Sitting in his chair, feet propped up on a suitable stool, and watching his favourite .mpeg on a vidwindow, Matrix had never felt more at ease in all his runtime. After having received his link command in what had to be one of the oddest weddings Mainframe had yet seen, he'd been feeling a sense of calm about him. Something akin to being hugged by that bear from Milliways, but without the Daemon-esque unnatural cheerfulness that came with it.
More like, an assurance that what he had now wasn't going to be taken from him anytime soon.
He had a wife, a dog, a place to live, and friends and family around him. All was good.
In user terms it would be like someone taking a bit of sandpaper to his edges and smoothing them a bit. Not enough to erase all of his character; just enough to take some of the harshness from it.
He wondered to himself if this was something unique, or something others felt when they got their link commands.
Did Bob and Dot feel like this? Did his parents?
He smiled slightly. If Ray Tracer were here Matrix might even tolerate any attentions the surfer might give to AndrAIa. Now he knew without a doubt she wasn't going anywhere, and all the flirtings to come could be taken in stride.
Or, he might, with all the politeness he could muster, tell the offender exactly where they could download themselves.
He was, after all, still himself. Link command or no.
