FIC: Bluescreen - part one

[ormery.livejournal.com]

Title: Bluescreen (part one)
Author: squeakyorm
Rating: PG-13
Warnings: made-up slang, some swearing. AU.
Length: 1750 words or thereabouts
Characters/pairing: Deidara's POV – possibly SasoDei at some point in the future, perhaps. I'm not promising anything, but if there's any pairing it'll be that.
Notes: I felt there was not enough sci-fi/cyberpunk AU going on in this fandom. Not enough at all. So ... yeah, I thought I'd try to go a little way towards rectifying that. With Deidara-fic! You can't go wrong with Deidara. Or with in-brain email! Combining the two is obviously the path to victory!

I'm on the tunnels, the first time I see him, between Pilgrim's Over and Riley at one fifty. He sits down opposite me and at first I think he's a human with an implant, this little gleam of metal at his jaw and my other eye telling me he's got wifi, but he's an android, got these exposed wires everywhere and that sort of weird look to his skin, yeah...
