❝ I’m a man of my word, you know that. ❞ for jack
Cyberpunk 2077 Starters! - ACCEPTING
---
It wasn't that Jack didn't know that, it was a matter of MEDIA FOCUS; behind the wild exterior, the untamed image that made out on-stage with the lead singer of the support act, that guitar smashing badboy with a foul mouth, was a business savvy man. Carefully crafted it all was, including his bandmates.
And Kick tended to... stray sometimes.
They all did, sure, but that didn't make it any less frustrating each time. He inhaled a shallow breath before his head shook, peering at his friend from beneath the cover of his brows. Considering the other before he spoke. Choosing his words carefully so's to not cause an argument.
"I know, Kick," He offered a small smile now, head nodding in the brief direction of... nowhere? "THEY aren't too convinced, y'know? Just... promise me you'll dial it in? Just for this month?"
Cyberpunk 2077 prompt list
Prompts from the main quest of Cyberpunk 2077 by CD Projekt Red:
❝ Do I look like a priest that runs a charity to you? ❞
❝ I’m a man of my word, you know that. ❞
❝ You know this town. It has strong roots - ever watered by the same blood. ❞
❝ I don’t know you, which means you’re worth shit around here and capable of even less. ❞
❝ I’m pleased to see you have not forgotten your roots. ❞
❝ So many of the little shits left around here… their spines go soft when they look down a barrel. ❞
❝ Listen, only one of two ways to do this friendly or fucked up. Either way, the ending’s the same. ❞
❝ I suggest you toss them in the sea. Cuffed legs broken so this trash doesn’t float. ❞
❝ I’m always never not nice! ❞
❝ Would you rather live in peace as Mr. Nobody, die dipe, old and smellin’ slightly of urine? Or go down for all times in a blaze of glory, smellin’ near like posies, ‘thout seein’ your thirtieth? ❞
❝ Call me ol’ fashioned, but I like to look anyone I do biz within the eye. ❞
❝ Sneeze in this city and a blossom drops from a cherry tree in Tokyo. ❞
❝ Sit your ass down 'fore I plant a bullet in your skull. ❞
❝ No offense, but I’m gonna burn any and all bridges - need a clean break. ❞
❝ I see no reason why you should be using expletives. ❞
❝ The greatest crimes issue from a desire for excess and not from necessity. ❞
❝ You’d be surprised what people’re willin’ to give up to feel secure. ❞
❝ Why do I need to care about some bougie prick and his street-kid fantasies? ❞
❝ I’m ____. Would you like to join my gang? ❞
❝ Got bored of bein’ rich, an’ then got bored of playin’ tough. ❞
❝ I thought I told you not to meddle in my affairs. ❞
❝ Did you think I wouldn’t know it was taken from me? ❞
❝ Actually, I don’t think of you at all. Ever. ❞
❝ You think the world revolves around you. Arrogant. ❞
❝ Why did you came? To humiliate me? To personally see to it that I know my place? ❞
❝ The nail that protrudes from the wall gets hammered… ❞
❝ You’ve only ever cared about yourself… and your sick schemes. ❞
❝ There is much for which I could forgive you, but for treason - no. ❞
❝ I’m just glad your mother didn’t live to see this. The heart should break but once. ❞
❝ You shall never have to forgive me for anything again. ❞
❝ Anyone with so much as a pinky toe dipped in this mess is as good as dead! ❞
❝ Seems I’ve chosen the quiet life, after all. No blaze o’ glory for me. ❞
❝ What crawled up your ass? ❞
❝ I have found that people lie, most often deceiving themselves. ❞
❝ The dead are so very, very loud. And yet, lying is not in their nature. ❞
❝ Don’t you dare faint again. Keep your eyes open. ❞
❝ Sleep’s a small hint of death, the inevitable. ❞
❝ It’ll be terrifying. It’ll be painful. But it doesn’t have to be. ❞
❝ As long as you’re alive, there’s hope. And don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. ❞
❝ Life is so beautifully powerful, so much more powerful than death. ❞
❝ I’ll kill anyone who gets in my way. You included. ❞
