10 △ VIDEO; looking fine and augmented

[neveraskedforthis]

[ Considering Adam spent the last two weeks as his old self, that is, the person he was before this and that incident, he takes it remarkably well. The memory of actual, feeling hands is still fresh in his mind, although he hadn't even been able to appreciate it much due to it having been nothing special at the time. It's easier to compare now, however—flesh to metal, feeling to unfeeling, weak to powerful. And for once, the lingering emotion of something having been taken from him against his will doesn't flare up again.

It's different. Much like a disabled person revisits the memory and place where everything happened and changed to maybe, finally, find some closure.

Things happen.

You don't always get a say in it. All you can do is deal, adapt and progress, because ultimately, that's what life has always been about. ]

I see everyone's quick to mope or make apologies. Excuse me if I refrain from joining your ranks this time, seeing as I came out of this with a few cute girls, free meals and a videogame—all things I didn't ask for, but I'm still not sharing. The game, maybe, if you ask nicely, but it's somewhat dated. So unless you can appreciate classics, don't even bother.

[ HI everyone did you miss this butt he's sure you did. ]

Oh, and here's your general PSA, directed at no one in particular, especially not the guys around the precinct: get into the habits of locking your tablets if you're just gonna leave 'em lying around. The next time I find one I'm gonna post the entirety of its porn folder to the network tagged with your name. And before you go, oh, that silly Adam Jensen, of course my porn folder is locked and hidden slash I'm an innocent virgin who doesn't even have a porn folder, honest--

Don't make the mistake of thinking that's gonna stop me.

[tipsygnostalgia]

[neveraskedforthis]

there's nothing wrong with cats. dogs are just better, deal with it.

[tipsygnostalgia]

[neveraskedforthis]

if you're making such an outrageous claim you're gonna have to prove it.

[tipsygnostalgia]

[neveraskedforthis]

and what's stopping you from getting a new one?

[tipsygnostalgia]

is there somewhere here i can get one?

[neveraskedforthis]

well they had other critters not too long ago, and i spot strays once in a while. im sure you could domesticate one of them.

[tipsygnostalgia]

and it bit me and gave me this nasty ass infection that i had to get my magical elfs to fix
an my bfs both died from being zombies so

[tipsygnostalgia]
