Some confusion is normal.You will be housed in the Newly Re-Animated Suites (N-RAS) for two weeks.
From there you will be collected by your sponsor.
DO NOT try to unlock your memories.
DO NOT try to upgrade your mechanics at home or in a chop shop.
If you are having difficulties, talk to your sponsor.And then in bigger, red letters: Welcome To Your New Life.
Ravi read and re-read the last sentence. Welcome to your new life. A new life. Was that a good thing? Did it depend entirely on the life that came before? The life Ravi had no hope of remembering thanks to the chip installed in his brain.
He had read the statement at least fifty times already, each time triggering new thoughts about who he once was. Even so, his eyes scanned over it once more as his right hand fisted and unfisted of its own accord, halfway through the word ‘your’ when the wall exploded, jumping toward him.
Leaping to his feet, Ravi found himself in a combat stance. A person emerged through the dust that had once been a recycled plastic wall. Deep brown eyes raked over Ravi: Examining, assessing.
"Petite," they called over their shoulder. "This is the wrong room." Flicking their head back to face Ravi disturbed their choppy pale hair so it fell into their eyes.
Their sturdy black boots picked their way over the pile of plastic that used to be a wall as they tugged at the collar of the white jacket that could so easily be mistaken for a medical uniform. They turned their full attention back on Ravi where he stood frozen in his combat stance.
They offered a dangerous smile. "Okay, Re-An. I have to move fast so you have two options: you come with me, or I punch you out – and by punch I mean flip the switch that sets you to standby mode so you need rebooting."
Welcome To Humanity by Will Soulsby-McCreath

Have you seen @thedisabilitybookarchive cos they archive lists of books with disability rep and you can search by genre.
Also two of my sci-fi books have disability rep in them.
Ravi from Welcome To Humanity is one of the three protagonists and has an entire prosthetic arm and leg and stuff and it's not exactly the most functional.
But I think Matter from Unlicensed Delivery suits this desire too, they're one of the five pov characters and the first one we start with. On page one, Matter is complaining about IPA standardised chairs and how bad they are for their chronic illness. They have a flare day on page, have a complex relationship with the ship's CMO, and their chronic illness impacts the climax of the novel.
I wish there was more representation of disabilities and chronic illness in fantasy, science fiction and action genres.
Not just a side character with 30 seconds of screentime. An important character that doesn't just exist to further the storylines of other characters. I want a character that doesn't get "cured" or healed. A character that stays disabled and/or chronically ill. A character that isn't afraid to ask for help. One that doesn't think they're a burden and doesn't try to hide their disability/ chronic illness.
I want to see how it affects them, not just know they're disabled/chronically ill and it jist never gets mentioned again. I don't mean it should be their entire personality but being disabled and or chronically ill can affect many parts of life.
I just wish there was more representation of disabilities and chronic illness that shows every part of it. Especially in fantasy and science fiction it's lacking.

Right, considering the current state of corporate politics on this site, and that it seems that only those affected seem to be actively speaking on the matter, this needs to be dragged out to a wider audience.
This extends to refusing to believe in bogus call-out posts for frankly minuscule thinks such as being horny or kinky, especially if the target is presenting in an ‘unconventional’ manner, (therians, etc.) this double standard where it is seen as ‘degenerate’ for transfemmes to merely exist in certain spaces, yet everyone else is fine to do so is disgusting and part of the reason for the backlash.
PUTTING TERFS DNI IS NOT THE BE ALL AND END ALL, YOU GENUINELY HAVE TO PUT YOUR MORALS OF BEING RESPECTFUL INTO PRACTICE.

We need to show these higher ups how much we truly value them.
Edit 1: Changed the wording of the post and decided to put in a reminder.
Edit 2: Further Re-iteration on the wording and format edits.

Anyone mind a little self-promo of my upcoming independent novel (release date 27 June 2023). It's called Welcome To Humanity and it's about 3 people forging connections and building community in the face of increasing intolerance and fear.
The opposite of grimdark is hopepunk. Pass it on.

Taking a class on the Epic of Gilgamesh, do you have anything you would like to say to a first-time reader
The first half is yaoi and the second half is like the musings mortality and how when we die it is what we leave behind that will be remembered and sometimes our names alone aren't enough to carry us and you may be Gilgamesh killer of humbaba, killer of the watchman of the cedar forests, killer of the bull of heaven, king of urduk, but why is your face so haunted? Why is your spirit drawn? And the answer will always inexplicably be grief and the love that binds us. You live because your name lives on in my mind and on my lips and in my chest and my heart. And also yaoi
