"Running out of time"... Thank you for supporting my work! Patreon.com/kimchicuddles

text reads:

Giving birth to daughters 15 years apart is kind of like time traveling...When my first was born, I was still highly ambitious in a way that felt like I never had enough time to accomplish everything I wanted to do in life...

But the birth of the second brought a strong visceral nostalgia and a deeper understanding of the mother Theresa quote: "If you want to change the world, go home and love your family"...

And now the only time that I care about running out of is the time I have left to love my kids.

mpreg but you give birth through your mouth and your jaw just expands so you lowkey turn into a hippo and can eat fruits in large bites and it becomes a societal hierarchy of who’s jaw can open larger

Train of thought about becoming a parent but also being a human

Ok so I had a baby and completely wasn't able to do anything creative while pregnant because my brain was not the main event for my body for a bit, and I couldn't take my adhd meds because they can negatively impact foetuses but holy heck did I miss them, and then when I had bebe she would not sleep so I became a shallow husk of a human, and now bebe is actually sleeping I have capacity again, and oh man I still miss my adhd meds but I can't take them as I'm breastfeeding and that apparently is also a big no no, and I finally am feeling like a person again but I still can't write although I am singing again finally, and just humaning is impossible when you're a milk machine for a small tiny just barely human so.

Looking forward to creativity seeping back into my life as I gradually gain some autonomy back tbh.

My beloved son, my beautiful darling boy, the light of my life, my everything. His smile lights up my soul. Never more have I glanced at such a beautiful lovely creature. He may be silly and wonky but he’s mine. I wouldn’t have my darling boy any other way 🥰🥰🥰🫶🫶🫶

I've had this AU idea bouncing around my head for a while but needed help fleshing out a few ideas

Y/N is an autoshop mechanic who had to take on the role of legal guardian for their two godsons Kirby and Kenny, after their dear friends (the boys' parents) died in a horrible accident.

While struggling to learn how to be a parent alongside mourning their friends Y/N finds themselves in need of a babysitter to watch the boys so they can pick up more work so money isn't so tight.

In come Sun and Moon, who are more than happy to take care of the boys and remind Y/N that parenting is hard, but they're doing great

Here's a drawing of a sleeping ref I found on Insta by @mellon-soup that grew into some new parent Drericka fluff. I wasn't able to find the pose on here, so I am reposting with credit.

There are not enough Mpreg Parent Akeshu fics

I must admit, I'm a bit disappointed.

it's not like there's zero. There are some, but not nearly enough or I'm not looking in the right tags.

There's especially HUGE missed potential that not enough people utilize.

I've seen wholesome Akiren as a parent. Seems everyone is in agreement he'd be the chillest, awesomest, father.

But what about Akechi?

Goro "I had a bad childhood, no father figure, Mom passed away when I was young leaving me to grow up in either Foster Homes or the closest living relatives the Social Worker could track down. Who took me in but didn't want me. so I grew up to mask my true nature by being polite on the outside and a celebrity to get some form of positive attention, and I tracked down my deadbeat father who I'm going to ruin the life and career of out of spite and vengeance, for me and my late Mother." Akechi.

The man has childhood baggage, who knows how many young children he's interacted with as an adult. So his experience would range from "limited" to "non existent"

If one of these boys wouldn't take to being a parent well immediately, it would be Akechi. Like, the man is having an external crisis, he's not okay.

"I am the LAST person that should be a father. Do I look like fatherly material to you? I can't even recall the last time I interacted or made eye contact with an infant. Maybe I never did! I can do research and read books, I'm good at researching, I'm going to read the books no matter what but that can only help so much. I know what not to do, from my childhood. I'm going to try my best to do the exact opposite of what Shido did, but no parent is perfect, I could still screw the kid up! Not to mention I'm still processing the fact that MY RIVAL HAS A FUCKING FULLY FUNCTIONING UTERUS.

I knocked up my Rival

I knocked up the man I once shot in the head

I knocked---holy hell what have I done?

I've never been interested in Women, so I never thought I'd have to worry about accidentally planting a little me inside someone. Do you realize how many women I have turned down?

So here I was, thinking I'd be safe. That obviously nothing would come from indulging in a night of passion with my frustrating, Idiotic sexy, alluring, Rival.

But once again, you are just full of surprises apparently in the internal organs sense too because you can carry children and now both of us are unironically FUCKED."

"I'm not going to force this on you, I just thought you deserved to know. If you don't want to we can--"

"Pfft, HAHAHAHA. You say that like it's an actual option. Do I need to remind you what my upbringing was like? I'm not repeating the same mistakes, I'm not leaving. Granted you are obviously in a better financial situation and have a proper support group unlike my Mother. But if I decide to leave now, or stay but run later down the line, what's stopping our child from living in a constant internal state of guilt and loneliness, which will eventually evolve into anger and spite and once they're of age to move out, make it their mission to hunt me down and enter a false work alliance so they can gain my trust enough to eventually betray and torture me. Or just flat out kill me. And You know what? I wouldn't blame them! I'd kill me too if I could. I can't let that happen, I refuse to put a child with my D.N.A. through what I went through. So we are moving in and getting married (oh my god, I have to move in and marry my Rival) Because that's what Japanese family laws all encourage. And I'm going to internally pray and wish that I don't somehow manage to fuck up an innocent being that belongs to us, even though I have no idea what I am doing. Did I mention I have zero experience with babies and children?"

Point is, parentGoro! Has so much potential and it should be a crime that there are so little fics exploring that.
