Tyrace's Origin is as muddled as his corrupted memories of it all. He was created on an Independant system as a prototype Chimera Program (basically like a program that can learn and adapt to any job or function, similar to a rudimentary User-made ISO.) He was loaded into the Encom system to test his functionality in real time, and see if his Programming would work in a true scenario. Unfortunately, his coding was very unstable, resulting in a glitch... then a full compromization... morphing his adaptogenic code into that of a virus. He was ripped out of the Encom system both for safety of the System's other functions, and to protect whatever was left of the Beta Program, and stored on an empty drive... one that was stolen by Flynn to extend parts of the Grid onto. Finding himself conscious once again, missing memories, and corrupted... abandoned and cut off from his home and User... He escaped onto the Grid... living out his life in the Outlands... trying to find a cure for his... condition... while also protecting cities from his own kind.

Spit out, like a bad taste or a ward against evil, and worth even less. I take a moment to imagine what the air rushing between my fingers must feel like as I plummet towards the jagged city below. I catch a glimpse of the dropship cresting the skyline, more bodies falling towards the meat grinder in its trail. Bodies like my own.

I land on a rooftop and crash right through, bouncing off the apartmet floor and out the window to the alley. I fall several stories and land in a dumpster. Well, half of me does. I look down at what's left of my torso and a diagnostic screen appears in the corner of my vision.

PAIN. PAIN. PAIN. What's left of my nervous system lurches as the shock grips my fibrous metal muscles, my hands crushing a discarded metal pipe I was using for balance. I open my jaw and scream. Metallic. Distorted. Inhuman.

The pain subsides, my grip lessens. Putting one arm ahead of me I begin to claw and drag myself towards the end of the alley.

As I reach the end of the alley, my hearing returns. Gunfire and explosions, eight blocks south, moving away. I consult my objective data. Not that way. Unfortunate, I may have been able to cannabalize some legs for myself from another unit. Fresher is better.

walking when you have one leg asleep is crazyyy and your body is doing it's very best, but it's still like WHAT DO YOU MEAN WE'VE LOST CONNECTION TO OUR MOTORFUNCTION

[themxtleycrew]

How Tayuya survived.

Originally wasn't gonna go with 'Temari didn't kill her', but ultimately decided that was the easiest one to go with.

Simple anwer: Temari didn't finish the job. IGNORE: The anime, her being resurrected by Kabuto's Jutsu was anime only and did not happen in the manga. Kabuto does possess her DNA though as part of the experimentation that gave her the curse mark. Her battle with Shikamaru and Temari plays out the same. However, she did not die when Temari crushed her under the trees. She was, however, crippled from the waist down and unable to move her legs. Without her flute, she was unable to summon her doki and pull the trees off of her. She was instead recovered by Anbu, believing they might be able to get information out of her on the whereabouts of Orochimaru and his plans for Sasuke.

She has a restraint put on her curse-mark, the Anbu use all methods at their disposal to get her to talk. Drugs, Genjutsu, pain, she doesn't give up where Orochimaru is.

Tayuya remains imprisoned for the entire time skip. A medical nin is brought to her in order tend to her injuries, but they are sworn to secrecy on Tayuya's continued existence. Occasionally, the restraints on her curse mark are reapplied. Tayuya still refuses to speak, however, whistling can be heard from her cell. While with the medical-nin, Tayuya learns how they use Chakra to heal and begins devising a way to temporarily restore movement to her legs.

Tayuya begins appealing to the medical nin, eventually getting them to lower their guard, that is when Tayuya puts her plan into action. Having spent her captivity practicing with her whistling, as well as using her own blood to turn herself into her own 'demon flute', she bites off the medical nin's ear and summons her doki. Using what she learned for Chakra control, she restore motorfunctions to her lower body and makes her escape. The Anbu manage to catch up to her, along with Anko, and eventually Tayuya falls into a river, where she is presumed dead once more.

And she would have died, had it not been for two little things giving her drive, two itches she needed to scratch, two blemishes she needed removed.

The nerd with the shadow binding techniques, and the bitch with the fan.

Once she washes ashore and regains consciousness, she begins making her way north, she failed Orochimaru, but she intends to return to him, get Kabuto to fix her spine, and return to Orochimaru's service. The journey however, is slow, she can only use so much chakra to help her walk before she needs to rest, and of course, she's still within spitting distance of Konohagakure, meaning she needs to avoid ninja from that village.

She is unable to return to Orochimaru's hideout in her condition, but she is eventually picked up by a squad from Otogakure. There, she receives the treatment she needs, it isn't perfect, but she can walk again, which is enough for her. At first, she needed crutches, later switching to a cane. She occasionally channels chakra into her legs in order to move faster, but the recovery process is long.

She fashions a new flute, and manages to summon her doki again. Eventually she also has the restraints on her curse mark removed.

Due to her condition, she does not participate in the Great Shinobi War.

Tayuya is merely biding her time until she can finally get her revenge against Shikamaru and Temari. In her mind, screw Orochimaru and Kabuto, they left her to die, and screw the Hidden Leaf and hidden Sand shinobi who crippled her.

