Fics like The Care & Keeping of Augmented Humans

From what I understand, the human brain is basically an electrical meatball. A very sophisticated meatball, to be sure, but still – organic. That organic human neural tissue – unless very carefully cultivated under very specific laboratory parameters – doesn’t always play nicely with the non-organic bits. And even then, see example: me. That wasn’t even including the fact that Gurathin had received his augments in the Corporation Rim and company equipment – see again: me – wasn’t exactly premium quality.
