It’s Tron fic update time! And… there’s some reason for celebration.
As of this chapter, The Five Stages of Rectification is officially the longest fic I’ve ever published on AO3. It’s also the last chapter I will post as a legally single person -by next week Wednesday I will (if all goes well) be married to my partner of 12 years!
I suppose it’s fitting that this chapter is the one that properly earns this fic its rating.
Yes, you read that right.
Or as I put it to my beta:
Flynn and Alan discover both the wonders of digital intimacy, and the turmoils of plain old human intimacy. (As it turns out, using your words is harder than expected).
Clu is getting his shit together and working on his problems, little by little, whereas Tron has decided his problems are best worked on by beating the shit out of them, all at once. Unsurprisingly given the situation, these two strategies end up with some interference from one another.Prepare for a whiplash combo deal of some of the most wholesome scenes I have ever written… as well as some of the very least, wrapped together in one delicious fic update. If that doesn’t serve as a warning, I don’t know what will. Presenting… Chapter 12. ANGER (ACCEPTANCE).
Now, with smut.