❝ Need a smoke. Where’d you stash yours? ❞
❝ I can feel it… our minds… touching… I’m like mold on fruit… creepin’ into you… nothing I can do about it. You hear me?! I’d puke if I fuckin’ could! ❞
❝ I am the one who saved your life. ❞
❝ If you intend to live, you must reenter the ring. The bell has already tolled. ❞
❝ I needed you to live. That hasn’t changed. ❞
❝ ____, wait. I need you. ❞
❝ I seek revenge. Much more feasible here. ❞
❝ Honor among thieves - ever heard of it? ❞
❝ Rats’ll squeal when hangin’ by their tails. ❞
❝ You know you got some nerve. First you’re out to kill me, now you wanna be my pal?! ❞
❝ Trust me. Don’t trust me. I don’t give a fuck. It’s the least of our worries anyway. ❞
❝ You’re the ghost of Christmas past, asshole. Any Friends you had’re either dead or so old their memory’s gone. ❞
❝ I died a legend. Nobody forgets that. ❞
❝ There is no “us.” ❞
❝ Funerals are for the living, not the dead. ❞
❝ I’m bulletproof. Nothing bad’ll ever happen to me. ❞
❝ Make your best friends among the fighters that’ll knock you out cold. ❞
❝ Days like this even the meanest motherfuckers pay their respects. ❞
❝ I’m here to say goodbye to a good man. ❞
❝ You will bring death to your door. ❞
❝ My one concern is to keep you safe in this city forgotten by the Gods. ❞
❝ Unlike you, I have not failed to keep my oath to fulfil my duty. ❞
❝ You’re an engram in a fading mind. Nothing should surprise you anymore. ❞
❝ Little something called intuition. Ever heard of it? ❞
❝ Fuck the menu, let’s ditch this waitress and take our special order to the chef, point-blank. ❞
❝ I’m here to fulfill your deepest, most hidden desire. ❞
❝ When true desires go unfulfilled, they turn into needs. ❞
❝ Death’s’ absurdity, the futile struggle before these terrify you. ❞
❝ What you really fear is becoming someone else that you don’t recognise in the least. ❞
❝ The people I’ve lost live on in my thoughts. And that’s where I’ll be - a memory. ❞
❝ You don’t see death as a destruction, the end, but as change. ❞
❝ I’m afraid of becoming someone else, forgetting who I am. ❞
❝ You’re already becoming someone else, every second of every day. ❞
❝ You’ve never backed down from anything in your life, even when you maybe should’ve. You go through this city knowing a stray bullet could end you while hailing a cab. But that’s never stopped you from taking action, and it won’t stop you now. ❞
❝ You’ve made an impact. ❞
❝ Not a single thing in this world isn’t in the process of becoming something else. Likewise you. ❞
❝ Never look back. If you gotta kill, kill. If you gotta burn it all to the ground, then let it burn. ❞
❝ Everything has its end. ❞
❝ What gave me away? It’s the hair, isn’t it. ❞
❝ Couldn’t meet somewhere else? Not big on funerals. ❞
❝ No details, no names. No one knows a thing. ❞
❝ Got a feeling we’re not gonna become best friends. No chemistry. ❞
❝ Is that at all relevant? Or just a cheap scare tactic? ❞
❝ We have our own versions of all. We do not use anything from the city. ❞
❝ Technology advances, it cannot be stopped. And now catastrophe, come again. This is sure. And soon. The corporations, they do not see de danger. But we - we will be ready. ❞
❝ To piss Arasaka off enough so they’ll give you a case of deep-muscle lead poisoning? ❞
❝ It’s not YOUR band. You’re no solo act. Gonna crash and pull all of us down, too. ❞
❝ I’m the only one with a vision. So unless you got a better one, like I said - Go Fuck. Your. Self. ❞
❝ Said you weren’t coming tonight. Not If I can help it. ❞
❝ Always gotta shit all over it, don’t you? Any moment that might actually feel good. ❞
❝ What, smoking after sex not Zen enough for you? We gotta rewrite “The Art of War,” too? ❞
❝ You can be such a bastard sometimes. ❞
❝ How is it subtlety goes so for over your head? Weird for an artist. ❞
