==== A Few months in the future, but not many
Sollux slides the shirt over his swollen stomach and growls frustrated as it fails to cover the large bump.
Kanaya smiles "It appears you've outgrown your current clothing.".
Sollux hisses, glaring at himself in the mirror "My clotheth uthed two be baggy.".
She smiles "I can make you better fitting clothes.".
"Can you jutht make my clotheth bigger?".
"Well I was thinking of designing something more comfortable. Maybe more flow, and some color.".
"I am not wearing a dreth.".
"But it would be far more comfortable.".
"Fuck no. Nothing about thith ith comfortable. I think I'll be fine.".
"I will not allow my ward to walk around in such uncomfortable, shabby clothing. A mother to be must be fashionable.".
"Oh Gog no. Pleathe no."
She unfurls her measuring tape and begins using it, wraping it around him and jotting down the numbers and rough sketches in a notebook.
He frowns "Can you pleathe jutht make my clotheth bigger?".
"I guess I could adjust your clothing as well."
"Thank you. And no dretheth."
She frowns"Fine. I'll just have to modify the designs I had in mind.".
He sighs relieved and Kanaya puts away the notebook and measuring tape.
"I shall return to my hive to start sewing. Perhaps Aradia could accompany me, I can ask her."
"You two better not be in cahooth, dethroying my clotheth and forthing me two wear dretheth."
She smiles "I suggest you don't tempt me.".
Then she walks out of the bedroom "There is some salad in the fridge."
"Bluh."
"Now dear, I don't want to hear any complaints."
"But KN. Thalad?"
"You want the child to be healthy, correct?".
He sighs "Fine. I'll eat the thupid thalad.".
"Thank you.". Then looks at his face with a slight frown "You're eyes are so bruised-looking, you haven't been sleeping well?"
He looks away and mumbles.
"What?"
He sighs and snaps "I can't fit intwo my recuperacoon! I have two thleep in that human bed now."
She smiles "Then why don't you get some sleep while we're gone.".
Then she walks out of the room "Goodbye dear.".
He walks out after her slowly "Bye." and waves to her and Aradia.
Aradia smiles "We'll be right back."
He nods and lays on the couch tiredly, listening to them leave.
Sollux sighs and begins to fall asleep, slowly nodding off. Then Eridan bursts into the livingroom zealously "I havve returned my matesprit.".
He wakes with a start then lazily turns and glares at him, unmoving. Eridan looks at him, slightly surprised "wwoww Sol, you really let yourself go." And gestures to his stomach.
Sollux frowns "well excuth me for having a growing fucking life form in my body!" Then rolls over, facing the opposite side of the couch. Eridan walks over "don't wworry I still think you look attractivve... evven if you are a heavvy lowwblood." Then smirks.
Sollux ignores him and he frowns "sol?" Then gets down on the ground next to him "Sollllll.". He begins to get worried "sol? Solllllllll? Don't ignore me... please? Sol? Oh cod I'm sorry already!" Then face plants into the couch beside him.
Sollux turns around and he looks up "get out of here athhole.".
He sighs "wwell that's rude, I just apologized."
"I don't care. I will call Kanaya if you don't leave right now.".
He stands "fine. Only because I'm not supposed to let you get stressed."
Then turns to leave "Eridan don't go!"he turns around surprised and Sollux looks at him pleadingly "pleath don't leave. I need your help.".
He looks at him shocked "wwhat?" And Sollux gives him puppy eyes "pleathhhh.".
His face blushes a light purple "wwell... fine I guess. Just because you're carryin my wwriggler.".
Sollux smiles and puts out his arms "Eridan will you carry me two my room?" "Wwhat wwhy?"
"Becauth I'm tired.".
He sighs "you're five months pregnant. I don't think I can glubin carry you."
Sollux looks at him pleadingly "pleath, my printh.".
He frowns, blushing hard "fine.". Then slowly lifts him up, struggling. He takes him in his arms, struggling still "Cod, you're startin to get heavvy Sol."
Sollux's eyes flash then his hand whips out and slaps his face hard.
"Oww Wwhat wwas that for?!"
"You called me fat again fithdick. Get your dithguthting handth off of me."
"You wwanted me to pick you up!".
He squirms "thut up and put me down."
Eridan glares at him, confused "I you wweren't carryin my offspring I'd drop you."
"I'm surprised you haven't dropped me yet, then. Now put me down nithly.".
He sighs, irritated and sets him on the couch.
Then Sollux smiles "Thank you.".
He looks at him for a long moment then turns around "graawwr! Make up your damn glubin mind already!".
He frowns, confused "did I upthet you? I'm thorry.".
He stares at him blankly "wwhy the fuck are you actin so wweird! I knoww you're bipolar or wwhatevver but seriously?".
Sollux frowns, puzzled "calm down, you could hurt feelingth if you thay thingth like that.".
