On the surface, Natasha's statement about their future children was innocent enough. But she knew what she was doing. They needed to get this conversation out there, and dealt with. Natasha remembered talking to Teddy in the past, his revelation that his parents were worried about his future kids, and if they may be creatures like Drake. It was obviously a source of tension in his family, and maybe it was better for everyone to deal with it now rather than later.
She stayed silent as they spoke amongst themselves. She listened. Observed. When she felt like she could, Natasha set her wine glass down on the table and spoke. "It's not a guarantee that our children will be like Drake. And if they are, we'll handle it. Alex will still come around frequently, but marriage is difficult enough between two people, let alone trying to make it work with an extra roommate. As for children, I suppose we have the advantage that you and Elizabeth didn't," she told Adam simply. "We know this is a possibility and we can prepare for it. It won't sneak up on us. I'm not worried about this." She was on some level, but not as much as she had been initially. Natasha knew Teddy better now than she had before. And she had met Drake. It wasn't going to be as complicated as she thought and that was comforting.
