Who: Mora, Don, any Weird Sister who feels like stopping by.
When: Late Morning the 25th of March
Where: Donaghan's flat
What: Likely R for language.
Why: Look who's rping?



Morag didn't like muggle illnesses. They made her sleepy. They made her cry when things happened in the novels she'd been reading. They made her eat a strange variety of things spicy, bitter, and salty. She'd taken a pepper-up and...nothing. Fucking muggles! However, today Mora was feeling better in general and had actually got out of bed and bathed before moving into the living room, clad in one of Don's shirts and a pair of black pajama bottoms...all at eleven a.m. which was vastly unusual. She sipped her cup of tea and lightly stroked Churchill's fur as she waited for Don to wake up.

Her stomach growled and Mora forced herself up and walked into the kitchen. She threw open the pantry door to see if anything looked good. Not really. She moved to the fridge and looked. There was a fish and as she looked at it, the bile rose in her throat and she turned just in time to vomit in the sink. She'd have to ask Don to get rid of it even though it was still good, it looked and smelled terrible to her. Mora rinsed her mouth out before opening the fridge again, this time looking away as she reached in and pulled out a jar of gherkins. That'd work. She went back out into the living room and sat back down on the sofa, a strange sort of ill with hunger. As she crunched on her pickles, Mora silently vowed never to go into muggle London again.

Don woke up just in time, it seemed. He could hear Mora gagging as he tugged on a pair of pajama bottoms, shuffling out of the bedroom with a yawn just as Mora crunched on her pickle. He wrinkled his nose, flopping down beside her and nuzzling against her neck. "Should you be eating pickles when you were just sicking up in the sink, pet?" he asked gently, running his fingers up and down her thigh.

Mora smiled at her lover as he came in and sat beside her. "Mm... fish in the fridge needs ta go. It smells terrible ta me. But I wis hungry an' wanted somethin' sour. So here I am. I dinna wake ye up did I? I'm sorry love." She leaned her head against his and let her hand fall atop his. "I wis feelin' fantastic today until I saw tha' fish. But th' gherkins are makin' me stomach loads better. I jist hope this thin' goes away soon. I must huv got it when I wis in Piccadilly or somethin.' There's no wizardin' thin' like it so..." Mora shrugged and kissed Donaghan on the top of the head before she stood and set the pickles in the kitchen.

"Won' be a tick. Gonna ya know...brush me teeth." She disappeared long enough to brush said teeth and to pull her hair up into a ponytail before she rejoined Donaghan and leaned her head on his shoulder.

Mora's disappearance to brush her teeth gave Don time to think about this all for a moment. Getting ill in the mornings. Sensitivity to smells. Strange cravings. ...Oh fuck. Don swallowed thickly, barely even noticing when Mora returned until she put her head on his shoulder.

"Hey, um," he started quietly, wrapping his arm around Mora's shoulders and turning his face into her hair. "Do you think... I mean, is there a possibility that you might be... you know. ...Pregnant?" he whispered, closing his eyes.

"Oh no tha's nae a muggle...oh." Mora stopped what she was saying and began to think. She counted days three times in her head and then looked at Donaghan with wide eyes. "Y...Yeah s'entirely possible...One second..." She rose and ran into the bedroom to look at her calendar. Shit. She came back out looking highly worried as she rejoined Don.

"I skipped me period. Dinna even notice. Whae do I do?" He was the one with experience in this. "Obviously see a healer tomorrow. Or tonight." And then there was the question of WHO's it was. Fuck. Fuck. "Fuck." She sighed and put her head in her hands. She wasn't worried about the baby. She could do that and had the money to do it on her own. But how the hell was she supposed to know who the father was?!? It really didn't matter, she figured, she was not interested in Brian and Marcus was a danger to himself, let alone a baby. And Donaghan already had one. It never occurred to her that Donaghan would want anything to do with her. No. THAT was going to be over if she was pregnant, and Mora couldn't blame him.

"Hey," Don murmured, running his fingers gently through Mora's hair. "Hey, we'll figure something out. We'll go to the healer and we'll make sure you're healthy and... we'll figure out what we want to do. If we want to, you know... get married. Or not. We'll figure it out. ...Whatever happens, I'll take care of you." He kissed the top of her head and closed his eyes.

