This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

And, just to head off Crush, those hands Marble took from Rose *never*
belonged to any hypothetical martyred chem maid. Chem maids were made to
look like young female bios. The prosthetic hands Marble took from Rose are
specifically described as looking like "the bony blue-veined hands of an
elderly bio".

I agree with your explanation of the use of the word "reclaimed" and I must
say it's nice to be thought of.

Question: Are you saying that Rose's prosthetics were custom made and did
not come from any chem originally? Do you really believe that technology
existed? Then why did Marble take such care to retain even the fluids of the
hand Blood cut off?

Or do you assert that there were chems that were "old" in appearance?
