A Kind Master
Jarvis slid to his knees, scattered golden voxels crunching under his weight. “Sir, are you alright? Sir?!”
Oh, User, please – He’d told him Rinzler was a bad idea!
Clu’s arm shot out, wrapping around Jarvis’s neck, pulling him close. Jarvis
almost crashed from the shock.
“Get me up,” Clu hissed.
Jarvis obeyed and was promptly pushed backwards, Clu hugging him and limping along on his one remaining leg.
Behind them, Rinzler still snarled-thrashed-resisted in the Guards’ hold – was still Tron.
Clu undocked Jarvis’s disc, shoved him away, and lunged for Tron.
Jarvis didn’t lower his arms until the screaming stopped.

“When I got here, I was hoping I’d finally get to talk to you instead of at you,” Alan sighed, looking away from the code display projected over Tron’s disc and rubbing his eyes.
Tron himself lay beside him, only mostly deathly still. Removing Rinzler seemed to hurt. Badly.
Alan caressed his hair and went back to work. “But I’ll fix you, kiddo. Promise.”
The Rinzler code was borderline viral. It even stung his fingers as he tore it away.
Alan kept at it nonetheless.
Until a particularly large chunk bit so viciously his vision blacked out – and returned red.

Plan B
“Alright, let’s recap.”
Zed held up one finger.
“Beck: he was nice about it, and I think he bought the rapid backpedalling, but it was still humiliating.”
Two fingers.
“Mara: I’d suspect she’s playing dumb to spare me, but that’s not her style. So: honestly oblivious.”
Three fingers.
“Cyrus: already taken.”
Zed heaved a deep, deep sigh. “Three crushes, three hopeless cases. That’s pathetic.”
“Yes,” Bit chirped.
Zed glared at it until the pout took over again. “Maybe I should just give up. Or maybe...” He looked at his extended fingers, grinning. “Cyrus is totally the type for a threesome.”

Easter Eggs
“D’you see it? I’s right there. Or there. Or, uh – Quorra, I think they’re multiplying.”
“That’s nice, Sam. Now come along.”
“I swear I’m not makin’dis up.”
“I believe you.”
“So you see’em?”
“No Sam, I already explained –”
“They’re shiny. Like glitter-ly lainbows. Rainbows.”
“Glittery what?”
“Hey, Tron-man! Do you see them?”
Tron looked inquiringly at Quorra, who pulled Sam’s arm more firmly around her shoulders. “Sam’s seeing unicorns.”
“Unicorns?” Tron made a face. “Does he like the green stuff that much?”
“Noooo,” Sam groaned.
“He’s on a quest to unlock all the hidden achievements.”
“Ah. Thanks for the warning.”
Title: Round Robin

Spoilers & Desirable Foreknowledge: All of the above.
Warnings: Brainwashing/mind control, violence.

Summary: He touched the strange code. Now look what happened. Follow-up to Art Imitates Life Imitates Art.
Author’s Note: For a prompt by noctaval/stalkingbit. Enjoy!
Round Robin
There was a red worm in Alan’s mind and a fractured band of red around Tron’s neck, but it wasn’t enough, the emblem on his chest was white, blazing up, all his circuits lighting hideously white with life, self-imposed lockdown overridden by – by what?
[alert]
Another error in need of rectification.
[alert]
Threat detected, Tron’s eyes open, blue, terrified, cognizant, his hands locking around Alan’s wrists, pulling his red-circuited fingers from his throat, rejecting the transfer of red code repairs.
Rinzler was a red tide in Alan’s mind, rising every nanosecond, and please, Tron, son, please don’t pull that blow.
