[The feed opens to show Elmer's usual cheery self, holding that old violin he's found. He plays a few notes on it, slowly, just a pleasant little tune, before he speaks.]
I've got an idea! I think we need more to do around here to distract ourselves, don't you? Sure, there's lots of work to be done, but that doesn't mean we can't try to have some fun, too. Everyone's so down, and we could use something to help make people smile! Something fun that we can all enjoy. And I got to thinking about all the different people here, from so many different times and places, and how varied everyone's talents and skills are. So I thought, why not hold a talent competition! This way we can share all our talents with one another, and have some fun while we're at it. I can be the host! And we'll get a panel of judges, and some prizes. Maybe some trophies! Hey Monimoni, you should be a judge!
Yes, I know, I'm going to hear a lot of "But we're at war!" or "We have so much rebuilding to do!" We can still do both. I was thinking we can hold the competition in a month or two, to give people plenty of time to prepare, and in case anything else happens. Like a UE attack or time travel or whatever else in the world can happen. We can all work hard, find time to practice, and find a way to spread smiles to one another. Happy people make for better workers, after all. What do you all think?

What a lovely thought!

I'm glad you agree! Would you be interested in performing?

[She thinks for a bit.]
I've been an announcer before! Do you need an announcer?

[She's stunned and so excited... even if she'll probably get distracted easily and not be the best co-host...]

She gives him a playful smirk and starts speaking in her best announcer voice.] A wonderful day for talking! This young man seems to be an expert, although I do think it must be cheating to have such a nice smile. Luna Lovegood competes for a chance to be the co-host, though I'm afraid she might be failing.

A friend of yours? That must have been nice.
