I greet you, my fellow Legionnaires.
[ The image accompanying said greeting is that of a young woman with pointed ears and tattoos across the upper part of her face, peering inquisitively into the camera. She thinks she's got this broadcast option thing down. ]
In case we haven't met? My name is Marjara.
[ Her lips quirk upwards, before her expression grows a little more somber. ]
I've been thinking something through. And I think I know what I want to do. But a little experience from other people who might have gone through similar circumstances would help. I think.
[ She's not going to ask them to choose for her. Gods knew she'd never let someone make her mind up for her before now, and she wasn't about to start...but learning about the shift? The consequences? The little things that came along with it that you might not initially think about? Might be worth the time to ask. ]
Have any of you lost a part of you, a limb or...something else of similar importance, and chose to have it replaced? Would you be willing to speak of what it was like for you?
If not, I still thank you for your time.

[He puts it back on and cuffs it again, rolling down his sleeve.]
Losing limbs isn't really that uncommon in my line of work. Other people back home that run in the same crowd I do have prosthetics or cyborg parts.
[Starlord'd had that cybernetic eye until he'd gotten it replaced with a cloned one. Misty Knight and Bucky both had a robot arm. A couple of X-Men had lost arms or hands.]
Occupational hazard, I guess. It's not really that uncomfortable and it does the job. Other than actually being able to feel with it, which unfortunately I'm not built for, that's about the best you could ask for.

[ Being able to detach it is handy, sure. Practical, even. But the issue she's worried about isn't functionality.
She just isn't sure how to phrase that concern, really. ]
