a birth thread for these chaos gremlins

Celeste

Being as out of it as she was, Celeste still lifted her head as she heard the approach of Ulmaria and Zoey. A weak smile graced her lips as the two girls offered help in their own ways. “Some water might be nice,” her voice is tender as she turns her attention back to the three little wiggling beans at her belly. Letting out a sigh of relief as she closes her eyes for a moment, she would have dozed off if it wasn’t for Oki attempting to fit his large bum in her hidey hole.

Concern broke out over her expression as she half-smiled, half-frowned at him. She was excited to show him their babies, but also worried that Cy was doing okay too. “They still need names,” Cel said softly as she continued to stare at him a moment longer. “Is she okay? Are her pups okay?” She couldn’t hold back any longer, she had to know if their half-siblings had made it out alive. “We can send Ulmaria or Zoey over to keep her company or you can, whatever is easiest,” her jaw clenches as she nudges her own pups once more to ensure they were still alive too.
