[ Meg wanted to just send out a text, quick and to the point. But, she needed this to be a little personal because that's all it was. He was her family and she'd gone four long years without him. Having him back for a little under 2 months was more than she could have had.
It could be all she will have. She doesn't know.
And that's why she needs to do this. She might not have bothered otherwise... Back home, she wasn't responsible for the announcements or notifications to family and friends, but her mother wasn't here. She spent a long time wondering if she should even do this or let people find out on their own, but it was the right thing to do. His leaving impacted more than just her. When he hadn't come back, she'd figured he might've been caught up with whatever was going on, but then the other pieces fell into place. He'd been sent away. This time, she promises to herself, she won't lash out and destroy what she's kind of set herself up for here. It hurts. It hurts, but it's a familiar pain.
At least she knows what to do with it now and that she can fix it. No, now that she will fix it. Her voice is even when she finally addresses the network, wanting to keep this as brief as possible. It was easier to internalize it than to scream and cry. Though, she can't stop a few tears as she can hear his voice in her mind. Just like she can't help the way her voice cracks at his name.
Be strong for me, Meglet. It'll all work itself out. You'll see. ]
For anyone who might have known him, Dr. Alex Murry is gone. He did wall research and development. I--
[ She's not sure what else needs to be said. Apologizing feels wrong. She can only hope that he didn't go back to Camazotz. Or if he did, he isn't there alone for long. There's a pause filled with a shaky breath as she searches for how to end this before just turning it off. ]

I can’t take credit for it. [ Her parents were great and tended to be creative with naming, even if hers was kinda plain. She liked it. ] John’s a good name for a dog. [ There’s something so fun when it comes to dogs that aren’t called by the typical names. She thinks for a long moment, remembering something from when she’d first arrived. ]
Is John a German Shepherd?

It’s okay. [ Besides, she was extremely distracted by the guy with the dog that was the spitting image of her father. Someone she needed to prepare herself to possibly see again. ] Fortinbras isn’t the best when it comes to following instructions.
