“Yes! Oh, and yes, seafood! I quite enjoy it, do you want some, Acharya?”
They nod at Vy’s suggestion
“What do you mean, you haven't seen any stars, any children?”
“There's no children. There hasn't been any for years. I'm the only one left. And my natural instinct hasn't kicked in yet to generate children. I have been busy…”
“What do you mean, you're the only one left? We had a mother, a nebula. I remember her. I also remember our siblings and.”
“They're all gone. I'm all that's left of our nebula.”
They looked at Fannar, giving the little child a small smile.
“Well, now you know there are two more.. if Fannar counts that is.”
Hayden kisses Vy gently on the cheek, letting the two talk going to get them all some food.
“It is.. even an extra family member.”
Rylan smiles then looks at the food, not quite sure, then noticing they had soup, which was one of the things his stomach found the easiest.
“I think I'd like some soup first, see how that goes.”
He takes River's hand for a bit, he knew this pregnancy was going to be hard, it was already hard, but he was happy he had made it to their wedding. River takes Rylan's hand on his and kisses it gently, smiling at him tenderly.
“Is he bothering you too much? Do you need me to give him an earful?”
“Yes he is annoying me by requiring more space.. Soup first, then see, I learned the hard way before. Then we'll see if he listens to his daddy or not.”
He brushes his hand against Rylan's cheek and then looks at his stomach.
“Hey, little one, how about you give mommy a break so he can eat some sweets and nice things?”
He kisses Rivers cheek and looks at him.
“I'll go get you soup, my love.”
He takes the plate, gently brushing Rylan's head before heading towards the buffet to get the soup for Rylan, smiling at Chris when he comes to get food for Hayle and himself.
