Welcome to Gaia! ::

There is a loud clank from the back, and moments later, a slightly bruised Naida emerges with a squeezable bottle of caramel ice cream topping.

"...This is the best we got. I can try to mix it up for you, but I don't know if the end result will be pretty."

At the mention of kids, Faevan's ears perked up.

"So you have children too?" She said in a cheerful manner. "I was wondering if it was going to be hard for me to find playmates for mine. How many do you have?" She leaned forward on her hand, listening intently.

CLANK!

Faevan jumped, hearing Nadia fall over. She chuckled into her hand a bit as Nadia held up the topping.

"Would you like some help?" Faevan called. "I ahve a bit of experience with coffee prep." She smiled warmly.

Pink smiled widly, always loving any conversations about her precsiouses. "I have soooo many children!" She replied, indicating the ammount with her hands, a commponplace amongst conversation with her, having so much italian blood in her afterall.

Pink looked over to Naida. "Really?" She patted her only belly and looked down at it fondly, "I am too. The first few weeks of expecting so I bet you couldn't tell, but I do have a bun in the oven!" She said with a chuckle.

"Haaaaaa?" Naida sets a steaming mug of hot cider aside and immediately leans over the counter, sending receipts flying as she pushes herself forward until her head is inches away from Pink's belly and her legs are splayed awkwardly in the air.

She then narrows her eyes and appears to concentrate intensely for a few moments, as if the action would enable her to see directly into the stomach of the newly pregnant woman.

[edit]

"Mmmmmm..." she mumbles, her brow still lined with thought. "The boss is just impatient or an idiot, depending on who you ask. Her name's Jun Keth, and... come to think of it, I think she went home for a bit."

"Don't mind me," Naida mumbles, still focusing on Pink's stomach. "I'm just trying something out. Some military folks told me I've got some 'Leet Skillz', and I'm just seeing if it's true."

She frowns with effort as she continues to stare, and then finally pulls herself back up, her face red from having been at that odd angle.

"Nope. Guess not."

Pink laughed as Naida went back to the other side of the counter and continued when Faevan joined in. She finally stopped and gave a getnyl smile to Naida. "You could have them, you never know? Maybe they work on things...besides babies? Mine isn't very developed as it is anyway, don't worry."

"Thanks Faevan!" She said, beaming and smilling almost idiotically at the simple congradulations.

Faevan sat quietly, observing all the talk of babies. She didn't really know anything about them. Not even how to raise them, really. She kind of had a crash course. So she simply nodded her head along with the conversation, keeping up silently.

Pink loooked to Fae sitting quietly near them. "Do you have any little ones? Adoptive or Natural, they aer all the same. Just a little more pain with one," She said with a laugh, "Which one that is, you have to pick!"

Pink's eyes became wide once again, but she spoke in a whisper this time, like it was some illegal and foreign thing they were talking about, "You can HEAR the babies?"
