"Not necessarily. After all, Heather Graham is also in the T World Community. The Federation may abandon us, but the Ultimate Desire Imperial Royal Family wouldn't just give up on their Princess, right?"

I looked over my left shoulder. Mrs Pegpig cooed and flew away, refusing to make eye contact with me.

While I focused on just being there with her, another part of me couldn't help but think that while I had achieved some of my goals, I had lost something along the way.

I didn't have a lot of furniture down here because not a lot of furniture could withstand the mass of this body, so I generally just sat on a steel table that I had welded a back on to make something akin to a chair. One of the guy's called it an Iron Throne, so I had the idea to weld weapons of defeated enemies to it, but I haven't had the time thus far.

If I ever had to flee Arasaka as Hasumi, I would try to kidnap him and then Stockholm him over a period of time, I decided. Wait... that was bad, right? No, Taylor! You shouldn't kidnap people! Except, I didn't really have high hopes for his future if I did flee successfully, so it would be kind of like saving him, wouldn't it?

Ringing her doorbell, she answered and seemed to be vibrating in excitement, yelling, "I got the job! Taylor, I got the job I really wanted!"

ok, is it he or she?
"Well, there is this woman; she lives in the building with us. She was recently promoted as an executive in the Intelligence division," Yuki began, and I didn't need to ask him whose Intelligence Division. Basically, only Arasaka employees lived in this building. Yuki paused, "Long story short, your arrival was somewhat unexpected, and you snagged the last AV pad on this side of the building out from under her. She had been planning on purchasing or leasing an AV since his promotion."

"The Honourable, Lord Percival Butterbutt the Fourth, Esquire," Gloria said with a straight face, "Butterbutt for short."

But I never signed that agreement in the first place as I bought the body on the black market, so there. Nyaa!

with her FTL come she could do one better and have fusion power remote piloted vehicles from AV to space fighters.
"Yeah, yeah... I don't think that will be necessary," I said, waving a hand. I didn't really care that much, plus I wanted to save any favours like that for things that I was really interested in or really needed to know. I hadn't done any surgeries on any secret netrunners, but I had done a couple of Arasaka fighter pilots, and they had a number of interesting augmentations. They all had boostware and sophisticated neural interfaces that were similar to a cyberdeck. They would interface with the computers in the aircraft, and the pilot would fly the plane in a virtual reality interface. The aircraft's sensors would be his eyes, and the aircraft's control surfaces would be their limbs. It was quite fascinating, I thought. Each had enough physical augmentations to live continuously at 9Gs, so they could accept a tremendous amount of acceleration, too.

oh. it's the cartel then looking for Hana I'd bet.
They weren't connected through a shared gang or even a shared geographic area, either. While they all had served time, they didn't all serve time together or in the same lock-ups. The only common denominators were they were all from various parts of Southern California, and they were all convicted criminals with a history of being grunts once upon a time.

I wasn't exactly an economist or a political thinker, but I felt the issue with truly socialist nations was that, until recently, there was no practical way to replace the information the free market provided. Many people waxed philosophically about what precisely the free market was, but I thought it was pretty simple. It was nothing more or less than the sum total of millions and millions of people all trying to screw everyone else over.

😆 🤣 😂
"Tsk..." I said as I finally got the treatment plan back, as Militech was nixing the scar removal biosculpt. Penny-pinching bastards. This was like dealing with an HMO, or worse. I vastly preferred my normal "cash on the barrelhead" business. I would do it anyway, even if Militech didn't pay. My vats didn't use very many nanites these days with the multi-level filtering systems I had installed, after all. I'd just call this a freebie and doing my part for the GIs, I supposed. I stood with a Rosie the Riveter pose for a moment before I realised I wasn't alone, glanced at my receptionist and then fled to my office. The truth was it upset my sense of medical elegance not to include it.

thanks, I'll check it out.
(Ed note: Stan Lee was an American patriot and volunteered to serve in the Army Signal Corps during WWII. That said, he was always willing to stand up for the “little guy” and wouldn’t have bought into the propaganda painting Aron as a villain. If nothing else, the hospitals and schools opened by the Coeus Foundation and the lengths to which he went to ensure that disabilities were accommodated by the GAIA OS would’ve convinced him that Aron was a good guy. Stan Lee was far from stupid, after all, nor was he blind.)
