His home is neat, decorated with a few posters from his days playing in bands, and he has a nice bedroom area and a small kitchenette. It's his private space. It's clean, well-kept, and cozy. There's even a sitting room area with a television, sofas, and some gaming equipment for whenever he actually has the time for relaxation. His musical instruments are there as well. Not that he spends much time at home, of course, but he enjoys it whenever he's there.</p><p>(I'm including a screenshot photo from <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/Cyberpunk2077" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Cyberpunk2077</span></a> for reference, just to help.)</p><p><a href="https://mindly.social/tags/WritingCommunity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>WritingCommunity</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/TheCityOfOpulence" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TheCityOfOpulence</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/DigitalDystopiaSeries" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DigitalDystopiaSeries</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/SFF" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SFF</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/ScienceFiction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ScienceFiction</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/Fantasy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Fantasy</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/Worldbuilding" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Worldbuilding</span></a></p>

Single. F*ckin'. Day. I'm constantly terrified. Does it hold me back? Never. Could it? Yes, it very well could, choom, but I choose not to let it. I'm capable of terrible things and yet I choose to instead do /good/ sh*t. I mean, /good/ in terms of the Midnight City but hey. I might be a gang leader but I choose to help the little people, you know? I give back when I can. As for things that I'm physically capable of, in terms of fighting, yeah... Sometimes it scares me.

Does it factor into your WIP in any way?</p><p>It doesn't factor into the story, but here we go. Here's just a handful of the characters in the series.</p><p>FYI: Gang members and those in the criminal world tend to be on the thinner side, only because food with nutrition is more expensive and therefore harder to find (or afford). Cyberpunk works don't feature happy and peaceful worlds, after all.</p><p>• Dr. Death (Antagonist / Villain): He's well-toned, nice body. Everyone falls for him. (Yuck.) <br>• Alexios (MC): He's muscular but also on the taller side (and covered in scars and cybernetic parts). <br>• Noona (SC): She's scary and intimidating despite being thinner. No one f*cks with her.<br>• Junk (SC): He's a bit fluffy, on the chunky side, and he's adorable for it. <br>• Trick (SC later turned MC): He's thin and graceful. <br>• Dante (SC): He's tall (even taller than Alexios) and slim. Mr. Tall, Dark, and Handsome in every way. He's in shape. <br>• Cosmia (SC): Short and well-toned (especially her arms). She works out. Often. Being a bar owner isn't the only thing she does at work. She's also a bouncer of sorts. </p><p><a href="https://mindly.social/tags/WritingCommunity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>WritingCommunity</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/TheCityOfOpulence" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TheCityOfOpulence</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/DigitalDystopiaSeries" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DigitalDystopiaSeries</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/SFF" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SFF</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/ScienceFiction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ScienceFiction</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/Fantasy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Fantasy</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/Worldbuilding" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Worldbuilding</span></a></p>

It can affect the brain in the myriad of ways. Dante's family have suffered a lot in the past, and his father was one such case. The man went insane from a virus on his chip.

If so, what sorts of things? Do they have a preferred genre of choice? </p><p>Alexios reads. In his spare time, he likes to leaf through adventure stories. (Romance novels too, but that's something he'll NEVER tell another living soul, not even Junk.) During workdays, he spends time searching (and reading) the system database and combing through the warehouse archives for acquired books and other trinkets. It's all for black market clients, and it depends on whatever they want. Alexios' gang sell antiques and oddities to customers willing to pay for their desired items. If there's something they don't actually have, Alexios and his gang will do everything they can to find it for them. But yes, Alexios enjoys reading in his downtime.

His lines are excellent, but I'm biased. He isn't as much of a (noticeable) sleazeball as you would expect, honestly. It comes as a surprise, I'm sure, with the way I talk about him. He attracts women for a reason. That's the extent of it for me, though. Everything else about him is disgusting. </p><p><a href="https://mindly.social/tags/WritingCommunity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>WritingCommunity</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/TheCityOfOpulence" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TheCityOfOpulence</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/DigitalDystopiaSeries" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DigitalDystopiaSeries</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/SFF" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SFF</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/ScienceFiction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ScienceFiction</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/Fantasy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Fantasy</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/Worldbuilding" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Worldbuilding</span></a></p>

Tell us about their voice. Discuss speech patterns, vocabulary, slang, or their way of speaking, if you like.</p><p>Sorry but as a massive wrestling fan, I just have to say... "619! Booyaka, booyaka, that's my pueblo!" God, I love Rey Mysterio so much. </p><p>Alexios Jace comes from a planet that I've mentioned many times before called New Glasgow, where a group of people (Scottish families, obviously) left Earth as it was dying and claimed a habitable world for their own. That particular planet was destroyed by the Syndicate, and Alexios was the sole survivor. Now living on Citune, he's the only one with a voice quite like his. He has a distinctly Scottish accent, setting him apart from everyone else around. His slang is a mix of cyperpunk and Glaswegian. While he says "choom" like everyone else, he always throws around "mate" rather easily as well. That's just a quick example. I will say, on top of things, he's always a mardy, grumpy man, and he tends to grumble a lot. His voice is deeper, thick with an accent, and everyone automatically assumes he's pissed off. Go figure.</p><p><a href="https://mindly.social/tags/WritingCommunity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>WritingCommunity</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/TheCityOfOpulence" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TheCityOfOpulence</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/DigitalDystopiaSeries" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DigitalDystopiaSeries</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/SFF" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SFF</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/ScienceFiction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ScienceFiction</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/Fantasy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Fantasy</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/Worldbuilding" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Worldbuilding</span></a></p>

Spooky Panda 🇺🇦<p><a href="https://mindly.social/tags/PennedPossibilities" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>PennedPossibilities</span></a> 618 — Is your SC prone to jealousy? How might they handle any envious feelings?</p><p>Dr. Arcturius "Dante" Cason hates when the woman he loves is shown attention from anyone. He would never say it, would never voice the words aloud, but he'll burn with jealousy as he watches on. All of this is ridiculous, of course, because he'll never tell her how he feels... Maybe one day, if he ever gets up the nerve. Until then, he'll just suffer in silence. (Also, I've never mentioned this woman's name here. It's a big spoiler for Book 2.) </p><p>As for jealousy in any other way, Dante never experiences it. He's a fantastic doctor and others look up to /him/, not the other way around. "Workplace jealousy" never happens. Dante's Inferno is a med shop that everyone frequents. </p><p><a href="https://mindly.social/tags/WritingCommunity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>WritingCommunity</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/TheCityOfOpulence" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TheCityOfOpulence</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/DigitalDystopiaSeries" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DigitalDystopiaSeries</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/SFF" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SFF</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/ScienceFiction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ScienceFiction</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/Fantasy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Fantasy</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/Worldbuilding" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Worldbuilding</span></a></p>
