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 frowns. Either the worry is making her incredibly stupid or incredibly brave, because after a glance at Kai she makes her way over to Axel. She's trying to keep her voice low and gentle, but strong enough that she might pay attention to what she has to say. She's serious.]

Axel?

[captive_destiny]

[Riku's looking up from where he's kneeling by the bed, staying quit. This other Riku looks worried, and that can't be good, right?]

[smolderingf1re]

[why do you guys think I incinerated pillows. :| I'm not going to set any of YOU on fire, jeez. give me a little credit, will you? attempts to unclench everything and lifts her sweaty face from the pillow, which has a hole in it where she was biting. she's not even going to attempt speaking unless she has to, but the questioning look should be enough for Riku.]

[regalheart]

[he's staying quiet as well, though he sends the younger ku a reassuring smile. we're all worried, but that's normal for this, most likely. hopefully.]

[dawningcoast]

Hey.

[She smiles, briefly again, more reassuring than anything else because of what she's about to say. And hey, you can't blame her about the fire thing. Red might or might not have been a part of the blazing bed during Aden's birth.]

If you'll let me, I want to check how dilated you are.

[captive_destiny]

[he may have glanced over some of the pictures in that book, but that word is a little over his head and it probably shows. Kai's smiling though, so it can't be all that bad, right?]

[smolderingf1re]

[it uh. goes over Axel's head a tiny bit too, but it's not too hard to figure out that baby coming + Riku wanting to check something + the word "dilated" = Riku putting her hand somewhere uncomfortable. but if it'll help the baby come faster. ._.]

Y-yeah, okay. I guess I n-need to try and relax, huh.

[--grits her teeth for another wave of pain. move it or lose it when it's over, Riku.]

[regalheart]

[oh my god my best friend/sister is going to stick her hand up my husband's vagina. what is this even.]

[dawningcoast]

Mm. Try to focus on relaxing your face and not tightening it up.

[Instead of lower areas that are less likely to go along with this 'relaxing' so willingly and will probably just leave you frustrated. Focus focus focus. Kai and the younger Riku are getting glances as she moves to put on one of those latex gloves.]

[captive_destiny]

[when Riku sees her going for one those he's going to swiftly turn to face the opposite direction, though for other reasons than what the other Riku or even Kai might realize. his eyes are a little wider than usual, and he's focusing right on Axel's face and trying not to remember Xigbar's version of an examination. is that what's going to happen to Axel?]

[smolderingf1re]

[ohgod I'm going to die. reaches out and grabs Kai's sleeve, pulling him closer so she can wrap her arms around his waist and press her face against his hip, taking a deep breath to try and relax. you have to help me, husbandu. ;o; ]

[regalheart]

[he will do the best he can, letting his Light wash over her to hopefully help her relax as he runs his fingers through her hair.]

[dawningcoast]

[Stop that, you are not dying. Once she's got the glove on, Riku's moving back over and move the sheets around. She's just straightening it out, folding it up once or twice; it won't go past Axel's knees, don't worry. She can feel her way up. ...though she's kind of hesitating now, of course.]

Relax.

[captive_destiny]

[she probably didn't mean him, but he's taking a steadying breath all the same. and still not looking. there is something nagging him, though.]

A-aren't you even going to use lube?

[smolderingf1re]

[freezes when she hears that question, and then starts shaking with laughter, muffling the initial snort against Kai's hip. this might be followed by hysterical tears, but whatever. go Riku go, while she's moderately relaxed-- ]

[regalheart]

[tries not to laugh as well, smiling faintly in Riku's direction.]

Axel's got girl bits at the moment, Riku. It's not quite as necessary... though it might help. Up to you two.

[last bit was directed at olderku and Axel, of course.]

[dawningcoast]

[That's a pretty epic facepalm, Riku! She's using her non-gloved hand for that, too, for safety reasons. She's so glad Axel finds it funny.]

Hand it over. I'd like to make this as easy as possible.

[captive_destiny]

[...his face is flushing with embarrassment, finally starting to put things together. he almost reaches for his coat pocket, before remembering he was trying to wear normal clothes more often for younger!Kai and Kira]

[smolderingf1re]

[reaches past Kai to the nightstand and grabs the bottle of lube that's sitting right out there in the open, how scandalous. she twists and holds it out for olderku to take, looking a little more relaxed and calm-- no, nevermind, there's the pain back. ends up dropping the bottle in her reflexive curl, and the hand still at Kai's hip is probably going to leave a bruise.]

[regalheart]

[he will suffer in silence, because this is definitely not as bad as what Axel's going through.]

[dawningcoast]

[If she could do anything to help with the pain, she really would. She's catching the bottle quickly after it's dropped, though she's hesitant to do anything with Axel tensed like that.]

Axel...?

[captive_destiny]

[quickly offers another pillow!]

[smolderingf1re]

N-nothing, go on. It's just pretty close to ready to come out, it feels like, but go ahead and check.

[her voice is wobbly, from the pain and impending weirdness, but she looks pretty determined to BE OKAY WITH IT ALL, and she's making a serious effort to be relaxed. takes the pillow from Slaveku, too, giving him a little smile and tucking it against her back.]

[regalheart]

[just. pets Axel's hair softly. he's going to be fretting until that babby is actually out, dammit.]

[dawningcoast]

[Riku's really hesitant, but if Axel's sure about it, then okay. She's coating her fingers in more lubricant than is probably necessary, and then leaning on the bed with her other hand so she can slip the gloved one under the sheet and oh god she has to pause because she never thought she'd be doing this ever, but here she goes easing a finger inside. Just one for now, if someone wants to perform a mercy kill before she has to resort to two.]
