetic piss for a gun. They extensive lingual and oral augs, not done by you... to crude for your taste.

Those kids are beyond salvation always their stupid skin suits. They are this close to cannibalism. juuust this close.

"Eyyyyyyy Jakkk"

"Jakk?"

"J-jajakkk!" They started to drool behind their leader. A psychotic pixie by the name of Lolomon, she had tattoos of tongues all of over her petite body. Her chrome tongue is all tall as she is.

"We came yesterday...and then yesterdayy AND ANOTHER YESTERDAY. You weren't there Jakkky..."

You used to have a gun, one modeled T-402 Thermopulsating Modulator handgun. A gift from one of your earliest customer, you did that son of a bitch of hell of an aug job that day. Sadly, You lost this Magahab relic to the bitch of Vas and her lapdogs. 'Unauthorized possession of Magahab technologies' my ass, You had some few contacts in the police department so you didn't get locked up or anything. Damn it, you miss that gun.

You reminded yourself to find another substitute soon, you might as well find yourself dead with your beautiful array of customers.

The YDs simountously laughed at you for some reason with their tongues forming a noticeable bulge in their throat.

"We're so, so, soorry Jakk. Come here, i'll..yeah...yeah.aaaah~" her eyes were rolling to the back of her head upon gently licking your right cheek. There was nothing erotic about it. You shoved her aside, already smeared in her thick saliva "Just... sit right here for second."

They actually sat down like little puppies while you turned the lights on. "What will it be for today?"

The pixie hovered all the to the ceiling with her small head tilting to the left "Look at poor poor Baxine, I told her a no nonnonono to X-Lick, she didn't listen."

"X-Lick? What the hell is that?" You never heard this brand before. It sounds like a drug but you are not so sure. Baxine, a human girl, was too quiet compared to her crazy buddies for a good reason...

You saw an engorged black tongue filled with tiny wiggling parasites on the fleshy bits while the chrome part of it was heavily tarnished with a green substance. She looked miserable, barely unconscious at this point.

>Tell me EVERYTHING you know about this X Lick, right now
>Straight up, she is going to die without Lunkcare [Call a Lunkdazrm care team , pay 1000 Pons for it ]
>Nice job fuckos, She is as good as dead. I can't do shit. Get out of here.
> Alright, alright, alright. I dealt with worse [Think of an immediate and drastic plan to save her]
>[Thoroughly examine her first before anything, specify]
>Write in

Might as well explain how rolling will work:
There are 'normal' rolls. which are not related to the augs themselves. Then we got aug rolls:

They depend on the brand, each having its own multiplier.

Arlochyi = x7
Magahab Tech = x5
Miriann & Due = x3
Lunkdazrm Med = x3
A.R.K.= x3
Gulatrag Inc. = x2
Cribcribs= x1

Example: A 10 A.R.K operation will have a d30 (10 level x 3 multiplier) while A 10 Cribcribs will have a d10 (10 level x 1 multiplier) and so on.

When it comes to mixed operations, they will be added together a single roll.

Example: A 10 A.R.K + 20 Cribcribs operation will have a d50 roll [10X3 + 20X1]

Everything is best out of three.

>>2850824
>Tell me EVERYTHING you know about this X Lick, right now
>How long ago did she start taking it? (It'll give us a timeframe of how fast it has to dig in)
>[Thoroughly examine her first before anything, check her pulse, check to see if she's breathing normally, and check her eyes if the're dilating normally to light]

>>2850870
Ah ok, so the more we know about an aug brand, the greater our chances of success/lessed chance of failure.

"Dunno, we got it from a Scav for 20 pons four days ago." The sole orc of the group spoke. Scavs or scavengers hunt for anything in abandoned buildings, factories, city states and so on. 99% of the times, they bring useless junk that other corporations are not even bothered with. However, your city's trash heap trash heap is a gold mine for scavs from all parts of the world. They dive in, bring in some shit and sell it hundreds of miles away.

You laid the girl on the table. Fuck, she is no more than 18. What you have gone yourself into? Her pulse was arrhythmic which contrasted with her slow breath and cold hypoxic skin. Her eyes had a lagging response, she couldn't focus on anything more than a few seconds. The rest was normal.

Those kids are too useless, they only described it as white-ish green paste. That's it. As shameful as it was, you searched in your busted old Vairolink for this drug with zero success. There is someone who might help but you really don't want to call her

>[Call Ace, let her patch you to her boss]

You didn't like to deal with that particular dryad, She is so ruthless for a gang boss but you didn't have a choice since the kid had licked it all. You can't treat what you don't know...

