*gets a bit huffy because now he feels all sorts of jealous*

Well, I'm sorry I'm not older and cooler than the Ri you're used to.

*smiles tenderly*

No, you're just as cool, just in a different way. Don't... grow up too fast, Ri.

*you'll have enough to contend with in the near future*

I love Ri so dearly. And so I can't help but love his younger self just as much.

*and he goes pink in the face again when you say that*

Yeah? You really do still feel that way bout me? I mean, the older me?

*softly*

Even moreso than I did when I was younger. You... mean the world to me. We're all a family now, and nothing can break us apart.

*he likes the thought of family*

Of course we are! I'm gonna be Rikka's uncle, right? Hey, I bet that would make Namine an aunt. And Princess, too.

*he chews his lip for a second*

Yeah, there are lots of Uncles and Aunts. But since you live with us, Riku calls you 'Daddy'. He's going to be 'Papa'. And I'm of course, 'Mama'.

*frowns a bit*

That's weird. Isn't Riku the father of your baby?

*laughs*

Yep, but you joke about giving me one all the time, too.

*frowns more, looking away*

But I can't.

*raises your chin and gives you a chaste kiss*

You don't know that for sure until you try, Ri.

*twitches a little*

It's okay, Sora. I'm alright with not having kids of my own. I know what Vexen did to me. And Namine doesn't want kids anyway.

*okay, and he'll show you how much he's learned in the future about you*

Yeah, well my Ri doesn't give up before he even tries. And you won't either. You're going to become a lot stronger when you get older. Okay? You need to trust me on this.

*he's still frowning and looking a bit sad, because he doesn't see the point in talking about this particular subject*

Then the future-me must be lying to you real good. He has to know that he's infertile.

*okay, well he's going to give you hugs, his rounded belly pressed against your own*

I'd love you no matter what. But I still say you never know.

*changes the subject*

He's started kicking again... !

*flails a bit when he feels fluttery kick*

I FELT THAT! Can I-- can I touch?!

*raises up his shirt and traces your hand up from his navel to rest on the highest swell and keeping it firmly planted there*

Feel him? You... you can even talk to him, and he'll move around. He can't see or understand you, but you and Riku sound so similar that he responds to both of you when you talk to him. Say hi.

*looks a bit nervous and leans down towards your belly*

HI RIKKA. CAN YOU HEAR ME?

*there's a little movement towards your voice!*

See? *excited!*

*is excited too, amazed by the feeling*

CAN YOU REALLY HEAR ME, RIKKA? MY NAME IS RI.

*grins, relaxing under your touch*

He hears you... oh! Feel that? That's a foot~

*would be flailing from excitement but doesn't move his hand*

How do you know which part it is? It's so small!!

*smiles and puts his hand over yours*

Well, I guess it's a foot... it could be an arm... He likes to move around when I'm trying to rest. Or... well, after I've had sex. I guess it wakes him up. *turns pink and laughs a little* Good thing he doesn't know what's going on.

*he totally only heard one part of that sentence*

HE KNOWS WHEN YOU HAVE SEX?!

Well, no, he doesn't know what sex is! He just knows that something is making Mama move a lot and it makes him irritated. Aerith says it's the contractions that I have when I come, because they're similar to the ones during labor.

*is mentally flailing because OMG THE BABY KNOWS WHEN YOU HAVE SEX AND IT MAKES HIM ANGRY*
