August Extra - The Misfit System (3-5) (Patreon)

Helloooo Night City...err Patreon subscribers!

It's time for the monthly extra, and as promised, this time it's another 10,000 word (nearly 11,000 actually) follow up on The Misfit System idea from last month. This extends the story enough to, I think, give everyone a more proper feel for the story as a whole. Including a bit of a dip into Vicky struggling with her own morals running distinctly incompatible software with those of Night City. Something that will, hopefully, lead her to grow a bit in time, if I continue this story and manage it right ;-).

Either way, give your feedback on what you think, as I'll be considering after this whether to continue this particular concept or not. If enough people like it, I'll likely throw up a poll to see if people want it to take the Author's Choice slot next month, which would double up its size to a bit over 40k. That would be enough to actually post it elsewhere (I have a minimum 30k size rule before I do that), and possibly add it to the monthly poll.

Doing that wouldn't happen until at least October, and I'm hoping to finish up Displaced Hero sometime between December-February. At which point one of the existing stories will move off the poll and into a 'guaranteed monthly update' slot. Just keep that in mind before you knee-jerk reject the idea of adding another story to the poll :-p.

Anyway! For now, enjoy more of Vicky's experiences in Night City with the Misfit System! As usual, the new bits are attached to this poll in various formats. As of now, there are also Master Files for this story in the Master Threads Pinned Post as well. So you can get the complete current story there, if you skipped out on reading the first chapters last month ;-). Author's Notes will follow in the comments shortly.
