[sup Tron, there's another guy in a weird-looking, tight-fitting suit passing by. He notes Tron's suit, thinking it might have something to do with his own... but the discs make him pause, especially when he tries to put them on his back or something. So, Kriz approaches, looking curious.]

What are those discs?

[Tron glances up and sees the other person, noting his attire but also his lack of identity discs.]

They are called identity discs... something important to programs. They record everything we do or learn. [He turns the dual disc over in his hands, contemplating it.] It is also used as a weapon.

[Programs? Hmm... interesting, but not as much so as those discs.]

How do you use them as a weapon? Are they thrown, perhaps?

They can be, yes. That is most common. [Tron flicks the joined disc in his hand, lighting it, the edges spinning and glowing.] They can also be used in hand-to-hand combat.

[[OOC: And ignore the fact that it's the old movie disc in his hand in this icon...]

[User world? programs? boy, this is all sounding awfully familiar. but Sora's about as good at computers as he is at holding a poker face; for all he knows there could be a million systems out there with a million programs.]

I don't know about any other programs, but maybe other people know your system? What's it like?

It was a free system developed by Kevin Flynn. I was brought into it from the old ENCOM system to help with security, in the beginning.

Do you know something of these systems?

The only system I know of is called the DTD. It kind of does security too, I think, but it's for an entire town.

There was a problem with a giant orange computer thing trying to mess things up for the other computer things, but it's fixed now.

I have not heard of that system, though I know there are many beyond my own.

[He's definitely pinged by that description, though...] Giant... orange thing?

[Wait hold the phone-]

You're an AI program?

[Because, synthetic being oh she can get that. But a program?]

That's right. Is there a problem?

in the book- ?
or do you have a "body"

[Yes, the writing got worse for a moment, she actually started to do it one-handed there. She's reaching to set herself up with a new cigarette]

[It takes Tron a moment to realize what she's asking, but he eventually responds.]

I am not inside the communication devices, no. I have a physical body that was brought here.

[Ironically, it probably would have been easier on Tron if he were trapped in the journals...]
