Obviously, a lot of you guys are expecting new updates and for the lack of updates Nora and I sincerely apologize. HOWEVER, we both have lives outside of tumblr and we want this to be something we enjoy and not get anxious every time we log on.
WE. ARE. NOT. SHUTTING. DOWN. THE. BLOG.
We are also thankful and appreciate that you guys are so patient with us. Life is stressful. We’re both working college students and have majors that often require our utmost attention.
As our followers, you guys probably noticed that we don’t half ass our answers. We try to be as detailed and accurate as possible and pride ourselves on that. It is because of this that it takes forever to update. We easily spend up to four hours on ONE ASK. This s just through discussing the characters, analyzing them, REASERACHING TO MAKE SURE WE ARE RIGHT (both through the wiki and through some of the bigger blogs on tumblr).
No worries though, with the summer approaching and assignments dwindling, we’ll be able to crank out more asks more often.
TL;DR- We’re sorry, we love you, be patient, we’re working on it.
Children have such impressionable minds, and they just say the darndest things sometimes don’t they? Especially when it has to do with the body... Let’s see what their parents have to say. Starting with Skrublet and the Farmer (Yuma). (Yes more future stories!)
“Okay Piglets. Carpet time. You get cartoons for one hour.” He sighed as his two children plopped down on the carpet with their individual stuffed animals and juice boxes. Standing back and admiring his work, he smiled. Maggie, his youngest, was currently napping. He had her fed and changed with little no effort. She was such an easy baby. Now that left his two and three year old to deal with. Nora was also napping. He had laid Maggie in the cradle in their room knowing that once one kid was napping, Nora was sure to follow soon after. This was just the way it was, especially since she was pregnant with twins now. Yuma had to admit that she had to be pretty strong. Her fourth pregnancy and now twins. Yuma was the proudest Dad on the block. Now he was sat on the sofa and watching the same cartoon for the God-Only-Knows how many time. And he couldn’t be more content. Lily clutched her bear in her arms as she looked back up at him from her place on the carpet. Gunnar was laying on his stomach on his large duck. He smiled at her and she grinned back up at him. She stood up and moved to the Sofa with Yuma, curling into his side. He was used to this by now as Lily was a sporadic cuddler. Gunnar looked back, noticing the absence of his sister and, always the jealous one, he climbed up and into Yuma’s other side. Now he had Lily’s heat radiating and Gunnar’s chill slowly seeping into either side of him. Yuma was almost asleep when he all of a sudden heard.
“Papa. I has a question.” Lily looked up at him with big indigo eyes. Oh God. Here she goes. She was just like her Mama. She always had ten thousand questions Yuma never had the answer too.
“Okay. Go ahead.” He sighed, Gunnar looking up at him with brown eyes.
“What’s a…” Her face scrunched up as she tried to pronounce the word correctly, “B-Blow Job?”
Yuma choked on his own spit and had to cough for a second.
“Where the hell did you hear that?!” He asked quickly.
“I answer Papa?” Gunnar looked up at him. Oh, Holy Hell…
“Go ahead. Explain it to you sister.” Lily looked at her brother.
“Now tell me, Lily. Where did you hear that?” Yuma said, serious but much more calm.
“Uncle Shuu was talking to Aunt Raia about it. It sounded fun! I like bubbles!”
“Hey Papa. Now I has a question.” Gunnar looked up at him. His son couldn’t possibly be that bad.
“Sure. Go ahead.”
Gunnar looked so focused as he stared Yuma dead in the eye and asked,
“How did Mama get pregnant again? You said she was done after Maggie.”
How…? What?!
“Uncle Kou was talking about it last time we visited Uncle Ruki.” Lily put in and nodded quickly.
“Yeah! How, Papa?! How?!” She bounced a bit. Yuma’s face dropped, defeated. Thinking quickly he grinned as he came up with a more or less true story about their newest siblings.
“Your Mama and I talked one day and decided that we wanted to have more kids. So we went out into the garden and I planted baby seeds into her and now they’re growing into babies in her belly.” Mesmerized his children smiled.
“Okay Papa!” Gunnar said, settling back into the sofa and Lily nodded quickly. As soon as they were asleep and all crises were averted Yuma felt two arms wrap around his neck from behind.
“Baby seeds huh? Nice euphemism for Sperm.” Nora laughed in his ear.
Yuma huffed as he picked up his two kids and moved to carry them to their rooms for a nap.