He had to be mad. There was no other excuse. But he wanted to be there for her and it was more than what was expected. She smiled then, ridiculously happy that she wouldn't have to move yet. "But I'll tell ye one bloody thin' Donaghan. Nae one is marryin' me jist because ay a baby. But we've nae even talked about whae we were befair this. An' I'll never marry unless I know it's gonna work."

Honestly she didn't even really know what they were supposed to be now but they acted like more than simple lovers. That was for sure.

Okay. So they wouldn't get married. That was completely fine. But he was going to take care of her, no matter what. Nodding, he kissed down the side of her neck and pulled her close. "Okay. But I'm still taking care of you." He very slowly placed a hand over her stomach and gave her neck another soft kiss. Merlin, there was a baby in there.

"We take care ay eachother. S'whae we've been doin' since I fell through yer grate." She closed her eyes as he kissed her and bit her lip. "Don, whae are we? Don' think ay th' baby but whae were we befair? Whae are we now? I don' even wanna think ay marriage because we don' huv this sorted at awl. But if'n I ever did marry, ye'd be th' best ye know tha'."

Don shrugged his shoulders gently, keeping his one hand over Mora's stomach and stroking the fingers of his other hand up and down her side. "Honestly, love, I don't know. I do know that I care about you an awful lot. A lot, a lot. And I don't want to lose you, not when we could be something more than just...shagging flatmates."

She smiled and curled up against her lover. "We've been somethin' mair fer ages, but I understan'. I don' wanna lose ye fer anythin'. But would ye want this bairn? I mean... ye've got Ana an' I'd never want ta take anythin' away fae her. I love tha' little thin'." Mora titled her head to catch Don's lips with hers. "Ana deserves th' world." And if she was pregnant... would he want to care for a child that wasn't his??

"Trust me, Ana won't have anything taken away from her. I have more than enough love in me for her and a thousand more little babes," Don promised, kissing Mora again. "'ve always wanted a big family. Honestly, that's probably the only reason I married my last wife. She told me she was pregnant, and I wanted the baby. ...All she wanted was my money, and when we broke up, I was more upset that she wasn't pregnant than I was about getting divorced again."

He kissed Mora once more, letting it linger for longer than the first two kisses. "I want this baby," he assured her. "It's sudden and unexpected, but I want this. I do."

"Good. 've never hud much ay a family. Parents an' sister died when I wis a wee one. Gran used awl ay us fer her own ends. Used ta be close ta me brother but don' talk ta him anymair. An' I huv a cousin but she's a ha'blood so we never talked ta her."

She picked up Don's hand and kissed it. "Well... we'll do this then. An' if'n I ever meet yer ex I'm gonna do major damage ta her. At least ye know tha' whaever happens I adore ye fer who ye are. I've got money of me own an' I don' need yers."

"You don't have to do anything to her. It's over, she didn't get anything in the divorce, it doesn't matter any more," he whispered, brushing his fingers down her cheek and kissing her softly. "Really. All that matters is now." He smiled gently, leaning in for another kiss and nuzzling against her temple. "We can be a family, as backwards as we're doing this."

"Never did do anythin' th righ' way. I'm gonna need ta figure oot who th' Father is. Could be ye or Marcus though I doubt s' his. I don' think I wis wi' him tha' week. An' I'm goin' ta break everythin' off wi' him. He drives me mad at th' best ay times. I don' want him around when I'm pregnant. An' if'n I'm nae pregnant there's somethin' seriously wrong wi' me."

She smiled and kissed Donaghan back, her head whirring.

"We've been a family fer a while though."

"You have no idea how much I love hearing that," Don murmured, stroking her hair gently. "And even... Even if it isn't mine, I'll love this child. I want you to know that. I don't care if you made it all by yourself, that wee little one in there will be loved."

Mora laughed and held Donaghan tight. "See? We already act like we're married. We don' need a ring an' someone else's words ta validate th' relationship. An' thank ye. Few others would be so acceptin' in this situation. I adore ye. I care aboot ye so much. Ye've changed me a bit. A lot really. Befair ye... I wis a bitch ta everyone. I dinna like most people an' I shut most people oot an' pushed them away. I never thought anyone would care fer me ever. But... if'n we're gonna make this work... ye need ta know somethin' ye're nae gonna like. An' if ye want me ta leave I will but ye deserve me honesty." She was serious now. And frightened of what she had to tell him. But she had to.

