Hello everyone. If you don't know me, my name is Jane Porter. [This is said with a little wave. Years using devices like this and she still isn't sure how to begin a transmission without feeling awkward about it.

Well, moving on!]

I know things have been... very difficult lately. [Understatement.] And a lot of people are probably feeling very worried. Now, I'm... not a therapist, or anything like that. I most certainly wouldn't claim to be one at all.

But what I certainly am is somebody who cares about other people. So, I'd like to table an open offer to anyone who might like to just... sit down with a cup of tea, or take a walk, and have a chat. [She pauses here and gives a soft little smile.]

About anything at all. Please don't hesitate to reach out. If not to me, then to someone. ... You don't need to go through anything alone.

[And, with the same faint awkwardness that she started with, she signs off with that.]

Fear not, for I have no reason to do you harm.

[Seeing as she's not his enemy and his Dark Brotherhood duties are on hold.]

I've thought about teaching Sil letters, but I'm half afraid she'd use the knowledge to write insults with web.

[cantgetanyworse]

Perhaps she already knows them and is just rather polite.

[A spider that size, there has to be some kind of intelligence in there, right..?]

[fireandhoney]

If she does, then she's been holding out on me.

[There's a soft clicking noise in the background.]

Yeah, you would say that, you little eight-legged sneak.

[cantgetanyworse]

Aha, what did she say?

[Sometimes, she does miss being able to understand animals.]

Nothing too crude I hope.

[fireandhoney]

She said that if she could read or write, she'd tell my enemies to get bent in huge letters. The joke's on her, because all my enemies are back in Tamriel.

[cantgetanyworse]

Oh! Well. Hm.

[A little rude.]

Maybe it's best that she can't read and write.
