And? I don't see the big deal.

Ever so helpful, I see.

Ryou if you want helpful then elaborate as to why this is such a problem? She's a woman and judging from her news apparently a woman with a healthy sex drive/life and body.

I'm certain Atsushi is going to understand.

She doesn't want Atsushi, but doesn't mind getting pregnant again. Yeah, it'll make him feel wonderful.

She's flat out told you this to your face and it isn't just an assumption?

What do you suggest she do get rid of it? Are you going to be the one to tell her to kill it?

Atsushi's assumption, actually, he doesn't believe me that it's not true.

Oh yes, because I've suddenly turned into a baby killer.

I just want to know how to tell him, Bane, is that really so bad?

Maybe you should point out the bare facts for him. 2 parents. 2 children. Both parents probably wanted the set to themselves as it's usually how these things go, but to keep it fair and possibly less traumatic for the twins in questions with the arguments that probably spawned they most likely agreed to take one a piece.

After all, there was always the possibility of the other returning when they were of age.

Princess, in situations like these pussyfooting around it is only going to leave you a stressed mess. Just tell him and get it over with.

That doesn't sound heartless at all.

Sorry for asking.

It's practical if you're standing in the shoes of two people who were married but are divorcing and no longer love each other. Sometimes, romantic notions just don't cut it in the real world when you have the lives of yourself and others in your hands.

Was I not delicate enough? I'm sorry if I didn't give you some perfect solution to your problem, but I seriously believe delivering the blow swiftly and then dealing with the aftermath is a hell of a lot better than worrying yourself sick over the manner in which you deliver such news or the words you choose to use.

That's a completely and utterly selfish way of thinking, which I don't put past mom at all, but never mind that.

I guess so. Sort of. If he gets upset, can I blame you? I just don't want him to get hurt.

Actually, the only selfish part of the whole deal is in splitting the siblings, which really isn't that selfish if the usual visits/letters/keeping in touch transpires. From their pov they're each taking a child, thereby allowing them both to keep someone they love with them. In a normal family I am sure the other would be missed in rather large amounts but with the case of twins, at least, your mother/father has a reminder of the other within the face they see daily.

You can't force Atsushi into a bubble where he will never be hurt, Ryou. The most you can do is just be there when he is.

Can't really argue with you on the logic of that, but it still does not cover the emotional strain that's on the siblings when that happens. I might not be as strung up on it as Atsushi, but I still think it's terribly unfair they just separated us. might make it easier for mom and father, but not for us.

I know I can't. Doesn't mean I can't try and protect him a little though.
