1. Ache
He didn't know how much he'd get, with the compound interest of years overdue, until he woke up in the real world - nor how welcome it would be.
2. Bored
Now that was a malady he never suffered from.
3. Colour
The angry orange and red haunted his dreams long after he actually saw them last.
4. Dance
Of course he'd told Quorra disco - it's what he'd known, after all.
5. Expectations
As his mind kept on opening more and more doors of rooms full of consequences to what he was seeing in the mere pale figure of Ophelia, all his expectations and plans shattered for ever.
6. Flirty
The first time he saw Alan Bradley attempting to focus his considerable potential into flirting, Flynn went into a fit of laughter that lasted easily half an hour.
7. Gay
Now that was a sticky concept to explain to somebody who couldn't physically comprehend sex in the first place.
8. Hope
The free laughter and the raspy rumbly voice mingled in the quiet sailing, and just for that moment Flynn learned that even after all this time, hope still lived within him.
9. Intoxicated
It was easy for him to get intoxicated, best of all on love... and new ideas.
10. Joke
This isn't happening, it only thinks it's happening!
11. Knife
Well, later he returned to the knowledge of his youngest years - the best way to spread Nutella was with your fingers.
12. Limit
The last seconds of the portal's time open seemed to throb in his blood, but Flynn might as well have been on another world - it was that unreachable.
13. Marriage
Flynn's fingers wrapped around her smaller hand, the band warmer against his skin, and she smiled up at him, and the world was never quire the same again.
14. Nasty
"That flu that's going around's nasty, man, you might as well go home and rest up... and make sure you don't pass it on to Lora!"
15. Optimistic
He could make it work, all of it - the ISOs and the basics - because he had to!
16. Passion
Alan took one look at him, meeting his eyes, and murmured that here-we-go-again! "uh-oh" under his breath.
17. Quaint
His parents were right that his son needed peace and calm to grow up, and he was grateful that they brought the air of quaint normalcy back to his and Sam's life, after Jordan was gone.
18. Respect
If you were willing to learn, Flynn would be willing to give you at least the benefit of the doubt, if not outright respect.
19. Secrets
Over a thousand cycles, not a single day went without Flynn regretting that he'd kept his working place a secret from those who would have trusted him in return.
20. Treatment
... he rather wondered, later, if they had any actual treatment to temporary memory loss and disorientation.
21. Unexpected
Flynn... lives.
22. Virtuous
Not really, unless you count fidelity and dedication...
23. Witness
He saw it in the way her eyes grew haunted, sometimes, in the cries with which she woke from nightmares - how she could not unsee the death of all her people.
24. X-Rated
"What that loft over the Arcade has seen... well, good thing that walls cannot actually speak, right?"
25. Yesterday
The yesterdays when troubles seemed so far away had fallen back too long ago.
26. Zealous
Dogged and relentless and dedicated and committed, Clu was exactly as Flynn had created him.
