It might be.

Oh, there's plenty of benefits. No need to eat, greater strength, pain inhibitors, self repair, heightened senses.

It's incredible what the mind is capable of when you're running at 100%.

[chazz_it_up]

It might, or it is? You're not making much sense.

I like fried shrimp too much to give them up.

[Wow. Yes, he went there. Passing on all the incredible benefits, for delicious seafood. Not even the fanciest, most expensive type of seafood at that.]

Bet you couldn't legally duel in a tournament either... you know.. when that becomes a thing in my world.

[lorentzforcego]

Depends. Do you look down on those with augmentation?

Don't get me wrong. I missed the taste of things but it was nice not to have to eat to keep up my energy.

I need a special license to even walk around in certain cities because I'm considered a military grade weapon so it wouldn't surprise me.

[chazz_it_up]

Not really. I don't really know anyone who has had that kind of procedure done.

[That's saying something because he looks down on a lot of people.]

I guess that part of it would be useful...

... but that part wouldn't. What a drag. You can't even walk wherever you want to. What would they do if you stepped outside of the designated area?

[lorentzforcego]

Not even "plastic surgery?" Or those with false limbs? That still falls under augmentation.

I would be arrested. Thankfully I had the highest level of clearance in my world so I didn't need to worry about that.

[chazz_it_up]

Can you really compare those sorts of things to becoming a cyborg? Well- I mean.. if someone got a poor nose job, I would have a hard time not pointing it out. An amputee would be different.. like there's a line on what you can make fun of.

[Apparently.]

If it's such a non-issue for you, then why did you bring it up?

[lorentzforcego]

Yes. It's just a primitive form of it.

Now, now. That's not very nice. What if you were in their shoes?

[Oh my. Someone's insecurities are showing. Monsoon's just grinning to himself.]

As just a general statement to show you the condition of my world.

[chazz_it_up]

FYI. I wouldn't be. I'm not planning on having any work done on my face, it's fine the way it is.

[Chazz misses the point anyway, since people have always picked up on differences in others and made commentary about it. That wasn't the same as like.. actual hatred. That was just being observant. Yeah. That.]

I guess that makes sense. Hard to believe that it gets that restrictive..

[lorentzforcego]

Yes but what if you were that person who lost a limb and some child started making fun of you? Or you had a bad surgeon and they ruined your face?

[Don't worry, Chazz. Monsoon will stab the point into your head.]

You can't just have people running around as living weapons. It frightens the average citizen, you know.

[chazz_it_up]

Then.... I'd find a way to shut them up for good.

[Good luck, it's not easy to do. Although his words sound harsh, Chazz does not in fact mean he would kill someone that dared to insult him.]

Not that I'm encouraging it... but if cyborgs are so powerful you'd think they'd be the ones in charge making the rules not taking them. This stuff is too complicated...

[lorentzforcego]

[Not many are ever ready to reach that level.]

I see. How interesting.

And there are many people in power are cyborgs, whether their entire body has been replaced or they simply have minor implants. The world is complicated though, yes. Do not fret over it as none of those rules apply here.

[chazz_it_up]

People still use the word "fret"?

[No worries, Monsoon. Chazz is mostly over that part of the conversation already. It's nothing he has to worry about and likely is never to see so....

.. who cares.]
