Alan's logic said Computer code and compiler. It said things like Turing Test, Searle's Strong AI theory. Robots with the intelligence of bugs... It kept wanting to shriek that this was a bad dream or delusion.
The hands on his jacket, the ice blue eyes that were creepily like and unlike his own, the voice that seemed to pierce right into him - those all said that he was dealing with a man - unstable and in horrible pain.
"You coded me into existence. You gave me purpose. Once, you spoke to me and I felt it with my whole being. I loved you as my User and creator. I would have done anything you asked because of that love."
Alan couldn't stop the shudder, and couldn't get his tongue to work. What could he say? I didn't know.

O.O I disappear from the internet for a day and... !?!!?!? THE AWESOME APPEARS!!!
(is OP. De-anoning. Hard.)
:D You're fracking amazing. Seriously... *shakes head*. I love how you fit it halfway with your other-story-canon, too. Gah. And you do it from Alan's perspective, but Tron's pain and fury and despair are just so utterly clear throughout. The immediacy. It's such a short moment, but overwhelmingly powerful-- particularly in how it evokes the eternity of trauma Tron went through. >.< Those twenty years (nearly a thousand years in-grid...). Aaah.
Crazily, incredibly good. I hope you write more, though I'm ecstatic already.

I'll usually have a single "head canon" per fandom. Overall, it's less of a headache if I just keep it cohesive in my brain. I might do a one-shot or something that won't fit there for a challenge fic or something.
Perhaps my favorite scene of all in the 1982 movie was the I/O Tower. In the analog world, Alan's punching instructions into a terminal, probably while he's bitching at Lora about how this is going to land all their asses in a jail cell.
In the digital one? Dumont is a badass, Yori's helpful, Sark's on their heels...And Tron is having a whopper of a religious experience.
I can see the aftermath of Legacy as Sam doing the smart thing and trying to get Alan's help on this - maybe even roping in Lora, Roy, and (that universe's version of) Jet. Going it alone was his dad's fuck-up. A handful of trustworthy people can keep each other in check

Walking out of Legacy, one of the first things I said to my twin:
"If Alan was able to comprehend what he created with Tron, it would break his brain. If he was able to comprehend what became of Tron, it woud break HIM."
