Okay wow it’s been three times now
1. My fic about the guard who got temporarily derezzed and absorbed into Flynn to change his circuits red, and how when Flynn turned blue again the guy rerezzed back where he came from with his whole world view shifted and ended the story rebelling and suppressing a report that would have alerted the MCP to the danger coming his way
2. My fic about Ram and Clu getting rerezzed in the Recognizer and ending the story running off together to help Flynn and Tron by “fighting every tank and every Reco that’s on its way to try and stop them”
3. That long Tron/Yori dialogue I posted on here, about how there were secretly Encom ISOs, who were using their stronger-than-average autonomy to sabotage the MCP behind the scenes
…Three times now
(Not counting the crack Ive been doing in private chat, involving AU Sark-as-Janet-from-the-Good-Place taking MCP down by handing him Cactus ransomware)
But three actual times
that I’ve written something speculating about the MCP’s downfall
And positing that someone else besides Flynn and Tron was working at it behind the scenes
Implying maybe the MCP was being weakened in a zillion tiny secret ways, by zillions of programs who he thought were loyal and/or unimportant
I mean
That is how things often go for tyrannies IRL
And maaaaaybe I’ve been thinking about that a little much
