Summary
It's months before Connor realizes that the damage to his regulator never fully repaired from when it was torn out and thrown across the room. It's months more before he realizes how hard it is to live with system damage that just gets worse, and worse, until he can barely work, or smile, or think-
But it's fine. He doesn't need to ask New Jericho for a replacement part. Really.
He's fine.

Summary
Spamton lowered his gaze to the tiny being nestled in his palms, cradling her with trembling care.The hatchling was no bigger than a coffee mug, all soft downy feathers the colour of fresh paper. Two thin antennae, tipped in faint blue, curled up from her small forehead, quivering at every sound. When she breathed, a faint shimmer of static danced across her down, a living echo of the glow that had been inside the Pipis. Moments ago he’d had nothing; now, it felt as though he was holding the world within his hands.

Summary
He became aware of it early, only a bit after he’d adjusted to his other, more obvious changes. He’d been running from a Werewire and cracked his head against the ground. It should have been a hard enough hit to have his skull splitting with agony. Instead, it had been next to nothing, barely more noticeable than a day-old papercut. He’d thought maybe it was the adrenaline. But even hours later, once the fear of the fight had worn off, he still felt nothing but a mild itch around what he learned, thanks to the reflective surface of a shattered laptop he found in one of the dumpsters, was a crack extending all the way from above where his right eyebrow had once been down to the bridge of his nose.
OR: After finally reuniting with Tenna and getting to feel safety for the first time in over a decade, Spamton gets the chance to actually absorb the consequences of some of the other parts of his transformation. Like the fact that having your nerves either pulled out or wrapped in plastic instead of skin deadens your sense of touch, and takes away all the comfort that goes with it.
