Summary: For spn_j2_bigbang. It's been five years since Jared Padalecki had his daughter, Eve thanks to a little miracle from an Egyptian fertility god. Now he and his partner, Jensen Ackles are raising her together in San Francisco, along with her other father, Chad Michael Murray; and everything seems to be moving along fine. Jared's working as a college art professor, and Jensen is still at Grace's Heart hospital, a resident OB-GYN. But when Jared decides to try for miracle number two, it seems to stir up some rough waters for everyone around him. Is this a blessing in disguise, or has Jared really set off a curse this time?

First, I have to acknowledge causeways and rejeneration for all the hard work they did helping me with the Seahorse last year. Without them, this wouldn't be here. I know both of you are doing amazing things right now!
dark_reaction stepped in to do a massive, massive beta in very little time and I owe her so much for how thorough and whip-smart she is, while multitasking with her own work and art. I love you dearly, Lauren.
loony_moony also stepped in to read over this MONSTER and helped me talk out a lot of the issues I was having. She's always there to make me smile and make little seapony noises at me and I'm going to sap out on her later when we toast to this damn thing so just, THANK YOU, MOONSDY.
wendy is responsible for this whole damn thing. I hope you all know this. She prompted me, made happy noises at me, and adopted a seapony from me at Wincon. So I really only care if she likes this. (KIDDING!)
ignited is going to mock me because I'm going to CRY writing this up. She is an amazing talented writer and artist, and she is the sweetest person in the known universe at the same time. There's a reason when she leaves a room, everyone has to hug her for an hour. It's always a pleasure to work with a talent like her, and it's even better when I can call her my friend. Love you, Stef. ♥
regala_electra knows what she did.
