My MC
His theme song(or rather the theme song for the entire story really)This song would be what I would choose for the outro if this were to be a show. It has that somber tone to it that fits the vibe that I want the story to have. The original song that the artist is covering is called Alison by an indie band called SlowdiveI'm looking into making(or finding someone to make) themes for specific characters in the story. I chose the above song as the overall theme because:
I wanted to find something that had the early 2000's alt-rock vibes that some of the animes that inspired this story had as themes(ex: Duvet by Boa from Serial Experiments Lain.)
and
The singer seems to be telling a tale of dissociation with herself (going off of the chorus) which fits the MC pretty well as he is an amnesiac who also is split between the personality of the weapon(Technocyte) he was turned into and the human he wishes he was and thus doesn't feel like he's himself at times.
My story(web novel):
Inspired by works such as Ghost in the Shell, Ergo Proxy, Serial Experiments Lain, and Akira, Technocyte: Beyond Human follows Detectives Beatrice Alice Moreau and Jay Lee Jones, an amnesiac man named Sherlock Lawson, and a mysterious young girl named Mina in a cyberpunk/ dystopian like setting as they uncover the truth behind Sherlock's elusive past and his connection to the Technocytes, enhanced humans who are able to morph metal around their bodies and manipulate technology, and the organization responsible for creating them known as SANCTUARY.
