Jay doesn't dirty talk a lot, as he's more busy with his moans'n'groans but some words and a few praises will definitely slip out of his bratty mouth mid-sex, like 'you look so good underneath me', 'don't stop', and how good it feels in general. Post-sex he likes to recap what he can actually recall and teases enzo with that he cannot wait to do it again with his pretty lopsided smirk on his lips.

First it's Ryder and at the very start Thyjs does in fact stop him when he thinks it's too much/too fast as he needs a bit time to adjust but when they are further into their relationship most of the time it is Thyjs who iniciates their sexual activities. And how Thyjs does it is often very casual and direct as well. If he feels the need to want sex, he goes to Ry and tells him exactly that. Depending on where they are he will tell it so only Ry can hear it and when they are alone like just normal conversation. This can even be right in one of their normal conversations e.g. in the morning in the kitchen. Like there's a switch you flip and Thyjs is "Seks? Now— right here in de keuken." At the beginning Ry will often look at him like a lost puppy for a moment as he never quite thought that Thyjs is so directly in everything (besides being incredibly curious as well) plus the loose thrown in Dutch words make it often a little funny. But ofc Ryder doesn't say no as sex is one of his favorite activities.

I can imagine that Jay, after having said he loves Enzo, he was a bit shocked by himself actually in that moment as he never said those words before to anybody else. Yet it felt right for him to be said out aloud. He must have gotten a bit reddish in the face as well and maybe tried to hide it. Best option: kiss Enzo!! jkdfhdkhkdg

Thyjs confesses first because Ryder wouldn't dare to do it as he thinks Thyjs just sees him as a best buddy. It wasn't planned though because they accidentally kissed, with Thyjs also iniciating it first (in a rather drunken and tired mind after a long night out with the team/friends). He backs off and wants to go away but knows it was stupid so Ry suggests they should talk and they do it on the rooftop of the building where their Glen apartment is. Ry lets Thyjs talk as long as he needs and then Ry is the one who initiates the second kiss that finally makes them be toegther — thats the short form of it I have written in 17 pages you may or may not get to read one day. My proecess is long especially with 'releasing' my end product into the wild I struggle with the most

Vijay rarely gets jealous. He's the one dude with almost zero jealousy. If he feels it could be jealousy though he's quick to talk about it if the situation is alright for it. even if it is tense he might try as he does want problems to be solved as soon as possible.

Actually the lower back. Start to touch him there after a little massage with your hands on his shoulders and upper back, then go down to his lower back, massage and proceed to kiss him right above his waistline. He will love it and relax right into your arms. Depending on how you want to start working your way it will build up eventually some sexual tension.

Vijay prefers to be let alone when he's doing focused netrunning, doesn't matter if for fun or for work. Mostly it isn't for work tho. He wants his lone time when he plays his own created gaming and world building in his safe micronet. And to do with friends: watch movies, listen to 80s classics and dance, party with his friends, be intimate with his lover and spend time togehter doing things both like/are into doing. Vijay also prefers not having to go alone to the Medtech for check ups. He's always afraif of receiving bad news and wants to have someone with him. Same goes for when he feels unwell. He will go nuts alone sometimes thinking the worst could happen to him, so he wil ldefinitely call someone to come by or if he could come over to them instead. Vijay doesn#t like to be and feel alone. He hates it. But he knows sometimes he needs it to load up his empty social batteries or when 100% focus is needed in netrunning.

Vijay prefers day as he feels he gets more private stuff done even though he's not an early bird (wakes up mostly around 1pm). Nighttime for him means mostly work — merc work. There are day work exceptions tho. You can say he's comfortable with both but still he would always prefer daytime over night time.

Jay's favorite store to be in is practically any store that sells awesome cars. He will be inspecting every car and even think about what could be the best way to steal one of them. His least favorite store is anything that sells healthy products.

The sound deers are making. They are such cute and even majestic creatures and then they do this.

Thyjs needs his daily dosage of Militech soldier training. When he gets up first he does is go jogging. Also trains with a box sack to practise his dodging but that isn't enough for an Ex-Militech and KCT soldaat! So either he goes alone or with Ryder or even Arki and does some assault course he and the boys built up in an empty industrial site to stay fit. Often they train together and exercise so they stay skilled and fit for merc work. Thyjs though is the one who trains most and each day.