To those who question just how she came back, she will make up some kind of story, either claiming she is a ghost, a zombie, or a clone, or that she simply 'got better'.

DRAMA - You didn't even notice you had made that mistake.

DAMAGED HEALTH (-1)

DRAMA - Perhaps it would make more sense to stop, but you have to continue for two reasons: One, you are rather proud of both the tragic tale you've spun and the practical effects accompanying your performance. Secondly, and this would probably be reason one for anyone else, you really really need to recover and quick.

DRAMA [Trivial: Success] - Authority is unsure, or else he would not have asked. He will, even against his own nature, most likely go along with whatever Empathy deems to be true. You *have* to convince *him* in order to make this work.

DRAMA - You shudder. Since you don't have to fake your exhaustion at this point, surface cracking like mud in summer, you can fully concentrate on your words. "Oh Bleeding Heart - it seems you are *uniquely* well equipped to hurt dearest Bookkeeper. We are not certain how much longer we will be able to withstand the magnitude of his... *feelings*. Foolish of us, to allow him to hold the reigns at all. It might just spell our end, no matter how entertaining it is to watch Bookhead fumble and fail in his act."

DRAMA - As you speak, the little craft-project on your side twitches in sympathy. You bow down one of your faces, fixing Empathy with a look from under your hairless brow.

DRAMA - "At no point did our troubled librarian claim he was *alone*, Empathy. Whatever you may have picked up which feels like *us* - it does not contradict his desperate pleas. In fact... it stands to reason you must have suffered some of *his* emotions as well - after all, those *foreign things* were enough to cause *us* injury."

DRAMA - You note that Bookhead's body seems to regain some motorfunction, but that really is secondary right now.

[Continuation]

AUTHORITY - Empathy isn't answering to you. Sure, you haven't said anything, but between your commanding presence and his supposed capability of picking up on cues, it really should not be necessary.

AUTHORITY - You are about to say something, when Encyclopedia/Drama releases another slew of words, practically *begging* to be heard. It's rather pathetic.

AUTHORITY [Easy: Success] Maybe it really *is* Bookhead.

AUTHORITY - "Shut the fuck up!" you bark, unsure of how to react to this. If it's Drama, anger would be correct, if it's Papercuts, then you should at least muster up pity for them being stuck with the arch-liar. But you don't know, so you end up with anger, as per usual.

THE BODY - You feel it moving under your palm, trying to turn to the side, which makes you *finally* really look at it.

THE BODY - No sound escapes it while you watch face and throat strain and twitch. The head is turned towards Encyclopedia/Drama but since you can't make out any expression you don't know if it's seeing them. You can now see that you've not only torn the clothing at the shoulder, but their skin as well. Black oozes out and it matches the smear you are leaving above their sternum.

ENCYCLOPEDIA [Medium: Failure] - Is that blood? Do you all...have that? Is it supposed to look like that? No clue. Honestly, it looks closer to whatever the apparition had going on earlier...

VOLITION [Easy: Success] - You shelf the guilt over the glaring injury, for now.

AUTHORITY - You fix Empathy with a flash of your eyes. Aggressive, but only because your question is urgent. "Which one is it?" you punctuate the pause with a slight shove of your palm, "Could also be neither..."

AUTHORITY - You make no move to release your hold.

[parasafterdark]

That feeling when you had to supress any and all daydream urges all day and they come back to dropkick you straight into the paracosm as soon as you close the door after coming home

[focsle]

While the dandyism definitely plays a part, what I was specifically meaning is that you smile the way you draw smiles, which I think is really neat

OH YEAH, def lol. Everyone has the exact same Mouth Motorfunction as me.

[thepastelpeach]

What kind of experiments? I doubt that they’re dangerous, but I kind of have a hunch that you can never tell with her.

Your hunch would absolutely be correct. The first time juan came home to shirley about to inject something into pancake he nearly had a heartattack "calm doWN Juan it was only a little experimental seditive i cooked up i was testing to see its effects on the motorfunctions and heart" "the hEART?!¿"

Pancake was completely indifferent to the whole affair

Owlet’s Dysgraphia Life

Ok, since so many of you wanted to hear about it, here we go.

I should preface this with the fact that I’m well aware that I’m not a super bad case of dysgraphia. I do have the problems that come with it, but not to the degree that some other people do.

In relation to that, I was diagnosed relatively late, in 8th grade, because of my teachers. At some class talk they (my German, English and French teachers) realized that while my oral and participation grades were very good, my written ones tended to be abysmal, at least in my non-native languages. One of them suggested to get me tested which my parents did. 

Now, what dysgraphia does to me, is it’s basically like living with the world’s worst incarnation of autocorrect in your brain.