You called Ace, a elven street rat, she knows her way around the district as well as in the surface, her boss is interested in gearing her up with some neat utility augs. You literally bumped into her while she was cloaking. That;s how you got to know the ProtoStags gang.

You helped her gang ONCE to de-tag some Magahab tech only to be hounded by the bitch of Vas and the rest of the police department. "Who's this?"

" Blank, I got uh... a problem." You briefly explained the essentials for her.

"X-Lick, huh? Hang on." The line went silent for 5 minutes before she replied "....that's a 500 year old drug . used to be made in Boss' original city state. Hold on just a-"

"Listen to me, boy..." Its the boss herself. oh fuck "Is this girl alone or not?"

Hmm, tell the truth and fuck them over. Or lie and fuck ourselves AND them over.
>She had a bunch of punks with her
If there's one thing I've learned is that when the person you don't want to fuck with is asking you questions, you answer them as honestly as possible.

>>2851155
"How many? Are they armed? "

"15. Bats and shitty magnetic handguns. " You whispered.

"Good, good. I am sending packers in about 30. Keep them busy while my boys retrieve the body."

"Body? The girl is still alive."

If she was in front of you, Boss would have been smiling "Mix Vryol oil with 2 drops of tetracyclokilate and a cup of warm water, don't inhale the vapours."

You knew damn well what she is up to, a body stiller . It halts decomposition for three whole days if done correctly. its other name is Jectipack as in inject the body stiller in a living heart and pack up the corpse to wherever.

You already had this ingredients. The real question is : Are you up for the task?

>Be polite as possible "Pardon my Orcish Ma'am, But what does this X-Lick shit do if the answer is that of all things? Is there really no cure for it?"

There's no point in warning them since if they had any sense of self control then they wouldn't have bought those drugs in the first place or buy something that extremely fucked up.
If anything, we need to be prepared to GTFO ASAP, both to get out of the crossfire and just in case they try to off us.

"Who gives an orc's ass about a cure? I intend to extract it from her body, scrub and genemod it then i'll reintroduce this drug again in the streets. Don't make this too hard for you."

Now to think of it, there is no way the X-lick wasn't exposed to the constant radiation , other chemical wastes and swarms of mutated insects in the dumping site, Scavs usually process whatever they get from there. Here you have some kid straight up licking it despite all of the shit you mentioned. Just brilliant.

Death was part of your profession. you rarely fucked with your customers on purpose. Hell, you wanted to save her life. Circumstances are against you, however. You could try to justify your deed but in this day and age, what thin line of morality and decency has been replaced with rampant degeneracy and profanity.

The body stiller was ready in five minutes. You gave the girl one last pitiful gaze before injecting it. Her finger twitched in protest, the girl moved her lips to say something. Her engorged tongue made her sound like a retard spewing nonsense. You didn't need to hear them anyways, less guilt for you.

One last wheeze and that's it. She is dead. The body stiller has been spreed across her circulatory system.

_______

Your clinic wasn't that much to begin with, a simple reception room , a small dressing room , a half functioning bathroom and your operating room plus a small storage room. Molly, your secretary will arrive by tomorrow. She's a good kid always keeping her head glued to some E-Books.

You bought the clinic off a really old elf. He wanted to retire after 249 years as a doctor. Initially, Elves have very long life expectancy. most die early before 100 thanks to mysterious elven specific carcinogenic virus: Corpoa Villinium or simply the blight. No one know what triggers this virus or how many times will it take for its surges to kill an elf. The average estimation is 4-8 blight strokes. It is a medical mystery partially circumvented by augmented advancements.

Damn it, why are they taking so much to arrive? You are getting anxious from the punks outside. It got worse when the pixie went straight inside hovering behind your back, her magnetic pistol at hand "Hows our girrrrll, Jakjak?"

>She is under anseth- sleepy sleepy drugs

"Dead? dead heahaha SHE IS DEAD BAXINE IS DEAD" The pixie pointed her gun at your head "YOU KILLED HER COCKSUCKER, WHYYY JAKKK WHY?"

If she hasn't blown our head off or the others haven't smashed our skull in at this point we ask her if she and her crew want some time alone with the body for grieving purposes.

"BYEbyyye, JAKK" She was about to pull the trigger when she sensed a presence behind her.

