So I'm still pretty new to this, but I understand many people have some kind of thing where they ask for feedback on how one is playing the character? So this is that. (If I'm messing something up, please do tell me, either here or elsewhere.)  Comments are screened.

Also, below the cut is an easy-access list of threads involving Yori.

Why? Because Yori got jealous of other programs being better organized (hi, Ram!) Also, because my sister is confused.

I don't think this will actually make her any less confused, but at least there are links!

Divided into two partly-separate continuities.

First, the_grid, a comm where there were actual rules, sadly silent now. This was set during Clu's rule, with most of the Isos already derezzed and the remainder in hiding. Roughly chronological order.

1. Flashback thread, happier days with Flynn on the Grid.  Yori talks to Flynn, and eventually Tron arrives.

And then, of course, bad things happen.

See also: Yori's application for the_grid.

2. Yori, going by the alias Trace, tries to conduct Resistance business. Exim and Ryca, Resistance allies, show up.

See also: A few encrypted notes on Resistance activities.

3. Yori visits the Archives and speaks briefly to Kleio.

4. Yori meets Shor, a neutral designer.

See also: Yori reacts to Jazz's arrest.

5. Rescue mission. Jazz played a very foolish prank, and bad things happen to programs who make the Black Guard angry. Yori has a chance to help; Symantec and Rinzler oppose the rescue. (NPC Ril has his brief moment of glory here, poor guy.)

6. Interlude to rescue mission--Yori talks with Exim in a safehouse.

See also: Following the rescue mission, Yori realizes that Tron is alive--and that he is Rinzler.

7. Aftermath of rescue mission. Yori, Exim, and Jazz talk in the safehouse.

See also: Yori's still trying to deal with the Rinzler thing.

8. Aftermath of rescue mission. Yori speaks with Gem.

9. Getting Jazz out of town seems like a good idea. Quorra shows up, followed by Ryca.

10. Something weird turns up in the Outlands.

11. (locked post) Some indeterminate time later. What better place to gather information than a masquerade ball?  ...okay, so it's a stupid risk, but Rinzler might show up!

If anyone would like to keep this continuity going, Yori and I are more than willing, and my sister (Ryca) could probably be bribed.

Second rough continuity, post-Legacy, taking place in grid_lined. This is a sandbox Tron comm, no application necessary, multiple versions welcome, timelines very muddled, blame everything on that Portal explosion. (As a Portal program, Yori feels a need to make things make sense. She has dubious success.)

1. Lots of programs are hanging out in the End of Line club, mysteriously repaired. Yori meets Castor/Zuse, and things go poorly.

2. Yori speaks with a version of Tron who has put the Arena back into order. Then she runs into an old enemy, Symantec. Angst for everyone!

3. Meeting Ram goes much better.

4. Running into a younger version of Flynn, with mixed results.

5. Newcomers are wandering the streets of Tron City. Yori meets Gradient.

6. For a User, Nick has a sad lack of confidence. Well. A slightly reassuring lack of confidence, if one is a program who spent enough time around Flynn and then Clu.

7. Yori meets Papri, word processing program.

8. At least one newcomer drops unexpectedly into the Arena. Ram and Yori try to help Lizor.

9. Yori does some rebuilding of public space, and meets a number of programs, including Gem, Sky, and Rinzler.

10. At the Archives, Yori and Lizor look for information about his shattered past and the Iso he loves.

11. Tron tries to have a private word with Clu. Privacy just isn't what it used to be.

12. Ram's User makes an appearance. Yori is delighted to meet him.

13. Quorra arrives on the Grid.

14. Yori meets a Tron/Rinzler struggling with identity.

15. A new version of Ram without previous memories arrives from an outside system, which is confusing, but useful information to know.

16. Flynn shows up on the Grid again!

17. Some time after Lizor's beloved Aadi turns up ( here), Yori meets her and promptly contacts Lizor.

18. Rinzler runs into some people, including a newly rezzed Anon.

19. Yori meets Anon.

20. A new and nervous program, Drive, arrives on the Grid.

21. At the End of Line again, slightly less angst; Yori talks to Gem and Lizor, and sees Anon again.

22. Another Tron arrives by the Sea.  Not Yori's, more the pity, but nice to see.

23. Yori meets Ram on the train, to her surprise.

24. A new Quorra arrives.

25. It...appears to be a kitten-Rinzler?  Yori is puzzled.

26. A new post-Portal Flynn appears.  Yori's got some issues.

27. Oh, look, it's an Encom-style Bit!

28. OH NO IT'S CLU--oops, that's an Encom Clu?

29. There's a party in the park.  Yori meets a version of her User, Lora!

30. Kleio arrives disoriented in the Archives.

31. It's another Tron!--still not Yori's.

32. Echo, a  supporter of Clu, arrives in the park and is less than pleased.

33. Yori finds a Clu--really the Grid one this time.  She doesn't want him.

34. A repair program, Fire, arrives.  NPC Ril makes an appearance.

At this point Yori is absent for some time, out at the Portal, because her player can't write.

Meanwhile an especially violent Rinzler blows up an Iso building.

1. Yori reacts, and also sees Lizor, Flynn, a new Tron, Fire's rebuilding team, and eventually Ram.

2. Taking a little time away, Yori visits Aadi's art gallery.  While there, she briefly meets Radia.

3. The Alan Flynn told her about returns, and Yori has a very long talk.

4. Yet another Rinzler seems to have turned up.  He remembers...something.

5. A new Iso, Krypton, appears.

6. Lora sends the Grid oranges!  Yori and others try collecting them.

7. Yori reports to Gem's Tron in the Arena.

8. A young version of Roy, Ram's User, arrives.

9. The former kitten-Rinzler, now bipedal again and helmetless, is having some issues.  Yori tries to help.

10. Another and younger version of Alan arrives.

11. A new Quorra is in the Grid's Arcade analog.

12. Flynn and everyone are trying to do something about at least one of the unknown, unstable Rinzlers.  Flynn's built a labyrinth.  Good luck holding him?

13. Ack!  It's Clu!  And wow, that's an impressive argument.  (Moved forward in timeline to allow reactions when thread ends.)
