[His caller ID would show an unfamiliar number, as it's the hospital phone. Machine beeping can be heard in the background, and she sounds rambling-exhausted and worried and not quite coherent, but determined. The message is left post-forum conversation with Rick, but before Rick shows up to save Rosalie from certain Vaughn-inflicted doom.]Sugar, you better not be out gettin' yourself into trouble. You listen to me, and you listen good. You keep your eyes peeled for Vaughn, and you keep an eye on Daniel for me. I mean it, Shane. Get Vlad to help, but keep the man clear of Vaughn. Sit in R1 with a gun, if you gotta.
I'm gonna take care of Rose, but you gotta watch out for the Family too. The Family and Vaughn. And I swear to God, if anythin' happens to you or Daniel over this, I'm gonna skin both your hides. If anyone asks, you don't know anythin' about anythin, and you ain't talked to me even once.
Oh, make sure Nicky's okay for me too. I ain't been near the internet but once, and Evie was lookin' for him, and he's worse than you for takin' care of himself.
