on getting bumped back to pre-AU for game apping purposes

[perfectisnteasy]

So this is it, huh? You really gave me the big rollback. 2.0. Proper canon review and everything.

Sure you're not maxin' out your system resources, here, kid? I mean, I know I'm a vital program to this whole Thing you're goin' through, and you've got a game plan. But I'm not likin' the idea of not being the one calling the shots.

That's okay, though.

Games change.

I should know.

[Rinzler doesn't have that memory. At least not of his own. He pulled some interesting memory files off a user's disk once, though.

All the same, he remembers more than he's meant to, by now. Head stays low, his usual hunch putting him below the other program's height. He doesn't meet the admin's eyes, though his own stare won't quite stay down, either.

A short nod. Acknowledgement. Sound ticks out, faintly unsteady. He doesn't have much else to query. Even if he were meant to ask.]

What, now I get the guilt? ... That's nice, man, that's some fine timing.

[Surprise brings the enforcer's stare up more quickly than defiance could have managed. There's a skip to his sound. Irritation he can't contain. Or doesn't bother to. It's not as if much can happen to him, here.]

Guilt?

[From you? Or for you, either way. Nothing Rinzler would have expected.]
