persephone was a giant ass monster and the cult leader was horny for it

Cracked my antennae and I think that translated to a ruptured eardrum, but I’m not sure.

How deep in line are you? Drop me a pin, I’m in decon zone 4A, I’ll come get you.

[philomathean]

No, it’s okay. They need you there.

[Ack! Jannie]
Just kidding!!! Yes, please. It hurts so bad. Rather break a leg.

[Dropped pin.]

Okay, so technically I am “strongly discouraged” from evaluating and treating close family, but I am going to flex a different kind of spousal privilege and get you to the front of the line. Do you want me to grab you painkillers first?

Ack! Jannie

[philomathean]

This is the most evil thing we’ll ever use spousal privilege for, so it’s probably fine, right?

Yeah, I think so. Or something for nausea? Both? Is that allowed? I’m just a Giant Bug, I don’t know.

It’s not evil. If you’re in pain and feeling dizzy then it’d be evil to make you wait. Most of the people in line are just confused and slightly dehydrated, whereas we need to get your ear looked at.

You can take ibuprofen with Dramamine, you should be fine. I’m just getting you a hot compress, too, give me three minutes. Any bleeding?

Okay, if you’re sure. And if people are like, “Hey lady, there’s a line!” I’ll just pretend I can’t hear them and only be half pretending, so it’s only half a lie.

Thank you, baby. I’m coughing up a little blood but nothing else really hurts so I think it’s just my ear draining down my throat.

Ack! Jannie

[...] Your eardrum definitely sounds ruptured. And right before your birthday, too.

I see you. We'll have you home in 30 minutes.
