[phone]

[Those cookies sure were good, maybe a little too good. Now Hiling has a tummy ache. Determined not to suffer in silence, she picks up the phone. Surely somebody would be sympathetic. She groans loudly, making sure everyone knows how she feels.]

I guess this is it. It's too late for me. I just wanted to say good bye because I know you'll all miss me. If you'd like to leave a gift or make a donation in my name, I live at 748 Partridge. Well, it was nice knowing you all...

[748 Partridge Drive]

[Hiling languishes on the couch, having decided to stay home from school today. Boxes of cookies litter the floor around her. The blanket is pulled up to her neck and her whines can be heard throughout the house. Somebody pay attention to her.]

[748 Partridge? That's right next door!]

What's wrong? I'm a healer, I can be right there!

[prideinbattle]

I don't know. I'm in a lot of pain. I guess you can try.

[sparkling_eyes]

All right. I'll be right there.

[In less than a minute, Lyon is rushing into the living room of the house next door.]

[prideinbattle]

[She rolls over when she hears her guest arrive.]

So you can really heal me?

[vedaandme]

She doesn't need healing. She ate too much.

[Tieria was in the chair opposite the couch, reading, and completely unconcerned about Hiling's plight. The evidence of what she'd done was scattered about the living room in the form of empty scout cookie boxes.]

thread order shall be Hiling>Tieria>Lyon

[prideinbattle]

[Hiling glares at Tieria and then looks back at Lyon. At least someone cares about her. She holds her stomach.]

There's no wound, but it hurts here.

[vedaandme]

[Tieria just sighed and went back to his book for now, but he was listening and paying attention all the same.]

Sorry for f'ing up the order XD

[sparkling_eyes]

You made a phone call like that for a stomachache?

[prideinbattle]

It's a really bad stomachache.

[vedaandme]

You simply have no tolerance. [Or are a spoiled brat. Both would fit in Tieria's mind.]

[sparkling_eyes]

You shouldn't be so dramatic. I thought you had a severe injury from the way you were talking.

[prideinbattle]

It's not my fault you took it the wrong way.

[vedaandme]

Lyon is right. A stomachache does not qualify as a horrible injury.

[sparkling_eyes]

Just watch what you eat from now on and get some sleep.

[prideinbattle]

So you're not going to help me?

[vedaandme]

Would there be anything she could do? Like she said, it is not an injury.

[sparkling_eyes]

That's right. There's nothing wrong with you, you just ate too much.

[prideinbattle]

You're sure that's all it is?

[vedaandme]

It could be stomach cancer.

[Tieria was not helping.]
