 Ocie exhaled a breath he'd been holding in far too long. He had to face it, he'd gotten this fauny pregnant and had no idea what to do about it. She had a daughter that hated his guts, and he knew she wasn't going to take the news of being a big sister well. To top it off, Ocie had an ominous feeling that something even worse was going to happen. He didn't know what, but something was going to go down and soon.
"How should we approach this Twinkle?" He asked, it was probably the millionth time he'd thought about it, but the first he'd voiced it. Sparrow had some sharp claws, and he had no idea if she knew how to use them. While he was expecting some sort of pain, he didn't know just how badly she would react to the news.
"She's not going to be happy..."

 -note, Umi and I have previously discussed that this rp will be on the violent side- Yes, the time had come that she could no longer deny this pregnancy, as her stomach had begun to swell larger that simple overeating could justify. It was likely that there were suspicions already abound, due to the generally dark aura about Sparrow anytime she passed, but nothing was out in the open.
It would need to be out in the open sooner rather than later.
"We'll need to do this delicately, yet directly. Something short, sweet, and to the point, but not necessarily too bold." Twinkleshine hoped that her boyfriend could understand what she was hoping to describe. If they beat around the bush, the bird would likely become frustrated and impatient, while a direct confession would leave her in shock or, worse, complete anger. They needed a nice middle-ground, something she was unfamiliar with. Strangely enough, or not really, the girl tended to either talk in circles about uncomfortable situations or not talk at all.

( It should also be noted that Ocie will be harmed during this RP. It has been okay'd by both parties and he will not come into life threatening danger )
Ocie nodded, wondering just how he was going to manage that. It was going to be rough, Sparrow already didn't like him and to add to her dislike, he'd gotten Twinkle pregnant. He was certain he wasn't going to float out of this entirely safe. Who would in this situation?
"I don't think it would be wise for me to tell her we need to talk. She already doesn't like me, this is going to be icing on the cake." He groaned outwardly. Yeah, he was in deep with Twinkle's family. "What do you think of telling her something along the lines of "Hey... You're going to be a big sister soon?" He offered, wondering if that was too blunt or it sounded like beating around the bush too much.

"No, it isn't as bad as you say..." That was a lie. A clear, deliberate lie, made out of politeness in the situation. It was probably even worse than he expected.
Nodding to herself, she took a deep breath before moving to hold Ocie's hand for reassurance. "Alright... I think that should work! I hope so anyways." Glancing away, she paused before asking an even more important question. "Since you're going to be a part of our family and all now... Well... Would you be here when I tell her? I mean... Since she's my daughter, maybe she might find it nice to finally have a father?" she suggested, still unaware of Atlantis's feelings for her and her daughter's affiliation of him as her father. After all, in Twinkle's mind, being an 'uncle' in name for a child did not offer the same reassurance as being called a father might.

"I don't believe that..." He mumbled to himself, fully expecting something to go wrong in this entire debacle. And then her fingers found his. His hand acted on its own, twisting their fingers together and squeezed gently. He wasn't the only one scared right now.
"I wouldn't dream of it any other way Twinkle." He offered, still unaware of Atlantis living in the same home as Twinkle and Sparrow. If he'd known he'd never have come along for the trip. "But I won't ask her to call me father. Not unless she wants one." Ocie ran his free hand through his hair, this was going to be a conversation he'd never forget.

Twinkleshine laughed, shrugging as she admitted. "I mostly said that to be polite... I kinda doubt she'll ever call you her dad. I'd be pretty shocked to hear it actually and I probably wouldn't believe it unless it was with my own ears." Perhaps that seemed harsh, but, it really was putting it in light terms. She thoroughly believed that the likelihood of it happening was akin to her sprouting a second head from her shoulders. Might make for a nice story, but it was completely far-fetched.
Placing both of her hands on his, she squeezed tightly as she looked up to him. "How about you stay here and I'll go get her?" Before he could answer, she had already run off towards the house. Honestly, she thought that she'd rather give the teenager some time to vent any frustration of disbelief she might have on the nearby foliage before the furniture that had taken so long to build.
It would probably be half an hour or so before she returned.

Well, at least Twinkle could confirm his thoughts. Neither of them would expect Sparrow to accept him as a father, but it would be an interesting story. Right now, it seemed more than a little far fetched to him.
"Okay?" He offered as she ran off towards her home. He realized he didn't have much of a choice. Clearly there was a reason Twinkle was going to get Sparrow without him. Ocie didn't mind in the least, the girl really didn't like him.
He spent the next half hour fretting over becoming a father so quickly into whatever relationship that Twinkle and him had. Not only that, but there was the whole how was he going to take care of them thing. Anything he spawned was going to be difficult to raise. Where would the kids have to live? He groaned a bit, resting his head in his hands, finally settling on sitting down on a rock. Good Guardians he wasn't ready for any of this.

