WHO: Gretchen Watkins & Delaney Twilfitt
WHAT: Delaney needs to talk. Gretchen happens to be nearby.
WHERE: Diagon
WHEN: Monday afternoon
WARNINGS/RATING/STATUS: None this time, I promise! Just talk of babies and emotions and girly shit like that/PG13?/Ongoing

Gretchen wasn't exactly sure how it'd come to pass that she was picking up lunch for Trevor, but sure enough, here she was, paying for two meals from the Happy Squid and taking them back to a likely ungrateful partner. Thanking man behind the counter, she snagged the bag of food and took an appreciative sniff as she walked outside, her stomach rumbling slightly.

She was hungrier than she'd thought, which sort of made sense, given that she'd foregone any sort of breakfast meal in favour of spending another hour in bed with Trevor. Not that it had been a bad trade off, mind. The fact remained, however, that this food was going to be greatly appreciated.

Strolling past Delaney's store, Gretchen glanced in idly, still slightly uncomfortable with the fact that both she and Trevor had slept with the woman, on completely separate occasions. She was certain it was a first, she didn't generally sleep with women and she would bet all her gold that Trevor had never shagged a bloke. Given her inclinations, a certain level of crossover was to be expected, but she still found it odd.

Oddness filling her head, Gretchen didn't see Delaney walking towards her until it was too late. The other woman had spotted her and Gretch raised a hand in greeting.

Gretchen had instinctively sat when Delaney did and instantly regretted it. What was it about her that invited people to confess that they were pregnant? Granted, the other person who'd done so had really been looking for Trevor, but she didn't think there was anything about her that screamed tell me about your reproductive plans.

"It's not mine," Gretchen quipped, shrugging. She waited a moment, then leaned back on the bench. "Do you need a potion or something? I've got some back at the house." Gretch was always extremely careful when she had sex with people, yet even she had had times where things had gotten out of hand and she hadn't been as wise as she should have been. Still, it was easily fixed, and she always made sure she had potions readily available.

	It's not mine. Well, that was helpful. It wasn't Maeve's, either. "No, no potions necessary. I went to a Healer, I have all the potions I need. I just… I just needed someone to talk to. And I guess I thought you and I got along okay." Well, either Gretchen would laugh, get up and walk away, or else she would let Delaney spill. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	As much as the woman might have been trying not to sound bored and disinterested, she wasn't doing a very good job. Delaney winced a little. "Three," she said after a pause. "I've been with three blokes in the time period in question." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Three. Still, Gretchen couldn't judge. It'd be hypocritical of her and she may have been many things, but hypocritical was not one of them. "Are you going to tell them?" she asked, then before she could stop herself, more out of an innate need for information and less fuelled by a desire to actually know more about Delaney herself, continued: "Who?"

	As Delaney listed the potential fathers, Gretchen barely had time to react to Caine's name before Trev was mentioned and Gretchen choked, letting out a little, involuntary gasp and staring across the bench. She'd known that Trevor had shagged Delaney, but now he was being listed as a potential father?! Hadn't she taught him better than that? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
