[ watches their hands, calculating his breathing ]

[ Makes a quiet sound of acknowledgment. ] If you were someone else, any other person, than a variant of her.. I would think you were feeding me lies and let you have it. But I know that isn't the case.

[ Grips his hand tighter, voice gradually growing desperate. ] I don't know what anyone can do for us. She has to be strong. With or without me, she has to be...

... [ shifts, taking one hand with both of his and squeezing it ] [ determined replica is determined. ]

[ Nods and allows his hand to go slack, eyes trained on the floor between them. ] ...I was a damn fool.

[ steps forward, releasing his hand with one hand and placing the arm around his shoulders to pull him into a protective embrace ]

[ Slouches into his hold with a heavy sigh, wings rising and falling in time with his breathing. ] I'm not sure you're the right person to talk to about this.

[ just starts stroking his hair ]

[ Talk about role reversal. ] ...it's about Luke.

[ runs his hand through his hair ]

[ Gives him a questioning look at the mothering but continues. ] I'm not sure just how you think of her, so what I wish to talk about could be awkward for you.

[ smiles ]

[ Gives an ever-so-slight smile in return. ] ...the other night, we slept together for the first time. I'm concerned about her being just that, a her.

... [ for some reason that made his chest hurt, but he smiles right over it. ] [ pets his hair again ]

[ He notices the hesitation there, almost regrets saying anything at all. ] It has been slow going, but that was for the best. [ Looks away from him and nods, clamming up for a moment. ] ...there is really a technology that is capable of determining if she may be pregnant?

I'm afraid mentioning my worries will scare her. With her fainting the other day, she may find it all to be too much to take.

...she may break without me if I die, but should our night together result in a child.. it would be far worse for her.

...you certainly know a lot on these matters. [ He's giving Luke that "Just what the hell have you been up to?" look. ]

[ gives him a sort of sheepish look. ...he's never actually gotten anybody pregnant that he's aware of, but he's certainly been around. ]

How is it necessary? You simply need to keep yourself in check, and certain parts out of where they don't belong. [ He's still wondering about you and your.. tendencies, Luke. 8| ]
