[ There's no warning as the audio starts, and it seems very likely that River isn't actually addressing the network at large at all. It cuts in mid sentence, to the rustling sound of movement and near incoherent rambling from River. ]
-but it wasn't meant to go like this. What went wrong? Something went wrong, was it her calculations? The numbers twisted and broke and now so much is lost and how are they supposed to find out why? Pushed too hard and too fast, why did he let her try? Why did I try?
[ She stops talking very abruptly, exhales slowly, and then for the first time actually sounds like she's talking to the network, like it isn't just an accidental pick up of a private conversation featuring one. ]
She's sorry. She didn't- it wasn't meant to happen. So, so sorry.
[ Without any indication of who she's apologising to, she cuts the feed. ]

[ She has stopped though, as far into the woods as she dares to go right now. Instead of returning she just sits down at the base of a tree and rests her device in her lap. It takes a moment for her to respond again with anything other than small, stressed noises as she rubs her hands over her head and her fingers through her hair. She does speak again though, voice tense and far too strained as she tries to keep her breathing steady. ]
Just looking, that was all it was supposed to be. Just looking. She does it every day without meaning to, why did it break when she tried? Know- I know everything now. Too much, so much even he doesn't know and he can't. So much time unaccounted for.

Tell me what you mean, River. Can you do that? You know everything he knows now? That what you're sayin'?
[Can someone even help with that?]
