Your write-up reads like a CYOA novel where the "turn to page X" options have all been replaced with 'what', 'why' and, occasionally, 'how'. Good job reproducing the original reading experience.

Also, I was starting to mentally replace 'cyborg' with 'Romantic poet', but 'Immortal Cyborg William Randolph Hearst' put a stop to that -- until I got to Princess Tiana Parakeet hooking up with him. Thanks for nothing, Randy.
