Welcome to Gaia! ::

Tsume for the most part didn't worry about Sheridan. He kept a shadow within her shadow and if any tried to harm her, the shadow would act as a guard dog and attack. He was reading the latest addition of the dictionary trying to brush up on the modern language considering how he would sometimes, in a fit of anger, revert back to his Latin tongue. His ears perked as he listened the door open and clothes and the familiar scent that Sheridan had. He waited for her, his eye scanning the book. Over the years, he shared little things with her about his past but even then, he was a quiet man and didn't say much so he wouldn't damage her poor mind. He looked up from his book as he watched her sit down and that nervous feeling she had swept over him as he waited. He looked at her not the least bit surprised. "I thought so", he said closing the book. "It's good to hear." He smiled lightly as he put his hand to her smooth stomach. "A child..."

Tsume bent down and kissed her stomach smiling all the way. It had been awhile since he had a child with anyone. "Yes. I am happy", he said rubbing her soft flesh. "When a woman bares me a child, I'm filled with joy. What more could a man be happier about than see his seed be passed onto another generation?" He sat up and looked at her. "I guess that means a baby room." He chuckled.

Tsume smiled lightly as he listened to her. The hugs and soft kisses put him at ease but before he could even say anything he stood up, found a shirt, slipped it on and went to the bathroom to find her. He stood at the door for a bit before going in and wrapping his arms around her waist, his hand feeling the small bump in her belly. "I'll take you to a specialist. Demon babies are a bit different from normal ones. Hopefully this one won't be as strong as I", he said running his hand gently over her stomach. Over the years, he had gotten use to not clawing people and it became second nature not to scratch anyone.

Tsume smiled lightly, his eye dimmed as he ran his sharp nails through her hair. He knew she would have trouble with the growth of the child and even a demon child was a hard one. He had taken on human females and they have given him children and a good hand full had died in the birthing process. He knew with all the medical advances of today, she would be fine. Tsume let her go and watched her walk to the kitchen. He kept his eye on her, thinking of what might be. He got up and went to his room and grabbed a old black book. He looked through it and found a number.
He dialed the number and waited for someone to pick up. "Doc? It's me Tsume", he said before pulling the phone away from his ear. The yells and loud chatter made him cringe. "You know my hearing is sensitive. Calm down. Yes yes I know it's been a long time. I know. No I'm not injured. What? NO! It's not that either. I'm calling to make an appointment with you. Huh? Yes yes. It's a human. How far along? A little over three months. She's showing. No, no pains. I think I still have that book but it's been awhile since I've had a child with a human. I know. Yeah, so long as you can check on her. Come over? I think that would be best. Tomorrow's fine. Thank you. Alright, bye." He clicked the phone off and wiggled his ear. "Damn it. Never learns to quiet down." He put the phone back in his breast pocket and let out a quiet sigh. He looked up at the T.V. and just stared before turning it on to listen to the news. He would have taken up reading a newspaper but even that was starting to die out. "Stupid kids." He grumbled as he listened to another murder on the news. He rubbed his hidden eye like he always did when watching murder cases. He chuckled at a missing person's. He knew things human could never know. He could find them and he could put his 'special' abilities to help the humans but he didn't fine it right to also butt his nose into the stream of time. He did too many times and was judged accordingly. He rubbed at his stiff shoulder. The pain never left him, not when he would get massages from Sheridan or soak in warm water.
He sighed as he watched the T.V.. His only visible eye twitched looking at the digital image. "We have something similar to this in Hell before Humans figured out how to send wave lengths through the air through a mess of wires and technical computers. The Atlantians knew more about this thousands of years before humans. Too bad they were wiped out..." He was use to telling her these small secrets humans only wished to know. "Maybe sometime I'll take you there. They are nice people, just don't insult them." he chuckled. "I don't think they've seen a human in years..." He leaned further into the chair. "I haven't been there in a couple hundred years. I water how Tali'ta is doing."

Tsume smiled lightly when she sat in his lap. He had been busy with the job he had taken up to send enough time with her but over the years, he took over the small business and expanded it. It was something he was use to and it was easy enough. It was a simple toy company which he kept with that homey look but there were 15 more over the country. He watched her leave and come back and sit. "It's an old injury that doesn't want to heal", he said rubbing again at his shoulder. Tsume looked at the food that he had cooked about a few days ago. He had to cook smaller meals for her seeing how none lived with them and he couldn't eat. "Dr.Zerick is an old friend. He's some weird mixture of a mermaid crossed with a horse. He's rather big so don't be scared. He's nice and extremely talented doctor." He flipped the T.V. off the news and changed it to something more pleasant. The wrappings around his neck were always there and he never really told her why he had them. It was an old scar that would never leave and was connected to t constant pain in his shoulder. He never really talked about the major scarring on his body. He told her about a few of them but most where kept to himself along with his hidden eye.

Tsume shook his head. No matter how many time he peeled the flesh where the wound was, it still healed the same. The same horrible scarring. His hand touched the wrappings on his neck until Sheridan's voice brought him back. He looked to her and listened to her questions. He knew the Doctor was a little out there but he would take good care of her and the coming child. "The child will be stronger than most children. Most demons have that strength but since the child is only going to be one third demon, you don't have to worry too much. I just hope the little one isn't much of a kicker. You might find some bruises and a bit more pain than a normal child. You'll crave even stranger than because of the origin of the baby. It's best to prepare for such comings. I'll help you through it, of course." he watched her rub at her stomach and remembered those actions from many countless mothers. "You can breast feed the child but when it gets it's first teeth. You'll have to start on the bottle. I'll have to find some stone for him or her when they start to form teeth. normal teething toys won't work. Most likely tear right through them." he tapped his chin trying to think a good garden shopping center that sold stones. "It's best to get a c-section. Most half breeds wont' bare the signs of a demon. Demon mothers aren't so lucky...."

Tsume looked to her and smiled. He wrapped his arms around her and rested his chin on her head. He listened to her and her heart beat. He yet couldn't hear the small baby's heart beat but it would come in time. "Yes of course I will be there. What kind of father would I be if I wasn't?" He chuckled as his fingers danced on her stomach.
