[Lio had never really used the video feature on his phone before, but he figured this was probably the best way to showcase his, uh, problem.

So he was laying down, with his phone pointed down at his face, and he looked absolutely miserable. His face was bright red, dark circles under his eyes, and his hair was stuck to his forehead with sweat. Anyone could tell just by looking at him that he had a nasty looking fever.]

Hey. [He swallowed, his mouth dry and his voice all nasally.] Something's wrong. I'm somehow burning hot and freezing cold at the same time, and I can't breath through my nose. I thought I was just tired this morning but it's getting worse. I think I might be dying.

[Of course, in actuality, Lio Fotia had gotten sick for the first time since childhood, and he didn't know what was going on. Galo was out at the moment, otherwise he wouldn't have bothered with a network post and would have just grabbed him, but being slightly delirious, this was his next best idea.]

I mean... you were the one that called me a baby.

[Lio was smiling though, obviously not actually taking any offense despite still being kind of embarrassed about all this. Will he ever make a not-embarrassing post on the network? Probably not.]

Thanks, though. For the advice and for treating me like, a normal person.

[ That's because she likes teasing and calling names. ]

To be fair, you're supposed to go take a nap as part of your treatment. Doctor Emerald says so.

[ She has absolutely zero medical training. Not that anyone here would care, they have no way of proving she doesn't. ]

[Sigh.]

You know, I've never had a good experience with a doctor before.

[But he was leaning back into all his pillows anyway.]

Alright, I'll take a nap before Galo gets back. I'll talk to you later, Emerald.

[unhappy]

Sleep tight.

[ She waves and then hangs up. ]
