Introduction
"Let's see if everything is running normal." He says and types something into the computer. Suddenly, you automatically say "all functions normal" without intending to. The doctor who was working on the face picks it up and walks over to you. As he seems to be motioning the backside of the face towards you, you black out again.
The next thing you know is that you wake up in a bed in a hospital room. You can feel your body, but something feels different.
A doctor approaches you and says: "Welcome back to the land of the living. You had a bad accident and were practically burnt to a crisp, however most of your brain was still intact. There were however complications. Your DNA wasn't sufficient to grow a body like your old one, so we gave you a fully cybernetic one. On the papers it says you are male. But I am sorry to say that there was a mixup and you now have a female body instead. Your insurance will only pay for this body and the hospital isn't willing to pay another 100 grand for a new male body when you now have a perfectly functioning body. Instead we will give you 20,000 in compensation and maybe you might be able to get a male organ attached."
You are in one way angered but in another way thankful you hadn't died. But where on from here when you had an accidental sex change?
However one person in the vehicle didn't make it.
There is also another problem: You don't have all your memories. You don't really know who you are anymore, yet you still have learned skills. So you practically have a new identity.
Setting: Tokyo
Residence: As further compensation, you have received a small apartment in the New Tokyo residential district. Your friends have received apartments in the same building. Each apartment is fully furnished and has a large window with a small balcony.
Your body: Your female cyborg body isn't perfect as borders between parts are somewhat visible but aside from that you look pretty much like a real human. Your body can last about 50 years without a recharge but you will be reminded to recharge at 50%, 25%, 10% and 2%. If you fail to recharge on time, you will die. You now have the ability to download knowledge and your body is superhuman in terms of endurance, learning and perception while your maximum strength is comparable to a human who regularly does sports, however it is upgradeable. You require to at least eat supplements and regularly drink fluids so that your body can supply your brain with nutrients. Generally you and your friends still have 70 to 90% of your original brains (practically what could be saved or what is necessary). You can modify your body in various ways such as hair color, eye color, tech and some physical features.
Jobs: You and your friends can get part-time jobs as store clerks or hostesses or full time jobs as things like teachers, teaching assistants, technicians or office workers.
Starting point: Hospital lobby selecting starter clothes and about to get picked up to go to apartments.

The Story So Far... Write a Post » as written by 3 authors
The idea of turning into a car or having like 40 fingers...Yeah She was not tech savvy, all she needed was nice food, nice drink and plenty of places to chill out and have fun.
“But I don’t want to watch tv without external device…” She muttered as she followed Aoi.
Once inside all she saw was shelves and some employee's, on one of the shelves game console caught her attention, next was some kind of music maker.
“Music, and games…that’s my thing I think, what about you Aoi, Tatsuda?”
"Excuse me, why are there twice different kinds of processors and again two different kinds of processor infrastructures?" She sked the attendant.
"Well there are coprocessors and main processors. Coprocessors are responsible for you being able to use your body. It is pretty much a replacement of the brain stem which maintains basic bodily functions. Most full body cyborgs had their brain stems removed as they are incompatible with the body as it cannot control its functions. So that is why we have coprocessors. Then the main processors are for people who have had accidents severe enough that they could only maintain their memories. So the main processor helps recover their personalities and function with those memories." The attendant said.
"So sort of like me, where I basically have only half of my original brain or less." Aoi said.
"Yes." The attendant said. "Then the infrastructures. The older infrastructures you will still find in normal PCs. These are also used in older models. Nowadays they have more cons than pros as they need a lot of power, arent too thermally efficient and cyborgs fitted with them occasionally experience emotional instability or sometimes even seem too robotic because the processor "forgets" to emulate the emotions. Newer models use quantum computing disks which usually in modern standard models have around 128 qubits which is more that enough. Due to the function of quantum computing, you do not need to mod the processors but only replace them if they cause problems. Usually they lock about 40 of the qubits in stock, but I can unlock them so that you can have more processing power and memory as qubits function as both memory and processors. You still tend to have an external memory device for security purposes such as to prevent hacking or viruses. But usually we use normal memory sticks for that since quantum computing is not always compatible with regular files."
