Yeah but don't, you'll just drain my batteries. Cost me a fortune for something that would power a limb for 36 hours. [someone else's fortune, though.]
[she runs her organic hand lovingly down the inside casing, stroking the carbon fiber shell and lightly touching the twisted braids of wires running along the core.]
My own design, yes. This is the first version to actually be installed, though there was a working model before it. KPLASA v1.1, software version 5.10.6, if we're counting. The leg is 1.0, software 1.1.2. I'll start writing neurological patches for it once the nerve grafts have actually healed. I can move my ankle and flex my knee if I think about it, but I've only been able to wiggle two toes so far.
[say what you want about the surgery, the implants themselves are beautifully done. The arm at least seems not to have any lag time, and the movements of Kit's fingers look almost natural, if a bit uncanny valley.]
The best part are the implants in my head, though.