Hizumi's ideal work environment is definitely not down in the streets. They prefer to work and operate from roofs and other higher points so they can overlook everything. It's mainly because they don't feel safe on the ground in Night City. Rooftops give them some shelter so whenever Hizumi works on something (also counts for training) they do it on a rooftop. Light is not really needed and sounds are less noisy on the roof as well. They are not in need of other people but they do enjoy when e.g. Ryder joins them for sword fight practise as both use blades (Ry is only mantis tho, while Hizumi wields katana/tanto).

That would be this song:

Falco is, like Ryder, a Techno(ise) connoisseur and he went to his first techno(ise) party in his teens already (unlike Ryder) and this song is one of the first one that sucked him into this world for real. It made him start wanting to create his own music and in general he's got lots of good memories of partying in Cologne to this song. Even today it's on his playlist as the last played song before he goes off the stage.

That would be his former girlfriend Reva he has been together with in Portland before he changed his life and moved to Night City. Reva fell into a hopeless cyberspychosis caused by adding more and more chrome to her body that was more like cheap scrap metal infected with lots of malware and at a certain point it took away her entire humanity. Once V noticed in his own drugged mind (as he used to take blue glass) that something is not right with her anymore, he tried to save her so hard. To talk her out of adding more and get it checked before installing. She grew very violent because of it and nearly killed V one day with her Mantis Blades (hence he's got the throat cyberware) so he had to defend himself to stay alive by uploading a brainware blowout to her in self defense. He's traumatized forever by that and has nightmares about it. Reva is a good example why Vijay is so concerned about his best friend Ryder as Ryder too walks at the edge of Cyberpsychosis but the difference between Ry and Reva is that Ry wants help to get rid of his problems, Reva didn't. Vijay will do everything to save Ryder. The installed mod is only a temporary help and also a safe option for V (as he fears out of control Ry wth blades out as well -> ptsd trauma) until they find a solution.

Thyjs is pragmatic and goal-oriented, values discipline, structure and rules, aligning himself with authority figures to maintain societal order. He does not care about what others think of his actions, he only cares about his actions being correct according to his moral code. But he dos not lecture his code to others. Moral decisions don’t come into the equation for him so even if he hurts others in carrying out his duty, he feels barely anything. It’s just business. So, when it comes to taking a life, Thyjs may do so if it aligns with the rules and laws he follows (aka Militech), even if it seems morally ambiguous. His actions are guided by a commitment to a well-ordered society, and he may prioritize the greater good over individual moral considerations. Because Thyjs as a Lawful Neutral can appear to be emotionless in following his laws it is easy for him to appear Lawful Evil. However, unlike Lawful Evil, he does not do it for enjoyment, nor is he seeking to spread evil in society. There's also the fact that some of the combat drugs he took infected his decisions. Thyjs will eliminate others while defending his allies. In fact, he will follow any order given to him by a person in a position of power in the system of order that he follows. He was raised to be like this since he was a child. When in society, Thyjs will always act as is fitting for his role and position in society and expects others to do the same. As an ally, he is honest and trustworthy and will never break promises.

Ryder has a very high pain tolerance. That has mostly to do with his Berserk system as it compensates the taken damage for more strength but even before he installed that cyberware, he somehow learned to endure pain more or less, both physically and mentally as neither his childhood nor his young adulthood were painless. Beast also inflicts a lot of pain to him, especially when he's not able to controll it and is doomed to watch it using him. It's hard to describe this pain he's feeling. But coming back to physical pain, e.g. during fights. No matter how hard he will be slammed against something he will get up and continue to fight as said berserk helps him to compensate and ignore it for a certain time spawn. He already broke several rips without knowing, even tho he's got dermal armor as protection installed. When he eases back down only then he might feel something at least distorted when it's not broken. He won't be whiny about it tho – it's the contrary, he acts like it's nothing. Vijay (and later Thyjs) will have to command him to stay in bed and recover.

