Been sitting on this cyber whatever pic in endless drafts since August 2020 and still can’t really finish it up. My brain is so fried I can’t settle enough to read fic or draw, so here you go? It’s a later-era CCEO AU thing so older Rhys + AI Jack. [Eta: minor 2023 edits, see text below.]
CCEO AU, some years deep in the Rhack Zone. Sleeping pretty inside Helios, ten light years from your good bed, wearing the backdoored gift kidney from AI bf that’s 90% just scraping failed backups of your meat brain into his weird glowy datacore. It came with a matching plushie.
[Putting these here to bring the AU all into one tag: https://sf-bl.tumblr.com/tagged/cyber%20ceos mostly Rhack, totally out-of-sequence]
PS: While discussing this recently, I had to go and re-read PoisonJack’s fic Payment Plan, which is a story about Rhys needing a kidney from Jack, only much more amusing than this picture.
Edit: updated this a bit to make the upper part light instead of dark, and tweak a few things. If you want the original with the black cyber goop coming from Rhys’s head, then you’ll find it under the ‘Keep Reading’ below.
