'Life is life,' he says, after Eli’s pregnancy is officially confirmed to the crew by Young. 'Even if it is Rush’s spawn.' )
You just made my day. Of course, most of it was filled with inhouse campus group issues and Marx/Rousseau comparison papers, but this is gorgeous?
A question. How long do you think until there becomes an issue with Park getting pregnant? There's no way they grabbed a crate of condoms on their way off of Icarus base.

I don't know, but the way she's going, I don't doubt that it would be soon.
I'm so pleased you liked it! There's about 400 words of the next half, and so far it's pure, unadulterated schmoop. Hopefully it works. :)

Oh, BTW, the bit about the pants, and barely being able to close them? Brilliant. Just brilliant.

Thanks! I'm gonna feel really sorry for Eli when nothing fits and everything just... hangs out. What she probably wouldn't give for a pair of pregnancy jeans with the elastic band. Poor dear.

I'd definitely miss pants.

And yes, Eli in a muumuu would be hilarious. Of course, Greer with wanting to touch the baby when it kicks would also be interesting--I liked how you integrated him into the story.

Thanks! Greer is such an interesting character. He's so closed off, but I'm sure there's a soft side to him, it just needs to be brought out in the right way. Perhaps that way is through a child? *wiggles eyebrow*

Indeed, blessed be the wikis.

Rush is so difficult, because you don't want to make him a complete unlikable ass, but then you don't want to make him too soft, because then you've lost the characterization completely. The first bit of the second half is schmoop, but I've thrown in just the tiniest bit of a possessive streak over Eli and the baby... we'll have to see how that plays.