❝ It’s all a lie. All of it. A ginormous fiction. You’re not a rockerboy. Face it. Oughta join the wired wackos on the corners, frothing at the mouth as they scream “Death to Arasaka!” ❞
❝ Think you’ve seen through me, do you? ❞
❝ We came here to fuck each other’s brains out, not analyze mine. ❞
❝ Not another goddamn word, OK? Just shut up. For once. ❞
❝ You don’t know fuck all about me. This is all we have, all we are. ❞
❝ God, I hate this fucking town. Hate these slimy fucking fixers. Hate this fucking bar. ❞
❝ Where would you rather be now? I could take you away, out to the lands where my clan roams. There aren’t too many jobs out there, but… we’d find some other useful ways to kill time. ❞
❝ Gotta say, that famed charm of yours - overhyped. Or maybe just dulling with age. ❞
❝ Were you going for Dickwipe of the Year? ❞
❝ You’re pushin’ bullshit. Heard more than my share of tales 'bout runners who ran off to Never-Never Netland. Just never thought you’d be the next to tell me one. ❞
❝ Do you see me as a demon who requires a pact signed in blood? ❞
❝ Your death was of your own making. ❞
❝ This should be obvious to you as you were responsible for her death. ❞
❝ You lack the cred, you lack the gusto - that’s your problem. ❞
❝ It’s the part where I say I despise petty merc-thiefs who think they’re hot shit rebels after settin foot in the Afterlife. Might think you took on Arasaka, but you’re just a bug they scraped off the sole of their boot and tossed in the trash. ❞
❝ Been tryin’ to learn how you’re wired this whole time. To know who I’m dealin’ with. Thought you were just unlucky to hirst. But I kept watchin’ and finally realized what your problem is. You’re dirt from Heywood who found the guts to walk a few extra blocks from home. But turned out the best you can do is chase scavs for ennies. ❞
❝ An arrogant asshole’s no small problem, but it ain’t my biggest. Dyin’ is. ❞
❝ Death by becoming someone else… You didn’t do anything to deserve that fate. ❞
❝ You afraid of death? ❞
❝ Worst thing you can do to a human - rip their identity out of 'em. That’s all I know. ❞
❝ Know what? Seems to me you need to have a nemesis, at all times. Ideally a crazy powerful one to feed your ego… and the’ve gotta be practically unbeatable - to justify a suicide run. ❞
❝ I’ll decide your fate, fuck all you can do. ❞
❝ I’ve declared war not 'cause capitalism’s a thorn in my side or outta nostalgia for an America gone by. This war’s a people’s war against a system that’s spiralled outta our control. It’s a war against the fuckin’ forces of entropy, understand?! ❞
❝ Do whatever it takes to stop 'em, defeat 'em, gut 'em. If I gotta kill, I’ll kill. ❞
❝ You still don’t see it. But you will one day. ❞
❝ Two-bit thief, ain’t I? Keep sayin’ so yourself. ❞
❝ Think his pretty eyes landed him that gig? ❞
❝ Far as I can see, you’re tryna get us killed. Really like to know why. ❞
❝ Well, sounds like a suicide run, but done dumber shit than this so… ❞
❝ To make the right decisions with imperfect knowledge… that is how you become the world’s most powerful man. ❞
❝ I sense that you judge me. And yet you have no right to. ❞
❝ There are no clean hands. But it is important how they become dirty. ❞
❝ They gave me what no one else could - values I could honor, live for. This was most important. You dirty your hands for money. I, in the name of principles. ❞
❝ Not everybody wants to change the world. ❞
❝ You oppose the corporations, their order, their world, in a mindless way, yet you offer no worthy alternative. ❞
❝ You show me filthy streets as if no other world exists, as if nothing else is possible. What of the millions who work for corporations and receive stability, safety? ❞
❝ People hate corps more than anything. Can’t blame 'em, elther. ❞
❝ Sometimes I wish to become a nomad. To leave this world, forget everything. ❞
❝ Nomads aren’t lone wolves with egos. Whether they’re blood or not - family comes first. ❞
