Jesus Christ. What an interesting and horrific concept carried out with skilled execution.
8564966 Thanks!

Interesting, horrific and endearing I might.
I'm finding myself feeling some compassion for the AGI.
Hmmm. He's lucky Bob (we're naming it this now) installed the (relatively) lesser interface first. Consciously and unconsciously remapping the nerve endpoints is not something your typical organic does very often, or very well.
Keep going! ;)
8565016 Synesthesia combined with sensory deprivation, quite the cocktail.
Interesting to see that they don't have a digestion track anymore, I was hoping to see how they are feed now. Still, I thin the idea of the powerfead/magic give's them the needed euphoria, and is probably what is not getting him to sink so badly into a hopeless depression, sense Jetset seems take some joy playing with the drone on his own instead of staying inert all the time unless he is ordered too, I am guessing that it might also be addictive too. I think the next step after the legs would be to show that they can requisitioned equipment on their own at some point. The would be also important to portent for the the both of them to clearly understand would be that they are now completely dependent on the AGI to keep the alive and have to be left to decide then they are recharged instead of being being ordered to.
8565549 Indeed. A portion of the CO2 from their breath, and waste products from their blood are being recycled and reacted to create sucrose to be fed back into their bloodstream. His enjoyment with the drone is because it has, thus far, been the only act he has been able to have some freedom in. The AGI is trying to encourage his interaction through the nerve interfaces to have a higher chance of success in the final conversion. As it stands, they have made no actual communication on any level with the AGI, everything has been the AGI interacting with them, and their only possible reply is to either do or not do what it wants.
Since the mask was applied, they were effectively dependent on the machinery. Once their hearts/liver/kidneys were replaced, it became an absolute requirement for the machinery to upkeep them. The waste tanks need emptying (although as more of them was replaced, there was less waste) and their horns need charging (although in Equestria there is likely enough magic to keep them alive, until their stomachs were replaced).
what will happen to his biological mind after the final conversion?
Wheels, huh... I think it is a step back with greatly reducing off-road capabilities for its "mobile batteries".
8568076 Wheels are temporary.
8566755 You will have to wait and see.
What exactly does he look like at this point? The description in the story was minimal and I can't really picture what he looks like.
8826603 What he looks like? His face has a glued-on cover that can allow his vision through, while providing a basic HUD. His fur would be a mess of tangled knots. There are cabled exiting his cheek and tucking back into his torso a little further down. He is missing all four legs now, amputated at the shoulder and thigh.
His little cart is a four-wheel device that has servo motors on each wheel and what amounts to a crane-arm on top. It was a service bot chassis for use recovering other bots. There is a cable-conduit running from the cart to Jet, plugging into him to provide it with both power and control.
That seems, counter-intuitive. Surely re-purposing the preexisting nerves relating to motor control would be more effective that rerouting it through his olfactory nerves of all things? Can't argue with results I suppose...
9813185 Except the nerves being accessed were the vagus nerves, which have nothing to do with movement and everything to do with semi-autonomous (and autonomous) actions within the body and around the face.