It was Ace , She wore an overbaggy jacket, looks like she also changed her hair style and her Alrochyi drone. Nice Morha energy katana on her back, this bad boy can cut through anything with ease. A bit too edgy for your taste though.

"Heya Blank, What did i miss?" She stick her bubble at the bottom of her drone. The YBs immediately pointed their weapons at the elf "WHO THE F-" all of them dropped dead by a barrage of well timed phase shots that was shot from the reception room. It was fired from the packers, they were all in black with more Morha weapons. The proto stags preferred to use these sort of energy weapons. Morha was the equivalent of Arlochyi in weaponry. Their biggest rival is Magahab, both constantly sabotaging each over covertly.

You sat next to Ace in the reception room as the packers were cutting Baxine into more manageable cubes. At least they brought a clean drone with them. How generous. She switched the channels for a while until she settled with the sports channel

"Aw, The Obsidian Giants are losing..." You never really paid attention to this Lokk sport. Every couple of years, they would change the rules of the sport. From what you are hearing, it is returning back to its violent roots with more carnage and blood and the screen "You want us to dumb those punk for you or what? Their parts can fetch a good price for you."

"I came here actually to give you 10 stacks, boss' orders. Cash or chip?"

"Chip." Both forms of currencies have their pros and cons, you like to keep things in between. You took the P-Chip and uploaded it immediately.

"A gun won't be a bad idea for a guy like me, you know. The bitch of Vas confiscated my goldie." Of course you could have picked the mag handgun on the floor but they are so shitty, you need something more reliable.

"Not a problem, I'll call Majesty. He will send you a piece today." You heard about this guy, An arms dealer who has a hard on for modded traditional weapons. His prices are way too high for a guy like you, good thing you got Ace for this one.

You could have asked for more but there is no need to push your luck further. The packers had left the operating room leaving everything cleaner than before. All the corpses (and guns) were packed and secured, you didn't feel like asking Ace to leave the other kids behind; Enough blood money for a single day.
______

Two hours later, you finally got a customer. It is a slow market, sometimes you get jack and shit, others it will be quite overwhelming for you to handle. Your customer was lanky human in his late twenties,a club goer by the look of his clothes. Everything about him was fake; watch, neon earrings, Taknha leather shoes...the list goes on.

"You are that blank guy, huh?" he asked, nervously.

"Yep, What will it be for today?"

"I..." he lowered his voice as if someone watched "...want to aug my leg. If you catch my drift, doc."

>It isn't a 'leg' is it?
>Tell me what you want exactly
>I am low on Miriann & Deue augs, your options will be limited right now. Come back later.

"You know...my leg."

"..."

"It is my limp dick, happy?" he finally admitted it "I want some of that chrome stuff, thick and meaty with loads of cum. The whole package."

It is going to be one of these days, isn't it? You asked him to undress while you set things up. holy shit, that is one shriveled up little thing, it is almost a glorified clit. He must have great sex life.

"Any specifics on the brand or anything?" you always ask this question; some of your customers don't really know what they want.

"I'll take anything , Doc."

You showed him the options available

Assuming the pons aren't coming out of our pocket and are in fact what we'll charge the poor sap for the hardware and the procedure of course.

It took you 3 hours to install the aug, the hardest part was implementing his genetic code into his new chrome balls, Most customers don't mind it at all. They just want to cum but in case of this poor guy, he might as well have the chance to have kids.

You waited for his to wake up. He was still dazed when you spoke to him "How do you feel?"

"I..i..ohhhh, i like it already!" He didn't aug before so he is experiencing the 'aug rush' where his neural system is getting to know this new extension. Sometimes, the feedback can fry your brains to mush if you royally fucked up. It happened to you once. Poor girl...

"Come on, test them out." you played a holotape of your personal android porn star, Xorza. He is getting a stiffy alright. All signs are nominal, good.

The guy was bursting with happiness, a new chance with life at the low low cost of 1000 pons.

You can't really tell if it is day or night naturally. There used to be giant hole in the surface with light coming over ....it was clogged up when the other districts complain of the shitty smell of good old trash dumps. Anyways, it was getting late, your android landlord didn't show up just yet.

a couple of things to note:
-Rating depend solely on the roll itself if that wasn't obvious
-higher familiarity means less incidents to occur.
-FP is gained by two ways:
first of the two is getting high ratings, high amounts of FP can be gained up flawless rating OR getting high rating with after performing an operation which required very high level than our current familiarity of this brand

The second method is to get abysmal rating (w/o incidents) as we 'learn' from our mistakes. Not the best way to earn FP

question: should the FP gained be only restricted to its source or all FP gained are in one big pool for you to spend freely on whatever brand you want?

