    Summary

    NB: I have crossposted this story to Royalroad under the title System Override.

     

     

    A forced experimental drug treatment at an early age has saddled David with an immense burden.

    His mother’s insistence on his current lifepath as a corpo has done much the same.

    David is a speeding ball of fire hurtling towards an unknown destination, and his mother’s death has left him adrift and unsure of his direction.

    So he does what any teenager with no more fucks left to give does—he chips in some mil-spec chrome and looks for a quick way to earn edds, all the while learning to utilize the nanotechnology that had been forced on him as a child—finding out the immense potential within him as a result.

    Corpo or Edgerunner? Why not both? And why not the best of both while we’re fucking at it?

    Top of Arasaka Tower.

    Night City Legend.

     

     

    God.

    Summary

    "Do you realize how fucking enormous of a mess it is tryin' to get that damn cannon to work in your gorilla arms? I've lost more sleep over looking inside those than seeing an Eight-year-old have her brain turned into paint." I said, just now realizing my coffee was getting cold.

    Summary

    A seemingly unassuming broadcast of Night After Night sets Night City alive when it reveals David Martinez is not only alive, but playing for team Arasaka. Abandoning the moon for the man who became her dream, Lucy returns with the goal of freeing him from his metallic prison, though it's not going to be nearly as easy as she first assumed.

    Looks like Adam Smasher has a new apprentice.
