[Video]

[sightlessly]

[For once Matt has the video on. It's no use to him, but he wants his face to be seen this time, because this is serious. And he's furious.]

I'm going to guess most of us read the post that the ones who call themselves the Null posted. If you didn't, it's because you're on their list. The list of targets they've asked us to kill in exchange for the location of the god killer. I'm not the first to post about it either, but the louder the signal, the less chance it can be missed or ignored.

And it needs to be known.

This is the list of names as of this moment.

I'm no fan of the "gods" who brought us here. I'm no fan of these null either. But I refuse to stand by while people are used as pawns and killed. This is their game, not ours.

[His voice is low. No sunglasses this time. And even if his eyes can't see, they can absolutely reflect indignation and fury. And they are. Clearly.]

If you know anyone on this list, reach out to them. Warn them.

If you are on this list and cannot protect yourself, reach out to someone you trust to help. If you cannot protect yourself, I can help. I will help. Lives are not games or currency.

[puzzlingly]

Yeah.

「Naw, he good.」

You think they heard that?

[sightlessly]

Glad to hear it.

[Atem. Atem Atem Atem.]

Yeah, I'm sure they're paying attention.

[He thinks so anyway. If he were them, he would be. It's important to know one's opposition.]

[puzzlingly]

Excellent.

「His smirk is so blatant that it can be heard, just as usual.」

Glad to have you on this side, Matt. Let me know if you need anything.

[sightlessly]

No other side to be on. Glad that you agree.

[Very clearly agree.]

Try not to antagonize the hit-list robots too much more. And if you need help, call and I will be there.

[Atem's a good kid. One of the first that Matt made in this place. So he cares.]

[puzzlingly]

「And he nods... wait no, oops, sorry Matt.」

I won't make any promises about that, but I appreciate it.

「Not gonna put his friends in danger for a stupid list. Besides, he firmly believes nothing wrong is gonna happen.




Hah.」

[sightlessly]

Don't be too stubborn, kid.

[Yes, kid. Thousand year old pharaoh whatever still a kid.]

We're the best resource we have here, is all of us remembering that the only people on our side is each other.

[puzzlingly]

I know what you mean, I will not agitate them more than they deserve, but I wouldn't want anyone to put their life on the line if I needed any help. Besides, I want to trust us. That is precisely what the Null are looking for, to divide us and I will not fall for it.

「He still appreciates the offer... But he likes Matt enough to be asking him.」

It will be alright.

「Yep.」

[sightlessly]

You're right about that. They want to turn is against each other. I think most of us understand that, most of us won't take the bait. But that doesn't mean some won't. I'm not looking to start a fight, but I will fight back to defend my friends. And the people here who can't defend themselves.

[It feels so much like back home with this, a place on the verge of tearing itself apart and Matt Murdock is honestly exhausted. So much for giving up being the Daredevil.]

I hope you're right. I hope it is.

[He's just not optimistic.]

[puzzlingly]

「He remembers the first time he met Matt and how ridiculous it was... That was weird.」

Hey... I hope you're not calling me weak, Matt!

「POUTING... also totally joking. A little.」

[sightlessly]

[That will earn a laugh, even if there is a weariness in the sound.]

Wouldn't dream of it, Atem.

[Small though. Small with a big mouth that is drawing a lot of attention. That's what worries Matt.]

[puzzlingly]

Okay... Good.

「He cannot see him, but he's giving him a bright smile.

He's never been known for being the silent type... Sorry, Matt.」

I'll keep in contact. Try to rest.

「And he's gone.」
