I've been through this before. I've been targeted on a hit list like this, precisely five days before I arrived in this world.

I guessed from the wording of the Null broadcast that some people might not have seen that they were named as targets. Consider this fair warning to everyone in this city: the Null would rather kill you than work with you.

[a pause, and then his tone turns positively savage]

As I did before, I'll do again. My only target is the one putting out the hit list. I will destroy the Null and anyone who tries to kill us. Anyone who'd foolishly sacrifice our chances of getting home for this death game should be dealt with, and I have no problem doing so.

[addendum message, five minutes later:]

I've been blocked from the message. Anyone who was quick enough to copy it, we'd appreciate a public airing of the names on the list.

True.

It looks like some of us doctors are leading the charge, so to speak.

[not-so-subtle hint that the clinic is where he'll be, if anyone wants to chat in person]

Seems appropriate, somehow.

[Matt is actually heading to the clinic to pay a visit to a couple people. If he runs into this guy there, he'll definitely make a point to speak to him off the network, away from prying ears and eyes.]

better than nothing, I guess

[he will indeed be there. He's got medications to research.]
