[here appears a man: white hair, light eyes, pale skin with a strange mark on his forehead, even white clothes with faintly glowing circuits. He's surprising adept with the communication device even after only being in Death City for a very short amount of time. He's grinning ear to ear with a smile that could put the best used car salesman to ( Read more... )

[Have a man dressed in white with blue circuits all over his clothes and helmet. He smiles back at Castor, amused and glad to see more programs here.]

Everything is really bright, isn't it? But I do enjoy the way colors look now.

Hello Castor, I'm Ram.

[Oh, Zuse recognizes an old system program when he sees one. Though he's never met one, Zuse himself was only a few cycles separated from that era. It's within his programmed memory]

Oh my my~ what have we here? Quite the attire you have there, Ram. My I inquire as to your designation?

The concept of colour is a very interesting experience here. It has such potential, don't you think?

[Yea, Ram is many things but hard to miss is not one of them.]

It's my gladiatorial armor, I didn't had much time to change between being derezzed and arriving here. Not like I have any other clothes. [Just the spandex -like suit under the armor, and that's seven more form fitting.] I'm an actuarial program.

What does being a middle-man for Zuse implies? I've never heard of him before. [Ram smiles and his face brighten up.] More than I ever imagined. This place is fascinati8ng.

Gladiatorial? You're a player on the gaming grid? A champion, no doubt, derezzed in his prime. Sounds like nasty business to me.

[Here he's not mentioning his own deresolution. Nasty business, indeed.]

I'm an actuarial program myself, but I have never met two who focus on quite the same algorithms. I'm in the entertainment business, myself. It is Zuse's function to be the most well-informed program on the Grid, and I am the translator from Zuse's mouth to a program's ears. It's quite rewarding, I assure you.

[Oh a friendly one. He likes it when they're friendly]

Actually, my friends and I managed to scape the Game grid, but later on I got hit by a light tank. [Ram scrunches his nose for a second.] It wasn't nice, or quick.

[Deresolution sucks, he is with you on that. He looks really pinged by the fact Castor is and actuarial program as well.] Are you? I can tell already that you are good at it, you seems to have a way with words.

[That he is, yes.]

Escaped? Well good for you at that. The Games are dreadful things really. The brutality of them should have been abolished cycles ago if it wasn't such entertainment.

Now light tanks. Not many of those in operation anymore. Let's not talk anymore about this derezzing business. You have been re-resolutioned into this world. And amoung new friends. Let's make the best of it, shall we? [smiling]

I prefer a good face-to-face conversation. What do you say?

Yes, using a light-cycle. Tron was trying to defeat the MPC and stop the Games, it looks like he couldn't do it. [Ram is worried about what happened, but he doesn't know much about the fate of to the Old Grid. Old the new one.]

[Ram gets over the worrying look quickly. He's still deeply concerned, but that's his problem, and he can put on a happy facade.]No point on dwelling on the past.

[Have a more sincere smile this time.] I would love that, actually. Where are you?

[A pause. Did you just say--?] Tron? Tron was a friend of yours? My illustrious program, I cannot wait a moment longer to see you in person. We must have a talk, you and I.

I am at the foot of this building which is apparently my residence: Creeping Crypt.

Yes, he was. We were cell-mates too for a long time. [Ram blinks. Oh? What's all that interest, Castor?] you knew him too? Oh well, we shall discuss this in person, yes.

I am not there now but I live in the Creeping Crypt too, floor 16th, unit C. Wait for me please, I can arrive there in a few millicycles. I would be faster if I had my light-cycle, but alas, I have not.

[Yes, he knew Tron. Many cycles ago, but he doesn't want to break this to Ram over a distance. Especially since the method of transportation was so much slower here, Zuse would rather keep him close.]

I am 20th Floor, but Unit C as well. However, I will be here at the base of the base of the building enjoying "sunlight".

In the meantime, tell me. Have you met Rinzler?

[Good idea, he might be too upset to function properly and end hit by a car or something.]

I'm on my way. [Ram started to walk, still paying attention to the communicator and Zuse's questions.]

Ah, the sunlight. It's so different form the Grid. [Ram likes it so much.] Zelos told me that we need to be careful with the sunburns too, the sun can damage our skin.

Yes, I did. He explained me a few things, like what is food for. He's a bit strange.

[Master of all things pale, he takes a step back out of the direct sunlight and into the shadow of the building. The concept of being burnt by the sun is new, but "damage" from light is not.]

Rinzler is very dedicated to the new system. Without a doubt, he's the best security Program in the Grid. It's not his fault he's strange. [but more on that later]

I have not met this Zelos. But the Users here seem to be quite welcoming.

[Wise decision. Ram doesn't want him to get hurt, either.]

I wonder if he's better than Tron, if someone knows abut dedication that's him.

Zelos's tall, with long red hair and really smart. They really are, it's wonderful. After Flynn, I wasn't sure what to expect. For a User, he was quite the funny one.

[And he's practically there, he wasn't that far away from the building. Ram smiles as he approaches Castor] Greetings, program.

[Rinzler? Better than Tron?] I wonder... [but his voice trails off]

The Users here are certainly unlike anything I expected, and all the knowledge we can acquire from them is beyond helpful. The bit about sunlight in particular was immediately useful. Best to play the percentages just a little safer at first, don't you think?

[he returns the smile as the obvious program gets closer] Greetings indeed. That little screen does not do you justice. Such a lovely blue.

[Never.]

If you really want to learn a lot about them I will show you the library. Books are a really primitive way to store information, but useful.

[He smiles a bit more sheepishly now. What a flatterer.]Is nothing special. Nice clothes, I never saw a program dressed like this before.

Several items here seem more primitive than we're used to. It's only logical that the data storage should be as well. Nevertheless, any data at all should prove useful, and I would love to accompany you to the library.

[Stick around. Zuse'll have all kinds of flattery for you. He bows with a little flourish.] And you won't again. I pride myself on keeping unique and appropriate to my function. It's a different System now than it was. A different world. Oh, how things change as the cycles progress. Style like your classic look went out before my time. Such a pity really.
