"Hospital, how may I help you?"
"Uh, I'm calling about my friend, to see how she is doing."
"And what is your friend's name?"
"MK_inwa."
"Excuse me, could you spell that please?"
"MK_inwa."
"Her last name please?"
"Uh, I dunno, exactly, kinda forgot to ask."
"So, you are not family?"
"No, I am family."
"But you don't know her last name? What is
your name, please?"
"Skatr."
"What?"
"Oh, sorry, ONE Skatr! Yeah, that's it."
"And what is your friend's last name?"
"I dunno."
"And you say you are family?"
"Yes, oh MOST CERTAINLY, QUITE SO!"
"But you don't know her last name?"
"That would be correct."
"Well, how do you know her?"
"Molly."
"Molly who?"
"Molly the Owl."
"Who?"
"No, hoooo. But, not really, it's more like
DEET! DEET! DEET! Yeah, that's it. DEET."
"Who are you?"
"A MOD."
"Excuse me?"
"A MOD. That's how I know MK, she's one, too."
"This MK is a MOD?"
"Yes, ma'am. We ALL ARE."
"Who is?"
"Who is what?"
"No, we're all MODS. That's how we are family.
May I please speak to her now?"
"This Molly, may I have her last name?"
"Uh, mebbe Royal."
"Molly Royal?"
"Well, I don't know exactly."
"Is this Molly Royal part of your family?"
"Yes, through McGee."
"And who exactly is McGee?"
"Her husband, oh...well, they bond. I don't
know what they call it. He jumps her and used
to bring her a rabbit afterward - I can't watch it."
"And how do you all know our patient if you don't
even know her last name?"
"Through the owl box."
"The what?"
"Molly's owl box, ma'am, and the Stream, even though
we're kinda the black sheep. Nevah figured out why, either.
Not fair, really."
"Does this Molly know MK's last name?"
"Quite unlikely. Seriously, how many owls know all
us MODS' last names, I mean, with McGee jumpin'
all over her and NOT bringin' her a rabbit afterwards,
I seriously doubt there's gonna be a fourth clutch --"
CLICK.
"Ma'am? Miss? May I speak to MK_fromWA?"
SILENCE.
"BLOODY HORK! CAN'T NEVAH 'SPLAIN MOD TO NOMODY
NO MORE."
