DRAFT 3 [video]
[guess who's been pretty scarce. guess who's holding the comm at what looks like a bit of an odd angle - the sky's pretty clear, but it's hard to tell where he is, it looks like he's leaning against/over a railing of some sort though - and not looking at it for a few moments before glancing down with a mixed expression.]
For those of you who aren't familiar with me, my name is Robert Callaghan. I, ah, had been working on a project for a while that I hadn't told many people about, mainly because I wasn't sure it'd work and thought it was better to keep it quiet. Even so, a lot of you felt the effects of it a couple months ago. As far as I can tell, it misfired...badly, altering what people thought was their present. I want to emphasize what happened was an accident, but...[he shakes his head, grimacing a bit]...that doesn't change the fact that it still happened, and it affected too many people, did too many things. It was supposed to - years from now, when we'd had time to test it safely and were sure it'd work - save a life. Maybe a few of them, but...at this point, it's been dissembled. It's pretty clear that the risk of a repeat of what happened...
[let lets out a huff of air. that kind of speaks for itself, really, doesn't it?]
My memory about that time's still a bit fuzzy, but I remember enough that I've spent since then until now trying to...clean up certain things. Still, this is...long overdue.
[beat]
I'm sorry.
[another beat, and he looks out at - something - in the distance, before glancing back at the comm]
Like I said, I've been trying to clean up, but you can't...change the past. [his mouth twitches, as if in response to some private joke.] Still. I'm hoping most of you've recovered from it by now, but if there's some things I can help with, well...
[a few moments after that trails off? he switches off the comm, seemingly run out of things to say.]
