Get up...get up, you stupid piece of... What did you do that for? What's wrong with you? Didn't you hear a word he said? All of you! You think there's someone just going to drop money on you?! Money they could use?! Well, there ain't people like that. There's just people like me.

Glad you got checked out, Anne. I woke up this morning all worried about you.

My dad has pressure adjusting problems, his doc seems to have found ways to treat them. Hope you manage as well. Keeling over from standing up is no good.

Yay, Seska.

Boo, concussion. But at least you know now.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"

Anne, I hope the concussion improves quickly. Is there anything they can do about the low blood pressure?

I thought that was just to keep the head attached to the body.

She had a concussion (which I hope she recovers from soon), she didn't lose her head entirely.

Congrats on the future FIL getting with the program, Seska.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I was advised to start taking salt tablets to bring my pressure up.

My dad adds some kind of electrolyte powder to his drinking water. I think he was told to add more salt to his food, also.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Ok, so I'm examining the bill from my visit to the doctor a few weeks ago. It turns out that presenting with a cough and a fever, causing the doctor to use the finger oxygen sensor thingy and resulting in orders for an antibiotic and another day off work is a complex enough case as to be coded "moderate complexity", so I get to pay $35 more than those times the NP ordered double strep tests.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Yes, but only if they're black velvet ribbons, not to be removed on your wedding night.
