veiwed him as <I>hers. </I>:: Please...::Were those tears in her eyes" Yup, sure were:: Anthen d' Elghinn: Anthen appeared....Yeah why not. He looked no where near her. You know, he had some pride. Drow, or not Drow" Would the kid be like him, or her" He sat down next to her, and offered his hand. But barely looked at her. Yep. For now. Knite: ::just keeps holing on to Moon even thought he heard bones snap :: Where is here Mate! :: yells a bit but keeps calm:: Kitty Onyxfire: ::she had wet a rag and used it to wipe Moon's face, her voice soothing: That's right. Just keep breathing. When it's time to push, your body will tell you. Moon Lyght: ::She took his hand, no hesitation there! She squeezed, glad he was near. She needed him after all. Another keeing cry as another contraction did it's work:: Anthen d' Elghinn: Half Hill Giant and Drow or not, that hurt. Kind of. He squeezed back, and stared his steel grey eyes at her. Knite: ::smiles at the other drow on Moons other side:: wait....it gets worst ::the drow looks at Kitty and just nods:: Moon Lyght: ::Her tail curled, and her wings tends, as she felt a new pressure. :He would find her eyes were already on him. There was pain in them, but she wouldn't turn away. She seemed to be drawing strength from his being there:: Moon Lyght: *tense Kitty Onyxfire: ::she was checking Moon's pulse, then just looked at Knite:: And now...we wait for her water to break....and then it's gonna be hectic. Anthen d' Elghinn: Okay, this was too long. Too annoying. He stood, gripping her hand. "Give birth to thing before I tare it out of you!!!" What a strange way to show affection!" He kissed her cheek, might as well be supportive. Knite: ::nods:: yep...hey at least it isn't a cluch of eggs....my mates had a tendency to give off a high piercing shreek that made me half deaf for days.. Moon Lyght: ::Manages a small smile, gritting her teeth and a soft " #$%^&* you dear" Then winces:: Kitty Onyxfire: ::the moredhel turned and pointed a clawed finger at Anthen:: A woman does not just give birth on demand! Now sit your overgrown butt down and wait it out like the rest of us. She's the one in pain here, not you. Moon Lyght: ::And she's only half dragon, and the father isn't dragon at all! This would be interesting:: Anthen d' Elghinn: "Tell that my hand!" He snapped to Kitty, looking to his....Well. Red hand. "This hurts!!! You have any idea how a Dragon's strength hurts"!" Knite: ::smiles: Now Kitty he is a first timer.. Kitty Onyxfire: Try shooting something the size of this...::puts her hands out to demonstrate the size of a baby:: out a hole the size of this...::and her hands go to the size of...well...yanno:: Moon Lyght: ::she eased up a bit, not trying to hurt him, but a contraction caused it to tighten back up, releasing a bit after *several* seconds:: Moon Lyght: Kitty! ah think tis about time...::gritting, it felt different, and she was sweating pretty hard, too:: Anthen d' Elghinn: &quot #$%^&* that, I'd do this - ah!" Anthen looked to Moon, "Sweet god, someone call a doctor! She broke my #$%^&* ng hand!" Well, you know. This was painful.... Kitty Onyxfire: ::grunts at the drow...he shouldn't do the crime if he's not prepared to do the time:: Kitty Onyxfire: ::she hands the wet cloth to Knite:: Keep her face wiped down.. Knite: ::the drow looks over at Anthen:: Yep looks like it hurts too::takes the rag from Kitty and wipes moons brow:: Moon Lyght: ::She couldnt wait, her body was screaming at her to push, and she wasn't going to argue, just as another contraction hit, she was bearing down:: Moon Lyght: ::A glance to Knite, to kitty as she relaxed a touch, then back to Anthen, trying so hard to be calm, and not to break his hand:: Kitty Onyxfire: ::she coached Moon in her breathing through the contraction:: Anthen d' Elghinn: "Someone kill me! This is too much!" Anthen winced, was his hand going to fall off"!!! Maybe, but it would be funny if it did! He looked to her and then smirked, "End this now before you break arm!!!" Moon Lyght: ::breathing helped, and soon she was totally silent, her eyes glazed as the draconic nature asserted itself, her body was releasing endorphines, and adrenaline, the time was to concentrate and she did, with nary a peep her eyes..slitted. like a dragon's might:: Kitty Onyxfire: ::looks at the drow:: You