Welcome to Gaia! ::

Any couple. What an amazing ability. So many earthling couples would be envious of that. It seemed like a fantasy, really. He could hardly imagine himself as pregnant! It sure would get in the way of working...

One thing was absolutely not a fantasy though. It was a very tangible reality that he had to face. Now that the shock had a chance to start wearing off, he was beginning to fully feel the impact of the news. Oly pulled back enough to raise his hand and gently guided Mina's chin up. This woman was the mother of his child. Maybe, one day, his children... "I wouldn't want anyone else to share it with," he assured, feeling his throat tighten a little.

"Oh, I think I might have an idea of it," he chuckled and leaned in for a kiss.

Oly hesitated briefly with a long, soft sigh while his cheeks heated bashfully at the praise. Right. They weren't really anything officially. Their relationship had been a rollercoaster as of late, so those steps had been set aside. Now though, it was definitely time to step up. She thought he was going to be wonderful... Gods, he hoped so. "Maybe stick with boyfriend," he mused with a chuckle. Then again, he wasn't so sure about that either. With a baby on the way... The heat flourished on his cheeks. How traditional would her family be? They seemed a bit opposite of Mina's spirited nature, from what he knew. "Or, if you would feel better about it.. fiancé. Nothing needs to happen right away, of course. Just think about it, maybe."

Oly's expression softened. "Yeah, I know. We don't have to. It's not feeling like I have to." They didn't need to be married to be good parents, but he did have that home-grown ideology that was one of the foundational stones of his character. The family unit. It just.. sounded really nice. Get engaged, have the baby, get married when they were ready...

His eyes widened with the acceptance. Honestly, he hadn't expected that. "Oh," he breathed out his surprise, and a goofy little smile started to rise. "Okay. Yeah. Fiancé works."
