You can never say that I didn't try
Who: Rinzler and OPEN
When: April 14th through the 24th
Where: the Hold
What: Rinzler killed some people and copes poorly. Set after this log.
Warnings: references to character death and mindscrew, glowy injuries, unfortunate assumptions. (See also: Rinzler.)
The first place Rinzler woke up in this system was a cell. He'd been locked in after a fight with his duplicate—with Tron. Not that the enforcer had been capable then of even hearing the older version's name. Rinzler had attacked because he had to, because the overrides built in his mind detected conflict and demanded he delete the source. Since then, he's shattered that if/then chain. Chipped away at the filters on his memories, even managed, once or twice, to speak.
But he's back where he started, and he knows better than to expect things to end the same way.
For the most part, visitors will find Rinzler seated on the low bench back against the wall. Circuits burn dimly in the shadows, almost outshone by the dull glint of fractured code that covers a full half of the enforcer's core. He's turned slightly to conceal the injured side, but the spiderwebbing cracks through code and armor are obvious to see, and he doesn't have the power to refresh his shell and cover up the damage.
The low rattle of corrupted code echoes through the cell and down the corridor, though it does nothing to compete with the invectives from the user locked in one door down. Rinzler approaches shutdown just once, curled up against the wall, and if the flickering lights and twitch of limbs is any sign, it's anything but restful. The program won't notice anyone approaching then, but he probably wouldn't mind being woken.
Once or twice, Rinzler rises, pacing, frustration and the need to move boiling up through the despair. There's nowhere to go, though, nothing to do, and even that much risks opening his damage further. Maybe he should. Fracture, break, rip himself apart and leave them voxels on the floor to claim and punish. Rinzler wonders if he ever tried before. If he does, he can't remember. He wonders what they'll make him into. Alan-one had told him what would happen, told him he'd correct the fault if Rinzler fought again. Now two users are dead, and if there's any hope at all, it's that they'll decide he's too worthless to salvage.
[[ooc:the duration during which Rinzler can be visited depends largely on the results of his trial, so there may be some time-wobbling. In particular, if he ends up with solitary confinement... no longer applicable; Rinzler will be visitable for both the trial period and his sentence. ETA 2: As of the 20th, temperature conditions will be improved thanks to Vision + co.

"You killed crewmates. Even if we don't like each other, we're in this together. Maybe people forget. It was always important to remember back home. I guess I got used to that."
He tipped his head to look back at Rinzler.
"Why did you fight each other so much to begin with?"
no subject
He doesn't bother explaining that much, though. It's clear Miller doesn't see things the same way, and Rinzler doesn't want to think about what's coming.
Clarify.
The 'you', specifically.
no subject
"You in the plural form. What instigated the rivalry between you and Peter. What encouraged Alice's involvement? We heard one side, but your difficulties with communication... or your disappointment in yourself... made your side more obscure."
no subject
Still, Miller's asking now, and if it takes far longer than it should to compile a reply, Rinzler does type up the data.
User (Peter_Maximoff) attacked on day of user's import.
User (Alice_Quinn) never encountered. Network communications indicate high probability: providing assistance to ally.
And, a short ping to Miller's MID will lead him to the network records. Let it never be said that Rinzler doesn't do his research. Or creep on other people's conversations. Same difference, right?
no subject
"You should have brought that up at the trial. It would have been valuable to know at theirs." It didn't change what Rinzler had done, but seeing how long-standing the grudge had been, at least from the other side, might have swayed opinions about Peter and Alice. Or at least gave a more clear view of what they had done.
"The truth is important in these situations. The whole truth."
no subject
No new data.
He'd attacked the user, and the users plotted to wipe him. Everyone knew that already.
