Welcome to Gaia! ::

To say she disliked being pregnant was an understatement. Rajani was miserable. At this point, with a large belly in her way, doing much more than a simple walk and sitting down was difficult. However, today she was determined to be a bit more active. Why? Because she was tired of sitting around doing nothing due to being out of breath if she did too much.

So the shifter was in the process of putting on her boots, though they wouldn't be laced up since she couldn't really do that on her own too well. Her hammer was at her side ready to go. Raja had plans to go hunting. She was hoping to get going before Hargitt took notice so he couldn't stop her or tag along. As much as she loved her best friend - refer to her pregnant belly to see how much - she was determined to go hunting and bring back a big game.

When she was sure her boots wouldn't fall off her feet she grabbed her hammer and lifted it up so she could rest it on her shoulder. Rajani looked around with a narrowed gaze. She had a feeling she was forgetting something. What was it?

When Hargitt opened the door she was half poised to turn and leave. Of course the sound of the door made her groan a bit that she'd not gotten out fast enough. When she heard his question of where she was off to she turned to look at him with the best impression of an innocent smile that she could manage. "For a stroll?" Technically it would be. In the woods. With intent to hunt something. But still a nice stroll.

The shifter noticed that he was blocking the door and felt her mood sour a bit as she narrowed her eyes at him. Why did he have to be so big? Why did he have to take up a whole doorway? There was no way she could slip past him with her belly in the way now.

The hand that held her hammer lightly drummed her fingers over the handle with mild impatience. "Did you come back for a nap? I'll leave you to it." Maybe if she got him to do his own thing then she could still go out! So she took a step toward him like she expected him to move out the way.

Her eyes narrowed even more when he clucked his tongue at her. Oh no he didn't! "Yes, with my hammer. You can't expect a lady to be unarmed these days can you?" Rajani was far from being a proper lady so she knew her argument was weak at best but so what. Her free hand went to her hip and tayed there as she looked at her friend.

The satchel got her attention next since he held it up. A brow rose slightly. "You've been out once already, I'm sure you're tired. You can rest. I'll be fine for a small stroll." She was still trying. Even if she thought he had figured out what her real intentions were. However, the mention of having an easier time walking did get her to refocus a bit. "Oh?"

She lifted her chin slightly, as though she weren't interested but her eyes were clearly looking. Not having to lace up her boots all the time would be wonderful. And it would be easier to get them on and off if they weren't clear up to her dang thighs. "Alright.." Rajani moved back a few so that she could sit down and take her boots off to be replaced.

The areas she wanted to go to were safe. And she was being reasonable! Rajani wasn't going to go after anything super big! Just maybe a radaku or two. And she could drag it back, she didn't need to carry it.

She was trying to use her feet to kick her boots off, or at least get them to a manageable point where she could pull them the rest of the way off with her hands. When he said he could rest when he got back she glared at him. He was being stubborn. Her hammer ended up being put on the bed to wait for her. "My hammer goes. What if something happens and I need to hit someone? We both know I am horrible at hand to hand and with my condition its better to have some range." Rajani batted her lashes at him now. She was trying so hard to get to be able to take her weapon with her.

When one boot was mostly off she moved to pull it the rest of the way off but the effort it took with her belly in the way caused her to grunt a bit. "This baby of yours better not be as big as you when it comes out." The shifter had already come to the conclusion she was not going to like childbirth.

When he told her that watching her remove her boots was a struggle she looked at him with a glare then lifted a finger to point at him. "You mind your business." As he got comfortable standing she continued her fight with her boots. Once one was off she went for the second. "So what if.. nn.. I was gonna.. ugh... hit something?" She huffed, out of breath, as she pulled her other boot off and let it drop to the floor.

Now that she was free of them she sat back, leaning on her hands for a minute to catch her breath and give the baby and her internal organs room. When she felt like she had energy again she made grabby hands for the new pair he'd gotten her.

Another glare was shot his direction. "You better hope it's just a big baby and not more than one. I said I'd get you one child. One. If you suddenly became an over achiever my hammer is gonna make love to your knee caps." She grumpy at him.

A trade!? Rajani half growled at him as he mentioned that he wanted her hammer for the new shoes. Oh she was going to hit him for that. And then he had the audacity to just snatch her hammer away. The shifter tried to move so that she could grab it - and while she did have hold of it he managed to pull it fast enough that her hold was too flimsy to keep on. "That's not fair Hargitt. What are you gonna do if I need it and don't have it because you want to be domineering?" Her arms were folded in front of her chest now, although it looked like they just sat on top of the table that was her belly.

The idea to fight him over it had crossed her mind but that meant putting forth effort. And she didn't have it in her.

Instead she took the offered boots and frowned at him. For some reason tears started to gather in her eyes. Which made her even more grumpy. "I just want to go hunting, damned it!" Frustration could be heard in her tone. "I don't like this. I don't like sitting around and being fat. Just let me go hunting." Her voice had become whiny by the end of her little outburst.

She was frustrated with him. Or more likely the situation. She disliked the whole of it. However, even knowing what she does she would still do it all over again for her best friend. She still wouldn't like it though.

A loud huff escaped her when he sat in front of her and grabbed her hand. A small stamp of her foot was all she could think of to show her frustration. "I'm not miserable. Mostly. Okay, yes, but I'm bored. Hargitt, I don't get to do anything." Not only because he would stop her but because her belly got in the way and when she did too much she was out of breath. And she was sure the baby was constantly putting a foot in her ribs.

"You're gay, you calling me beautiful doesn't count." She snarked at him. She knew he was trying to make her feel better but she was not going to let him off that easily.

The kick to her shin made her growl at him and slap at his arm playfully, though she was careful to avoid his crystals. "I don't like anyone else." She might tolerate some people but even then it was more for Hargitt's benefit or for work. Her dislike of people had come back full force with her pregnancy, though she was sure that was mostly just because of her mood swings.

She pointed past him at her hammer. "I get my hammer. I feel naked without it." That was one thing that would be a must. "I don't have to use it but I need my weapon." Rajani both pouted at him and narrowed her eyes.

"Can I at least go with you and do something?" She knew she wouldn't be doing any running. And wrestling with any prey was out of the question too. But she could set traps! "I'll even go fishing!" Which said a lot since she was scared of deep water.
