What If? All in the Family.
It had been a freak accident. Some kind of short-circuit of energy signatures, Dr. Vernard had said when he examined them. The point was that Jon had been dragged here with them from his own facet of reality, and his energy signature was so disrupted that even that dimensional teleporter Mrs. Stark had called in couldn't send him back there. They'd really tried everything, but had finally given up.

And then, there was the other thing.

"So... do you want to tell him?" Vernique asked Svalin as she sat holding her hand on the bed. In Svalin's other hand was the test, clearly positive.

	Svalin smiled and kissed him. "Aye, we wilt." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Once they've had enough time to kiss, Vernique returns. "Okay. Told Daddy there was no point bringing the gun for Paternal Intimidation purposes..." She grins and winks. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Jon returns the kiss, then looks Vernique's way. "Yeah, that could have been... awkward." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Mine father brings a hammer," Svalin said after a few moments of thinking about what Vernique said. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"It's our moms who are really going to get excitable," Vernique says happily.

"Okay, we're going to have to start sorting out baby stuff soon. Doctor's appointments, watching what you eat, the whole thing. To be on the safe side, no more mead, not that you were drinking like Hal anyway. And no caffeine except for chocolate, because you have to be moderate about caffeine." Yes, she's lecturing you within an hour or so of the pregnancy's being confirmed, Svalin. Wife-mode comes early.

	"Aye," Svalin said. "They wilt be excited. Both of mine mothers wilt be happy about a grandchild." For different reasons, but still excited. "I wilt be fine as long as I canst have chocolate. I doth not drink coffee and Lady Sydney doth have herbal teas." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"It sounds like Vernique knows what she's doing with all this... which, I'll admit, is good. I helped babysit Jo a lot, but that's about the extent of my childcare knowledge." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	butterflybullet 2011-05-02 08:30 pm UTC (link)
	Vernique knew a lot of parents, though she'd never admitted to any plans to be one. "Well --oh." Vernique looked at him. "When did you manifest?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I'm half alien. I've had my powers all my life, though they've matured as I did. As far as the scientists could tell, Kryptonian genes are almost always dominant... I'm as strong, fast.. and so on, as my father was at my age. My sister shows her human side a little more though, so its not totally certain... but likely." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_maiden 2011-05-02 08:48 pm UTC (link)
	"I hath helped raise three younger siblings," Svalin said. "I doth know about children." Svalin's brow furled. "I art full Asgardian. This child mayhap be something the likes ne'er seen." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	butterflybullet 2011-05-02 11:59 pm UTC (link)
	"So the thing is... I only know how to babyproof for humans..." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	first_son 2011-05-03 05:38 pm UTC (link)
	"I can give you some of the tips my mother used for Jo, anyway. I also don't know if the third generation, or Asgardian side may change anything, but according to what my dad knew, and our upbringing, Kryptonians tend to develop mentally fairly quickly in comparison." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_maiden 2011-05-03 11:29 pm UTC (link)
	"I wilt talk to mine two mothers. Mine siblings and I, mostly Halbjorn, wert quite destructive on things in the house." The thought of Hal brought something else to mind, but Svalin did not want to think about that. Her son as a bear sark was not the kind of thoughts she should be having. It was probably best to wait and see. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	butterflybullet 2011-05-03 11:31 pm UTC (link)
	Unfortunately, the thought didn't escape Vernique. Her hand tightened on Svalin's arm a little. "Yeah. All the babyproofing advice we can get is good," she says quietly. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	first_son 2011-05-04 12:16 am UTC (link)
	"Let's see, super strength, speed, flight... likely going to start reading and things like that pretty early, if the Kryptonian genes kick in. Heat vision is also a problem. Lots of durable materials, fireproofing... going to need pretty regular supervision." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"It ist a good thing we hath many friends and a large family," Svalin said with a semi-forced smile. "No matter, we wilt do this." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	butterflybullet 2011-05-04 01:53 am UTC (link)
	"Exactly. And nobody's going in blind here. We're all big girls -- or boys." She shoots Svalin a slightly scolding look. "Don't go thinking you dragged anybody into this." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	first_son 2011-05-04 01:58 am UTC (link)
	"I'll certainly do my part. I've seen the New Gods children, and I did my share of babysitting Jo, even if she never started flying." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_maiden 2011-05-04 02:05 am UTC (link)
	Svalin stood up. "I must go talk to mine sister and see about taking us to Asgard. I wilt be back anon." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	butterflybullet 2011-05-04 02:05 am UTC (link)
	"Okay." And then Vernique smiles at Jon with a sigh. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	first_son 2011-05-04 03:51 pm UTC (link)
	"Ok, we'll see you soon." he replies, before looking Vernique's way. "Everything ok?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	butterflybullet 2011-05-04 04:03 pm UTC (link)
	"Yes. This is... quite a situation we've gotten ourselves into." She smiles. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	first_son 2011-05-04 04:17 pm UTC (link)
	"It is. I know you're helping Svalin out... and I really appreciate it, but I'm also sorry we got you into this." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	butterflybullet 2011-05-04 04:28 pm UTC (link)
	"It's okay. I mean, in all honesty, it's scary as all-get-out, not only a baby on the way and a weird domestic situation, but a baby who's got.... choreography. But you know, it's going to be okay." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
