Mnemosurgery and mnemosurgeons fascinate me beyond belief, because it's such a specific job with a specific way of doing it and wayyyyy to fucking easy to cause harm.

I want to learn about how the field was born and evolved, more about how it physiologically works (how are one's needles hooked up to the processor? How exactly does the connection work? Tbh how does it not cause more damage?), what good is it even supposed to do, how similar/dissimilar is it from the cortical patch we see in TFP, how is it determined that someone will be a mnemosurgeon (are there mecha born with the needles, or is it merely a modification?), are there different specialties within Mnemosurgery, seriously how do finger needles connect your brain to their brain, and how does it not cause more harm???

#maccadam #transformers #transformers more than meets the eye #transformers lost light #plus not to mention how the needles of every mnemosurgeon we've seen have been different (which is definitely theme symbolism stuff)#though of course there's shadowplay with all it's fucked up glory #mnemosurgery is a fascinating subject //because// i hate it to hell and back #the very concept of someone rooting around in my head and messing with my mind is just sickening and makes me wanna go full tinfoil hat #bravo to jro for absolutely nailing the mark on that aspect of Cybertronian life
