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.

do you know what a vibrator is

[legionnpcs]

We can't take you anywhere, can we?

[turntex]

hey cool youre here awesome
i had a question for you too
do roboticians have some kinda robocock built in or do you need to get an attachment or something

[legionnpcs]

Buy me dinner first and we'll talk, babe.

[turntex]

do you even eat

[legionnpcs]

Of course not. Why do you think I'm such a cheap date?

[turntex]

well shit that makes everything easier
prepare for the night of your life bro
you can tell daddy brainy youll be home by 11
im fuckin punctual if nothing else

[whyarewehere]

We are not talking about that.

[turntex]

i thought youd be all about this shit dude
just sit back and let a little tool do all the work
a blessed miracle for the sex lives of lazy assholes everywhere

[hallaifyouherd]

And who are you?

[turntex]

dave strider aka justin time
resident time traveler slash music producer
sup

[hallaifyouherd]

No thank you. I already ate.

[whyarewehere]

That's Dave. He's... Dave.

I'd say "you'll get used to him" but you kind of don't.

[hallaifyouherd]

And why is that?

[whyarewehere]

He's a ridiculous kid.

Just... look at all that.

[ Grif gestures at his screen in an effort to indicate this disaster of a thread tree. Goddammit Dave. Grif still likes him anyway. ]

[whyarewehere]

You're like twelve, I am not talking about this with you.

[turntex]

sixteen
cmon you dont need to resort to the age thing to get outta talking about your complete lack of experience
we get it youre so unmotivated id be surprised if you ever put in enough effort to get past a halfhearted second base

[whyarewehere]

Why are we still talking about this?!

-Ignoring what Dave actually wrote because THAT's SCANDALOUS but also saying this right where Griff can see it, completely not thinking through...-

I'm starting to get the impression this guy isn't as cool as I initially thought...

[turntex]

wow harsh
out in the open where he can see it and everything
fuck thats cold
i know i encouraged the whole public declarations thing but i honestly thought youd go an entirely different direction with it

[marryonette]

Eh?! EHHH!? He can see this?!

Oh no! OH NO! How do I turn it off!? -Elphelt...-

[whyarewehere]

What? No, I'm definitely cool.

[ He's only slightly offended. ]

[marryonette]

I'm sorry! I'm really sorry! It just... it's just... well...

Saying some of the things you're saying. They're kind of cruel, is all. -Elphelt wasn't a machine, but she wasn't quite human either. She couldn't help emphasizing with the robots in the discussion.-

[whyarewehere]

It's a public service.

[ Grif shrugs, totally casual. ]

[marryonette]

I definitely don't think that's the case!

You should really apologize...
