Summary
Clu will pull Rinzler close to him, grabbing onto whatever handhold he can, too tightly, and his speech will stretch into a long parade of names Rinzler doesn’t know. Every program knows that Tron has been dead for a rather long time. According to the system admin, there is one final loose end to tie up, one by the name of the Renegade.
A prequel to Data Remanence, but can be read as a standalone.

Summary
Tron has been dead for a long, long time. Yori has carried on, living a tired half-life at the edges of Clu's reign. She's suspected for nearly as long that something far worse has happened to Tron. Her suspicions are finally confirmed when she drags a nearly-derezzed Rinzler from the Sea of Simulation. They've both been haunting themselves for so, so long.

Summary
Jayce and Viktor expected themselves to be erased by the rune on top of the Hexgates- a final act as partners. Instead, they find themselves thrown back in time, right before Viktor began experimenting with the Hexcore. Jayce swears not to waste this second chance in the new timeline- they'll fix their mistakes and he'll finally tell Viktor how he really feels. But with suspicions of them growing, and Viktor experiencing arcane-induced transformations, the pair must work together to ensure a future for both themselves and the twin cities.

Summary
Clu tore Tron out and twisted whatever was left into his favorite guard dog. Yori knows there's no going back, no matter how much she wants to run. So maybe it doesn't matter if Rinzler can't recall who he was before, if Yori recognizes his face and little else. It's a horrible thing, to live past the end of one's own myth. At least they can go haunting together.
A (mostly) post-Tron:Legacy series focused on Yori and Rinzler following Clu's de-rezzing.

Summary
Steve, it's not your fault, Sam had tried to say, before Steve cut him off, and Steve doesn't think that's untrue so much as it's irrelevant; fault's got nothing to do with it. It's just—wrong. It's wrong. Steve couldn't wrap his head around it the first time, how wrong it was. Steve should have gone first. Was supposed to. Bucky could have carried on without Steve, he knows, but Steve without Bucky is a zero sum. There should never be a world that Steve is in and Bucky isn't.

Summary
STATUS: Hiatus
Jayce and Viktor are hurled out of the anomaly and dropped into the field where it all began. While it seems like the opportunity for a fresh start, Jayce's health rapidly begins to decline. In a desperate bid to save his partner, Viktor makes a series of shocking discoveries about Jayce's body and mental state... leading Viktor to believe that *his* Jayce is not what emerged from the Arcane with him.
Jayce, struggling with the effects of the Arcane on his mental state, also begins to wonder if he is himself anymore.
