"Welp — looks like I'm going to be going back to hacking for several months," Daisy announced without preamble as she walked into the kitchen.

FitzSimmons looked over as one from where they were making their tea, and Simmons asked, "What'd you do to piss off Coulson so badly that he won't let you in the field any more? Especially for that long."

"Oh, no!" Daisy laughed, shaking her head as she walked over to them. "This has absolutely nothing to do with Coulson. And it's not starting immediately, but down the road in a few months, when I'll be out for a few months before I return to the field again."

"We love you girlfriend, but could you be a little more cryptic?" Fitz said with a roll of his eyes. "We were almost able to make some kind of sense of that and have any clue what you're talking about."

As Simmons slapped her husband on the chest with the back of her hand, Daisy stuck her tongue out at her boyfriend and said to him, "You know, this is all your fault."

"No, I really don't know, because you haven't told us anything yet," Fitz retorted sarcastically.

Daisy let out a playful huff, before sighing over-dramatically, "Okay, fine! You've twisted my arm, I'll tell you — I'm pregnant."

As Fitz's eyes widened in shock, Simmons successfully held in her own slightly lesser surprise (as she'd begun to guess that must be what Daisy was talking about, as it was the only thing to logically fit) well enough to deadpan, "Buried the lede there a bit, didn't you?" Then in a normal voice with a smile she continued on, "Congratulations, though, seriously — even if you are messing up our plan. I was supposed to be the baby-making one when we did eventually decide to have a kid, so that you could remain in the field the whole time. And we haven't even married you yet."

"Yeah, I'm definitely going to miss the field while I'm out," Daisy sighed wistfully.

But before any of them could say anything more and express the flip side, their joy that Daisy had a new human growing inside of her that they would be bringing into the world, a low level agent who was on the other side of the kitchen and had overheard FitzSkimmons' conversation, said, "Then why don't you just abort it if you don't want it? Then you can stay in the field, Captain Johnson — win, win."

FitzSkimmons turned as one, and simultaneously shouted in righteous anger. "Murder a baby just because we weren't trying to have one yet!?" "Kill an innocent life just because it wasn't planned!?" "End a pre-born human's life just because I'm the 'wrong' mother!?"

The agent stared back at them in shock for several seconds, clearly not having been expecting to be yelled at for making such a vile, satanic, but common suggestion, before finally managing to get out, "What?", really not having understood what any of them had said as they had all three spoken at the same time, though getting the overall picture pretty clearly.

"You want us to murder a baby just because we weren't trying to have one yet!?" Simmons repeated angrily first.

"Kill an innocent life, just because it wasn't planned!?" Fitz followed.

"End a pre-born human's life just because I'm the 'wrong' mother!?" Daisy finished up, all three of them staring in disbelief and disgust at the agent.

After a second, Simmons growled on, "If any of us had the authority to fire you, you would be gone already — we don't want murderers in this organization."

"Especially not those that would murder the most innocent and defenseless amongst us," Fitz added. "This organization exists to protect people from evil, not commit evil itself."

"And I may still go ask Coulson to fire you," Daisy finished in a cold tone. "I'm sure he'd do it for me, for the three of us — he doesn't take lightly agents in his organization encouraging the cold-blooded murder of children, born or pre-born."

By this point the agent had started slowly backing out of the kitchen, still staring at the trouple until disappearing around the corner, leaving FitzSkimmons alone to continue discussing the new, unique human being who was currently growing inside of Daisy's body, and in several months would join the world.

"Now that that evil's gone, we were talking about you being out of the field and back to hacking desk duty the last while of your pregnancy and first bit after you give birth until you're ready for the field again," Simmons said. "Although with your super-fast healing Kree alien blood, you'll probably be ready to return to the field a lot faster than a normal woman."

"You know, I didn't even think about that," Daisy replied. "But I'll still be out for a while before I give birth to make sure no bad guys hurt our baby, or I don't do anything stupid on a mission to risk our child's health."

"We can get you a desk in our lab right next to ours so that you can work with us," Fitz said excitedly. "It'll be like the BUS days again."

"I'd love that, Fitzy," Daisy replied earnestly. "But before you get too excited, I'm not out of the field yet. Although I do need to start being more careful now that I'm aware that I'm carrying someone else with me and it's not just me anymore, and is there any way that you two can work on my catsuit to add some kind of protection or padding over my belly just to be on the safer side? Once I start showing at all the catsuit will probably be out entirely, and likely field duty period at that point, but until then it would be good."

"Of course!" Simmons answered brightly. "Anything to keep our daughter safe. But speaking of her, is she going to be inhuman like you? Because Fitz isn't inhuman."

"My dad wasn't inhuman, and I turned out to be one," Daisy answered. "So I'd assume it only has to be passed down through one parent. But that does beg the question of when we're going to give our kid fish oil or whatever the current thing is, to let her go through terrigenesis."

"Wouldn't it be best to do it really early, maybe even before she can remember and understand that she's even going through anything, so that she grows up her whole life with her powers?" Fitz suggested. "I mean, of course you'll be there Daisy to explain it all and teach her how to use her powers, and Jemma and I will be there to support her, but it still seems like it would be best if she always had her powers, instead of getting them later on like you did, and most people do."

"It's definitely a good thought, but we've got years, or certainly months, to decide that and figure out what the health risks are," Simmons replied. "What's more urgent is the fact that we haven't married Daisy yet. And I know we haven't talked about it, we've just been happily dating since you joined us, Daisy, but it's certainly what Fitz and I expected this to eventually become, and I hope you too, and it's even more relevant now."

"I honestly didn't really think about it much," Daisy answered truthfully. "I didn't know what your guys' thoughts were on it, and at the beginning it was too soon and then I was too scared to ask, and potentially ruin what we had, and recently it just hasn't been a concern of mine since I knew this was permanent regardless of the official label, as we have discussed that Jemma would be the biological mom while both of us were practical moms — or mum and mom to distinguish between us. But I'm all for officially marrying you two, and whenever's fine with me. I mean, before the baby comes, obviously, but when before then doesn't matter to me."

"Then we'll sit down and figure that out, too," Simmons said. "Because once again, we have some time. Obviously our wedding will be much sooner than terrigenesis, or our baby's birth, but it won't be next week, either, so we don't have to decide that now."

"No, but we probably should propose to her now," Fitz said. "Sure, it's not actually necessary, but there's no reason not to do it, either."

"Right you are, husband," Simmons replied, as at the same time Daisy mumbled, "Oh, you don't have to do that, we know we're getting married."

But FitzSimmons ignored this as they turned together to face their inhuman girlfriend, and said in perfect sync, "Will you marry us, Daisy Johnson?"

Daisy rolled her eyes as she replied, "Of course I will, my science dorks."

Simmons threw her arms around Daisy in a tight hug, and Fitz wrapped his arms around both of them.

"Then welcome, Daisy — and you too, our precious pre-born child — to the family."
