[Regular] Lets Play 20 Qs! (Ursula x Theresa)

[Lady Mist]

Theresa Killingworth sat on the ledge of a short wall, the kind meant to show off plants but instead held the sort of bushes that would refuse to stay away when cut down. She had seen the apartment managers tackle them before giving up, and had decided that the mangy bushes ranked just under cockroaches in terms of end of the world survival features.

The setting sun bathed the sky in warm hues of oranges and reds, though Theresa was more interested in idly spinning a little glass trinket she had bought some weeks ago. The reflecting colors gave her something to eyeball as she listened to the distant steps of other neighbors walking to and fro with whatever daily tasks their lives dictated them.

She was bored, but had to remind herself that taking the star seeds of everyone around her in the apartments wouldn't exactly be subtle. Besides, waiting for night fall would be safer (and would also mean she wouldn't need to sleep, a separate issue she didn't want to think about), and the chances of meeting a senshi rather than a human seemed to increase. And she did so enjoy meeting senshi.

Theresa's eyes snapped over to the other woman when she noticed the pause, suddenly unsure of what the proper etiquette was for addressing the host of the queen. She never could figure out how she felt about the whole rejection incident on if she should be jealous or not (which, she admitted to herself, she wasn't; as long as it hadn't been Nova, anyways), much less know what to talk about.

"Waiting for nightfall." She finally answered, with as truthful an answer as it was dull. The glint of the dark glass bird reminded her that she hadn't actually shown anyone before, and she quickly stuffed it in a pocket. So she had splurged $15 on something that was a non-essential item. Once. Just once! Though it was likely more the thought of having bought something for liking it that she was embarrassed about, than it was for just buying something. Not something she'd admit to.

"I haven't seen you jog often." Theresa spoke with hesitation, feeling awkward all over again, "Training?" She obviously didn't hear the rumors.

Theresa arched a brow slowly, first at the vague response, then they shot up her forhead at mention of a baby. Their queen was pregnant? She quickly schooled her expression back under leash, but the surprise of it still made her mind reel. At some point, she realized she forgot that humans had that tendency to reproduce. It was so obvious that she could have slapped herself for never realizing it sooner.

She shifted herself, suddenly uncomfortable but deathly curious. "How.. did.." The girl paused, trying to formulate her words, "Does the starseed.. for the baby.. form over time? Or, is it already in there?"

This opened up a myriad of questions all at once. Theresa found herself excited at the prospect of so many possibilities, and curiosity was one of her weak spots, "I wonder if I could put a starseed from one person into another.." A mental shake to get back on track.

"But how many starseeds can you hold then?" It hadn't occured to her that women might have more than one baby at a time, "Does.. her Lady have a starseed as well, so you already have two? And the baby makes it three? Or can you only hold two so you have to give birth to yourself or to Her?" Sure she was making no sense any more, and sure she was terrible at noticing what other people may or may not be feeling in response to overly personal questions about an equally private matter, but at least in her rambling she had forgotten she was nervous.