whine a lot for a drow. Moredhel men don't complain so much. They are strong and stoic during child birth. It's a time of joy among elves. Anthen d' Elghinn: "I am not Elf, nor Drow!" He snarled, "Do not compare to me to scum!" Shauri: Winced at Anthen's voice. "Someone please give him a sedative?" Knite: ::smiles at Kitty:: CKalb is pretty good about births.....::shrugs and wipes Moon's brow:: Although he does only have about 10 kids.. Moon Lyght: ::softly entranced, she could hear them:: Mah..mine...mah mate...::So softly, and then another push, almost there!:: Kitty Onyxfire: Well you still whine a lot...::totally nonplussed as she concentrated on helping Moon:: Here comes another one... Kitty Onyxfire: Puuuuuuuush! Keep pushing...c'mon....::coaching her along:: Anthen d' Elghinn: "Aaaah! Someone get me a #$%^&* ng beer! Or ale! Or something! Anything"!" Anthen clenched his eyes shut. Kitty Onyxfire: Aaaand breathe! Anthen d' Elghinn: Breathing. "Thank you." Moon Lyght: ::Pushes as coached, eyes no longer focused on anything really, totally concentrating on her task at hand:: Kitty Onyxfire: OK Moon...one more! Can you give me one more push' Deep breath....and...Puuuuuuuush! Knite: ::looks over at Anthen:: yeesh...::keeps blotting her forehead and holds her hands:: Anthen d' Elghinn: Hell, any medical drug that numbs pain would do. Moon Lyght: ::Folling directions without a hitch and soon the new arrival, the physiology was similar to Moons, but it was a greyish color, dark, rather with matted bone white hair, or, it would be once cleaned up:: Moon Lyght: *following Kitty Onyxfire: ::she wrapped the child up in a clean towel, wiping off the face before she gave it a little smack to it's bottom to start the crying/breathing process:: Kitty Onyxfire: It's ....a boy! Moon Lyght: ::And with that she fell back, her grip relaxing, tail dropping to the floor, wings flopping down as well, her breathing a bit heavy, but she seemed ok:: Knite: ::smiles:: congrates you two...its a boy.. Moon Lyght: ::And it was crying lustily! What a set of lungs on this one:: Anthen d' Elghinn: His eyes widen. Hell if she didn't faint, he did. For her. He's gone. Out cold on the floor. Moon Lyght: Ah boy...::And blinks as Anthen faints!:: Ah'll be buggered... Moon Lyght: Wake 'im up ::reaching for her new son:: Kitty Onyxfire: ::cleans off the baby a bit, quickly cutting the cord before resting him on Moon's belly:: Kitty Onyxfire: ::glances over at Anthen:: Wuss.. Anthen d' Elghinn: Is gone. Totally gone. x_x Knite: ::looks over at Anthen:: do we have too...he whines a lot...:walks over to Anthen and slaps him a bit:: Yo Wake up Moon Lyght: ::Ah, her son, she cuddled him close, noting how much he was colored like his father. No deneying paternity now. This child was most certainly his:: Kitty Onyxfire: ::gets a cup full of water...and dumps it on Anthen:: Anthen d' Elghinn: "Wtf"!" He leaned up, great! Grey hair all wet. "What"! Kitty Onyxfire: ::while Moon was busy with the baby, she concentrated on cleanup:: Moon...I'd suggest staying up here for at least twenty four hours. Understood" Moon Lyght: ::her tail brushed Anthen:: Ah've someone tae meet y'... Moon Lyght: ::nods:: aye Kitty Anthen d' Elghinn: Hell, he might as well be confused. He stood up, "What"!" Looking about. Moon Lyght: ::Crooning softly at the baby:: Yer son, Anthen... Knite: ::moves out of Moon and Anthen's way Kitty Onyxfire: ::she handed Knite a few things to help her clean up...and then she was moving again:: Anthen d' Elghinn: Son' Anthen's eyes widened, and he moved to her....And it. It' Okay. The child. The large half breed Drow then held Moon's shoulders, looking to the kid. "Is....Is he normal?" Moon Lyght: Well, thet depends on yer definition o' normal, now dinna it' But 'E's 'ealthy. Moon Lyght: ::He would have deserved it too!:: Anthen d' Elghinn: "....No, Moon. Is he <I>normal"</I>" Hense the the glare he gave her. Knite: ::helped Kitty :: Kitty Onyxfire: ::pauses in her cleanup duty to eye Anthen:: Normal is a matter of perspective in this town. ::her tail lashes angrily:: Moon Lyght: Aye, Anthen. 'E were conceived afore yer..incident. 'E's fine Anthen d' Elghinn: "Good." Anthen pulled back, and nodded several times. "Good..." He sat down on the floor. Moon Lyght: What shoul' 'is name be? ::gently::
