#30 Flogging Molly - The Light of a Fading Star

After his conversation with Kevin Flynn, Delta had found himself keenly interested in all the programs who came from "the Grid". Who were they to have made Flynn so vested in the well-being of AI? As the self-proclaimed opponent of the virus Abraxas, Anon was a logical choice for observation.

He was hard to keep track of, given how quickly he moved, but now and again Delta would catch him on camera practicing his battle moves, using his "identity disc" as a weapon. He supposed it was an interesting metaphor for the way his type of AI did battle with one another - attacking the weaker, exposed code with harsh attack code.

Still, he kept more or less to himself, archiving the footage for his records. There would be time for contact later, wouldn't there?



#21 Trocadero - Good Fight (does this song count as cheating...)

Delta enjoyed the downtime on Sacrosanct as much as he enjoyed anything, really, and he could be perfectly content assisting York in everyday life on the station for the rest of his existence. Still, there was a particular joy in providing logistical battle support, running his processors to their maximum capacity within York's armor and knowing every system, every possible battle outcome better than he knew his own name, helping his partner perform to the top of their abilities that simply could not be duplicated. It was a challenge, and there were few enough real challenges for either of them anymore.

He kept his audio analysis confined to York's helmet for the moment, knowing his partner preferred the running commentary more than a visual representation that would strain his already compromised left eye. A close miss, there, and he sharply recommended firing at a particular angle--and then it was all over as quickly as it had begun.

The tension noticeably began to drain from York, though he wouldn't relax for several hours. "Thanks, D. I would've been toast without you watching my bad side."

Delta's hologram flashed back to its normal green as he set a waypoint back to the nearest teleporter and, from there, to home. "I am here to assist," he said aloud, followed by a silent and I always will be.