"Sol you're glubin scarin me."
"Come thit next two me and we can figure thith out together." And he beams cheerfully and pats the couch beside him
. Eridan stares at him for a long moment then sighs and sits down "better not hit me again."
"Of courth not.". Then Sollux scoots closer to him and lays his head on him.
"wwhat are you doin?"
"Thnuggling."
"Wwhy?"
"Becauth I want two be cloth two you.".
Eridan looks at him confused "this is so wweird."
He snuggles closer and kisses his cheek.
Eridan blushes hard "wwha... wwhat?"
And Sollux peeks up at him "you're tho cute when you bluth.".
He smiles a little and puts his arm around him slowly "I wwouldn't mind you bein like this normally.".
Sollux laughs and hugs him.
They stay like that for a moment then Sollux's grasp stiffens and loosens a little.
"hey Sol, tell me wwhat you said earlier...about me bein a prince.".
Then his arm lashes out quickly and punches him in the stomach "get your handth off of me!".
Eridan falls over, then off the couch "owwww.".
Sollux stands and glares at him "I thought I told you two leave athhole!".
"Then you told me stay!"
"Well now I'm saying you better get your ath out of here before I rip off your fucking bulge.".
"I like the other you better."
His eyes narrow then his foot flies forward, kicking him squarely in the crotch.
Eridan yelps and curls up "wweh. Sol wwhy?"
Then the door opens and Aradia and Kanaya walk in "We're back.". They stop and stare at him on the ground.
Kanaya steps toward Sollux, worried "What happened, did he attack you?"
"No he juth detherved it.".
Eridan looks up, still in pain "There's somethin wwrong wwith him. First he's nice then he acts like a douche and beats me up."
"Thut up fithdick!".
Kanaya frowns at him "Eridan you already know he's hormonal.".
Then suddenly Sollux blinks and looks at him upset "are you okay?! I'm tho thorry!" Then slowly kneels down next to him.
Eridan scoots away "not again!"
And Sollux looks at him worried, then notices them "hello Aradia, hello Kanaya. I didn't mean two hurt him. I'm tho thorry Eridan!". They look at him confused. Then he stands and hugs Aradia " I'm tho glad you're back. I mithed you tho much AA.".
Aradia hugs him back "yeah... I missed you to.".
Then Sollux stops and turns from her and kicks him hard again "Thupid fithdick!". He looks at her "AA did you bring food?" And she shakes her head. "I theriouthly have two go hungry after all I've fucking done?!" Then he angrily walks back to the couch and curls up "Fuck.".
She looks at him startled and Kanaya nods thoughtfully "It seems that the hormonal imbalance from his pregnancy has intensified his Bipolar Disorder.".
"Fuck you Kanaya! You don't know me!" And Kanaya rolls her eyes and smiles.
Eridan stands "Is he goin to be like this the entire time?".
Sollux throws a pillow at him "thut up! Thith ith none of your buthineth!" And glares at them.
"I'm just tryin to be there for my wwriggler evven though your fuckin crazy!".
Then he snuffles "You all are tho nith, being there for me..." then he bursts into tears "I'm tho thorry!". Aradia smiles then sits down next to him and hugs him
"It's okay, I know. Come on, let's go take you to bed, would you like that?".
Eridan watches confused. "Wwhat?".
Kanaya glares at him "Here's a warning; this is just the begining. If you truly want to be the father then you need to adjust to this behavior. ". Then she walks away into Sollux's bedroom.
Now before we go any further we HAVE to cover some things. This whole fic is going off of the headcanon that trolls are fully working hermaphrodites, gender being identified by outward appearance (Breasts, ect.) and genes. So during sex the tentabulges wrap around one another (as widely accepted for troll sex) THEN slide into a horizontal opening beneath their partner's bulge (called the nook: because they nook was never canon and certain as the ass, that was just widely assumed. That's why Karkat called people nooksuckers which was referencing the 69 position, ha ha, get it? makes more sense then ass sucker doesn't it?) This pouch holds their partner's gene slurry where it will not ferment or become impure untill it is time for pailing. The pouch is a dormant vagina which trolls have evolved past the need for (just like breasts and nipples). Being a superior alien species their young, hormonal bodies sensed a lack of Imperial Drones or the Mother Grub during pailing season they're bodies went into an emergency state in which they became hypersensitive to foreign gene slurry and hormones such as - were pumped into their dormant organs. This made them highly susceptible for impregnation, a final emergency plan to garentee their species continuation. See? I put allot of thought into this in an attempt to make it possible while following strict canon basic. Hopefully it's a little less stupid and impossible this means Sollux will be able to have a natural birth, it will just hurt as all unholy hell. Also Sollux was running around with everyone because it was pailing season and his hormones were making him extremely aroused with a high sex drive...but also because he's a slut.
wow, super short chapter, sorry. but hey, two chapters in a day. ;)
