how is babby formed

[smolderingf1re]

[this pregnant female Axel is reclining on a couch in the common area closest to the family hall, dozing a little with an arm draped over the bulge of her stomach. she jerks awake, though, when there's a sudden spasm that kind of hurts. she's dozed off again, fifteen minutes later, when it happens again, and she sits up a little, looking alarmed.]

Kai!

[Riku resists the urge to roll her eyes, and smiles at Axel in a way that should be reassuring. Silly boys and your panicking-- and girl. Oh dear.]

No one is exploding. Axel, get on the bed.

[smolderingf1re]

[aaaaaaaaaaa people. also what, it is an honest psychological issue. my male brain is highly confused right now.

waddles into the bedroom and over to the bed, settling gingerly on it just in time for another contraction, which makes her wince and sit back up a little.]

[well Kira starts to spazz more once she gets a hint of what's going on]

Oh! Oh, Uncle Axel! Are you gonna have a baby now?! NOW? What should I do I don't know what to do Mama never taught me about this!

[maverick-blades.livejournal.com]

Kira, why don't you go away. You won't be helpful. You'll just flail and make everyone more nervous. Or at least go get some towels.

kai -> riku -> axel -> kira -> rikka?

[regalheart]

Rikka, don't be mean about it. Kira, he's right about the last part, you can go get collect things for us. You're both getting kicked out soon anyway, no arguments about it.

[this is my serious face, u gaiz.]

\o/

[dawningcoast]

[Having something Kai can take control of is probably helping, huh? She'll be backing him up on that one, though right now she's just helping Axel over and hoping she doesn't end up with her own hand broken.]

[smolderingf1re]

[is fine for now, gosh. lays down and squirms to get comfortable, finally shifting onto her side, making sure there are still towels under her.]

*gets Daddy to stop menacing Marly so Kira can spazz*

[daddyhasagun.livejournal.com]

I... I can get towels then. And I'll babysit Aden.

[:/ she's not sure she wants to be around this kind of grossness anyway]

[maverick-blades.livejournal.com]

I can babysit Apricot.

*He is happily petting Apricot behind his ears :3 He does so love fuzzy things with ears. He completely forgot what he was going to ask you, Uncle Kai.*

[regalheart]

Alright, I think that works.

[yes, this is helping, and Riku being there is helping him calm down as well.]

[dawningcoast]

You might want to fill Red in on what's going on while you do that.

[All smiles! If one of them didn't mind, she'd appreciate it. Though jeez, Aden's way more gross than this.]

[smolderingf1re]

[is feeling a little headachey and nervous and stressed out, curling up a little.]

At least Ri hasn't caught wind of this yet. Hopefully he WON'T, I don't need his shrieking and flailing.

[daddyhasagun.livejournal.com]

Okay, Auntie Piku-pie.

[she scampers off then returns quickly, hauling like, a mountain of towels in a basket]

Is this enough?

[maverick-blades.livejournal.com]

*Rikka has sat down on the floor and Apricot that Fat Bun is squishing him.*

Speaking of Dad, I saw him in the hall. He's either going to ride a chocobo or kill someone. I ran before he found me.

[regalheart]

...that's more than enough, Kira. Thank you very much.

[he snorts a bit at the mention of Ri either chocobo-riding or killing something.]

Right, I think he's organizing a camping trip or something. But as much as he's supported us, having him here is possibly not the best idea. We don't need him yelling about the baby falling out if Axel sits up or something.

[dawningcoast]

He put a pillow under me when I stood up.

[What? He did. But she says this affectionately, because she appreciated having him there. Axel, however... probably not. Speaking of, Riku's gently pressing the back of her hand to the side of Axel's head. Most of her attention is on the pregnant lady, sorry. She's watching for any subtle changes.]

[smolderingf1re]

I might have to kill him a little if he shows up.

[has another contraction, making a quiet pained noise and tensing up, and trying to remember to breathe. her body temperature's pretty low, compared to usual (which makes it only a little lower than a regular person's), since her body's focusing its energy elsewhere right now.]

[daddyhasagun.livejournal.com]

You shouldn't be so mean to Daddy! He's just... not good in this kind of situation.

[she's... wringing a towel in her hands]

Kai->Riku->Axel->Kira

[maverick-blades.livejournal.com]

Tch.

*He pets Apricot again, and stands up.*

Well, since you're going to kick me out on my ass in a minute anyways, I'm gonna go feed this guy. I doubt I'd be much help with all of this baby stuff.

*He gives Kira an affectionate head rub before offering a wave and making his exit, looking back to see if Apricot is following.*

<3

[regalheart]

Alright. Come by later?

[of course Apricot is following; Rikka mentioned food!]

[dawningcoast]

[Riku's beginning to think 'later' won't be too long from now. She's a little alarmed by how quickly the contractions appear to be coming, though the 'low' temperature isn't too worrying...]

[smolderingf1re]

[it's not that quickly, not based on what this mun has open for reference. it's when the contractions start getting longer that it won't be too long. if Riku's alarmed NOW, though, how will she feel when Axel's chakra level suddenly dips drastically and then surges back up too strong a moment later, making the closest lightbulb blow. somewhere in the middle of that she goes limp in a faint, though she's already lying down, fortunately.]

[daddyhasagun.livejournal.com]

[this makes Kira really start to flail, the towel in her hands flapping around]

I don't think that's normal! I should go now do you think I should go what happened to Uncle Axel?!

[regalheart]

Just- just go, Kira!

[how do you think he's feeling about this right now? he has no idea what to do, and is trying very hard not to panic in front of Kira.]

[dawningcoast]

Kira, go watch Aden for me.

[Fortunately for you guys, Riku does exceptionally well under stress... And she knows showing that she's freaked out will only make things worse. Oh, and she is quite freaked, but as she's talking she's also checking Axel's vital signs, among other things. Man, all that heavy research she did on birth was about being in the pregnant one's shoes. You think she's ever done more than assist on this side?]
