Your resistance will be noted.

[Well, goodbye to her plan to pretend to be on their side and study their moves before deciding what to do...]

What is the point? They WILL return to life.

[Nope, nope, nope, she's not hurting other people. That's how far she can go trying to prove to be on their side.]

If Hope is killed then revival will be unlikely.

There's something very wrong with you. Who asks for that kind of thing??

We are at war.

[Looking at those names... Yeah, she wants nothing more than to tell them to go fuck themselves.]

what evidence would suffice? you asking for a high res photo of their corpse or something?

[01101110]

You will leave the body intact. Contact us with the information and we will confirm from there.

We will know if we are lied to.

That's it?

Do you want everyone on that list before you'll give the weapon?

Only one is necessary.

[notimpervious]

[!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?]

I refuse.

[01101110]

Do you oppose us?

[fracturedbeauty]

Excuse you, remove Curufin from your list immediately.

[01101110]

He resisted.

Genocidal murderers do not care who they kill. They only care about their own twisted goals.

[She has seen too much death as a result of the work of people like these Null.]

Go fuck yourselves, if you're even capable of it.

Fuck. Off. No one here is going to do shit for you now. Deal is off.

[Ephemera doesn't trust the Null one way or another, but until this point, didn't have strong feelings about them.

Congratulations. He's pissed now.]

Just so everyone knows? Fuck with those kids and I will hurt you.

[01101110]

Your kind places an absurdly large value on your young.

[ That is literally everyone else in his house. He's not sure whether to be proud he managed to fool the Null into thinking he was neutral or not... mostly he's just horrified, and wishing he had more ammo. ]

I hope you know this will only serve to unite the majority of the city against you.

[01101110]

We do not fear them.

[drabsolutelynot]

You're advocating the murder of children. That is intolerable. And the deplorable wretch that would even consider taking such action should keep a wary eye over their shoulders.

[Text]

[01101110]

You would oppose us?

[roseofthetyrells]

If you think I'm cooperating with your little scheme, you are quite mad.

text

[01101110]

We understand that some of you are incapable of killing others. If you do not oppose us, we will keep you in consideration.

Who are these people and what did they do to piss you off so bad?

[01101110]

They opposed us.

What the fuck is wrong with you?
I wasn't sure whose side to be on but you just made my choice for me.
You're sick. Some of those people are kids!!!

You yourselves have said that trust must be established, Null. That does go both ways. Thus far you have yet to present us with any proof that you can follow through on any of your promises. In my line of work, we always insisted on a portion of our price up front to secure our services and then the bulk of the payment upon completion of the task.

Text

[01101110]

We do not lie. We have no need to. There is a weapon that has been transported into the city. This will be proof enough.

[ Wash is brand new but he still recognizes names on that list. And now it's growing. He will definitely not be helping the Null, in fact he'll actively protect anyone who might need it. ]

Wow. So you're like "cartoon villain" level enemies. Good to know.

w-what?? kill alphys? why?

Text

[01101110]

Alphys has opposed us and therefore allies with the parasites.

[Video]

[lifetothefullest]

[Wow, for once everyone else has the 'murder is bad' angle covered, so Lance is going to bring up a different issue entirely--]

The deal you offered previously was to kill Hope, and that's all. Changing the arrangement makes it difficult to trust that you're planning to follow through, rather than change the agreement again in the future.

[Not that he cares since he's already decided against being personally involved, but just saying. He wants to see how the Null respond, but also to make the point obvious to anyone else stalking responses.]

[Text]

[01101110]

We change nothing. We will honor our deal.

There are those of you who seek to manipulate us into telling you our plans and the location of our god killer. We do not take kindly to this. You must prove your adherence to our plan before we will proceed.

[For a moment, he's not going to respond to this, but rather watch it, as usual. Most of what he would have said has been said already, anyway.

But then he sees Ellie's name on there, along with Duck, and he absolutely sees red.]

You realize some of those people you've listed are just kids, right?
