The irony about genlock 2 is that it kinda ultimately loops back around to Gray doing it to himself
If he hadn’t decided to do that shit he did (allegedly and all that), he could’ve had full creative control and a hot series on HBO max. whatever you say about the man it’s clear that he knew what he wanted that show to be, what themes he wanted to pursue, etc
but instead he tried to speedrun through the success that Monty got and now he’s gotta sit back as his baby gets essentially gutted to become a less charming, way grosser copy of itself

Also new Gen:Lock in like what, a week now? So I get to gush about how Chase is an incredibly well written main character and interacts with themes surrounding our, at this point, sort of inevitable cyberpunk reality in a way I've yet to see many other stories do.
Also he's a BLACK main character in a mech show like what else do you want?

Surprised to see me again fighting fans?
So am I!
I found a way to turn myself invisible for a while, but turning yourself visible again becomes that much harder when you can’t see your hands anymore.
Now that I’m back though it’s time to get this fighting train of death and quips rolling again!
This week we have a new contender stepping into the ring. Hailing from parts unknown and who lists their residency as “inside a stick”; let’s give a warm welcome to one of the sassiest men alive who could make you question yourself with but a blink of an eye, give it up for Ambrosius!
Ambrosius: *Cloud of smoke appears and he twirls into existence*
Roman: *Looks at cigar, then Ambrosius, then throws it down* Should’ve given these up earlier.
Ambrosius: Don’t worry, you’re not hallucinating.
Roman: *Raises cane, gun cap opens* Says the 7ft tall blue naked man floating before me, of course you’re real.
---------------------------------------------------------------
Ambrosius: *Cloud of smoke appears and he twirls into existence*
Don: I wore blue before you, so you’ll need to change.
Ambrosius: Ah ha, this is my skin if you haven’t notice.
Don: *Draws sword* Then I guess I’ll just have to skin you.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Ambrosius: *Cloud of smoke appears and he twirls into existence*
Tucker: Yo dude, bdsm night is Thursday you idiot.
Ambrosius: You do know I am an ethereal being of almost unlimited power, right?
Tucker: *draws energy sword* More like a thirsty bitch who can’t keep it in his pants.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Cammie: *Walks in and picks up nugget from the ground*
Ambrosius: *Floats down to study nugget* My my my! What a fascinating contraption you have there.
Cammie: Jesus fuck’n Christ; what the hell are you!?
Ambrosius: *pouts and crosses arms* A being of ultimate power made by the hands of gods; so, you know, nothing special.
------------------------------------------------------------------
Ambrosius: *Cloud of smoke appears and he twirls into existence*
Salem: What plans I have for you.
Ambrosius: If one of them is to find a skin care treatment darling I hate to say but even I have my limits.
Salem: *Grim arms start sprouting from ground* A foolish tool made by foolish gods indeed.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Nomad: *Walks in, wind blowing poncho*
Ambrosius: I can’t make anything unless tell me what it is you want.
Nomad: *Shrugs and waves hands*
Ambrosius: *nods* Alright we can play Pictionary afterwards then.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Caboose: *Walks in holding freckles*
Ambrosius: What an interesting machine you have there. *Floats in for closer look*
Freckles: Proximity warning triggered! Hostile action commencing!
Caboose: No! Bad freckles! Stop it! No hospitable actions inside the house!
Ambrosius: *backs off slowly* Maybe later then.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Valentina: *removes invisibility cloak*
Ambrosius: I hear you like to experiment.
Valentina: I was never one to be tied down by the limits of my body.
Ambrosius: *smiles* If you have some ideas, I’d love to hear them afterwards.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Neo: *Walks in twirling umbrella*
Ambrosius: I don’t know what part of “explain what you want” is being misunderstood, but you people need to actually talk to me for me to make something.
Neo: *Pouts*
Ambrosius: *Sighs* Your people can make a hammer turn into a grenade launcher yet somehow sign language is lost on you; no wonder your species is doomed.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ambrosius: *Cloud of smoke appears and he twirls into existence*
Sarge: I knew this day would come! *cocks shotgun*
Ambrosius: So did I after looking at a calendar, but do go on.
Sarge: I finally get to kill the god of all blues! HEEYA!!!!!!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ambrosius: *Cloud of smoke appears and he twirls into existence*
Toth: The Don will have use of your powers.
Ambrosius: You could as well, if you knew what you wanted.
Toth: *Hesitates* I……I just want them to survive.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Julian: *Hologram appears*
Ambrosius: I’ve not seen one like you before.
Julian: That’s cause I’m one of a kind.
Ambrosius: *smirks* Are you so sure?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ironwood: *Walks in loading gun*
Ambrosius: Well if it isn’t floating city man; what is it this time?
Ironwood: I want you to make me a bomb.
Ambrosius: *stops smirking* And so the cycle begins again.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ambrosius: *Cloud of smoke appears and he twirls into existence*
Dr. Grey: Can I take a sample of you?
Ambrosius: That depends entirely on the reasons behind your need.
Dr. Grey: *Evil glint in helmet* Have you ever heard of a replicator?

Your Last Hope, it Echoes (Val)
Rating: Teen
Word Count: 1.7k
Summary: Kazu is gone. Val doesn't know what to do.
Notes: If they're not going to show us Val's immediate grief, I'm going to do it for them. Hi, I’ve haven’t posted fic for any fandom but R v B since I joined AO3, but here I am, spite’s a powerful force. Obviously spoilers.
He held it together until he saw Kazu’s body.
Until he woke up next to Kazu’s body.
The pod canopy rose and a part of him still expected to hear the same coming from both sides, a sensory memory from so many uploads and downloads. Only Yaz’s pod opened, this time. The unevenness set him off balance, sent his head spinning in circles, and he worried that if he tried to stand then he’d simply collapse again.

Love that we all theorized that the Union made more copies of Chase when we finally found out who Nemesis is, only to let the theory fade out when the comics came and were instead focused on the history and future of Gen:LOCK and it’s technology specifically.
Can’t say we DIDN’T see it coming, but I’m still shocked and betrayed to find out there are entire swaths of Nemesis Holons being deployed and killed over and over again.

Dr. Weller: Would you jump off a bridge if the Team pressured you into doing it?
Chase: Dr. Weller , with all due respect, my mother gave birth to a leader. An innovator. A pioneer.
Chase: I’m the first one off the fucking bridge