"Befair I came here... I studied th' Dark Arts. Loved doin' it. Never ta use agin anyone. Always fer education. I found auld curses an' hexes an' tried them ta see if they worked. If they did, I modified them fer modern times if I could. I needed test subjects because I needed ta see if they worked. Usually they were jist cows an' sheep an' th' like. But some ay th' bigger ones... I needed humans. I... I tested a few oot on muggles. An' if they dinna die durin' th' curse... I hud ta kill them. It wis th' most humane thin' fer them when I wis done. Ye know I came fae a elitist family. I believed they were nae better than th' livestock I used. As much as me outlook hus changed an' now tha' I don' really mind muggles in general even if I'd nae speak ta them unless I huv ta... I don' regret whae I've done because I don' regret anythin' an' I needed them ta know my work paid off. Tha' th' curses worked. Obviously, I've stopped awl me work now. An' if ye ask it ay me, I'll stop fer good. I'm nae a bad person an' ye know it. Scientists need ta experiment is awl."

She sat and waited for Donaghan to process the information. She just hoped he wouldn't hate her. She didn't know if she could deal with that.

Don felt as if someone had grabbed him around the chest and squeezed. He couldn't breathe properly, and he couldn't look at Mora. The past was the past, of course, but this... She'd experimented on people? Dark Arts... Merlin. ...This was too much. Too much all at once.

"You don't have to go," he whispered. "You stay. I just... I need to think about this. I'm gonna... I'll be at Kirley's. I'll be back tomorrow. Just give me until tomorrow, okay?" He finally looked down at Mora, just gazing at her for a moment before kissing her once and gently extracting himself from her arms. "Tomorrow, I promise."

"No. Ye daft eejit this is yer flat. I'll go. I can stay at me Gran's manor. She's nae gonna be an issue I've got her in a box in me fuckin' sock drawer. An' don' look at me like tha' she deserved it. I'm nae lettin' ye fuckin' leave yer own house because ay me. I'll jist go up ta Scotland fer as long as ye need an' I can owl ye want th' healer says when I go." She stood and went to her room and pulled out her trunk. She began putting everything she had in it, the box with her gran in it resting on her bed.

She'd go. There was no way in hell she'd let him leave. And as she tossed shirts and things into her trunk, the emotion got the better of her and she felt the hot tears sliding down her face. She sniffed and kept going, shoving things down with more force. Why did she even have to fucking tell him? Stupid fucking emotions. They ruined fucking everything!

Oh for the love of... "Mora, look, you don't... You don't have to go. Please. It's not..." He followed her helplessly, standing in the doorway of the bedroom. And fuck, now she was crying. Shit. "It's just until tomorrow, okay?" he whispered. "Just stay. And please, don't... Don't cry."

"Oh fer th' love..." Mora turned around to look up at Donaghan. "I'm nae lettin' ye leave yer own home when I can go ta mine. So no. Either we can both stay an' I'll stay in here so ye can think or I'm gonna leave so ye can think. Or we can both leave. But I'm nae stayin' here withoot ye." She wiped her eyes and tossed in her trousers before getting up and sitting on her bed, the tears falling heavier.

"I cannae help it. I could lose ye an' I'm bleedin' pregnant. So I cannae help it if I'm cryin'!"

Don shook his head, grabbing a tissue from the bedside table and gently wiping her tears away. "You aren't going to lose me," he whispered, stroking her hair gently. "I just...need to think." He paused for a moment, then shook his head, stepping back. "If you want to go, I won't stop you, but just... Wait to go to the healer until I'm back, okay? And... take the dogs with you. At least Dougal and Stanley and Fish, okay? I don't... I don't want you to be alone."

"Bollocks. I've lost everyone else who cared aboot me. I'm used ta it really." She smiled weakly at him and picked up the box. She opened it without warning Donaghan and the room was filled with the blood curdling scream of the shrunken and inside out person within.

"This is awl yer bloody fault ye stupid bitch. But guess wha'! I'm pregnant an' by a musician. So ye can eat yersel' cause none ay yer plans are gonna happen ye auld cow."

