[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.]

Now.

If you truly feel sick, it would be more productive for you to get rest instead of expending energy talking over the phone.

Right. I'll get Tieria and the Doctor to take care of me. Did you hear? He's my new dad.

[sturmbahnfuhrer]

Is he? How wonderful!

It will certainly make things easy as we march ever further.

[prideinbattle]

It's pretty nice. I've never had parents before, so it's been interesting too.

[sturmbahnfuhrer]

I see! That is life, though! You're young, so it's important you have as many new, and unique, experiences as you can!

What is the other parent like? Will they be a problem?

[prideinbattle]

The other one's a drone. So she can be annoying, but not really a problem.