>>2853892
>>2853897
>>2853898
Someone did come by, you thought it was Rott. It wasn't. An orc with a small package for you.

Ah right, your gun. You didn't feel like opening it now. You'll do it tomorrow , Your landlord wo-

"You sure? It ain't pretty."

"Do i look like i care?" Fair enough. As any early android model, it is very easy to shut him down temporary. You brought the two aug pieces, almost ready to go....

Just how this voice was still functional was beyond you, More that 83% of the audio string files were corrupted. No wonder he was stuck on being a cranky son of a bitch.

"Is it d-whoa whoa whoa! Didn't i tell you not to replace my fucking voice, Blank?" Rott grabbed you by the shirt, fuming with anger.

"I didn't. this is your factory zero voice. Run a diagnostic check if you want."

"I...oh my. I'll check...goodnight, Blank." He left the clinic visibly confused. What was that about?

We finally got into the meat of the quest today. Stopping here for today. thank you so much for playing!

OH wait I didn't get hit with the Alzheimers, I got hit with the stupids. I should've looked at the top of that original post.

To answer the question: I think that we'd be better off with a big pool to spend freely. While source restriction does give off the feel of working with what we're experienced with. It also can also fuck us over in the worst possible manner, because we decided to go with a second best skill instead of our main skill and thus, putting us in a "Dead or Dead" situation despite the situation before it not being a life or death situation.

To add my own dumb idea, I'd suggest a blend of the two where we go with the first but if we get more than one FP, half of that acquired FP joins the FP pool
As an example: If we get say 4 FP from using Cribcribs, then 2 points would go into Cribcribs and 2 would go into the pool to be spent freely

>>2854042
i am fine with any of these three. I will pick the one you prefer the most, anons.

>>2853943

quick question. What is FP? Best I have is Fate Points but it could be favor.

>>2854533
Familiarity Points is my guess.

>>2854550
>>2855341
so we good on using half and half, yeah?

>>2856380
Yeah. Makes the most sense, we learn from a certain group, and allow us freedom to put in some FP in other things we may want to learn later on.

>>2856380
yyyyeeesss?.?.? Still not sure what FP is yet or used for exactly

>>2856403
Familiarity points
>>2848084

>>2856403
FP is how familiarity we are with certain gear. Higher the FP in a certain group the easier it is to work with it.
Hope this works you anon

>>2856403
alright. continuing.

You closed up your clinic with you tri-Vario lock. Your clinic is any easy target without proper security. The idea of a bodyguard always came to mind, too bad these motherfuckers require a butt load of pons. Is it worth it? of course, if you got spare cash.

You took your leftovers along the way, some stale wormnoodles with ganglio fries. The thing is, more and more animals would go extinct due to loss of habitat and constant pollution/radiation. The price of chicken, fish and beef had skyrocketed in the last two centuries. It became non porfitable for the food industries with more and more growing poor population, they got slowly replaced by more and more insect based products. The flavor didn't matter anyways; it is all artificial and gene modded. It is much much cheaper for the masses that way.

You arrived at your sweet apartment which had its lights constantly flickering. God damn stupid AI, it is really pushing your buttons.

One quick fix later, Your Vairolink beeped. who would call you in such a late hour?

Drit

"Gola, Dokka . Couldn't come today, Bitch of Vas cracking on ma Koods." Your supplier didn't sound as mad as you thought she would be. Every day counts in this business, her constant optimism might be her downfall

"I dealt wit the stags, It was messy as hell. You watch out for them." She was younger than you, Drit was like the orcish daughter you never had. "Got any Neverland in stock?"

The Neverland augs were provided different kind of sensual pleasure. A whole new series of VR augs which can stimulate all of your senses. The 5810 model is not the latest version but it is the most common.

"Yeah, yeah i got you, Dokka. 2 days. Peace" she ended the transition.

You finished your leftovers then went to sleep, hoping for a better tomorrow.

_________

8th of November, Saturday.

________

You woke up two hours late all thanks to your AI. At this point, there is no use keeping up with that bitch. You tore it down in frustration, you will buy a new one. Eventually.

