003 | Anna Milton | [AUDIO]
[ She's used this thing enough now that she knows how it works quite easily, but she's never actually addressed the network as a whole, and it feels a little strange. After a few seconds of static where she tries to remember just what it was she had planned to say, she starts to speak. ]
Well, uh- Hello everyone? [ ...That is a pretty good place to start, yes. ]
So I'm sure everyone's noticed that it's starting to snow, and um. I can't be the only one who feels a little festive, right?
[ This is getting ridiculous now, obvious statements are obvious. Anna pauses briefly and shakes her head, huffing before continuing. ]
Anyway, I guess the point of this is because I know some of us have friends and family from home, but there are people here who are alone too, and I thought it might be nice if we all do something for each other while we're stuck in this place.
[ That? That is definitely rambling. She starts to speed up her words slightly, and while they're still clearly audible it's obvious she's somewhat regretting this spur of the moment decision. No one else is going to be interested, they don't even know what time of year it is, everyone has enough things to worry about.
She pushes on anyway, though. ]
Look, we used to do this thing at home a while back. Secret Santa? You just get given a name out of a hat and get them some kind of present, that's all it is, but you get to reveal at the end and I guess I just there might be people who are up for it. No one has to do it, obviously, but well. If anyone's interested just let me know, okay?
[ She coughs awkwardly, and there's another small static-filled pause before she adds: ]
Well, that's it. Bye. [ And then the feed cuts out. ]

[Nothing wrong with a little bit of flattery, right? Besides, she meant it. It was a good idea, and Sharon's a little disappointed in herself for not thinking of it first. But she's glad someone else thought of it.]

[ Yeah, that smile is at least 90% relief. ]

So... thank you. And if you need help of some sort, you know where to find me.
