player name: Liv
bracket/prose: Either is fine, slight preference for prose.
backtagging: Yes please, though I'll admit it's tough for me if it gets over a month old. I might ask to handwave or wrap things up.
threadhopping: Knock yourself out.
fourthwalling: In Root's case she would find it entertaining, so go ahead.
not interested in: Hardcore body horror.
very interested in: Root's weird semi-religious relationship with technology and computers, found family themes, and getting to show her freaky ruthless streak whenever possible.
content warnings: Nope!

character: Root (Samantha Groves)
canon point: Post-canon
age: 38
physical affection: Extremely open. She's probably the one doing it, let's be real.
violence: Also extremely open and potentially the one doing it. Violence up to and including death is welcome.
relationships: Root is very non-traditional and freewheeling about her personal relationships. She rarely feels the need to define them and she's open to just about anything. Although she's intensely devoted to Shaw, Harold, and the Machine, she's essentially a relationship anarchist and will pursue whatever she's interested in. That includes sex or romance or strong platonic connections.
skills / abilities: In RPG stat terms she's highly skilled in intellectual, social, and shooting, with some additional skill in melee. Root is a great shot with a huge variety of guns, she is extremely comfortable with computers and an internationally renowned hacker, and she's socially skilled enough to manipulate people with ease. She has some basic survival skills but nothing substantial.
psychic info: Nothing of note. She's kind of a mild nutcase though so reading her mind is likely to be an interesting time.
magical info: Nothing of note.
physiological info: She's deaf in her right ear and has a cochlear implant she relies on to hear.
ic offensive subjects: General willingness to commit torture and murder, I guess. Insult the Machine or Harold to her at your own peril. Also her penchant for physics and math based philosophizing should probably carry a content warning.

no subject
The one person here he cares for no longer wants his support. His loss of connection leaves him wandering around the edges of the crowd, observing their actions or listening to conversations. It is when he is looking at a painting in one of the corridors that he finds himself becoming a subject.
Has he seen it? He created it.]
Once. It was a strange piece.
[Where? When? Once is vague but also confirmation.]
Prompt contains spoilers below the cut.
[ First, he directs his thoughts towards the need to unearth people and bring them home, back to somewhere that feels nothing like it. Second, he plans to ingratiate himself into this society to make that happen. He focuses on the latter because he possesses no motivation to care about the former.