❝ That day, we both have lost someone important. And we are not at peace with this, so we seek conflict, argue eagerly. ❞
❝ Don’t be smart, got no idea what I feel. ❞
❝ It is the duty of the living to atone for the dead. ❞
❝ You got fuck-all to lose! ❞
❝ You and your fuckin’ sick sense of honor… Today’s your lucky day, though. ❞
❝ Everyone has their role to play in this spectacle. ❞
❝ Think they make these motels especially for royal fuck-ups like us? ❞
❝ Decide to cross a corp, this is what happens. You think you just stepped in shit. Actually, you fell headfirst into a cesspit. ❞
❝ Doesn’t matter how good you are in Night City. On your own, you’re fucked. ❞
❝ My dead body’d make for a pretty lame-ass witness. ❞
❝ It is difficult to choose the right path when each step is a journey into the unknown. But never forget that you are not alone. ❞
❝ I saved your ass, got you outta harm’s way, and you’re still gonna doubt my intentions? ❞
❝ I think fear of death’s got you spewin’ misdirected anger. ❞
❝ Ordinary people always lose. ❞
❝ When the time comes, it’ll be my life for yours. ❞
❝ Hey, Satan kicked me outta hell, thought I’d swing by. ❞
❝ Decide whose truth matters to you more - yours or somebody else’s? ❞
❝ Only place you fall asleep thinkin’ you’re special, then wake up knowin’ you’re no one. ❞
❝ Night City is a city of shadows. Done everything I could to walk clear of 'em for years. ❞
❝ One chapter ends, another begins. ❞
❝ You knew abut didn’t do a thing about it? Why? Suddenly sprout a conscience just yesterday? ❞
❝ Everyone must take their place. ❞
❝ This is your last chance to take matters into your own hands. Understand? ❞
❝ Got a feeling you’re going to regret this decision. And the moment that dawns I won’t be there to help. ❞
❝ Some believe uncertainty is an evil that should be dispelled through divination. Others claim it’s change that is evil. But that isn’t true either. ❞
❝ Every minute of every day, we each be come someone new. ❞
❝ We shouldn’t fear change itself, but only who we might change into. ❞
❝ Betraying a friend - you can’t justify that. ❞
❝ Got no right to judge me. ❞
❝ This is why I have remained outside, uninvolved. So as no to have to make decisions such as these. ❞
❝ I believe has just begun. ❞
❝ Watch your tone or it will be you who will find it hard to walk. ❞
❝ Sometimes you have to look the truth right in the eye. ❞
❝ You have… a very honest look. ❞
❝ Symbols are more resilient than you think. ❞
❝ No matter what happens… you must trust me. ❞
❝ Either you let yourself be fooled like children, or you were guided by opportunism. ❞
❝ Violent delights with violent ends. ❞
❝ He once told me anything of value is only a flag blowing in the wind. And wind is fear. ❞
❝ If planting bombs is not enough, what do you do? You become the bomb. ❞
❝ Fate is a fickle mistress, isn’t she? ❞
❝ You betrayed yourself. ❞
❝ We’re a tangled web, you and me. ❞
❝ What is perfect requires no change. ❞
❝ I did not come with empty hands. We must speak about your options. ❞
❝ Got no idea how sweet it is to be free. ❞
❝ To ash and dust. ❞
❝ As I see it, they braided this wip that’ll sting 'em. ❞
❝ Just like old times. ❞
❝ No idea how this is gonna end, but let me tell ya - it’ll be one loud morning. ❞
❝ We fought for beauty. Not knowin’ what was good or true, was only the beautiful that meant a damn thing to us. ❞
❝ Can’t turn back time ever - but, you can always start over. ❞
❝ Their generation - made of a different mettle. ❞
❝ Just promise me one thing, asshole. That you won’t forget me. ❞
❝ Self-confidence worthy of a legend. Or of someone risking it all. ❞
❝ I sense you know what it’s like to lose everything. To fight for one last breath. I see it in you. ❞
❝ I never forget a promise. ❞
LOOK AT HIM
A COOL METAL FIRE
a collection of Samurai song lyrics as starters ! some paraphrasing for cohesivity. feel free to swap you for i ; or the other way around.
