"He jus' likes the good swear words," Hunter joked, though she grinned quite proudly. The idea that he could recognize her voice was sort of amazing, she had heard about that sort of thing in the boring books Sera had bought for her, but she never thought that it would be really happening to her. Reality setting in kept blowing her mind as the months went on and the day got closer and closer. "He's growin' all the time," she laughed fondly.

Nodding firmly, Hunter showered the top of the other girl's head with kisses. "You bet! I'm gonna make my parents look like the schmucks they were.. I'm gonna do everythin' right for us, be a real family," she assured Michi. She would never get tired of saying that, of telling the younger girl. She was going to do the best for the three of them that she could, even if it killed or something.

"Yeah he is. Growin' almost constantly I feel," she said rubbing her belly. "Sometimes I can't believe there's a little guy in there, all bundled up and shit," she admitted. "It don't seem possible."

"We're both gonna make our parents look like assholes," she laughed. "And we'll take care of ourselves and our boy and Yori," she squeezed Hunter as tight as she could. "A proper fuckin' family," she repeated warmly. "Aint no one gonna ruin shit for us."

"Crazy, ain't it?" Hunter agreed, shaking her head a bit at the thought. "The whole idea of pregnancy always sorta.. gave me the heebie-jeebies, y'know? Li'l guy grownin' in there and stuff.. it's nuts. Like, and it ain't even magic, it's like.. science!"

Nodding her head, Hunter lifted one arm and gave it a flex. "Damn right! I'll crack some heads if I gotta, I'll keep us safe," she grinned.

"Right?! It's like..." she wiggled a little. "Still skeeves me a little but I aint never felt so like protective and shit. Like, I know everyone is always tryin' to take care of the preggo ladies but I feel like I don't need no takin' care of. I feel stronger'n ever. Weird science man."

"I know ya will pops," Michi smiled warmly. "I aint got nothin' to fear and... we'll take care of all the other unimportant shit when it comes to it," she of course was talking about the legality of their situation, the birth certificates, and the issue of custody. None of that mattered though, as long as they had each other.

Hunter was immediately relieved at her girlfriend's admission, and she laughed loudly. "Wanna know somethin'?" she asked, before laughing again and going on. "Yer the first real pregnant I been close to, I-- I dunno, it always freaked me out, made me think like.. aliens were gonna pop outta there, I didn't like that movin' around shit. I remember even when I was real little an' my ma was havin' Beth.. I didn't wanna touch her stomach, no fuckin' way, but it ain't the same. It's our kiddo in there, y'know? Guess it really is different when it's yer own," she shook her head, looking only slightly embarrassed.

She was quick to shake it off, puffing her chest out importantly and nodding. "Superstar terrorist huntin' aurors make mega money, we'll have the best damn lawyers in the country, don't you worry!"

"It definitely is different when it's yer own. I used to think Yori was an alien," she said patting her belly again. "First I was like... I didn't want this, not that I didn't want him, just... the whole timin' of it," she shrugged. "But the second thought was... I gotta take care of this little monkey," she grinned.

"I won't worry," she said, genuinely calmed by her girlfriend's gusto. "I know we'll take care of this all in time. Fer now let's just enjoy the quiet we'll have before Monkey comes bustin' into the world hollerin' for a binkie," she giggled.

"I think everybody gets to wig a lil' bit at first.. it's a real big thing an' all," Hunter admitted, shaking her head. "I mean, at first I was like holy shit but then it was like.. y'know, the more ya think about it, the more ya realize that you got it under control. We got it under control," she went on, trailing off a bit sheepishly.

"Gotta take advantage of that quiet time.. and maybe that sexy time, I'm pretty sure them books says that don't last forever neither. You gotta get in all the good stuff while ya can," the blonde giggled back, waggling her eyebrows.

"It is, 'specially when ya weren't plannin' on it but the good thing is people tend to get near nine months for plannin'," she grinned. "We got this thing boo, I aint worried one bit." Though she was worried, mostly about the actual birthing part but she was sure there was no amount of preparation for that.

Michi giggled, her cheeks flushing, though she felt anything but sexy. "Well ya know, so long as you aint turned away by my big old belly," she half joked. She had been reassured over and over again but no one clould say anything to make her feel any better about it. Her mother had criticized her her whole life about any extra pound or two she might be carrying around.

"Nine months seems like a long time till they're in there," she grinned back, a little weakly. She had been getting more and more worried with every passing month it seemed like, and though she was enjoying the fun things like the kicking and the late night feasts, she would feel much better once the whole thing was over and they had their Monkey already.

"Hey," the blonde laughed back, looking mock stern as she stared at her girlfriend. "Nothing 'bout you could turn me off. Y'all should see yourself," she informed the younger girl, whistling as she made a show of looking her over. "Y'know what I'm sayin' right? Y'all are a stone-cold fox, c'mon."

"It's true," she laughed. "Now I'm just excited. Like... I wanna have him come on out already. Though... we sure are gonna be squished," she laughed. "Livin' in that damn two by four they call a room," she shrugged. "We'll make it work." May really couldn't come fast enough.

She smiled shyly and nodded. "Well than y'all are the hottest pops on the planet," she grinned. "We gonna have us a fine lookin' boy."
