current running hypothesis: plan 9 was the only known case of a host successfully synergising with the artificial mind bc as a preexisting system they already had some experience in how to respond to "hey there's a new person in the headspace"
there's absolutely no canon information that will ever disprove this bc they never even finished that storyline so. but we'd like to try and find proof anyhow
shadowrun, plural
all of this is complicated by the fact that personal reading suggests plan 9 was plural prior to the artificial science whatsit, but without timestamps on the lore it's hard to be sure. it would certainly make a lot more sense if this were the case
in any case, cgl is not responsible for any actual rep here. but y'know. ours now
shadowrun, plural
plan 9 is an interesting character. they're already transhuman and probably genderfluid, but they have like....an artificial headmate? like, canonically, they basically got a second preexisting mind implanted into their head. it's....definitely some kind of plurality, but not uh. not exactly in a way that works outside this setting
that said, plan 9/plan 10 is also the only example of a plural character we're aware of, so it's kinda unsurprising they got stuff wrong about this
This weekend I:
did the climate strike, went to a fundraiser for immigrant protection organizations, joined the Odd Fellows, met other parents to have our kids play together, practiced accordion in the park to a very appreciative audience, responded to my first Rapid Response (anti-ICE) text (I'll tell you all about it sometime)
basically spent all my time outdoors meeting people and away from computers. I was overwhelmed by a strange feeling of... positive participation in society???
