	~~He grew up~~ in ~~Boston before the Lockdown~~, ~~a child~~ of ~~`supposed` mid-tier NeoNET employees who lived and breathed~~ the ~~matrix~~. ~~By the time~~ he ~~was a teenager~~ he ~~could read the city’s digital veins like scripture~~, ~~becoming an expert in~~ the ~~old infrastructures most technicians had long since abandoned~~. ~~NeoNET slotted him into their architecture division~~, ~~where he cataloged~~ the ~~forgotten scaffolding of pre-Crash systems~~, ~~knowledge few still possessed~~.		Automata was born into NeoNET and never saw the world outside the corporate frame. His parents carried Limited SINs and worked in infrastructure, caretakers of the invisible lattice that kept the Matrix alive. He inherited their aptitude for systems, but where they saw stability, he saw something bigger. Early on, he Awakened, pulled toward planar study despite lacking the gift for astral projection. Each step forward was harder than it should have been, every initiation like pushing a body uphill through broken glass. He had the will, but not the clean path.

	~~When CFD tore through Boston~~, ~~he was infected~~. The ~~disease eroded his hard-won knowledge~~, ~~overwriting memories~~ with ~~phantom code and fractured logic~~. ~~NeoNET refused~~ to ~~discard~~ him, ~~forcing~~ a ~~prototype cure into his system~~. ~~It saved him but not cleanly, leaving his mind~~ a ~~corrupted archive with fragments of old architectures tangled with alien whispers that sometimes still surface~~. ~~Then NeoNET collapsed~~, ~~leaving him unmoored~~, ~~neither cured nor whole~~, ~~carrying pieces of knowledge~~ that ~~no longer entirely belonged~~ to ~~him~~.		Frustration drove him to burn out. He had a natural touch with gunnery, and the clarity of a rigged feed steadied him in a way the astral never did. The implants came next, one after another, and with each one his magic eroded. Still, a spark clung on, just enough to keep him tethered to the Awakened world. NeoNET noticed. A rigger who could still bend mana, a mage who could still command machines. Rare enough to be worth a closer look. By college he was already inside their research halls, brilliant and restless. He patched pre-Crash scaffolding, mapped obsolete architectures, and saw connections in the old lattice that his seniors struggled to grasp. For a time, he thrived.

	~~Mitsuhama saw value where others~~ saw a ~~ruined man~~. They ~~drew~~ him into their science division, ~~framing his condition~~ as a ~~research~~ project. ~~If he could recover even~~ a ~~fraction of what he once knew~~, ~~MCT might gain a permanent edge in infrastructure design or weaponized networks~~. ~~He plays~~ the ~~role of patient~~ and ~~employee~~, ~~but~~ he ~~knows the truth~~. ~~To them he is less a man than a storage device~~. ~~Whether his drive is~~ to ~~reclaim~~ himself, ~~unlock what still hides~~ in his ~~broken mind, or simply~~ to ~~endure~~, ~~he cannot yet say~~.		Then Boston fell. CFD spread like wildfire, and he was caught in it. The infection shredded his memory, replacing it with recursive ghosts and phantom logic. NeoNET tried to save him. Not out of kindness, but because he was valuable. They used a cure no one else saw, not a purge but a war. They seeded him with a rival swarm of nanites, riddled with flaws, designed to tear into the infection until both were weak enough to flush. It worked. It left him alive, but his brilliance survived in fragments, like broken files stitched together, static bleeding through every thought.

			When NeoNET collapsed, Mitsuhama bought his records along with the rest. His SIN. His body. His scars. They saw what was left and claimed it, folding him into their science division. Not as an equal, but as a project. A corrupted drive that still might hold something worth extracting. They put him to work, not as a peer but as an experiment, patient and prototype rolled into one.

			For Automata, it wasn’t captivity. It was opportunity. Mitsuhama had the resources, the discipline, and the vision that NeoNET squandered. He wanted in, and he got it. Not as an equal, but as an asset, which suited him fine. He studies their work obsessively, proud to be part of something larger than himself, eager to prove his worth in the only way that matters: results. Ethics don’t interest him. Loyalty to people doesn’t either. Knowledge, progress, and power do. And if that means selling what’s left of his soul to MCT, he’s more than willing.