She slammed the door shut and tossed it into the trunk. "I always feel better after I yell at her. But yeah... Jist... I won' be alone. I'll huv Dougal an' me brother an' a house full ay servants who'll spoil me because I'm pregnant... I'll be alrigh'. Cause if ye don' come back I don' want ta take yer dogs fae ye an' Ana." She sighed and ran a hand through her hair. "I really wish I'd nae told ye. I spoil everythin'."

Merlin, that was unnerving... "I told you, I'm coming back," Don told her sharply, gently catching Mora's wrist and kissing her palm. "I just need a little time. Please, Mora, just trust me, will you? ...I'll owl you. In a few days, I promise. No longer than a week."

"Oh it was one fuckin' day a moment ago. Now it's nae mair than a week. Whaeever. I want ta trust ye. I do. I'm jist fuckin' scared an' hormonal." She sighed and looked down at her hand in his. "I'll floo Mordred ta help me git th' trunk home. But let me ask ye this... If'n ye know ye're comin' back whae are ye thinkin' aboot?" She just didn't understand any of his actions because she wasn't used to being with someone who cared like he did.

Don faltered, slowly releasing her wrist and taking a step back. "I just... I care about you, Mora. And you just... You can't just fucking tell someone who cares about you that you used to... to experiment on people, and expect them to be fine. ...I need some time, okay? Please. Just give me a few days. Just a few days." He reached over again to touch her cheek, leaning in for a single kiss before he stepped back again.

"I'm givin' ye awl th' time ye need. I'll be in Loch Ness when ye're ready. I promise I'll stay there an' will wait ta break up wi' Marcus an' go ta th' healer until I hear fae ye. If ye want...if it'll help...I'll burn every fuckin' book in our library. I really will do anythin' I can... an' jist keep in mind I never thought I'd ever say tha' ta anyone. I care aboot ye so very much." She smiled sadly and stood, letting go of his hand.

She sighed and called out, "Jinxy!" There was a pop and a bent over house elf appeared and bowed so low her nose pressed against the floor. "Yes Mistress?" Morag pointed to the trunk. "Take this home. Tell Mordred I'm on me way home an' tell th' kitchen staff I want roast duck fer dinner wi' chips an' gravy." The elf bowed again. "Jinxy will do as instructed Mistress and we're happy to have her back!" With that, Jinxy and the trunk disappeared and Mora sighed.

"So... Whae's safer... flooin' or apparatin'? Or should I figure oot how ta do th' muggle train? By th' time I get home a day would huv gone by..."

Her heart felt like it was twisting inside her chest and she felt ill, though that could be the sickness. She was shaking and emotional and she didn't want to go. Still, she called for Dougal and when the monster of a dog came bounding in followed by Winnie and Fish, Mora had to wipe away more tears.

"Dougal we're goin' home, ye'll huv ta say 'bye' to yer mates...at least fer a bit." Dougal whimpered and she shook her head. Winnie pawed at Mora's legs and she sighed. "I huv ta go fer a bit love. Ye keep yer Da company alrigh'?"

Don swallowed hard, biting down on his bottom lip. "Floo," he whispered roughly. "'ve got wards up against Apparating." Merlin, this was killing him. He was doing the right thing, wasn't he? She'd told him something big, he needed to get away and think about it for a bit, right? Fucking hell.

"Take care of yourself," he told her quietly, gently brushing away her tears. "I'll talk to you soon. I promise, Mora." He kissed her softly, then knelt down to kiss her stomach before standing and kissing her once more.

Mora sniffed as Donaghan kissed her and when he kissed her the second time, she kissed him hard, as if she'd never kiss him again. She then pulled away from him and grabbed the floo powder in the living room and took Dougal by his leash. She threw the powder into the grate and turned around to look at Donaghan.

"I think I love ye." She whispered, wiping away tears before turning and stepping into the flames.

"Loch House. Loch Ness. Scotland"

There was a swooshing sound and she and Dougal were gone.

Mora soon found herself stumbling out of the grate and into the arms of her brother.

"Mo whae's happened?" He asked, concerned as her held his sister close as she cried. Mora just shook her head.

"I fucked up. Mordred...I'm in love and I'm pregnant!" She sobbed into his shoulder. She felt him tense as he held her.

"WHAT!?"

"Fucking hell," he whispered, sitting heavily on the edge of the bed. Love? Fucking hell. She... He... Oh Merlin. He scooped Winnie and Fish into his arms and slid off the bed, onto the floor.
