Sam Flynn

He'd started visiting her every year on his birthday after Flynn had disappeared, but as he remembered next to nothing about her, Sam tried to tell himself he only went because it reminded him of his dad and not because he had missed the presence of his mother every single day of his life.

He supposed he should have known better than to let Quorra try the spoonful of banana, and vanilla ice cream with strawberry sauce on it, since its predecessor ended up being the last he enjoyed of that particular banana split sundae.

[takes place 6-8 months after Tron: Legacy]


It was a rainy Saturday, not fit for anything. The arcade was in the middle of renovations to bring the building back up to code, Sam's Encom business was done for the week - the advantage of only being there Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, he supposed - and he was taking a break from reading his father's notes to play something violent on his Playstation 3. He had the volume turned off, so as not to disturb Quorra, who was sitting by the window, watching the fat drops of water hit the pavement. Her chin rested in her hand as her fingers rested upon her lips; she had one knee tucked up close to her chest as the other stretched out before her while Marv kept her thigh warm. Quorra loved watching the weather patterns and inclement weather continued to hold a strange fascination for her. Ordered chaos, she had once described it, and Sam had to agree.

The city sprawled out before him as dusk descended and he realized that the last time he had stood here had been the night that his entire life changed. Instead of his base-jumping gear, however, he was now in a business suit and he refrained from walking out onto the catwalk as his shoes had no traction out there. From his spot by the door he still had an amazing view of everything, and he imagined that he could see his place down by the water's edge. Other than that, the sights and sounds of the world as the tail-end of rush hour raced along blurred in his vision and all Sam Flynn could see were clusters of information as they moved through a computer. They looked like ships, motorcycles, and fighter jets... The freeways were circuits as his brain superimposed a realm that the world would never see over the city like a hallucination.
