[written, backdated to shortly after the end of the family reunion]

[There's a loud rumbling sound, agitated as can be as Rinzler debates the journal in front of him.  World changes really did leave him feeling odd.  And there was the whole family thing.]  A user again?

Felt strange.  Had family..  Like users do....

Was that all normal for users?

[CLU]

Status, master?

Am normal again.

Users? What do you mean by that?

Written

[foughtfortheusers]

Human. I was a human. I am a program.

Rinzler

[perfectisnteasy]

Yeah, me too.

... Place sure does like changing us into Users, doesn'it ...

[he sounds less bothered about it, this time, somehow. more thoughtful. much, much more thoughtful]

You're digital?

...Do you know Mr. Flynn?

CLU

[foughtfortheusers]

Does it a lot.

Better than cat.

Written

[foughtfortheusers]

Yes.

User. Creator of the Grid.

Re: Written

[biggestdreamer]

Really? He told me about the programs but I didn't know he created your grid!

Rinzler, to end

[perfectisnteasy]

Yeah, I've noticed. ... Doesn't leave us a lot of time to work on our directives.

[we don't talk about the cat thing. you have pretty much ruined cats for him forever. cats are bad now. yep.]

[foughtfortheusers]

Created the new Grid.

[foughtfortheusers]

No, it does not, Master.

[biggestdreamer]

You can create new ones?

I wonder... But its probably not possible for the Digital World. It still has to heal a lot.

[foughtfortheusers]

New system, little user.

[biggestdreamer]

Why do you call me a user?

[perfectisnteasy]

I'm not exactly about to wait around for it to just do the next thing it comes up with, either, though. Maybe we need to break our directives down into smaller goals.

[foughtfortheusers]

Most here are. Human.

[foughtfortheusers]

It would help, master.

Could get pieces done. Not fail large directives.

Orders?

[biggestdreamer]

But what is a user?

[perfectisnteasy]

Not sure yet ... I gotta give this some thought, see how to break it down. [and talk to Flynn, but shh]

I'll get back to ya.

[foughtfortheusers]

A human.

[foughtfortheusers]

Will be waiting, Master.

[biggestdreamer]

Oh. I guess that makes sense?

At home all the digimon... or programs, I guess. They just called me Tamer. Or Human.
