APPROVED cw: needles and surgical body horror

The roomba and hummingbird drone will be delivered to his room. When Ryoji enters his room, he will also notice the option to style his room the way he wants.

As for the surgeries ... Two at once? Why do you hate yourself, sweet child?

Ryoji will be summoned to the medical bay where he will meet Dr. Spim and Alex. The surgeries will then be explained to them. They will be strapped to a table and Dr. Spim will perform a minor brain surgery to access their implant and introduce nanobots that will alter their neurotransmitters and hormones at a microscopic level. A cut will also be made in their body to access their pancreas to introduce a small implant that will assist in altering their hormones. This will not be done with any anesthetics as it is an elective procedure and LILITH is saving anesthetic drugs for life-saving medical procedures. If they agree to the conditions, the surgery will proceed.

As the upgrade installs, their body will go through some difficult changes as it gets used to its new abilities. On top of the pain from the surgery, they will go through a few hours of disorientation, where their senses will go into overdrive. Their sense of time will become warped, and minutes can feel like hours, or hours can feel like seconds. Their senses will flip between being over heightened and completely numb. This means that sometimes a light touch can feel like fire, and at other times they might find it difficult to see or hear. As the body adjusts, this will go on for a few days, so it's best to rest and stay somewhere safe.

As always, they will be able to sleep in the medical bay or in their room.

Some notes regarding their new teleportation ability:
- They can teleport to anywhere within a maximum radius of 10km.
- They cannot teleport to areas off limits, such as the main LILITH offices, the research labs, or LEVEL 000.
- There are safeguards in place to prevent teleporting into walls or other people/objects. If that happens, they will be beamed back to where they had come from immediately and will feel extremely nauseous.
- Unless there's a glitch, their clothes and small things they are holding can come with them.
- There will be a 'feeling out' period where they will need to train their skills. This means they might teleport to the wrong places or lose their clothes sometimes (there will continue to be glitches afterward too). Dr. Spim will tell them it helps to have a visual map of where you want to go prior to teleporting.

Given that Ryoji chose to have two surgeries at once, another unwanted aftereffect will be seen as well. For the period of one day, as their new implants interact with each other, a glitch will occur. This glitch will completely fry their brain, causing them to have temporary amnesia for a few days. Ryoji will not know who/what they are or where they came from. They can have some select memories and go off from there. They might also remember some people they have met in Neo Tokyo.

If this doesn't work, let us know!