You see, what it does at times is that I’ll start writing down a word and like a syllable in the brain’s like ‘oh i know which word’ and... writes down another one, because dysgraphia mostly affects the motor part of handling written language. Reading works fine, but when I am tasked with reproducing my motor functions are... a little more independent than I’d like them to. That leads to words like ‘because’ turning into ‘before’, or ‘which’ turning into ‘with’ because the motorfunction is about two letters in, goes ‘I KNOW I KNOW’ and then pulls out something that doesn’t fit but sounds more or less similar. Or like in earlier post today where ‘birth control’ turned into ‘birthday control’ because the fingers were autocorrecting in a way they shouldn’t.

Another bug in the system is missing or duplicating letters or syllables, especially if it’s a letter that’s not spoken, which makes English a special kind of torture because this language SUCKS wrt to the rules of pronunciation of what’s written down. So silent letters? dropped. Letters like m and n, when handwriting something tend to blend into each other. Or I go the other way and letters, or when handwriting, parts of letters, get duplicated, ending with m’s that have like three arches. Or four. Or I do long words that have more letters than they should, like duplicated e’s.

I also tend to miss out on punctuation marks, which is fortunately something less obvious online because writing conventions do differ quite significantly.

The worst part of this: I can backread an email or a letter or an article I type out on here five times and NEVER see my own mistakes, even if it’s really big ones like fucked up sentence structure where I missed a pronoun because again, the internal autocorrect strikes and what I read is what I THINK i wrote. Not what’s actually there. Even letting a few hours pass between reading and writing does nothing. It’s very frustrating and means that I need a beta reader for a lot of stuff, especially my adult-emails because my boss is kind of anal about proper grammar and punctuation in emails to her, which doesn’t make it easier. So here the autocorrect function of my brain just clocks out entirely like and without the red squiggly lines I so in such deep trouble. 

Funnily enough, the more complicated a word is, the less likely I am to actually fuck it up, because I know that it’s a complicated word likely to give me trouble, meaning I focus on it specifically, meaning I tend to get it right, and then the moment I stop focusing on it, i fuck it up again. 

something else with dysgraphia that appears to be common is having ugly as chickenscratch for a handwriting, and while i don’t think my own’s that bad, people have complained about it before. I would supply a sample but idek what to write down for y’all so, not happening. Maybe later. 

But yeah essentially that’s what it’s like to live with dysgraphia, at least for me so the next time you see me do a weirdass typo or phrasing, it’s probably that, plus the occasional dash of ‘not my native tongue even though I’m essentially fluid with it now’.

Term Knowledge Quest Update

I’m hosting this journey here, because I feel its the best for hosting this sad, tragic tale. 

I begin my tale as someone experienced in how hard it is to find credible academia re: Video games, mechanics, and stuff like that on the Literary, objective level, divorced from the ‘lets treat video games as a science and look at the effects they have on people rather than taking a genuine look at the processes’. So I begin accordingly.

In the spirit of not looking like a closed minded un-academic individual in a university course, I try to make do

I give up on external search engines and go to my own archives (I’ve actually adopted the strategy of - if i’m given an academic reading to read for a class that’s digital that resonates with me, i’ll save it and store it on my computer. It’s a recent tactic, but one that I’ll probably hold onto so I can get an edge in expressing where my very opinionated views come from - at the very least hold onto academic stuff that supports the various theories and viewpoints I agree with.

Unfortunately this means I -really like- referencing one paper and I imagine my profs and future profs are gonna get sick of it real quickly

So eventually I go ‘hey maybe I should just comb through more of her work to find people she’s referenced so I can at least have the illusion of having quested and really worked to come to my conclusions? Sure I could just carry my knowledge quest on the word of mouth from Journalists who make a good show of understanding the medium of games, and also pulling from word of mouth from devs themselves on the WHY’S of how they used certain mechanics. But, Academia was asked for, so, I have to rely on looking for Academia for a topic that has only existed for a handful of decades at most, which is rife with things like ‘Hey video games can improve motorfunctions’ and more scientific stuff or weird bullshit that has little to do with the actual creative processes of why a dev studio went with one mechanic over the other. 

So, several days later of just browsing around equals:

hey i’d like to find diverse Academia for Video Games but this shit is only JUST starting to make any sense of itself in a meaningful manner that doesn’t read like a Post Modernist Art Essay, but yet here we are, I gotta go looking at stuff thats only tangentially related that makes any sense and then try to shove it in that way. 

Seriously, Game Master, Tell me where the Media Studies profs finds their PDF’s, I could just pull from that pool instead of wasting my time meandering around and pawing at the ground like an idiot with a bag on her head.

Abraxas has a very unstable character, his personality teetering along the thin edge between sanity and Deathbringer... and thus can be difficult to determine just what side you will get. Jalen can exist... but it would be difficult to stifle the corruption enough to get a glimpse of that side of him... and it is highly possible you would die trying. He is very protective of his territory and Infect Drones. Grid (Pre Coup): Jalen, Likely close to Radia(Ophelia) as second leader of the ISOs, Games Addict and Participant. Grid (Evolution): Abraxas, Fully focused on destruction of all living programs. Grid (Uprising, Legacy, and beyond): RP will have to determine.
