Yeah, I ran into the spinning wheels. A few times. And the pigs. Do you know if there's a way to fix people who seem to have been changed? That's really unsettling and I wanted to try to help?
Sorry about the confusion with my name, by the way. Do you not have a name because you don't want one or just... haven't thought of one?
As far as I've observed and personally experienced, these kinds of changes are normally temporary. So they should wear off eventually.
Hopefully before anyone decides to try eating the pigs.
[ Because that'd be right in line with what happened last month, with the "meat" pies the townspeople were serving... But he isn't sure whether he should get into those specifics with the newcomer. It might only serve to upset him rather than help. ]
[Temporary is still probably very frightening for anyone turned into a pig and worrying about becoming the next rack of bacon. Maybe Martin can try to... herd them out of town? Or at least away from the townsfolk. But then would wild animals eat them? He's concerned.]
[Martin's halfway tempted to close this message and just never talk to this man again, but... Jon. He needs to think about Jon and not closing potential avenues of information and assistance.]
Okay. Still. I won't bring them up again.
And people being inconsiderate toward you seems kind of, um... stupid? I mean, the murder thing is scary, but if you're doing it to rescue people, I guess sometimes you have to do what you have to. And that's a good thing. I hope you can find a way around that problem with your programming for next time. At least so you can protect yourself and your friends.
I can't really help with that. I'm okay with tech, but I'm not really a hacker or anything like that.
If it makes you feel better, I'd prefer to not have to kill anyone. But I would like to be able to protect the people I care about, and not be a liability to them when I'm unable to protect myself.
[ That's a lot more personal information than he'd normally share with a perfect stranger, but it feels important that his motives are understood. He'd hardly become an indiscriminate murderer. ]
So you're really not hacking the network? This is the first time it's glitched like this, to my knowledge.
I suppose it could've been worse. I'm glad you replied.
I can definitely understand that. There are a few people I know I'd like to clean the clock on after what they've done to people I care about.
[And he'd had his chance with Elias, but just... couldn't in the end. Not because he doesn't think he could murder that twisted old bastard, but thwarting Peter and the Lonely had been more important in the moment.]
I'm really glad we had a conversation. I would've hated for that first message to be the only impression I had of you. Best of luck! Hopefully, your next message won't go astray. Not sure what's happening, but I'll keep an eye out for any other odd network things.

It's all right.
My handler never named me.

Oh... Is your handler like your mum or dad?

No. My owner.
no subject
I'll go. Sorry.

[ Truthfully, now K feels a bit bad for evidently upsetting Martin, the very thing he'd been trying not to do. ]
You've been very considerate, Martin. I appreciate it. Not many people are, toward my kind.
