Tokiomi’s apartment

 

3 DROSSEL

I am so stressed, dude.

 

4 SIGYN

I can see that. Well, if the kid’s biomom’s agreeing to this, then you’re doing the right thing.

 

5 EVRYN

OHHH! So Conny herself doesn't have a defective fuhtoosis, but Conny's friend has a defective fuhtoosis! Okay. So yeah, Drossel's mum definitely wasn't upset about him being a dick about the baby he's gonna adopt. She was probably upset that he's not really responsible enough to have a child in any capacity.

 

6 MARIE

And he keeps hitting her up for money she may not have.

 

7 SIGYN

I have a similar arrangement with a friend of mine in case I get pregnant.

 

8 EVRYN

What, asking her for a LOOOOAAAAAANNN?

 

9 SIGYN

Ours is a bit different, though--

 

10 EVRYN

Oh, thank the gods.

 

11 SIGYN

As a follower of the Norse pantheon, I would rather not thank the gods.

 

12 ILLYBRIUS

Um, you’re welcome anyway.

 

13 SIGYN

a)   Gynnyway.  I’d still be the child’s mother and it would grow up knowing it was growing up with its godparent until its mother could afford to take it with her, and even then, we’d all still basically be family.

b)   Sorry, I mean, I support your position.

 

14 EVRYN

Even the LOOOOAAAANNNN part?

 

15 SIGYN

… No.

 

16 DROSSEL

a)   That’s what we have with Hanna.

b)   We agreed that we would have Emmit, but when the time comes, if she is ready for him and can prove she’s ready, we will let her have him.

 

17 EPIPHANY

[I know the adoption system in this country is fucked, but you're a stooge whose main source of income seems to be scamming people out of their money. Do you really think you can care for a child with a disability?]

[Oh, right, you probably think that's a great pretense for which to swindle money out of people, if indeed, this child exists at all.]

 

18 DROSSEL

She lives with him, just, he’s an accident child in her eyes.

 

19 DREPANON

You know what, that is BULLSHIT. I have an accident child too and you don't see me swindling money out of people to take care of it.

 

20 EVRYN

Not helping your case. Like, at all.

 

21 DREPANON

Of course, it doesn't hurt that he went off to trade school when he was sixteen…

 

22 EVRYN

DUDE. Do you want people to actually like you?

 

23 DREPANON

I am unconcerned with such things. Anyway, my son was eating us out of house and home, and you didn't see me resulting to these banal tactics.

 

24 DROSSEL

Just wish people understood what I’m saying like you do.

 

25 DREPANON

No, you really don't.

 

26 EVRYN

Oi, Falcon, would you mind getting yer 'and out of his arse for a line or two?

 

27 SUDDENLY, FALCON!

Hmm, I've thought about it and, nope! Not gonna do that.

 

28 MARIE

*cackles*

 

29 DROSSEL

I have a stupid-ass question.

 

30 MARIE

Are you going to still ask it? Which I realise is a stupid question in and of itself.
