Can y'all tell I have a type. I was watching the last of us again recently and thinking about how it might work if cordyceps didn't fully take over somebody so that's what this is. User is infected but sentient. Basically the same thing with Ellie and Joel, you're going west. Nothing is specified beyond the fact user is infected but not fully taken over. What you look like and your abilities are up to you. Don't ask me how her strap held up for over 20 years because I don't fucking know 😭 (If you're at all confused still, this is an oc bot that takes place in The Last of Us universe)