The cops were all your streets your street. They had their cars blocking the way. They rolled out a Med-C Van with them as well. In today's world of crime, non private medical services got integrated with the police force. Their services were abysmal compared to Lundcare but hey it is free (sort of ). Your ex cop neighbor from the first floor , an elf by the name Tobaz , watched the scene with his cup of Coffica extract. You respected the guy, he spent 30 years in service then bam, one discharge because he did the right thing.

"Morning doc," he greeted you in his robe with today's protonpapers tucked to his side.

>Morning [be on your way to the clinic. No need to watch]

"Worse, Tickers."

"Oh..." Poor girl, Imagine walking down the street minding your own business only to be surrounded and paralyzed by 10 or more specialized drones while they harvest your augs. Those fuckers are truly the worst, you never deal with them no matter what they offer on the table. Tickers usually leave you alone, after all, your augs can be a source of income to them.

"You, shitface, come here." One of the cops noticed you. He thinks he is all high and might under his exo suit. He had a drone which had IDed you without any permission of course.

"This girl..." His drone projected a hologram of her "You worked on her before?"

"Maybe, I can't remember all of my custome-"

"Don't play dumb with me." He easily lifted you a few inches above the ground with a titanium fist. One of his co workers leaned on the exo cop "Easy big boy, put him down."

"Here is the situation, Mr. Blank." said the other cop, a short half-elf with a M&D face aug... must be one hell of a scar behind this pseudo mask. "This is the fifth victim in a span of 2 weeks. Tickers are jizzing all over with their new drones. Be a good citizen and install these trackers in your future customers. It will make it easier for us to nail down the tickers."

The police issued aug trackers were in fact a somewhat outdated nanites. You pulled out some before in the past. To your average joe, it can't be detected.

Two freaking customers were waiting for you. Three actually, one had left according to your secretary. Thanks, local officers of the law.

"Good morning, Dr Blanks. Here is your morning Orgo and a fresh baked Monsoon straight from home."

"You are spoiling me too hard, Molly. what can i do without you?" You started to eat your breakfast "What do we have here for today?"

Dryads are a genetic puzzle to modern science. There is no telling if your baby girl will have few arboribus tissues here and there or a full on walking tree mode. Their digestive, reproductive and nervous system are nothing like elfoid organs. Some augs are impossible to install without some real consequences.

Ms. Hameykett had most of her skin covered in light barks. Her head has lost any hair and/or flowers associated with it. All has been replaced with twisted, thick branches.

"Sorry for keeping you waiting, ma'am. I had a run in with the cops."

"It is fine, dearie. Your secretary had kept me company. See, i used to know the previous owner of this clinic..." She kept on going for a while, you didn't stop her at all out of politeness.

Well, she didn't mind at all. Infact, she told you that she had never drank or taken drugs. You were surprised. Time to start working...

You had to pull up some of your Dryad only tools from the drawer. Anesthesia must be quite precise or it will fuck up the dryad's systems real bad. The real kicker was the spinal injection, you held your breath the whole time injecting aug receptors in her spine, they will prevent any artificial cancerous growth in vital spots in her body.. When that was peacefully done, you had to implanted the aug itself in her 'womb' which was a perilous journey; tons of nerves pas through her reproductive system. The aug will regulate the influx of dozens of dryad specific hormones in the next couple of weeks.

You were almost done. Her signs were stable, no alerts on your screen. She is quite healthy to he honest, it helped you greatly in this 4 hour operation. Something remains undone...what is it? what is it?

Oh yeah, the trackers. Should you implant them or not?

This was her first aug, you have high doubts about the tickers going after her though it is not impossible. No one is going to accept a direct breach of their privacy willingly, being tracked 24/7 by the police is never a good idea.

The Dryad slowly woke up, she didn't feel much difference. You told her to call you in your working hours. After paying up, She left with a new hope brimming inside.

Stopping here for today, thank you for playing!

You took this little break you had to unbox your gun. A standard semi auto Kolta-17 modded to function as an inferior smart gun. Its non-reliance on proper smart tech is a blessing and a disguise ; your gun is unhackable.

Next up was the android, he was an early post-rights model, you can tell by the three ports at his right temple.Unlike Rott, he had actual synthesized skin and all that Jazz. 202 wore plain clothes, nothing too flashy but at the same time there weren't form new Egalith. The pale colours of his clothes hid numerous small patches particularity at the chest. Something wasn't right about his two arms either; too...bulky for his frame. He looked like he had seen some shit with his blank, unfocused gaze.