“It was all I had, Sow. Now watch them while I kill a NEET and an Idol.”
Here’s yet another future story this time with our beloved skrublet (Nora) and Yuma. Feel free to ask us about our future children! Enjoy!!
Yuma sighed as he walked upstairs. This was Nora’s third banana split this week and the weirdest thing was that she ate ALL of it. Even the banana. But Yuma just got his wife her snack. He opened the door to their shared room he found her knocked out on their bed. That had been weird too. She was sleeping just as much as Shuu recently. Yuma sighed. He put the treat in the freezer and went to take a shower. Ruki was visiting later and he wanted to look at least half decent. When he woke up he found the bed empty. Still clad in only a towel, he walked down to the kitchen to find Nora sitting on the countertop enjoying her ice cream. Her eyes lit up when she saw him.
“Mmmm...You make the best banana splits.” She moaned, some chocolate sauce dribbling down her lip.
“Yeah, yeah. What’s with you and the bananas recently? You never liked them before.”
“I don’t know.” She said with her mouthful before swallowing, “But I just really want banana splits!” She smiled and hopped down before hugging him and snuggling into his chest.
“You smell nice~” Yuma blushed as he wrapped his arms around her as well.
“Geez. Still the same sow after all that’s happened.”
She giggled, “I’m gonna go put on a dress before Ruki shows up. Look like a true housewife!” She skipped off, having left her bowl in the sink and consumed all of her frozen confection. Yuma just sighed and grabbed some sugar cubes out of the jar on the counter before going to get dressed. That night as Nora was happily dancing around the kitchen putting the finishing touches on their dinner and Yuma watched light heartedly, helping out where he could, the doorbell rang.
Yuma quickly greeted his brother and ushered him into the kitchen where he was greeted by Nora and a huge hug.
“Hiya Ruki~ The chicken’s almost done.” She said, spinning around to go and check the oven. Ruki sniffed the air, not because Nora’s chicken smelled like a dream. No. There was something off about Nora’s scent.
“Yuma. Can I see you in the living room?” Yuma looked at his older brother and shrugged before making sure Nora had the rest of dinner covered. Once out of Nora’s hearing range Ruki strictly told Yuma.
“Has anything been off about Nora recently?”
“Hah? Off? Not really.”
“No strange habits?”
“Well she’s been eating banana splits like she’s never seen one and she’s been really tired lately. That’s about it.”
“Yuma. Have you noticed a change in her smell?”
“Yeah but it always smells like that when it’s time for her cycle.”
“No. It’s not that. Her scent is stronger but it’s mixed with something else.”
“What are you saying?” Yuma was getting irritated. Ruki had been here less than thirty minutes and had already started calling out his wife.
“It’s a new scent. But it’s so blended with hers I can’t tell what it is. Yuma, is it possible that she’s pregnant?”
“HAH?! WHY THE HELL-” Yuma’s eyes widened immensely. Nora heard her husband shout and ran to the living room.
“Is everything okay?!” She asked quickly.
“Yes.” Both boys replied in unison as she eased her way back into the kitchen. Realizing that she wasn’t welcome here at the moment.
Later that night, Yuma was still thinking about what Ruki said. He didn’t bring it up again but was still considering that his older brother may be right. He climbed into bed after turning out the light. Nora was facing away from him, already sleeping. He placed a hand on her stomach, no swelling. He sniffed her neck. Ruki was right. That was his wife but there was something else too. He buried his face in her neck at this point. It was his scent also...But there was something else. A sweet, warm, earthy smell that was new altogether.
Nora twitched in her sleep and rolled over to face him before opening her eyes.
“Hey Yuma.” She blinked slowly and smiled lazily.
“Nora, we need to talk about something.”
That woke her up.
“What’s wrong?”
“I think you’re pregnant.”
Her eyes widened before she pouted.
“Damn it! I was waiting to find a good time to tell you!” Now it was Yuma’s turn to be shocked. She turned on the bedside lamp and shuffled through the drawer of the night table.
“I took it yesterday. I had a weird suspicion after I started craving bananas and could eat them without gagging.” She smiled as she handed him the pregnancy test, ecstatic about the news. Yuma sat up in bed and cradled the little stick in his hand. It was positive. She was pregnant. HOLY SHIT THEY WERE GOING TO BE PARENTS.
The smile that lit up Yuma’s face was the same one from his wedding day. He pulled her into a tight bear hug.
