Description Right, we have a 16 year old called Akane who’s a social recluse and lives alone without any family, but very good at her school, particularly technology and computing. She meets another girl whom she instantly falls for (Hotaru). They date for a while until Hotaru is tragically killed by a mugger when she was on the way to Akane’s house. Akane blames herself for what happened and falls into a deep depression.
However, while reading a sci-fi book Hotaru got her as a birthday present, she comes up with an idea – bringing Hotaru back as a Cyborg. So, when she’s at Hotaru’s funeral, she asks for some time alone with the body, which she is given. And once alone, she extracts Hotaru’s brain from her body (which sounds kinda silly but it’ll be better described in the real thing).
When she gets home, she immediately places the brain in a container full of this nutrient fluid to keep it from rotting. She then sets to work on creating a body (again, sounds very simple and silly but it’ll have a lot more detail when written). And while she’s doing this she has all sorts of moral problems with it and worrying if it’ll work or not, but she’s determined to get Hotaru back.
After five years, she finally has the body completed (after working on it at all times available). And the brain is integrated into it. After a “false start” in which she thinks she’s completely ruined it, Hotaru’s eyes flicker open. She smiles.

Potentially a very interesting story, but one technical problem: by the time they have a funeral her brain would have already been rotting in her skull for probably a few days. And I think just an hour of "death" is enough to cause irreparable brain damage.

But that aside, the rest is within the realm of believability for typical over-the-top science fiction.

I guess Akane picked out those clothes for her cyborg lover...

Unfortunately it's entirely my own creation - you'll just have to wait for me to write it. Shame really, I'd like to read it too...

Wow, pretty nice ^^ Lovely... assets she has too x3 The green glow is indeed very well done, it's very pretty. The story also sounds pretty cool, and don't worry about it sounding simplistic, they all do until they're written/drawn ^^ And yes, yuri, I'm so glad to see soemone who does a lot of it, it's so rare to find <3 Great job, look forward to seeing more!

Both in fact. And for some reason I only just made the connection between you on DA and you on FF.net - I must say I'm quite honoured to have the writer of Third Genesis commenting on my work.........and damn I sound like a raving fan *slaps self* Right, I think I'm okay now...