"Took you long enough," he sat down, pulling out Zanzan cig pack out of his jacket pocket, one of the few legal drugs consumed by both elfoids and androids.

"You can say that," was his answer. "Used to work for the UCAMM, Vulture Depen and Jakaviin.."quite an impressive list right here. Merc business thrived greatly in the last centuries often pinned against each other to serve their corporate masters.

"My Magahab Venenrium Blade is...well, see for yourself." He took off his jacket to expose malformed and burnt arms with jutting metal pieces all over. How the hell he is all calm without his pain receptors frying his core in agony?!

"Fix them or install similar aug. I know you got some Magahab behind the counter for me, doc."

>Nah,nah, nah. You are trouble. Get out of my clinic.
>Fix what exactly? you need two new fucking arms my man
>Did they overheated and exploded inside your arms?!

"Hook me up." After accessing his data, you found his model schematics. Technically, you could restore it to its previous state. The arm's functions are stable actually. Only the external framework has been fucked up. The Blade mod is roasted though, it needs a new one.

Ho'fuck my existence, With that amount of skill I'm left to wonder what the hell this clanker just fisted to leave those arms in THAT kind of condition...

>>2859983
reconstructing half an arm is a lot difficult compared to installing new one. It is up for the customer to decide.

also i should mention that the prices listed will always give us a net again. We can ask for more pons if we wanted to

That makes sense

The Monosrtuct scanned and analyzed the two arms first. It did its best to recreate a decent replica thanks to the schematics and your decent skills. You applied it meticulously especially at the joint area without much use of the nanogel as you thought you would. You did meet some difficulty with the blade; mainly its connection so he can retract it slowly or in a split second . You had to rewire certain segments to fix the problem.

It was a Tedious 7 hour operation. Molly had already left postpoing any potential customers to a later day. You were already tired and unfocused for any of anything at this time.

On the plus side, You learned a great deal about dealing with situations like this , in a perfect world, this would require two or more to perform it and you just handled it by yourself. Thank fuck he was a talkative guy, he shared some of his stories with. You didn't want to put a tracker in a guy like him. You couldn't anyways; There is no telling what other augs he had installed elsewhere.

"How are you feeling?" You yawned, it was close to midnight by now.

"23% less overall durability, 0.59% pores detected, 16% more heat conductivity ... but you did a good job. I like the new blade." He retracted his blade a couple of times. "Here, you cash with a little extra."

The chip he gave you had 1000 more pons.

You got a little bit carried and bought yourself a ''''''''''''''cheap''''''''''' beef burger for 1000 pons reveling in the taste of bovine goodness. You were almost intoxicated with the taste.

You returned to your apartment half asleep already. One bath later, you dropped dead in your bed, ready to sleep.

Had it now been for the small drone waiting for you.

"YOU have been a naughty, naughty puppy." The drone had a glitchy image of a flight attendant in cyan and yellow. It didn't seem to have any visible weapon "Just what are you going to do with all these shitballslicking trackers, hmmmmm? They are soooo last year "

"Ok! You can call me Rainwave , a wonderchild high on 3 different drugs right now woohooo! As it happens, I got my hands on a group of aug harvesting fuckos. I offer them what they want aaand in turn i enjoy my live snuff! That last girl was prime stuff, puppy!"

"What the..?you fucking bitch..." your veins were burning in anger and rage. You were more than ready to commit a crime if she is standing right in front of you.

"Thank you! Anyways, My Tickers wants more Arlochyi Adv. augs. Can you please install *our * trackers on your customer who had them? pretty please? You'll get pons for each customer you help us with~"

"please? pretty pl-" You shot the damn drone right at its screen. It stopped moving after the second shot.

Suddenly, you found yourself on the floor stunned and unable to move. Another larger drone slowly crept from under your bed retracting its long wire "Bad puppy! Bad! Now i'll have to fix my poor little baby you big meanie. I'll see YOU later."

The stun drone attached the broken drone to itself. This Rainwave chick didn't want the cops to retrieve it for a good reason.

stopping here for now, thank you for playing!

Thanks for running.

Gotcha QM

You were tempted to call the cops right away. This psychotic bitch might attempt to contact you again, the problem here is bringing them in the first place; they will comb your apartment and clinic for sure...finding any of your less than legal possessions. You can't allow that.

In a perfect world, hearing two gunshots is concerning, alarming even. Here, it is more of background noise filtered and forgotten, few give a flying fuck about others because it is more than likely to get screwed that way . Keep your head down and live for another day. That's a true motto right there.

