 bleak reality 2005-02-09 . chapter 1Kid poses questions that never get answered, or ever really noticed, in the Matrix trilogy. The idea that someone can self-substantiate, can wake up purely of their own will, is an awesome concept, and it's a pity the Wachowskis never delved into it. Really, what Kid does might almost be what happened to the first One, if there ever was a first.
Thankyou for providing another side to this, for adding depths previously ignored. The similarities drawn between Neo and Kid work well, as does the suggestion that Neo was remarkable from the very beginning - with the Sight.
The small details like "although Neo had a feeling this had more to do with its current lack of Trinity than anything else" are familiar, and it's easy to settle in comfortably with your style of writing.
I'll look forward to more from you. |