Hizumi has empathy for people that have same or similar interests as them. If you are totally into mythical creatures or even into their home country Japan, Hizumi will consider to like you faster than normal. They only like those with a good heart and soul and who appreciate their weird self as Hizumi likes to not talk mostly. So if you are someone who appreciates just their presence without feeling the need to constantly talk about certain topics they will appreciate you lots.

Jaysen views the world like a western – just in a modern setting. You have the outlaws (the bad gangers), you have the bankers (corporates), you have the sheriff (ncpd) and you have the bounty hunters (mercs). Only the strongest survive in it and a good bounty hunter knows how to get around and how to earn money. He's got an optimisitic world view and thinks all will play into his hands somehow and that he's too clever to be caught or locked up as his netrunner skills are above that of a normal runner and he will always find an escape route. And even bad days don't let him be pessimistic, he knows after bad days comes good ones as well.

With him not murdering anyone? Well, he hacked numerous people and programmed their brains to make them murder each other. Does that count then? Other than that I cannot think of something better. He once hacked himself into the NCPD security net when he was bored during the time he was doomed to stay in a netrunner chair in the HQ. He caused an entire blackout with prison cells all opening that held some cyberpsychos in there who ofc tried to get out violently. They needed to call Max Tac back in. It's definitely not the worst he's done but the worst non lethal in his career as cop.

Vijay tends to be guided by his own moral code rather than strict adherence to the law, and he believes that individuals should be free to make their own decisions as long as they do not harm others. But he follows a few law rules still; e.g. he sees it as it is not for him to decide to kill a person bc they murdered someone else. As a merc V would always hand them over to the law in the first place. He acts based on his moral compass, which is guided by the desire to help others and promote good in the world. He also has a strong sense of personal responsibility for his own actions and takes a balanced approach to problem-solving, weighing the pros and cons of each situation. There is a difficulty with morally grey choices: Vijay as a mostly neutral good character may find it challenging to navigate morally ambiguous situations, as he is more likely to seek a solution that benefits the greater good. This may as well lead to internal conflict or even trouble with fellow party members in some situations (he's the only one who goes first with "thou shall not kill, whiel the rest of the team kills either mercilessly or when the situation is so tricky it's the only way to do).

Ryder may look like he would do that but he certainly would not. The burden he's got to carry on his shoulders each day sort of feels like there was deal made with an evil netloard anyways – only the didn't ask him if he wants to.

His charges not only would be, they have occured in the past: – for electrifying a commanding officer almost deadly because the dude has been very inappropriate* to his assigned recruits. *Thyjs doesn't tolerate outdated drill behavior that is nothing but bullying the newbie soldiers for the own ego and because of being of a higher rank. - for having shocked a potential taliban member during interrogation so hard they fell into a cardiac arrest but have been brought back immediately by Thyjs using his electric cybernetic hand as defibrillator* *the captive took no real damage though but this wasn't the given order to do so, yeah, charged for that – accidental explosion of an ammunition depot caused by his grenade launcher during a field training session* * This happened when Thyjs had his cyberarm and the launcher brand new unable to fully control it yet. Noone died but nontheless he got charged for it as the whole depot with tons of ammunition exploded.

Unlike his brother Vijay, Jaysen mostly does what benefits him and follows his own moral compass, which, although good, may not agree with that of society. He is keen to do good in the world in the first place, and protects the freedom of others. He often does what feels right for him, regardless of what the law is telling – therefore it is no wonder he quit his job as NCPD officer fast. He won't harm innocent people and has respect towards others who work against evil and corporates that restrict the freedom of the people. He can be pretty reckless in certain situations. That's why he's labeled as chaotic good as well. If there is something he wants, he will get it asap even if he has to leave some corpses behind.

There are days were Ryder brings up the question if he's inherently a bad person or not as he's cursed to walk on the edge of cyberpsychosis every day anew. He fights the urge to kill everyday anew and depending on his mood its more or less easier to ignore for him. Everyday he's confronted with a voice telling him to do bad things to people he randomly crosses ways with. They only have to give him a wrong look or answer and Beast urges him to eleminate them. He's got days where he's the opinion he's lost his true self along the way somewhere as he knows he's been the entire opposite before he started hearing Beast.
