Is there a name for wanting your belly button removed? Like what would that mod/surgery be called?
Surely this is a thing other people have/want to have and it's not just me?
I just really really hate having a belly button. I wish it wasn't there, and it would look and feel so much better without it.

Mechagender/Mechakin/Mechahearted
sources - LGBTQIA Wiki, Otherkin Wiki, Wikipedia, Brittanica, Freeronin.com
An kingender/otherkin/otherhearted identity similar to robot, in that mechakin strongly identifies with cyberpunk transhumanism. However mechakin expands towards feeling a connection towards not just robots but also cybernetic body hacking and/or mechas in general.
This identity is not strictly for people with a hyperfixation/special interest in mechas, but it can be related to that experience for some people.
Some people might relate to mechakin more in the context of a traumatagender/fictionkin due to relating to characters that have been cursed to be cyborgs due to injury/trauma and/or cyborgs that experience bodily disconnect.

this quote about cordyceps from this article in a scientific magazine is basically how i've always imagined possession to work in horror stories. the demon/entity/whatever doesn't alter your perception, displace you, or control your mind, they just take over all your bodily processes, bypassing your brain entirely. they force your mouth and vocal cords to form the words they want you to say, force your limbs to move in the direction they want you to go, and force your lungs to keep expanding and contracting and your heart to keep beating, even through excruciating pain and horrific injury, so you can't even self-sabotage and your friends and loved ones are discouraged from trying to stop you for fear of what harm they might cause you to do to yourself to escape. you're a passenger in the driver's seat of your own car, and the hands on the wheel, though outwardly apparently the same pair you've always had, are no longer your own.

Okay, my brain refuses to think about anything other than Murderbot, so I looked at every use of the word "friend[s]" in TMBD and... created some pie charts. Normal human activities.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Some Thoughts™ I had while putting this together (under the cut):
In All Systems Red, Murderbot notes that the PresAux crew are all close friends (twice! and goes on to explain their internal relationships which I think is very cute). This is pretty much the only use of 'friends' in ASR, except for when Murderbot says that SecUnits can't be friends with each other.
It seems that this may be one of the first times Murderbot has ever really been around a group of friends before? Murderbot notes that this is not the norm for its contracts and admits that the fact that they are all friends and the way they interact with each other make it actually enjoy that contract (before!!!! the hostile attack, so it already enjoys this contract before they start seeing it as a person etc ghghhhh). [Inference: Friendship seems enjoyable.]
The first character that calls Murderbot its friend is ART in Artificial Condition. Murderbot immediately refutes this (and then goes on to call ART its friend to its clients for the rest of the book). [Inference: Maybe ART is Murderbot's friend. And maybe that is... agreeable]
Rogue Protocol has more than twice as many instances of the word 'friend' as any of the other novellas. Why? Miki. Friendship and its implications for non-humans are a central theme because Miki is friends with everyone. Murderbot initially scoffs at the notion that Miki and Miki's humans are friends. At the end of the book, after witnessing how desperately Don Abene tried to stop Miki from trying to save them, and her grief after its death, Murderbot has to admit that she had in fact been Miki's friend. [Inference: Humans can be friends with bots and can sincerely care about them]
In Exit Strategy, Murderbot tentatively uses the word "friends" for its humans for the first time (several times actually). It questions whether it can actually call them its friends or not and later realizes that it had been afraid what admitting that the humans are its friends would do to it. At the end of the book, Mensah tells Murderbot the PresAux crew are its friends, which is the first time a human has directly said that to it (at least on-page). [Inference: Humans can and want to be Murderbot's friends]
In Network Effect, Murderbot seems to be more habituated to the word 'friend', confidently calling ART and Ratthi its friends, like it is no longer just trying the concept on unsure if it fits. There are many instances in which other characters refer to MB as ART's friend or the other way around and Murderbot's humans refer to Murderbot as their friend several times. Generally, there seems to be less hesitancy, because yes, all of them are Murderbot's friends, why wouldn't they be. [Inference: SecUnits can have friends. This SecUnit has friends. They care about it a lot.]
Conclusion: The Murderbot Diaries tell the story of a construct that does not seem to consider the possibility of friendship for itself and is fine with that - until it accidentally starts caring a little too much and suddenly more and more people annex it as a friend (ew) to the point where it can no longer deny that this is happening and has to begrudgingly admit that yes, it has friends now and maybe that is actually not a bad thing.

been thinking a lot about the masks
They're actually organic, and lie in a dormant state until someone holds it up to their face. A newly-possessed masked is clumsy and awkward; it has swiftly altered the victim's blood to make it a volatile substance to boil off the faces of future victims. They bleed freely when stressed and out of excitement when when seeing prey, before even starting pursuit.
Slowly, over time, a mask's roots grow into any and all available holes within the victim's face (mouth, nose, eyes, and in very old masked, ears) to gain a finer control of the corpse's movements and senses and to keep it in one piece longer, like a tree's roots in dirt. These masks have more restraint for when they bleed, to preserve their blood for the kill, and urban legend says that their blood burns hotter and eats through helmet metal quicker.
Masks are rather docile when not actively hunting. But when they finally get their hands on new prey, they melt off the victim's face and start the process making another one of itself, similar to budding in earth hydras. The new mask is deposited onto what's left of the victim's face, and boom, now you have two mimics!
You can in theory rip a mask off its host with enough brute force, but... well, now you have a dormant mask and a corpse. To actually kill a mask, you have to shatter it, whether it's on a body or not. Any good hammer will do.

Super Junkoid is an extensive hack of Super Metroid with custom sprites and music by P. Yoshi. You play as Junko, a young girl trapped in a dream created by a horrifying serpent that worships her. The vibes are almost like that of an RPG Maker horror game, but in Metroid form.
Worth checking out, though note that there are instances of gore, body horror, and suicidal imagery.

I read a Hound Ruby fic recently called I can almost hear the Hounds that I really enjoyed and it got me thinking about these two again.
Something that's been on my mind since I last drew them was that I wanted to find ways to distinguish Penny's look more from her usual appearance; she has the red lights and the twisted ahoge and she was scraped up a bit but I wanted to go further.
So I'm leaning more into the cyberpunk nightmare that is Penny's existence. While with Salem she probably looks as I drew her previously but once they leave they lack the resources to keep her in top shape in the absence of Watts' or military funding.
So wear and tear take its toll and they end up needing to use less than optimal parts as replacements; maybe they can scavenge parts from the Atlesian Knights on occasion too. The result is: she ends up looking more obviously mechanical.

Sometimes I consider the madness and mania with which Vicky was putting his monster together and I wonder, dude in between the extra organs and whatnot, there is such a strong chance that you sewed in some poor half-dead schmuck.
