[7:46:46 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: Three.
[7:46:57 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: Well.
[7:46:59 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: Three common ones.
[7:47:15 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: There's hypersensitivity
[7:47:21 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: Which is common and easily treated
[7:47:32 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: No pain process
[7:47:52 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: Which is not so easily treated by can be managed as long as the patient is sure to be aware of all injuries and any damage to their body
[7:48:15 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: There's synesthetic sense formation
[7:48:23 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: Smelling colors, seeing tastes, feeling sounds.
[7:48:31 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: Useful for trackers, generally not even treated.
[7:48:57 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: Malformation four is extreme auto-nomic nervous response syndrome
[7:49:54 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: Essentially small touches even can cause total tonic clonic seizures. Most often, if a person has this, they will be genetically altered at birth in order to destroy the pain sense of their nerves.
[7:50:05 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: It's a better life for them to feel nothing painful, or next to nothing at all.
[7:50:15 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: Then there's Pleasure Pain Confusion Malformation
[7:50:22 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: Tending to lead in most cases to extreme masochism
[7:50:34 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: But in some cases leading to total swap of pain pleasure response
[7:50:42 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: ...it is... treatable.
[7:50:43 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: Barely.
[7:51:37 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: The last one is nervous reversal syndrome, leading to seizures and problems where the brain generates too much bioelectricity and essentially each seizure reorders what nerves mean what.
[7:51:46 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: So a person will try to move their right arm and their left leg will move
[7:52:02 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: It's untreatable but most cursors with it learn to cope, eventually taking only seconds to adjust after a seizure.
[7:52:18 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: It and Pain Pleasure Confusion malformation are the rarest.
[7:52:37 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: In about 1000 cursors, maybe 3 or 4 will have a nervous system malformation
[7:52:42 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: Its incredibly rare to begin with.
[7:53:08 PM] Mirai Baudelaire (Luna): That's...incredible. Wow.
[7:53:27 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: Yeah.
[7:55:59 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: The other option
[7:56:11 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: is that she develops it naturally from experiencing so much pain in her life.
[7:56:58 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: The other option is that its a genetic disorder
[7:57:05 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: But it is triggered by all the pain she experiences
[7:57:08 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: Normally it's dormant
[8:01:56 PM] Mirai Baudelaire (Luna): I think the last option makes sense and still keeps close to the original idea.

Because before the pain and trauma she goes through, there would really be no reason for it to actively manifest.
[8:02:12 PM] Mirai Baudelaire (Luna): Buuuut
[8:02:29 PM] Mirai Baudelaire (Luna): I also like the original idea.
[8:04:25 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: I mean
[8:04:33 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: I just love the idea of Artemis telling almost everyone
[8:04:35 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: On purpose
[8:04:38 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: To humiliate her.
[8:04:41 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: And finally Ronat is like
[8:05:05 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: "Listen, that's something I was clearly horrified to have you learn. I know you get off on being cruel, but for real, why do you have to tell everyone!? It's just... mean."
[8:05:08 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: And Artemis is like
[8:05:24 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: "Is it really? Hmmm. Maybe you should think about it for a while. Say... an hour."
[8:05:26 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: And starts to walk off.
[8:05:30 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: And Ronat is like
[8:05:34 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: "What? Youre leaving?"
[8:05:35 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: And she's like
[8:05:43 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: "Yes. You've annoyed me. I HATE being annoyed."
[8:05:46 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: And Ronat is like
[8:05:55 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: "Youre punishing me for annoying you by... going away?"
[8:06:02 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: And Art smirks over her shoulder and says
[8:06:05 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: "You'll miss me."
[8:06:10 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: So ronat asks
[8:06:14 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: "What are my orders!?"
[8:06:16 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: And Art is like
[8:06:22 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: "Oh, no orders. No orders at all."
[8:06:32 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: So she walks off, and ronat is sitting there on the firing line at the rifle range
[8:06:39 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: And she's like, ten minutes later
[8:06:52 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: "...fuck... I miss her... ;~; This explains a lot... why I always felt so lost..."
[8:06:57 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: So Artemis returns in an hour
[8:07:07 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: And Harris is leaning on a wall behind the firing line, watching
[8:07:12 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: A disassembled rifle in front of him
[8:07:14 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: Art says
[8:07:25 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: "She's still firing? How long has she been at it?"
[8:07:27 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: And he says
[8:08:12 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: "...since you left, according to Timmy. I'm here because she melted a barrel on her assault rifle doing speed fire with accuracy practice. melted it enough a bullet almost got stuck. Blew the barrel open. Nearly blew her hand off."
[8:08:13 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: And Art is like
[8:08:22 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: "...she... wow. Uh. Why?"
[8:08:24 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: He shrugs and says
[8:08:37 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: "Fire at the targets until you don't suck so bad. That was your last order to her."
[8:08:42 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: Artemis stares, and Harris asks
[8:08:58 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: "...are you done punishing her now? She's upset. I don't like her upset, Artemis."
[8:09:03 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: And Art is like
[8:09:42 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: "...to be honest, it was difficult for me to stay away. I did hear a rumor of someone on the firing line constantly unloading and reloading her weapon, emptying it in seconds, calling for new mags... Never stopping or even faltering to hang new targets..."
[8:09:43 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: Silence
[8:09:46 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: Then
[8:09:58 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: "You missed her, Artemis."
[8:10:01 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: "I did."
[8:10:05 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: "She can hear us."
[8:10:07 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: "I know."
[8:10:14 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: Walks up to Ronat, smirks and says
[8:10:18 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: "What have we learned?"
[8:10:25 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: And Ronat jumps out of her seat, straightens her tie and says
[8:11:02 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: "Mistress, you're telling everyone about my condition to impress upon me that I don't need to be ashamed of something that... that does no lasting harm to me or anyone else. You want me to be confident in myself. I missed... I missed you. I'm sorry."
[8:11:06 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: And her hand is all bandaged
[8:11:09 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: And Artemis is like
[8:11:24 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: sighs "You're an idiot. All is forgiven. Punishment is done. Come. We have work to do."
[8:12:25 PM] Mirai Baudelaire (Luna): Wooooow.
[8:12:54 PM] Mirai Baudelaire (Luna): Its kinda sweet, and harsh, and a smidge sad, and good. All at once
[8:13:02 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: Ergo
[8:13:04 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: A perfect punishment
[8:13:10 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: ...because it's hard on both of them.
[8:13:23 PM] Sobaka/Solaka: if it wasn't... Artemis would just be a cunt using a traumatized teenager.
