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.

...What hit list?

[hot_mes]

...dammit, they blocked me! I can't see it now.

The Null just transmitted a list of people they want killed. I can only imagine if I lost access to the message, I'm now on it.

[private|voice]

[circumitus]

Your name was added. Think you might've been booted off the call list before that happened.

[It does not take her too long to respond to this, though she comes at it from another direction.]

I do not wish to kill anyone, but I would be more than willing to help protect anyone on that list who is not capable of protecting themselves.

[blessedmaiden]

[She waves the names written on the paper in front of the screen, living in the library and having no idea how to screenshot has its advantages... and yes she will add all new names until she has no longer access.]

The names up so far- [She still has to be blocked, unlike him] If you want to share.

I'd say the priority now is to make a group to protect the targets.

voice.

[puzzlingly]

Did they block you too?

[utulien_aure]

...Of course they did. I haven't seen anything, though....

[After a few attempts of his own to find it, Fingon's back.]

Nothing. Well, congratulations and welcome. I must be on it as well.

[hot_mes]

Yeah, I saw you there, Fingon-ya. As well as what I assume are several of your people.

[private|voice]

[hot_mes]

Figures. Thanks for letting me know.

Oh well, at least now we know their true intentions.

voice

[hot_mes]

[he recognizes the voice, to a point]

...what can you do? Not that I want to be in charge but I assume anyone and everyone who wants to help should organize somehow.

[sightlessly]

Yeah. More names have been popping up. Gonna guess you're one of them. I'll drop the full list to the network.

[hot_mes]

Yes, good. Please do. I was too slow, I didn't write anything down before shooting off my mouth.

voice.

[hot_mes]

Yeah.

You're not going to get pissy if I decide to protect you, are you?

voice

[notimpervious]

[She is very much going to not refer to the unfortunate incident during which they met, i.e., the paintball compulsion event.]

I have a gun. I am a good marksman. I am skilled in several forms of martial arts. If someone were to attack, provided they are in any way like humans, I know where to strike to stop a person without killing or irreparably hurting them.

[Resume over.]

[hot_mes]

good. do it. thanks.

if anyone responds saying they'll take the bounty, name names.

[blessedmaiden]

Just know they're still adding peo- aaand I'm out. I'll try to see if I can convince my friend to keep quiet and keep access to sai post, in the meanwhile... that's what I have.

[19 names, that's already a lot of people...]

We need to organize ourselves, quickly.

[private|voice]

[circumitus]

Sort of.

Have a few questions -- about your abilities. Not on here, though.

[If the Null are capable of hacking into their network the way they are, she'd rather keep any discussion about them as private as possible. Even more private than the private lock.]

voice

[hot_mes]

[he hasn't forgotten, but hey, that's actually a good resume. Thanks Brennan]

Good. I'm not going to be so arrogant to assume that only people with powers and abilities are any use here. Sounds like we're going to need anyone who can so much as throw a punch.

[private|voice]

[hot_mes]

Probably for the best. [he knows full well how not to talk on unsecured lines, even if said lines are...telepathic snails?] I'm at the clinic right now.

[hot_mes]

No kidding. Maybe someone on the Guard with that kind of experience is up for the task.

[he may be a pirate captain but he's also a loner. He's not going to be in charge if he doesn't have to be]

voice.

[puzzlingly]

Protect me from what?

[voice; private]

[synthedick]

I'm keeping an eye out for anyone who looks like they might jump at this chance, even if there are damn kids on that list. You be careful, all right?

[blessedmaiden]

I have zero experience in coordinating groups but I'm sure we can figure out something. Maybe we could make a public announcement looking for some people intersted in guarding others?

Ah... but how do we know who is really trying to protect and who isn't just attempting to approach the targets?

[sightlessly]

Done.

I'm going to assume you're Trafalgar Law. Only a couple names have been added since it was first posted. I know the second name.

Can you defend yourself?

[Audo]

[drabsolutelynot]

That list is still growing.
