[The video, when it begins, is on a loop: three minute segments of anonymous space, with a steady stream of white noise.
The white noise continues until, eventually, it is broken by a voice thick with electronic distortion.]
Hello, imPorts.
The natives here are more than happy to believe that their government is looking out for their best interest. The same cannot be said for us, the imPorts: we who were dragged here from our homes, assigned houses, powers, jobs. Categorized, classified, tracked, yes, and monitored, paid off within a meager system of incentivization and reward, motivated by our own complacency to both sit down and shut up. From the dawn of imPort history it has been left up to us, the imPorts, to figure out this whole new life beneath these new and foreign stars. And does the government care? No. Not as long as you follow their rules. Do they care about our best interests? No. They only care that we abide by their rules.
We are the Constellation, and we are here to tell you that we do not believe in these rules. We have been hard at work figuring out our new lives, for you. And we have found that while we were busy not trusting the government--they have been just as busy not trusting us.
We, the imPorts, are not favored children. We, the imPorts, are not cherished heroes. We are the ones who are watched, always, by the most fixed and sleepless and critical of eyes.
We have a list, imPorts, a list that we are leaking to you now, live, for your perusal and your understanding.
Fuu Hououji. Commander Shepherd. Lucifer. Jacob Taylor. L'Arachel. Daisy Johnson. Count Dooku. The Doctor.
This, fellow imPorts, is a watch list. A list of your brothers and sisters who the government deemed watchworthy. People of interest. Some of them are still with us. Some of them are gone. And whether or not any of these people are worthily deemed dangerous, we want you, the people, to know: this is what happens when you go against the grain. Labeled as agents opposed. Granted their freedom under secret scrutiny. Catch, and tag, and release.
To those who will, inevitably, dismiss this list as inconsequential: stay tuned. This is not the only list.
And this will not be our one and only release to you, our public.
Remember: the only power that we have, imPorts, is the power that we give to ourselves. The only limits to that power are the limits that we allow. Do not forget this. Consider yourselves warned.
[The video of space continues for another minute after the voice ends. The volume of the white noise increases until it is, abruptly, cut off with a burst of static.]
[as per last year's watch list.]

unpleasant punishment would be a correction of this benefit should the government find it within their means to alter these resurrections
though we must ask ourselves, who is to say that they already haven't found these means?
in the grander scheme of history of this country, we, the imPorts, have come to matter quite a lot
text but not anon because.... Whats The Point
without choice?
now, that is the best news i have heard all week!
yes, i can see that in how there is supposedly a war going on yet no body of governance sees fit to deploy the ones that could end it quickly.
don't get me wrong, i do love a spot of war!
it's just stupid.
anon text forever bc secrets
but if we are honest, we consider this benefit a mixed bag
[Or Darlene does, anyways.]
what about it do you yourself find stupid
such secret much intrigue
which really isn't all that long.
inconvenient, being organic. all that mortality.
no, i've decided i quite like it.
if i'm to be stuck here for the foreseeable future, watching moronic humans murder each other over and over is certainly one of the options i'd like to have.
no subject
you would find it a scream
if your intent is only to watch we suggest you start there
no subject
the real thing is much more interesting.
especially when it's boiling away like this.

i will be around long after it has turned to dust.
this is not the first uprising i have seen, nor will it be the last.
no subject
we cannot say
as part of the larger body of imPorts, we regret to inform you that you will become caught up in the collective fate of others
the batch is made not on what is organic and what is not but what you are
a small definition that takes very little into consideration but how you came to be in this world
if you do not believe us, we suggest you go AWOL now and get it out of the way
no subject
if that happens, i will do what i was made to do and kill until i no longer need to.
then maybe i'll chose to stop.
no subject
which we are skeptical for every imPort
no subject
if an attempt to take away my free will is made, there will be no survivors.
this i guarantee.