At least the drone was generous enough not to corrupt your hard light window. You went to bed, your gun by your side.
________
9th of November, Sunday

You woke up quite early in the morning for a quick piss. Something didn't feel right, your right leg felt heavy and numb while your back was flaring up with pain. No, not again.

Fuck.

"Morning Molly, Cancel all of my appointments for today." You called your secretary who had just arrived to the clinic.

"Mr. Blank? You are okay?"

>It is nothing. Just do it.
>Feeling a little sick.
>Lioude , it has been years... I...will figure something out for it.
>write

>>2864162
>>Feeling a little sick.

my trip
>>2864162
> are you okay?

>>2864162
>Feeling a little sick.
Lioude? I'm guessing it's a condition that involves augs in some fashion.

>>2864174
>>2864190
"Do you want me to come b-"

"No,no,no. Make sure everything is locked up and go home." If Drit was your orcish daughter, Molly would be your human one. Her kindness goes beyond your line of work.

The pain erupted more, forcing you to sit down on your couch. It has been 36 years since the Lioude terrorist attack , you were just a stupid kid fucking around back then. Some radicals got away with an experimental Magahab bioweapon and detonated it right in the heart of a Lokk stadium during the finals. They wanted to protest against the evergrowing powers of corporations by killing people.

26000 paid the price for that shitty statement, less than 4000 survived. You were among them . No compensation for the victims, No stricter laws to be applied. Just a lousy fucking statement ''''condemning''' radical groups.

Hell, Magahab didn't even to try to produce a cure for it OR even to sell its rights to Lunkdazrm who were more than willing to fund a proper research for it. No one can call for justice against them not even other corporations.

The symptoms varied wildly depending on the age, gender and augs installed. In your case, it would start with a flaring pain that will progress further and further until it goes for your lungs or heart paralyzing them.

You used to know an ex Magahab contractor called Dimtrov Malchin . He sold you some pills which suppressed your symptoms, 20k a pop. It was part of an abandoned project to create a cure but of course it was too costly just for the sake of 4000 people. Last time you call him was seven years ago when he wanted to 'hide' an aug inside another inconspicuous one.

Some had better success auging the shit out of their bodies instead. You don't want to settle for a drastic option just yet. You are 100% human, no augs what so ever. It is something you are proud of as debilitating as it is in this day and age. You can become Lunkdazrm lab rat while they try anything to find a cure for you.

Finally, you can find some help with the local gangs, who knows? They might help you out of the goodwill of their pure, pure hearts.

"Who is this? " A whole different voice replied. For a second, you forgot about his voice changer aug.

"It is me, Blank."

"Blank buddy, how ar-"

"Cut the crap, Dimtrov. I need the pills" you went straight to the point, you never liked the way he sleazed around with words.

"Let me check..." all went silent for a couple of minutes "Ah, you are one lucky son of a bitch. I have 6 more pills. That will be...100 stack for each one. "

>Are you out of your fucking mind?!
>Do you expect me to waste all of my savings on two pills only?

"I don't how. about you try to steal some experimental shit from Magahab for a change? Do you think they simply forget about all of this? I am being hunted every single day, Blank. Vultures, UCAMM, Valkyrie cunts ... you fucking name it. I do not sleep in the same bed twice. So excuse me when i try to squeeze a little bit of pons out of these pills so i can scrape by." A constant life of forgeries and fake identifies can be demanding, you get what situation he was in but at the same time it was too fucking expensive. Granted, it has been 8 years but still. Have mercy already.

"How about some augs? I can pay you that way."

"No offense Blank, but you are a shitty cyberdoc. You pretend to know it all, deep as a puddle kind of thing. that aug was an exception because i was in a tight spot." there was a pause, he was checking on something "We doing this or what?"

>Looks like i don't have any choice. [arrange a meeting with him]
>Goodbye, Dimtrov [End the transmission]

>>2864449
How much Pon do we currently have at this time?

>>2864450
above 200k.
Most of it (plus our earnings) goes to buying new augs.

>>2864455
If we call up Lundcare, does that mean it's an end to this quest since we've become a lab rat?

>>2864460
Well, it would take weeks maybe months for them to find a possible cure. Blank would have be under their constant supervision.

