Hey Kid, Do I Have Your Attention? [CLOSED]

Mar 07, 2011 13:11

Who: Pocket System Monitor (traceurmonitor) and his Bestest Virus Pal (infectthegrid)
What: Anon learns an extremely valuable lesson in why the lone wolf routine doesn't work. Here there be monsters.
Where: Residential Zone 07, presumably around the Grid section.
When: An indeterminate time after Kevin Flynn gets Clu-napped.
Notes: We are dealing with the huge scary virus that wants to do horrible things to Anon. All the badtouch and body horror is gonna be in there, y'all.
But for the curious, where the title and LJ-cut came from.


[He'd answered quickly when Sam called him and gave him the news that Flynn was missing. With all their enemies here, it had only been a matter of time, hadn't it? Anon was still worried, of course. How could he not be? This was the Creator, his God... his friend. He was going to help find him and get him out of trouble, and that was that. He'd done a lot more than that for him in the past.

He'd been politely terse as ever in his talk with Sam, not giving away how concerned he was as he considered who could have done this. Not Jack Noir, certainly. He was trying to destroy the trolls first, not necessarily Users. Clu's had a long-standing issue with the User; Anon wouldn't put it past him.

Abraxas? He had issued threats to Flynn before, back when the Creator had arrived. And doing this would be a sure-fire way to bring Anon running, especially since Anon was keeping such a close eye on Gibson. But no. Not his style. And he doubts the virus would have kept quiet about it for this long if he had.]

[It doesn't matter, anyway. Reorganizing priorities. Current objective: Retrieve User, designation: Flynn, Kevin.
Flynn had gone missing in R07. Anon would find him and get him back. Shouldn't take long. No problems.
... except that Stross is not the way he remembers it. At all.
It looks like the Grid.]

[... That's fine. He can deal with that. Means that Clu is probably the one that did it. The little Monitor just has to be more careful, plodding through the less-trafficked areas and climbing through maintenance ducts as required to stay out of sight. He is, as always, focused on the objective. Paying attention to his surroundings? Why would he do that? Even when he's trotting though the streets like he is now.]
