My - friend Sylvain is also a breeder, although the term is... awkward to use in such a way. [But that's a lot of complicated stuff Zuke doesn't need to know just yet.] We do not understand that aspect yet ourselves...

[They will... probably get to it.]

[But as Zuke pats that carrier, it naturally draws Dimitri's eye, and he pauses.]

Zuke, is your... egg all right?

[zukeini]

Yeah, uh, no need to say much else on that then.

[He made an awkward yet reassuring smile, placing his free hand up.

That sounded wrong.

These two were grown men and Dimitri was right, that was weird.]

Regardless, being a parent? Kinda? Not a bad gig when it's only partially true.

[Still though, he then turned to look at the carrier. Suddenly, when Dimitri said something, it got him to be alert with a fire in his ass.

Sure enough, the dancing around got really ferocious all of the sudden.]

--Yo! Hey! Hey hey!! I think it's happening! Oh jeez, we're ready!

[WHOEVER WAS IN THE EGG WAS REALLY BANGING ON THE SHELL, IT STARTED CRACKING LIKE WILD.]

[nastyboy]

[OH BOY, OH BOY- Dimitri has to put the Pokegear down against something so that he doesn't grip too hard and break it. And, honestly? He needs to do something with his hands, even if it's just digging his fingers into his pants.]

Make sure to have the blanket on hand!

[zukeini]

Yeah-! Yeah, woo! I got it!

[Zuke did, and despite his initial shock he was just now into the zone. Pfff, he got this. He got this. It was babies. Babies being born. Easy stuff. It’s not a human. He gestures to his Thwackey, old Terbangan.]

Hand me the blanket! The baby blanket!

[He opened the carrier to let the egg out just as a tiny pink arm fought its way through the egg.

It was seconds. The baby Pokemon flung the top of the egg off her and soon she was staring into Zuke’s little eyes.]
