: Hello
: Hello Ms. Maryam
: How Are You And Your Daughters Doing?
: Everyone's doing rather well
: Thank you for asking
: You Are Very Welcome
: So how are you?
: I Am Well, Vriska And Kanaya Are Together
: Porrim Is Still
: Well
: Porrim
: *she laughs* Good to know that some things never change
: It Is
: I'm dreading the day that one of them brings home a boy
: It Is Not As Bad As
: Nevermind'
: It Is Awful
: Meulin's been talking nonstop about one of the Makara boys
: Kruloz?
: Kurloz
: Oh
: Sorry
: And I'm just waiting for her to start talking about that boy around her father
: I Don'Y Like The Makaras
: **Don'T
: She Will
: I know that she will, but isn't 15 too young to date?
: Not By My Standards
: I still don't trust Kurloz though
: He looks exactly like his father did at that age
: Neither Do I
: I heard that he's gotten himself into fights
: He Has
: I Volunteered At The School Once, He Got Into 2 Fighss That Day
: I can't exactly ban her from seeing that boy too
: Homeschool?
: I can't exactly drop my nursing career to homeschool my children
: What, with my husband taking to writing and all
: I Will
: I can't let you do that, it would be too much to ask
: No, No
: It Is Very Little Infact
: Nepeta's just made herself a crowd of friends, I can't pull her out of school
: And you know how she is
: Then I Will Only School Meulin
: Are you sure that this is the best option?
: No
: Priv8 School Worked For Aranea
: I just need to find something that Meulin is good at
: So that she can win a scholarship
: To What College?
: I was thinking a private school
: Well I Know Some People
: You Could Get Her In For Free
: What kind of people? And don't you think this is too drastic for one boy?
: Kurloz will probably be expelled within the next two or three months anyways
: Administrators And Teachers At The One Down The Street
: And Okay
: If You Don'T Want To You Dont Have Too
: I'll have to think on it
: Meulin isn't the brightest
: But She Is Very Smart When It Comes To Geometry
: One subject out of many
: She's not too bad in english either
: No, Her English Is Almost Perfect!
: I'll take you up on that offer
: Which One?
: She'll probably like the uniform or something
: I Did *She Giggles*
: They Are Purrfect For Her
: Thank you so much
: Anytime
: And Did You Know That Nepeta Has All A'S In Her Classes?!
: She does?
: Dear God, where have I been?
: Yes, I Think That She Deserves A Reward.
: I'll take her out for icecream after I pick her up from school
: Well, Meulin Isn'T Much Behind; It'S Just Her Science And Music Are Bad
: You can't exactly help music, it's more talent and skill based
: But I'll see what she's learning in Science
: True
: I Help Out In The Office On Mondays And Thursdays And Her And Vriska Both Come For Help In The Afternoons
: Even I was bad at music, well until they threw a clarinet at me
: I see
: Clarinet? I Play Piano
: Piano's a beautiful instrument
: It Is
: Maybe I Could Teach Meulin When She Catches Her Grades Up
: Hopefully
: Don'T Worry, You Are New To Mothering, I Can Help.
: Hell, Porrim Is About To Be 20
: I don't think I should have even had children
: Why?
: They Are Smart And Beautiful, Just Like You And Your Husband.
: Hell, I can operate and do complex medical procedures, but I don't understand my own two kids
: Neither Did I, Take Them To A Con And Bam!
: Do you think that would actually work?
: No, It Did On Porrim, I Took Kanaya And She Practically Died On Me.
: I can only imagine
: It Was Awful *Facepalm* Never Again
: It's good that you've learned from it though
: It Is
: You Just Need To Take A Few Off Days To Spend With Your Daughters
: I think that I've got a couple of weeks booked in the summer
: Try Spending Time With Nepeta Especially
: I will
: I'Ve Seen Her Go From Cute And Innocent To The Beast She Is Today
: She's violent?
: Yes, During Lunch She Is Always Fighting With The Makaras
: Oh my
: Yes, Meulin Is Quite Upset About It
: Another reason to take Nepeta out for ice cream
: I'll tell her to lay off on them
: *She Giggles*
: She's not going to listen though
: Why Not?
: I used to beat their father up at recess
: It may or may not be genetic
: Well, Maybe
: I'll tell her to lay off on them
: I don't want them getting hurt
: They Aren'T The Ones Getting Hurt
: Is she the one to start them?
: And they're the ones to end them?
: Yes But Have You Seen Some Bruises On Meulin Lately?
: I haven't, the hospital's got me working almost 18 hours or more daily. Wait, bruises?!
: The Makara Boy Does Push Her Around Alot And It Angers Nepeta
: Perhaps I should pay Mr. Makara a visit
: No, He Will Kill You.
: You Need To Call The Police
: I will
: Hasn't the school tried solving this?
: No, They Don'T Know About It.
: Thank you for telling me about this
: I didn't know how disconnected I was until you told me
: If You Need Anything You Can Just Ask Me
: You will definitely be my first to ask
: No worries
: *She Smiles* Do You Mind If Nepeta Spends The Night With Kanaya Today? I Have To Work Late
: Or Meulin Would Be Better
: I Would Ask Porrim But She Is Out And About Today
: You can have both if you want
: No, I Don'T Think That Kanaya Could Take That. Meulin Maybe?
: I'll see if Meulin's up for it
: I need to speak with Nepeta
: Okay Well, I'Ll Be On My Way
