The Anti-Fashion Icon, Alan Bradley

King of "it's comfortable, why wouldn't I wear it?"

(Flynn gave him those pants as a prank, and no one knows where he managed to find the jacket)

The novel of TRON 1982 is such a weird wealth of lore

today I'm delightedly fixated on how it approaches "pop culture references and the question of whether and how to explain them"

(I love this novel but there are times when it felt like in this respect it was trying to be the "Ready Player One" of 1982 and it's hilarious)

Anyway. We see that it at least acknowledged Alan's famous cubicle sign as a reference to something AI-related, although it goes into no more specifics

And (quite helpfully, imo) it also clarifies Lora's odd comment about purchasing your program 30 days in advance (she was doing a travel agent bit, apparently)

And then it feels the need to explain quite thoroughly just what Flynn was referencing with the "wayback machine" quote

(while also showcasing the different formatting standards of the time! Double quotes nested within single quotes, back then. Nice.)

...and then, it starts referencing things that... neither I, nor the actual final cut of the movie, have any bloody idea about

yep. Love this stupid wonderful book

Thinking about how Flynn’s loft is absolutely covered in signs. Street signs, window signs etc. this is his #1 drunk activity. He has a wrench on him he just- he just steals signs.

Many a time he wakes up on Alan and Lora’s couch cradling whatever treasure he found the night before. No matter how Alan tries he’s never going to put it back. Finders keepers.

Lora: "Oh, you want to talk about clothes, Kevin? Should I tell Alan about some of your fashion choices through the years?"

Flynn: "Aw, c'mon Lora, you don't have to bring that up..."

Lora: "Alan, it wasn't too long ago that the boy genius here started gluing all kinds of rhinestones onto everything he wore. When we went to an arcade, he was glittering more than the machines."

Alan: "Is that true, Flynn? Have you been been bedazzling?"

Flynn: "Bedazzling is such an ugly word, Mr. Bradley."

Alan Bradley: "I don't know, he just said something about tampering. ...Do you think it's your Fuccboi Ex agai-"

Lora Baines: "Oh it's DEFINITELY my Fuccboi Ex again."

One of my stupid Tron headCanons is Alan Carys fruit snacks everywhere....

Alan has always been one to always to have snacks around when he's working. He was known as they guy you go to when you want better snacks that weren't in the break room before Flynn took over Encom. He started buying more fruits snacks when he noticed that Sam would gravitate tores them when he would watch Sam when Flynn was in a meeting to boring for a kid during there annual bring your kids to work day or when Sam visits Encom in general. The fruit snacks would then find themselves out side of Encom, when he and Lora would babysit Sam. Which quickly earns Alan first spot as Sams favorite uncle which he happy bragged in Roy's face.

Then when Flynn disappeared in 1989 Alan started to carry fruit snacks with him. Even time when Sam was upset, got trouble, or if he ran away from home ( over all not having a good time) the fruit snacks would the one few things that would calmed him down.

This habit carried over to when Sam got older and it kinda became an inside joke. So when the annual prank on Encom Alan would go up to Sam pull a bag of fruit snacks and say " a fruit snack for you troubles ?" Even though Sam won't say it to Alan's face he appreciate the gesture.

This mostly came out of my fruit snacks addiction. but here are photos I bady Photoshop with out Photoshop of Alan holding fruit snacks.

This week’s #FicRecFriday is “Initiative” by thornmallow!

This was recommended by @everythingcounts2007remaster, who said the following:

“ The Lora POV in this is fucking killer. I love all the little fictions she comes up with as she daydreams about an Alan she barely knows ("She imagines that he’s gone on dates before—a few in high school, a few more in college—and that they were fumbling, awkward experiences with perfectly nice girls who were nevertheless hoping for a boyfriend that smiled once in a while." I mean LOOK at that). Some of the best characterization of the main three I've ever seen.”

If you like this fic, be sure to leave a kudos and/or comment!

If Alan's last name is Bradley and Lora's last name is Baines then their ship name could be "Brains" and I kinda love that for them
