Please Hang Up And Try Again
CLU - Memories - Maroon 5, "Through With You"

They're arguing, in their way; Tron demurring softly without ever saying no--he would never contradict Flynn, would never question or snarl or push--and Flynn trying to reassure him without making it an imperative, so that Tron doesn't just decide Relax is a directive and obey. Their voices carry gently, murmuring to greater and greater echoes as they come closer, all unaware.

It's the last insult, in a way. They're both so sure he's deaf. Both so busy ignoring him.

"Flynn!"

He will never be able to make himself say Kevin.

And Flynn looks up, startled; You're not supposed to be here clear on his face, and it's like--nothing Clu's ever experienced. It's nothing he has any reference for, something that tightens inside, a clenched up rush to shutdown, and it burns.

But he has the Creator's attention. Finally.

"Am I still to create the perfect system?" Even the words ache. Lying is still new to him, difficult, contrary. It takes so much processing.

His core instruction--everything he was made for--is a lie.

He has to be sure. He has to hear it directly.

The Creator blinks at him, slow and wide-eyed, and tells the truth: "...Yeah?"

That's all the reassurance Clu will ever need again.

Pardon me while I bawl for a while. CLU... why such a sympathetic badguy? I just want to hug him and reassure him that everything will be all right. Whyyyyy. ;___;

Wow, that song fit perfectly. Did that really work out that way or did you cheat? XD

sajdhlasdfjkhl Why the puppyface Tron so sad ;_; here, have a sad Clu. :D

I think it has something to do with his limitations being hardwired; he's evil and he's getting a kick out of being evil (see: blowing Zeus the hell up, kicking Tronzler in the faaace)...

but he's doing it because he actually thinks it's right. When he was all, "we're totally going into the User world to crush it and I will never leave you" I finally got what makes him tick, and put the journal together that. day.

No way! I just--have a mix of Moira and CLU songs and this is how it turned out. I can PM you the full list? ;)

Actually, it's making the Clu and Sam one really hard, l-lol XD

:\

Yeah, definitely. He's just trying to do his directive the best way he knows how--which is unfortunately not the way to go about it. But he can't see that, can't comprehend that. Not won't, can't. It's not written in him. So to him, he's in the right.
And that's what makes him such a sad "bad" guy. :c

Hehehe! I would not object? ^_~

Ooooooops. Oh well. I'm sure you'll get it! Your writing is GREAT. I love it. All of it.
