Riley turned his head and sneezed suddenly. "Ugh, I must coming down with something....And what timing too..." he said rubbing his nose.((  ))

Ceri smiled. "Well, Alek, your sisters have their own ways of being very pursuasive...." she said. She cracked her neck. "I just hope that Angel doesn't kill Riley or the child while...." her voice trailed off.

"She knows what to do." Alek gave a shrug. "Ain't that right, Val?"
"Mum told us what to do in case of a vampire birthing," she murmured. "Chained down, food supply at the ready, and I mean a lot of blood, because there's a lot of bleeding in a vampire birth, way more than any human could ever bleed. She'll actually start going a little loopy about now, and she'll be completely out of it by the time she falls asleep, part of the defense mechanism."

"You better help take good care of that baby, Angel. You're lucky to have her." Mala said, still keeping that calm yet oddly happy tone as she spoke.

"Oh yeah, and Van, we need to go hunting. We're going to need to catch a lot of animals for Angel. And they have to be alive." Riley said.
"Aww, do I have to?" Van sort of whined as he hugged Mala close again, like a little kid that didn't want to do go somewhere and clung to whatever currently held his attention.
"Yes. I'm not dragging back around a hundred plus pounds of living critters by myself." Riley said folding his arms.

"I love my baby Jezebellun," Angel said cheerfully, hugging her tummy, then Riley. "If you want, Lala, you can take care of her when I have to feed. So you can be a momma, too." Angel's face was earnest, hopeful, and full of joy all at once.

"Hm? Not at all. Just seems a bit... retro." the Recorder said, trying to hide his smile.
"Wow." Rincewind said. "That seems... unnecessarily violent."

"Some sects of rogue vampires believe a birthing requires the slaughter of at least fifty humans," Alek murmured. "Believe me, Angel's birthing is going to be a fairly standard one and much less violent than it could be."

Ceri and Micheal nodded. They had both read about vampiric birthings. The text had given them nightmares for a week.

Mala's grip on Van tightened slightly as she murmured into his ear, "Don't worry, Van. Once this is all over wiu we can continue doing this." Her tone was soft, reassuring. Afterwards she turned her gaze to Angel as she said, "I'll be happy to help out where needed." Mala couldn't help but find Angel's somewhat warped innocence to be adorable - even if it wouldn't be the same, she appreciated the thought.

Angel smiled and then scooted back to her room, where she laid on her back, wings spread beneath her. She stared intensely at the ceiling.
((Btw, when I say scoot, I mean literally, on her little vampire behind, scooting. CATCH A RIIIIIIIIIDE))

((The mental image. It makes me lol. xD))
"I know, I just like messing with him." Van told her with a smile before giving her a kiss. "We'll be later then. Hunting takes enough time as it is, bring them back alive is going to be more problematic." he said as he got to his feet and left with Riley to go catch some critters.

After the kiss, Mala gazed vacantly for a seccond before she spoke. "Very well. Good luck with the hunting!" After that, she watched as Van left and pondered what she should do now.

When the boys were gone, Angel scooted back into Mala's room and snuggled with her. "Lala, I love you," she murmured sleepily.

"Now! Let's take a look at this beautiful machine!" the Recorder shouted, moving in a way that made it seem as though he was dancing around the hexagonal control panel. "Ooh, lights! Lights are always good. Viewscreen! Yes!" He laughed, loudly. "Now, let's see if we can get this baby working!"