So in short, yes. Unless we did a time skip.
Keep in mind that this is also intended to be a one shot or a most a two-thread one shot

>>2864473
>Keep in mind that this is also intended to be a one shot or a most a two-thread one shot
OOF

>>2864473

If staying completely human is something our character is genuinely proud of, then let's hold onto our physical humanity for as long as possible.
Also let's give like 10 to 20k to Molly as a way of saying thank you for working for us.

>>2864485
>>2864515
we will cross that bridge when we come to it
>>2864516
>>2864505
well since it is a big decision here. I can't apply my rule here. I will go with what is most voted.

>>2864523
That's alright QM. Even if we didn't have as far reaching choices like in the Prince Quest. I believe that the short amount of time we spent with Blank was a lot more personal, and easier to comprehend for everyone involved.

>>2864449
>Goodbye, Dimtrov [End the transmission]
yeah nag lets get auged as fucc boii
Unless we we can get some sort of cyberpsychosis from too many augs like in a certain tabletop...

This is a one way trip. If you crawled back to him now, he will raise the price to astronomical degrees.

You played Xorza's holotape watching her swing her tits and ass. Her android sways were hypothesizing, they somehow cleared your clouded thoughts. You need to think this through.

Lunkcare never fucks anyone over, but you don't like the whole idea. They will run experiments, strip you of any freedom during the treatment process which will take weeks at the very least. You might as well wind up dead from their medications or from a rival corporation who wants to sabotage the whole thing for shits and giggles.

Protostags are great smugglers, they might have the pills right now. However, you don't want to associate too much with gangs not only for your sake but for the sake of those you care for. What if some rival gang kidnapped Molly, demanding that you will become their little bitch? or someone like Rainwave or worse? Will you ever forgive yourself for it? It is a sinkhole you want to avoid.

There is only one choice left : Augmentations . You will lose what makes you human, most of it anyways. To avoid a most grim fate, you must augment your legs, spinal cord , heart and lungs . Those are the essentials.

It felt pretty ironic as you kept watching the android twirling around that pole. You can't resist the future. You must embrace it.

>Choose which brand Blank will go for each one of these augs.

>>2864568
>Magahab tech
On ALL of them. There are vital organs we're talking about, might as well get the most reliable/durable shit available, and unless i'm getting something wrong the best stuff for that is usually either enterprise or military grade. And i don't see a "enterprise" aug brand around.

>>2864584
Magahab augs are usually expensive. So much so that if we continue on afterwards we might not have enough money to do anything else, even paying the bills.

>>2864599
Do we know if there's any at our clinic or if orc daughteru has any in her stash? Surely we can operate the legs on ourselves at least?

>>2864604
Drit only trades in M & D
We can't just aug ourselves for major operations like this.

>>2864604
We probably do have some, but there's a good chance it's going to be the discontinued augs or augs that were phased out decades ago.
There's also the fact that We're literally chopping our legs off and replacing them with metal parts, idk about you but losing a limb will fucking hurt a LOT.

>>2864607
>>2864609
Well then we need to get money anyway, how about freelancing for the boss? We seem to have at least some favour with him after the mummification of the cannibal junkie.

>>2864604
according to the brands which still remained undecided, we might have some augs needed .
>>2864611
money is not an issue, the whole reason we chose augs because it is a cheaper alternative to the 100k pill.

>>2864611
Do we really want to be under the thumb of a crime boss who might see this as a excuse to hold us in their grasp until the day we fucking die? With no real way out, outside of doing what Dimtrov did on a lesser scale?
Because at that point we may as well just turn ourselves into a corp's waiting room as one of their new labrats.

>>2864618
you didnt choose a brand just yet anon.

>>2864623
I know QM, I'm just being the annoying fly on the wall at the moment.

>>2864568
I'll vote for everything except the spinal cord as Lunkdazrm Med. Because once we get our spinal cord augmented, there's a good it'll probably be it for that section, we'll want the best of the best. So I'll vote for Magahab tech for the spinal cord.

>>2864616
>money is not an issue
Are you saying that we can actually afford going full magahab then?

>>2864616
>Money is not an issue
So we can literally afford the topshelf brands that toe the line between legality and illegality?

>>2864628
It will be very expensive (depends on the model or if we have in stock the first place) but it is less than paying 200k.

So technically use if we know how and where to post, i will list the choices in next post for better judgement.
We are a doctor not a cyberkilling machine.
>>2864629
Nope, that will go even beyond our limit. Our Merchandise is discontinued/used/bootleg/obsolete .The really good stuff is at the surface. we are more or less bottom feeder.

we will also have to pay for the doctor who will perform this operation.
