Molly!

Please tell me you didn't eat it!

...Oops.

Did you go to the hospital yet or did you just remember? How long ago did you eat it?

...Just now.

Moollly. *sighs* You use an Epi-pen or anything?

What's that?

Some people who are allergic to things carry them so if they accidentally run into their allergy, they can try and stop the effects immediately so they can go to the hospital.

Speaking of hospital, come on, let's go and get you checked out, okay?

[nods, kind of sweating by now D:]

Awesome. Thank you.

You're welcome. *ushers her to the car, deeming it best to get there very quickly*

I'll even let ya play with the lights and sirens - how's that sound?

I like lights... [wheezes out, trying v. hard to breathe]

Okay. Click it on. *gets into the car, already speeding off in the direction of the hospital* Almost there, okay?

How can you forget something like that?

I was hungry!

Oh, sure, that explains it. I am hungry all the time! I just happen to place allergic shocks a little higher on my personal hell scale! ... You're not going to swell up on me or something, are you? Because, don't. Tell me you have an epi-pen.

Epi-pen?

You have got to be kidding me. How can you be allergic and not carry one? Unless you don't swell up, which would be quite fortunate. For both of us. And your health insurance. *goes through his pockets and holds up one* Still, this. This is for treating anaphylactic shocks. Don't they teach you anything at school?

I don't go to school, but thanks. [makes grabby hands for said epi-pen, she's sort of sweating by now]

That explains a lot. *grumbles but hands her the pen* A doctor would be good. A medical doctor, I mean. Right. Calling an ambulance.

I think I need to sit down.

Oh just, just great... *gets really nervous now, dialing 911 and calling an ambulance* Yes. Yes, you do that, sit. And use the pen, for God's sake! And try not to die?

Molly!

...Do you have an epi-pen?

...No.

Do you need one? My dad has a bunch.

That's not good, Molly. C'mon, we need to get you to the hospital.
