OOC: Oops! My bad. Can you roll with it or do you need a retcon?
OOC: I'll roll with it. :)
It seemed strange to Tessa that the response from her mother would be so quick, no matter what the circumstances, but it seemed like her voice, so she took it seriously. "OK, mom, mom? Listen to me. Call the ambulance. You're at home? I'm on my way.
Get on the phone with the ambulance!"
Tessa would go, but she still wanted to
try to be careful. She didn't get this
Wizard's weave stuff, so she wasn't sure what about it would bring hellfire down on her head. If there really was a wizard—or worse, wizards—waiting for her, it could get ugly.
So she got to her car and she drove just a bit slow. While driving, she texted back Twiddle:
What does he want with me? I've got family business right now
Then Lilith:
No cousin named Aaron. Don't trust this person. I'll be by soon. Family business right now.
She would stop a ways away from her parents' place, when she got there, and keep an eye out for anyone she didn't recognize keeping an eye on the situation. She wanted to be there for her dad, but it wouldn't be worth giving herself over to the Hegemony.
Her dad was stubborn—grew up someplace else that he didn't like to talk about very much. Tessa had caught on that out there, accessible medical care was a bit scarce. And hospitals were for
serious medical emergencies. Tessa didn't know what would qualify as a serious medical emergency for her dad, but she thought any heart attack that left him conscious wouldn't qualify as serious enough.
She didn't think he'd ever actually been to a hospital, honestly.
