So I've made an executive decision some people probably aren't going to be happy with.

I've decided to remove the ability for me - Thorn, that is, my sona - to infect organic beings. No more getting into fleshlings' bodies and minds and corrupting them like computer programs, developing those telepathic-ish links, doing direct mind control and stuff. I know a lot of people enjoyed this aspect of the character, but honestly? It's an interesting idea in theory that hasn't felt right to me for a while. It's also an ability I very rarely actually used for art, stories, RPs and the like because I'm just not that into it. I like being a computer virus for all the cool wacky tech stuff and that's a big part of my kink, so it got pretty boring having a lot of people want me to just... pop out of a screen to fuck and mind control them like some demon or something. What's the point there, really? This change allows me to focus in more on what I really like about my sona to begin with - plus it makes me considerably less overpowered and nonsensical, haha!

That doesn't mean I can't interact with organics, of course. I'm keeping my ability to hop out into the real world with the hard-light body. I can still have sex with fleshies, theoretically, but it won't actually have any lasting effects. Probably feels weird as hell though. And there's no reason I couldn't use tech to hypnotize or brainwash people with screens, visors or headsets, audio, et cetera. Also - hacking cyborg implants/augments/prostheses is still totally on the table.

Sorry to anyone disappointed by this change, but I thank you in advance for your understanding!
