WHO: Victor and Kat
WHAT: Finding out the baby's birth gender
WHEN: Wednesday afternoon
WHERE: Home, then Doctor's office, then maybe home?

Their appointment with the doctor was soon, and Victor was visibly excited. Today, if baby Skynet cooperated, they would be able to tell the baby's birth gender. Of course there was always the chance baby Skynet might be facing the wrong way and in that case it would mean waiting, but Victor was excited at just the idea of it. It made his child ever more a reality in his mind. He honestly could not wait to be a father.

He patted Ace goodbye as he waited for Kat to meet him at the door. "Who's a good boy? Is it you?! I think it's you, yes I do!" he cooed to the dog.

	It was honestly adorable seeing Vic this excited. She was too, but she'd come to realize she needed to go shopping too. She was outgrowing a bunch of things. She'd found something and smirked as she found Victor with Ace. "Don't get him too excited." She leaned down to scratch Ace behind the ears before getting her coat and putting it on. "All set?"

	"But his ears are so perfectly shaped and I can't help it," Victor informed Kat before petting Ace again. "Yep, all set! You look beautiful." He leaned down to kiss her before holding open the door for her. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	She had Ace stay as she put on her coat. "And he'll think it's time for walks." She smiled at the kiss before following him and closing the door behind her. "Thank you. I don't feel it today but I'll take your word for it." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He set his arm around her as they walked for the car. "If you feel up to it we could always go shopping afterwards. Or we could just go home and I could pamper you some?" he suggested, opening the car door for her. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I don't want to, but I need to. Especially if I want to look presentable for Rose's wedding." With a smile she slid into the car and buckled up. "And some more books, because I love you but I have no idea what yours say, except that law is complicated. But I'm still glad I took the semester off, even with having little to do."

	"We'll do it then," he said, slipping into the driver's seat. "I love my law books too, but I wouldn't necessarily read them for leisure." That he reserved for Mr Stephen King. The drive to the doctor's was uneventful and they even managed to get a good parking spot. "Here we go," he said with a grin. "Are you hoping for a specific birth gender?"

	"Yeah turns out thrillers make my dreams really interesting. So I switched to law books then realized it's very much not for me. So more books it is." She got out once they were parked, "not really. Whatever gender it is, my hopes it will take over the world and be a just overlord." She smirked and set her hand over her stomach. "And a happy one. That's all." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Victor chuckled as he locked the car and went to walk beside her. "When they are overlord, they can define what happiness means," he winked. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	She nodded and took his hand, "this is true. And we'll just instill them with the knowledge that as parents we get, like, Switzerland or something. Or maybe a continent. We should start deciding which one we're partial too. I think I've promised Jamie Italy." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"I'd have to look a few things up before I knew for sure which one I'd want," he said, lifting her hand to his lips so he could kiss it. They made their wait into the waiting room and Victor gave their name. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	She chuckled and went to take a seat as they waited. "You're so accommodating in my desires for the baby to rule the world. But do you have any preferences? It is okay to have them." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sciomachy 2013-10-02 03:13 am UTC (link)
	"Hey, I'm nothing if not supportive," he grinned at her. "I don't think I have a preference. It would be really great to have a son, but I feel the same way about a daughter. And we can make sure they know they don't have to conform to gender roles so really...I'm happy with whatever happens," he said, and he really meant it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"You have no idea how much that means to me, which I'm sure you hear a lot. I'm still glad twins don't run in the family though. I'm pretty sure that would freak me out even more." Smiling she set her head on his shoulder. "I'm not sure how world domination turned to it, but have you heard from Michael?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sciomachy 2013-10-02 03:24 am UTC (link)
	"It means a lot to me too," he said with a smile. "Wow, twins. That'd be...a lot." He didn't think he was ready for two babies at once, but if it happened, it happened. "Yes, I spoke to him the other day. I pointed him in Thomas' direction since he was feeling uneasy. We still have a lot to talk through, but we'll be okay." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	She nodded, "well thank goodness it's only one heartbeat. I think I can handle one baby. Although I'm seriously hoping it'll take after me and not the tall people in the room." She smiled, "good, I'm happy." She didn't want him to lose a friend over the entire debacle. She looked up as the nurse waved them through and rose. "That'll be us."

	Victor laughed at that and he patted her shoulder. "Yes, let's hope the tall genes are recessive." He rose when they were called, and placed a hand on her lower back as they stepped into the exam room. He greeted the doctor with a smile. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Or kick in around puberty, and not while I need my vital organs." She smiled to the doctor, and sighed at the gown. "Leaps and leaps of medical progress, still crappy gowns." She took it and went behind the screen to change before climbing onto the table and making a face. "Also not pleasant." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sciomachy 2013-10-02 03:57 am UTC (link)
	"I'm here with you," Victor said softly, standing by her shoulder. He didn't imagine climbing up on a table and exposing her bits was nice at all. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	She smiled at him, "And I appreciate it." IT was nice to have company while going under the general check up. Once that was over she shivered to the gel for the sonogram and took a breath. "Little nervous all of a sudden. I don't know why." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	sciomachy 2013-10-02 04:07 am UTC (link)
	Victor reached out and placed a hand on her shoulder. "It's going to be fine," he assured her. He was nervous as well, but at least he could focus on calming her down. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	shades_of_fate 2013-10-02 04:13 am UTC (link)
	She was sure that without him, she'd be a mess. Gratefully she took his hand as the doctor brought up the sonogram. Seeing the baby always made her heart skip a little and when asked if they wanted to know, she nodded. When he told her it would be a girl she gave a grin. She would have been happy with anything, but knowing was still fairly amazing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Victor's jaw dropped when the doctor told them the baby was a girl, and it took several moments for him to come back to himself. "A little girl," he whispered and then he leaned in to kiss Kat. "A little Deirdre!" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	shades_of_fate 2013-10-02 04:21 am UTC (link)
	She laughed and returned the kiss. I was a little stunning and once the gel was off her skin she set her hand on her stomach. "Yeah. It's pretty awesome." She was happy and couldn't stop smiling. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"It's...incredible," he said and then he smiled widely at the doctor. "Thank you so much! Oh gosh. I'm going to turn red." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	shades_of_fate 2013-10-02 04:53 am UTC (link)
	The doctor laughed and waved the thanks away before letting the two have some privacy. Grinning Kat went to kiss Victor before looking to her stomach. "This is so cool." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
