[Flynn is sitting at a desk, not paying attention to the camera. Floating in the air in front of him are the usual forest of holographic displays, and a light blue geometric solid (first stellation of the icosidodecahedron, if you were curious.)]

Diagnostics all clean?

A Bit?

[Anon is sure there is some reason why there is a Bit. Isn't there?]

[Why are all the programs having such a problem with this?]

Yes!

Yes!

[Considering the last Bit that Anon had contact with was his NAVI-Bit, which did him... no good. And the programs all know about them already.

... The non-programs seem psyched at least?]

Seems to have caused some excitement.

[NAVI-Bits were just Clu being a prima donna about ISOs.]

They're cute.

[Like certain Monitors.]

[Clu was a prima donna about them a lot, from what Anon knows.]

Have seen it mentioned. Inclined to agree.

[At least he can recognize cute when he's not the one doing it?]

You want one?

[He has a feeling he knows the answer already.]

[If Anon were using video, Flynn would be able to pick up the body language. But text combined with Anon's direct phrasing is void of nuance.]

Nah, I didn't give it NAVI functionality.

[Anon is loathe to use video at all because it most often means he has to talk. Besides, the lack of NAVI assuages his irritation with them. And... it'd be company of a sort, that he could just be around.]

[Flynn sends the file to Anon's wearable. His very own Bit!]

Recieved.

[Baw it's so cute and chatty. Well. Chatty in the Bit way.

He shall call it Gibson.]

[He needs to tell Flynn that.]

Rad.

[traceurmonitor]

[He so will. Even if it's on accident while he is trying to get it to behave.]

It is cute.

Another convert.

[It can't be heard, but the Bit vehemently agrees with Flynn. All the 'yes'es.]

Simply stating fact.

[He's really not. Who's da most adowabo widdle Bit you are.]

Oh, of course.

[Yeah, not fooled.]
