[OUTSIDE BONES... She is not disturbed by the sight, at least. Though, she definitely grimaces when Endorsi speaks up.]

Hey... I'm glad to hear your voice again. [Whew.] Do you want to try texting me, though? I can't tell if that would be easier or harder for you.

[Since. Bone fingies.]

[fisherwoman]

...I'll only get a few messages if I do.

[So this is fine, even if it's a little difficult to speak.]

[toesies]

... Alright. But, seriously, no pushing yourself on my account.

[Because she imagines this cannot be pleasant. Yikes!]

Sooo... Stupid question, how are you feeling?

[fisherwoman]

[dryly:]

I feel great. Can't imagine why you're asking.

[toesies]

[... She snorts.]

Fair enough. Do you want to talk about it, or do you want a distraction? Because either way I can help.

[fisherwoman]

I'd rather not think about it ever again, honestly!

[so, distraction.]

[toesies]

[Extremely valid.]

Pick a subject. Any subject! We'll talk about it instead.

[fisherwoman]

[Hm, hm...]

What's the first thing you're going to do when you go home?

[toesies]

[A beat.]

Are you sure you want the answer to that question?

[fisherwoman]

What...?

[that absolutely went over her head.]

Why, is it something bad?

[toesies]

Not bad. But I wouldn't include it in the Christmas newsletter, that's for sure.

[fisherwoman]

Christmas...?

[why does sheila keep having to explain these things to her]

[toesies]

[She opens her mouth.

Closes it.

Frowns.]

... Yeah, it makes sense you don't have Christmas. Let's just call it an end of the year newsletter.

[fisherwoman]

Now I'm curious, though...

[toesies]

[A beat.]

We'll get you a book from the library.