The Ballad of Buck Ravers
‘ Lost another day to pointless drudgery. ‘
‘ A slow chipping away of my autonomy ‘
‘ They’re rodents in a race…unsung and underpaid ‘
‘ My colleagues seem to me like sheep in an array ‘
‘The nauseating purr of the corpos of the world ‘
’ They’re naked emperors. ‘
’ I can hear the rattling of a purse. ‘
’ I hunger for the hearse. ‘
’ Nothing could be worse. ‘
’ Nothing could be worse than a life lived in debt. ‘
’ I’d rather be dead than a link in a chain of tyranny. ‘
’ I need a way to set it straight. ‘
’ You need to go out on the edge. ‘
’ I need to rage and get revenge. ‘
’ I need to feel myself again. ‘
’ Suit up, punch in, punch out, it’s non-stop. ‘
’ Suit up, punch in, punch out. Get fucked! ‘
’ You clamber for clout, year after year. ‘
’ I’ve had enough. I’ve done enough. ‘
’ Here comes revenge. ‘
’ Here comes the end. ‘
’ There’s blood splatter on your face. ‘
’ A bullet pierced me. ‘
‘ Here comes liberty. ‘
’ I was once a decent man / woman. ‘
’ The promises I was made were made to keep me chained.
‘ I was concerned and kept on a wage
‘ The worst of my rage is yet to come. ‘
‘ One day, the curtain will fall.’
‘ Time comes for all. ‘
Black Dog
‘ You’re like a blind man lost in the streets. ‘
‘ There’s a pattern here. ‘
‘ I need to see. ‘
‘ You keep returning. ‘
‘ I keep trying to leave. ‘
‘ I’ve got a bad feeling…but I need to feel it. ‘
‘ A black dog runs at my side. ‘
‘ Down the road….there’s no end in sight. ‘
‘ The city sleeps but in my mind….there’s a knot I can’t unwind. ‘
‘ Tonight is the night we run. ‘
‘ The hunter becomes what he hunts. ‘
‘ The escape and the chase become one. ‘
‘ In concrete canyons there are a hundred squinting neon eyes. ‘
‘ A black dog sits besides me, like a shadow needing light. ‘
‘ I stalk the backstreets, never at ease. ‘
‘ We’re locked in a chase that’ll never cease. ‘
‘ Another cruel day is coming soon. ‘
‘ You need to end this. ‘
‘ But it’s just begun! ‘
‘ One final charge with the rising sun. ‘
‘ You’re like a black dog in my head…guiding me to the end. ‘
A Like Supreme
‘ We have a willingness to be bought. ‘
‘ It’s a hunger…a hunger to buy. ‘
‘ Your content is sold. ‘
‘ Your liquid dorsal is so profitable. ‘
‘ We pay for pastime. ‘
‘ We pay to unwind. ‘
‘ We pay to be born. ‘
‘ We pay to die. ‘
‘ So savage is the new machine. ‘
‘ They’re geared to hunt down your privacy. ‘
‘ They’re geared to hunt down your dignity. ‘
‘ Kill it all for a like supreme! ‘
‘ Here we are now. ‘
‘ Are you entertained? ‘
‘ We aim for stupid means. ‘
‘ We’re going insane. ‘
‘ Conflict is order. ‘
‘ There’s war in peace. ‘
‘ Adjust the language to what they believe. ‘
‘ Friction is power. ‘
‘ What is the distance from not knowing to knowing this? ‘
‘ Kill it all! ‘
‘ Hunt it down. Now. ‘
Chippin’ In (2020 & 2077 versions)
‘ I’ve got chrome in my bloodstream. ‘
‘ You’ve got a hardwired metal soul. ‘
‘ I’m out looking for action. ‘
‘ Guess I’m on a roll. ‘
‘ I’m craving serious action. ‘
‘ When I boost, it’s for real. ‘
‘ The capacitors inside my brain are roaring. ‘
‘ There’s metal burning beneath my skin. ‘
‘ You know just how I feel. ‘
‘ It can’t hurt cause I’m already dead. ‘
‘ Ain’t no time as real as realtime. ‘
‘ I’m chippin’ in. ‘
‘ I’ve got my head to the wall. ‘
‘ Can you hear my call? ‘
‘ I’m the man / woman of steel. ‘
‘ Is that how you feel? ‘
‘ My implants are hot. ‘
‘ It’s justice. I call it heavy violence. ‘
‘ I fuckin’ feel it. ‘
‘ Gonna boost and hit the streets. ‘
‘ Corpos plague us in violent droves. ‘
‘ They’re made of greed. ‘
‘ They’re packing heat! ‘
‘ I can’t be killed cause I’m already dead. ‘
‘ Don’t feed the ghost within. ‘
‘ I’m real! ‘
‘ You’re real! ‘
Never Fade Away
‘ We lost everything. ‘
‘ We had to pay the price. ‘
‘ I saw in you what life was missing. ‘
‘ You lit a flame that consumed my hate. ‘
‘ I’m not one for reminiscing. ‘
‘ I’d trade it all for your sweet embrace. ‘
‘ There’s a canvas with two faces. ‘
