[ What triggered this video? Well, Seth Teufel, local dollmaker, is doing his best to repair some sick dolls after the earthquake. And that's where he is, in the back room of his shop doing just that. He has classical music playing in the background. ]

Ah, Miss Crystabelle, you need some new hands, don't you? Well, that won't do, we'll get you fixed up right away! Let's see...

[ And now Seth is talking to a doll, good-naturedly. He's trying to find new hands to match the busted ones on the doll he's calling Crystabelle, humming to himself along with the music. ]

Ah, how about these? They'll look lovely on you, and maybe you'll find someone who wants to take you home.

[ He's going to go quiet as he meticulously switches out the hands on the doll, since this one is ball-jointed. ]

There you go. Feeling better? That's good, that's good! Ahaha~ Now, what about... Ah, right, Sir Reginald. You need a new head, but the rest of you is fine... That'll mean some painting, hm... You know what? Let's make you better than ever.

[ ...He doesn't realize people can respond to this, he thinks he's totally just recording this for his channel on doll care online. ]

[When the video comes up, the activities of doll repair captivate one of the Network members almost instantly. These sorts of videos are the kind she follows as a subscriber to pick up techniques, information on various crafts, and preferences for materials. She might have simply continued to watch were it not for Walter speaking up. However, hearing her friend Walter address the new addition to the Numbered population of Mossgate, she chimes in to offer her assistance in the way so many others had when she first opened a connection.

As such, Seth is greeted by a chipper young girl.]

Your dolls are so pretty! I think this is a nice way to introduce yourself on the Network.

[ Ah. This is. Awkward. ]

I didn't mean to... A-Ah... This is so awkward.

[There comes the sound of a stiffled giggle before an empathetic tone follows.]

Please don’t feel embarrassed. I used my mum’s phone the first time I put my number anywhere. We were surprised when we heard voices instead of ringing or a recorded message.

I suppose there is that... Still, this is a lot to take in.

[ A whole lot. ]

[The child pauses for a moment to consider, then reaches for a pencil and starts to draw on the page. Seth will be able to watch as the lines start to appear on his monitor while she speaks. The lines come together to draw a cute kitty.]

It is a lot...but everyone I’ve talked to and listened to on here has been so nice. So we’ll help you too. My family helps me a lot.
