It's not easy to do, but it's necessary. If they don't forge lives than they're really not doing anything except what the Computer wants them to do. They're just...cogs in some machine. Matt wants to be more than that. Forging a life is dangerous, but not doing anything with your life, that's a waste.

Maybe he should, but he's trying to have a life anyway.

He can't see that scowl but he can practically feel it. No, he's not expecting anyone, but he's trying to make sure that he hears them before they get there if they do approach.
