Its an easy call. Sarah treats her workouts the way Anya treats her research - disappearing into it at times. She's on the weights Stark, Inc. designed for her, working on the 65 ton press.

"Eighteen... nineteen...."

"Twenty. You're done," Anya said from the doorway. "I love it when you're all sweaty from a workout. Though I usually like being that workout."

Sarah rolls her eyes, but sits up on the bench. "Soon, very soon. But you actually work sometimes, so I have to find other things to occupy myself."

	From: anyastark	Date: May 19th, 2013 08:53 pm (UTC)		(Link)

Anya smiled. "Yes, but I'm home and we're going to spend some time together before bed."

"Redhead time! Wonderful. Those are my favorite nights."

"Meet you in the living room in ten minutes?" Anya asked. "I'll call and have dinner delivered."

	From: rogue_star	Date: May 21st, 2013 06:16 am (UTC)		(Link)

"Ten minutes? Sure. That gives me time for a quick shower and throwing something on. What are we doing for dinner?"

	From: anyastark	Date: May 21st, 2013 05:21 pm (UTC)		(Link)

"Takeout," Anya replied. "Whatever you're in the mood for."

"Uhm, I know we did pizza last time I chose, but is it too soon again to order pizza again? Or would you prefer Indian?"

	From: anyastark	Date: May 21st, 2013 05:33 pm (UTC)		(Link)

"No," Anya said with a chuckle. Anya would choose burgers each time. Her wife was a pizza person. "Hawaiian pizza it is."

	From: rogue_star	Date: May 22nd, 2013 05:26 pm (UTC)		(Link)

Sarah likes variety. After some years of having to scrounge and forage for scraps, just having the option to order anything on the menu still feels like a dream come true sometimes. So she switches it up... but pizza is definitely the go to.

"Hawaiian pizza... and do we have any ice cream left?" she asks, hopefully.

"We don't. I'll make sure they deliver some as well. Americone Dream?" Anya knew her wife very well.

	From: rogue_star	Date: May 22nd, 2013 07:58 pm (UTC)		(Link)

"Yep! Didn't know that came delivery... but I should have known better, in your case. What can I say? Its the perfect dessert with pizza."

Anya smiled. "It's perfect for celebrating," she said putting the bait out there.

	From: rogue_star	Date: May 22nd, 2013 08:02 pm (UTC)		(Link)

Sarah has started towards the showers. It takes a moment, but... she pauses, looking back.

"Wait... what are we celebrating? Or are you going to leave me in suspense and tell me over dinner?"

Because that would be the Stark thing to do.

	From: anyastark	Date: May 22nd, 2013 08:04 pm (UTC)		(Link)

Anya grinned. She was a Stark, but her Romanova side did balance it out. A little.

"It worked. We're going to be parents."

Sweaty or not, she can't help it. Sarah turns and pounces Anya, kissing her firmly.

"You really did it? You're pregnant?"

	From: anyastark	Date: May 22nd, 2013 08:08 pm (UTC)		(Link)

Anya returned the kiss and then laughed when it was over. "Yes. I'm pregnant."

Sarah picks her wife up, lifting off the ground and spinning a bit. "That's wonderful! It had taken so long with no news... I'd kind of stopped thinking about it."

	From: anyastark	Date: May 22nd, 2013 08:14 pm (UTC)		(Link)

"I didn't," Anya told her. "It took a few tries, but it finally took. I didn't tell you because I didn't want to disappoint you with the failures."

"I take it by your reaction you're happy?" Anya teased.

	From: rogue_star	Date: May 22nd, 2013 08:17 pm (UTC)		(Link)

"Nope, this is me, sorely disappointed. You'll just have to try harder." she responds to the teasing in kind.

"I have to warn you that my dad knows, obviously, so that means my mother knows. She's already started shopping."

	From: rogue_star	Date: May 22nd, 2013 11:50 pm (UTC)		(Link)

"That's ok. I would definitely be telling my parents, were it an option. I'm glad the child will have one set of involved grandparents."

	From: anyastark	Date: May 22nd, 2013 11:57 pm (UTC)		(Link)

"I think Uncle Steve will gladly step in and take up the role of grandparent," she said. "I'd bet on that."

"I'm sure he'll be happy to help, yes. Its still... well, not the same, but he's been very kind while I've been here. And, of course, he really is a lot like Dad was."