"Cool." Aoi said. "Well then. How about you unlock two qubits and give me better external memory. I would need it to make video games. I am also thinking about getting a higher resolution projector eye and a more powerful sound output in case I need to be the DJ at a party and really want banging music."
"Well, I recommend the 10 petabyte memory or if you have the money we have exabyte (1000 petabytes/1 million terabytes) memory. I have a 128M projector eye or if you take two you can practically create holograms. And we have a speaker that can safely produce 110 db with a powerful bass without causing damage to your body. With the two qubits and the 10 petabyte memory, that will cost around 2000. If you take the exabyte memory, we are looking at 3000." The attendant said.
"Well I do have to make investments, so I will take the bigger memory." Aoi said.
"Okay. We will need about ten minutes to calibrate and prepare the parts and we can get to modding." The attendant said. She turned to Kali and Tatsuda. "In the meanwhile, can I be of assistance to you?"
Once employee focused on her and Tatsuda, Kali was unsure of what she wanted to get from here.
“I doubt you have what I’d like so, umm…No thank you.”
Employee simply smiled before replying.
“But I’m sure there will be something you’d like, for example we have a wide variety of mods specified for music making and…”
At that point it was too much, Kali raised hands, and shook head.
“No, you misunderstood, I tend to check everything somewhere before shopping…I think…or maybe not everything? Honestly I don’t remember.” She gave employee a weak smile, to which employee replied with bright smile and nod.
Finally she’ll leave me, she overhead me talking about music...
Yeah...There was a reason she stuck with sports...She did not have to calculate the Quarentine root of pie or know aerodynamics and all that brainy stuff. Just good old fashioned sports, hit a ball really hard, or run with a ball really fast...Yeah it was mostly that simple. Compared to computers it was like comparing a small plate of noodles to a massive plate of noodles topped with meat sauce and meatballs...If only She felt hunger...That would make eating and feeling satisfied all the sweeter...
Back to reality for the time being, the employee walked up to them to see if they required any assistance. She simply shrugged in reply before speaking. “Just browsing with freinds.” She replied.
Once in the backroom, Aoi was told to lay down on a comfortable looking chair you would normally find in a psychiatrists office. "Please remove your face." The attendant said. Aoi replied: "How do I do that?" "Check your files and you will find out." The attendant said.
Aoi found the files and followed the instructions. Her face retracted revealing the inside of her head. (Like pic in OOC thread) The attendant then did the modifications. Once the qubits were unlocked, Aoi felt a surge in thinking power. It felt as if a burden had been removed. After they finished, her face snapped back on and she left the room.
Up front she paid the credits with the swipe of her hand over a sensor and an internal signal confirmed the pay.
She turned to the others. "With this, my work should be a lot easier."
"So could we go get that curry, I really want curry..."
"I think I will have a spicy curry with quail eggs and katsu both." Aoi said looking at the outside menu. "And a cold glass of beer."
Kali had so many dishes she could choose from, but there was still one favorite ting she wanted.
“Curry with chicken! I hope they add cinnamon stick as well, not all cooks add it so…”
Then she remembered about drinks.
“Oh, and I’ll take simple glass of water, what about you Tatsuda?”
Oh She was looking forward to some good food...Especially after being cooped up with hospital food...Some good outside food...Now this was life! Chilling with some pals! A nice drink and good warm food! What would make this better would be feeling full after a nice jog...
The food was done almost instantly as the cook had already heated curry sauce and rice and the additionals where just a matter of frying. He put the food and drinks on the table.
"This looks really good." Aoi said. "Now let's see if we can taste normally like normal humans." Aoi put a spoonful in her mouth and she felt the flavor burst in her mouth. "Well they did that well."
“Delicious! I want more! Umm, I mean I’d like to eat some more, what about you two?”
That she ate it so quickly could mean few things, and one for sure – she loved that curry.
“Well, now I’m curious what exactly would happen when one reaches that limit…”
Seconds after her words, another portion of curry chicken was ordered.
"There might be a media shop somewhere here or there could be a megastore at the train station where we might find books or mechandise." Aoi continued. She thought of finding manga to read or getting mochi and melon soda.
It was sad no one wanted to know, but it could be easy to predict possible outcomes of eating too much, so understandable and weird that she wanted to test it out.
“Umm, anyway I’ll just finish this portion, and we can go somewhere.”
