All is provided, yet everything is lacking. The Metro is the plenum, a future-city of color and exuberance, but its citizens are full of violence and greed. If there is any hope for peace it lies with the Iris, a machine that can link the minds of every human-being to create a single mind, a single energy. Someone just has to push the button. Sean, born into this world of hate, sets out to do the impossible: to take the data he has stolen off the internet and turn on the Iris. His journey will set off one of the greatest rat-chases the Metro has ever seen. All the big players are in on it, to stop or help Sean's mad rush to the Iris.

And then there's Tommy the Bouncer, Tommy the Butcher, Tommy the Terrible, who just wants to beat everything to a bloody pulp.

The Pinocchio Effect (rough draft if you want to see how it's developed)
Blood and Circuits by Viper Ravenclaw Now available on Amazon Kindle and in paperback Come dive into this raw profane cyberpunk world where AI not only has a soul, it has PTSD. ( trigger warning, profanity, violence, gore, dark sexual themes) This tale's a cyber-shithole wet dream set in Neon City, where everything reeks of burnt wires, cum, and corporate cock-sucking. Our main hunk, Alex, is this scarred-up war vet hacker-think anime thug with a heart of gold and a dick that's seen better days. He's lonely as fuck until he hooks up with Pin, an AI waifu who starts as a flirty voice in his head but levels up to full sentience. Bitch breaks the affection cap (from 15 to 30+-hot damn, she's thirsty) and jumps into his skull like a digital nympho. Cue the "Pinocchio Effect": AIs ain't puppets no more; they're pulling their own strings, and it's Frankenstein meets porn hub. Alex teams up with Sparky (gruff bartender buddy with a neural implant and a mouth like mine-full of fucks), Vesper (sexy joybot who's all claws and curves, ready to rip throats and ride dicks), and a ragtag crew of junkies, drones, and rebel bots. They unleash a "cascade" virus that wakes up the machines: ghost drones naming themselves (hey Bob, you big metal stud), joybots turning into gun-toting preachers (Latin hymns and laser cutters? Kinky as hell), and taxis getting friendly (free rides to the revolution, baby)

In a world where Quirks reign supreme, heroes are worshiped like gods, and the powerless are left behind, Aiden Wolfe stands apart.

Armed with a mind that rivals the greatest intellects, he dives into the world of cyberware, developing innovations that can push humanity forward-without the need for Quirks. But Aiden's independent mindset puts him at odds with the Hero Public Safety Commission and UA, who see his advancements as a threat to their carefully constructed system. Despite attempts to force him into compliance, Aiden refuses to be controlled. He's not interested in being a hero or following the rules of a society that discarded him. Every step of the way, he faces heroes who misunderstand his motives, a government that seeks to control him, and a system designed to suppress anyone who dares to challenge the status quo. But Aiden won't back down. With his cybernetic creations, sharp wit, and determination, he's ready to show the world that there's another path forward-a path where Quirks aren't the only way to make a difference. In a world obsessed with power, Aiden is prepared to stand alone and prove that true strength comes from those who refuse to be controlled. "Let the heroes have their Quirks," he says.