‘ It was a passion for the ages. ‘
‘ And in the end….guess we paid the cost. ‘
‘ A thing of beauty - I know. ‘
‘ It will never fade away. ‘
‘ I can see it in your eyes. ‘
‘ I know you see me. ‘
‘ You’re like a ghost. ‘
‘ How are you everywhere? ‘
‘ I am your demon. ‘
‘ I’m never leaving. ‘
‘ A metal soul of rage and fear. ‘
‘ That one thing changed it all. ‘
‘ That one sin that caused the fall. ‘
‘ What you did to me…’
‘ I know…’
‘ You said what you had to say. ‘
‘ A thing of beauty will never fade away. ‘
‘ I’ll do my duty. ‘
‘ Somehow I’ll find a way. ‘
‘ I’ll never fade away. ‘
‘ We’ll never fade away. ‘

Hunter's goal in Hellas was NEVER fame. If it was, she wouldn't have been as she was/is. Her goal was expression, to show people that you can speak up and have a voice against corporations, oppression of all kinds. That feeling emotion is okay, that you can express it without embarrassment. That you can speak out, and people like her will listen.
The music was more than a way to make it big, as a legend. It was a way to empower people who didn't have a voice.
Hunter has a shoebox (old school) under her bed that contains so many fucking pages of lyrics and riff ideas (more old school), her old used guitar picks, spare guitar strings, and Polaroids (she has a hard on for old school stuff, apparently) of herself and Hellas way back before she got booted. She will look through everything on a particularly shitty alcohol-driven night and probably cry tbh.

It seemed like it had been too long since Hunter had found a seat in the Afterlife and just drank. For someone who was a regular alcoholic and general patron, she sure didn't seem to spend too much time in the elusive club.
She'd argue it was because she was BUSY. In actuality, she had been sat in her stupid apartment listening to Celio's old Samurai album on repeat. Same shit if you asked her.
Her return was met with the news that someone was looking for her. Not antagonistic, it seemed. But, nevertheless, it was a reason to have your hackles up AND to agree to talk.
It soon became apparent that this person ( V, right? ) was either stupid or desperate... or BOTH.
"You want my help?" Right arm, of which was metal and looked dlike it belonged in the 2050s ( it did, but that was a conversation for another time ) , raised to scratch her chin in thought. If Hellas wasn't playing overhead, maybe she would've been quicker to continue. "To... find a corporate runaway? That you have no fucking idea where to even start, and who's in good with ARASAKA? Or do you want me for the revenge plot undertones you have going on?"
A look was shot to the bar, but otherwise Hunter looked downright amused at the death sentence attacking a corporation would be ( her rocker-self was MOCKING her as they speak ) . "Are you fucking WHACKED out of your mind?"
“Test of a persons true value? Death. Facing it, staring it down. You still got a chance to be somebody .”

"Y'know, V... I'm sorry for being a fucking asshole when we first met."
The now re-established rocker raised her cigarette to her lips, chrome arm shining brightly in the neon lights of the alley they found themselves in. While she could be reclining with some fans, charming her way into some pants and high as a fucking kite, Hunter decided that V was just... better company.
Even if, technically speaking, it was V AND Johnny Silverhand with her ( the construct of which was sat beside her, too ) .
Red and black eyes examined her painted nails, chipped with the excess playing of her guitar and rough duties as a merc. She found it hard to be sincere and genuinely kind - Celio would perhaps be disappointed in that fact.
Her metallic fingers not responsible for the cigarette flexed at the thought.
"I want you to know that when the time comes, I'm there at your side. I'll give my life for yours... and his. Just give me the call."
Like for a starter from Hunter, your favourite notable merc that can probably help you out!
