179 - Nothing Major (Cutting Room)

REFERENCES

regulator gland: A regulator gland is a bionic device embedded in a cyborg's brain which releases controlled doses of psychoactive drugs and neurotransmitters on demand. For example, a depressed individual may request additional dopamine or serotonin from their regulator gland to improve their mood.

* It was referenced on page 166 that Ula is a prolific regulator gland abuser.


This is a page I had decided to cut, for any number of reasons. I don't like how the art came out in general, and even though it does (sort of) serve a purpose in that it explains why no one picked up any distress signal from Ula when she was attacked, it still feels largely unnecessary. I'm okay with gratuitous fluff, but only if it's good gratuitous fluff. Otherwise, it just feels like it's bogging things down for no good reason.

Originally, this was going to end up in the Deleted Scenes section, but since it just so happens to be the weekend, I figured I might as well plant it as a Sneaky Saturday Bonus Page, for anyone who happens to drop by the site over the weekend. Weekend posts are where updates go to die, so I'm okay with this being here. Regular updates should resume next week. Have a great weekend!
