You've reached Dr. Stephen Strange. Leave a message and my secretary will get back to you.

[So there is someone. Maybe the timing's off, but there's someone.]

What's her name?

[thewarningafter]

Mary. Morstan? Definitely Mary, anyway.

[jumpthegun]

[Mary. Okay. Okay. That's fine. This is fine. Everything is just fine.]

Okay. Thank you, doctor.

[thewarningafter]

You're welcome.

[He should say something. What, though? He has only an inkling of what this is about.

So he'll take the coward's way out of that conversation by changing the subject to something that is, in his defense, also important.]

I spoke with one of the new arrivals yesterday -- name of Karkat, goes by the handle carcinoGeneticist, all one word, capital G. He's blood type O minus and he's willing to donate. Definitely not human, but we know that's not a problem now.

[jumpthegun]

[Oh. That's very good to know. John finds he... can't really summon the ability to care all that much. But there's Frisk and there's Kid.]

I see. Thank you for finding that out. I'll follow up with him and see about setting up a transfusion.

[There's a pause.]

Or I'll ask Claire to if she's closer to him.

[thewarningafter]

[He might not know John all that well, but it's pretty obvious when he's getting a rote response.]

Great. Yeah. Obviously.

[jumpthegun]

Goodbye, Dr. Strange. Have a pleasant evening.

[You know? As you do in Snowhell.]

[thewarningafter]

[Sigh.]

You too.
