Day 311 [Action/Open] [Video/Closed]
[Action \ Open]
[Kitty is standing in a clothing store in Sector 4, trying not to freak out. She doesn't understand how it's possible, but she woke up decidedly pregnant ~~or at least her reflection did.~~ Not so much that it looks like she's giving birth any second, but more than enough to know it's not just that burrito from last night.

Shockingly, the prison clothing store does not carry maternity wear, but she needs something to...hide it. Until she can figure this out.

And eventually she'll have to leave the store, so there might be some attempts at stealth mode getting back to the apartment. Is it safe to airwalk through tree limbs while pregnant? Watch out for occasional falling leaves when she solidifies for a break.]

[Voice \ Closed to Reid]
Reid, I... Um, sorry, wrong number. [Such a good cover when you say his name.]

[Video \ Closed to Ton and Alex]
[Keeping it nice and steady on just her face. No full body shots for you yet!] I think I might need a doctor.

	No... [And this is where it gets harder.] Is anything... strange happening to you today? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You mean besides this conversation? [He's not really one for mirrors.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2015-02-17 01:55 am UTC (link)
	Yeah. Any medical changes? [Oh, if only she knew to connect it just to reflections.] Maybe something with Chuck? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	wraith_7 2015-02-17 02:24 am UTC (link)
	Did you two get into a fight or something? Because you know I have to take her side and I don't want you to beat me up. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2015-02-17 02:37 am UTC (link)
	No, we didn't get into a fight and I would totally beat you up for taking her side. [No, she wouldn't.] But she's normal? Or normal for her anyway? She's not...pregnant? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	wraith_7 2015-02-17 02:53 am UTC (link)
	My morning is about to get really interesting if she is. ... Waaaaaiiiit a second, missy. I just connected the dots here. Elaborate. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[She draws a breath and readjusts the video for the DRAMATIC REVEAL OF........nothing. Well, it's her including her stomach which looks the same as it always has.] It's gotta be like half way through a pregnancy already. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	wraith_7 2015-02-17 03:01 am UTC (link)
	[Maybe she's panicking and overreacting. Or maybe she just doesn't know how babies work. Because either way he's not seeing it. He frowns, puzzled.] Look, why don't you come down to the clinic and I can take loser look? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2015-02-17 03:06 am UTC (link)
	[She sees that look and she's not sure what it means. But everything is confusing today, so she just nods.] On my way already. Don't tell anyone else, okay? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	wraith_7 2015-02-18 11:55 am UTC (link)
	Wouldn't dream of it. [After a quick, suspicious peek at Chuck to make sure this really isn't some weird pregnancy thing gong around he heads to the clinic, arriving a minute or two before she does.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2015-02-20 02:42 am UTC (link)
	[She'll be at the clinic waiting with her totally flat, well toned stomach that she is totally not touching thoughtfully as he walks in. At least her shirt is on?] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	wraith_7 2015-02-20 02:42 pm UTC (link)
	[Hello friend who is acting like a lunitic today. Again, totally not seeing the whole pregnant thing but maybe she took some sort of home test and is freaking out and messing with her stomach as a result. It's the only explanation he can think of.] Alright, let's do some doctor stuff and see what's going on here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2015-02-21 05:35 pm UTC (link)
	[She nods.] Right, doctor stuff is good. [Facts are helpful. Except she's not sure what she's hoping for here? Truth aside, does she want to be pregnant or not?] Where do you want me? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	wraith_7 2015-02-21 08:31 pm UTC (link)
	Somewhere I can stick needles in you and steal your blood. So anywhere, really. [He finds some gloves and equipment.] So why don't you tell me what's going on? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2015-02-21 11:09 pm UTC (link)
	[She heads over to sit on a table. That works, right?] You don't see anything different about me, do you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	wraith_7 2015-02-22 12:41 pm UTC (link)
	[He shakes his head, rolling up her sleeve and disinfecting a patch of her arm with an alcohol swab.] No, not really. Part of my confusion, interestingly enough. What am I missing here? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2015-02-22 06:51 pm UTC (link)
	The part where I look very, very pregnant. I don't...know if I feel pregnant. [The mind is powerful, it can play tricks and sometimes today she's been sure walking is taking more effort and using the bathroom more often.] It's probably a trick of theirs. [The words come out a little dull.] I just thought I should see for sure. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	wraith_7 2015-02-22 06:56 pm UTC (link)
	[Pause on the syringe grabbing.] You don't look pregnant. And I don't mean that in the tactful way you use it on self-conscious pregnant women. You look normal. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2015-02-22 06:58 pm UTC (link)
	[Eyes down.] Yeah, just... Just check anyway, okay? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	wraith_7 2015-02-22 07:01 pm UTC (link)
	Okay. [He tries to stab her as nicely as possible with the needle. Somehow he's got a feeling this is the sort of situation that only has sad outcomes.] So wait, how come you see yourself looking pregnant and I don't? They're tricking one of us here. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2015-02-22 07:04 pm UTC (link)
	I don't know. I haven't seen anyone else who looked pregnant to me. No one else has mentioned waking up pregnant on the network, but maybe they wouldn't. I don't know what it is. [Except kind of painful—the feelings, not the shot. Physical pain is nothing.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[Once he's got the blood he starts fiddling around with some of the machines lining the clinic walls. It's different technology than he's used to but he's pretty sure this one checks hormone levels among other things so he gets the sample set up. Either it'll work or explode so either way he's happy.] To be fair I just glared surreptitiously a Chuck and then came here so that wasn't the most thorough detective work on my part.

	I ask if you're girlfriend is pregnant and you just glance? Brave man. [She looks over at him.] How long before you know something? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	wraith_7 2015-02-22 07:19 pm UTC (link)
	Well it seemed like an odd conversation to start the morning with and anyway if she was I would be morally obligated to abandon you here and be with her so don't get all judgy on me. [He turns his attention back to the machine.] Give it a minute, it's running the scan now. [More seriously.] You're not really going to be okay with either answer here, are you? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	kitty_has_claws 2015-02-22 07:29 pm UTC (link)
	No judgement. [She knows she won this round. She watches the machine as if it will make it go faster. Her eyes pull away from it to him before answering.] Probably not, but I'll deal. ...Did you ever want them? Kids. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