Walking into the house, Twinkleshine made a dash for Sparrow's room, waving to Atlantis as she passed through the main room. Pausing, she composed herself before knocking on the door. "Hey, Sparrow...?" From the other side of the door, various rustling could be heard before the door was thrown open, a fairly agitated bird on the other side. Her arms crossed, she continued pouting. "I'm kind of in the middle of doing something awesome; what do you want?"She placed her hands behind her back, clenching them together before rocking on her heels. "If you could come with me, there's something I want to show you~" As much acting as she had practiced, there wasn't an inch of hesitation in her tone. Rolling her eyes, Sparrow went to turn around and close the door. "Sorry mom, I don't have time for-..." "Sparrow," her mom said, addressing her directly with a commanding tone, "Young lady, you are coming with me, right now. Come." At this she turned and started to head out of the house.Visibly irritated, she sighed before following after, slamming the door (much to her mother's dislike) as she did so. When they again passed by Atlantis, she made a shrugging motion before one of confusion, letting him know she had no idea what was going on before closing the house door behind her and following, irritated, yet still curious.

Ocie groaned, head in his hands. Guardians what was wrong with him? How could he have gotten Twinkle pregnant? And wound up with an extra kid on top of it? He was going to be a laughing stock, the sprite just knew it.
It was in the middle of his self loathing that he heard foot fall. That must be Twinkle and Sparrow coming back. At least, he hoped it was Sparrow with her. Who else would it be though? He looked up, red eyes searching for the mother of his soon to be children and the daughter she took care of. Holy hell was he in trouble big.
Almost frantically, Ocie tried to straighten out his appearance, knowing they were close. Sparrow already had a pretty bad view of him, seeing him disheveled like this would only make it worse.
"Welcome back Twinkle" He called, trying to keep the nervousness and scared out of his voice.

Smiling as he came into view, Twinkleshine waved lightly at him. "Hey Ocie~!" Man, was he a site for sore eyes. Just seeing him made her want to run faster, embrace him within her arms. It also calmed her, helping her to forget the worry of having a child so soon in the relationship. Or the fear that maybe, just maybe, he didn't love her as she loved him.
Groaning loudly, Sparrow continued behind her mother. "Ugh... Really? You made me leave my room for this guy? What is wrong with you? What does he have to do with me?"

Ocie flitted towards Twinkle, she looked relieved to see him. Sparrow must have been angrier than he thought right now. Or was it angst? He couldn't really tell with this strange feathered girl. But then, he still really didn't know what she was. Who did?
"It's one of those, -we- have something to tell you things." he offered, gently wrapping an arm around Twinkle. He wasn't going to deny the children growing steadily inside his girlfriend, but he wasn't going to act like they were expected to be immediately liked.

Coming closer to Ocie, she followed his lead and wrapped one of her arms around his waist, glancing to him with a soft smile. Yes... This was a matter of both of them, so she was truly glad that he had instigated the we. On the way back, her thoughts had been about how shocked and wary he had seemed about them, yet a simple gesture and sentence was all it took to calm her. Perhaps it was childish, perhaps naive, but that was simply her. "Yes... We have something very important to tell you."
Her eyes moving quickly from one to another, Sparrow made an audible gagging-type sound before crossing her arms. "Don't tell me you are getting married or something..." she made a face at the thought, visibly shuddering. Her mom wasn't supposed to end up with this butter-freak, she was supposed to be with Uncle 'Lantis! Why couldn't she see that already?

What else would he have said? It wasn't entirely his news or her news was it? He bit back a sigh, he probably should marry her to make her an honest woman. But he really wasn't that type of pae. He'd be lucky if he ever wanted to settle down. This.. This was forcing him to stop and help out. He wasn't going to let his children be raised anywhere close to how he was raised.
"Or something is more along the lines." He offered, glancing to Twinkle. Now or never. "You're going to be a big sister."

Sparrow's eyes narrowed, her eyes continuing to dash from one to the other. No... It wasn't possible, was it? No, no, no! She couldn't accept this! Her mom was supposed to end up with her Uncle, not this guy. "What, did you find something like you found me, and now you want to play family? It's probably not healthy to take in anything you find." She just couldn't accept the idea.
"Well... No sweetie..." Twinkleshine replied in the most soothing tone she could make. In her unconscious, she could already feel a fear at just how her daughter might react, what such a creature as her could do out of frustration and anger. "I'm pregnant... Well, we're pregnant. That is what the tree's healers said of it anyways."

He could see it turning foul. He knew it wasn't going to end well. "That's really not nice Sparrow. You should be happy she took you in the way she did." He frowned, honestly, he'd have been happy to have a home the way Sparrow did.
"But, Twinkle is pregnant. I'm still not sure how that happened." He blinked, "Well, that's not... The act of it is clear, it's the what happened after part that's a little strange." He rubbed his neck with his free hand. How could he forget that night? It was amazing. But was that how she'd gotten pregnant? Ocie couldn't be sure.
