[Jenna is smiling but it is fairly clear that she feels a touch awkward using this thing's video function. It was nice that someone had explained it to her, but she still didn't get how it worked. As long as it got the job done, though...]
Hi, everyone! My name is Jenna. A lot of you probably don't know me, since I only arrived here earlier this month.
This is probably really bad timing with everything that's going on, but I wanted to ask for some help. I don't know how the months from my world carry over here, but based on the seasons, I think my friend's birthday is in a month or two, and I wanted to do something nice for her. I'm a terrible cook, though, [A twinge of annoyance is fairly clear to see on her face,] so I was wondering if it might be possible for someone to give me some quick cooking lessons so I can actually make something for her on her birthday.
I'm not asking you to do this for free! We can work something out if you want payment of some kind. I'm a warrior, so I can provide protection if you're a good cook but you're not one of the people with powers here. I'm also pretty good at hunting, so I can get you some actual food instead of that nutrition bar crap. And we used to make our own clothes where I came from, so I can sew too! That kind of thing. There's more I can do too, if none of that sounds good to you.
[She smiles brightly into the camera.] Thanks a lot in advance!

I've heard there's a few places you can put things where they won't get taken, but I'm not sure if food keeps there or not. Hopefully someone else will know for sure. Still, whatever the menu ends up being will stay that way for the whole month. And the guy in charge I think is one of the... [A beat. She's not sure how to phrase this.] ... less crazy ones? I think? I can't really say I know that much about him.

[Less crazy doesn't sound promising. But so long as he isn't murderous, Jenna will be happy.]
How bad could he be? [There is a light pause before she makes a face.] Actually, don't answer that.
Still video - Also sorry for agonizingly slow!
[There's a brief pause, her smile dimming for an instant.] I won't answer that then. Er, do you have any idea if your friends birthday is in one month or two...?
