Sollux looks at Kanaya confused "Twinth...but...but how?! You mutht be wrong or thomething."
"No, I am most certain there are exactly two wigglers, in fact I can comfortably say I am completely positive."
Vriska snorts "Gog there's going to be two running around?"
"Wwould you shut your mouth Serket?"
Karkat stands up and leaves the room in a daze. "I UH NEED TO THINK..." and Sollux rolls his eyes.
Then he frowns, glancing at his stomach "Twinth...How haven't they killed each other in there yet?"
"I assume wigglers born of conception instead of production by the Mother Grub are more docile, having to coexist peacefully with their mother in order to survive."
"...And you're thure you can't thmell the blood color or thomething, now that ith-uh- they are bigger?"
She shakes her head "Unfortunately it is not possible for me, the scent is very fait compared to all other individuals and is clouded by the smell of your own blood, as well as the scent of those near you on a regular basis."
He sighs "Thath what I thought...how about you TZ?"
She giggles "As much as I would love to take in the delicious smell of your grubs I can't get past your own smell Mr. Appleberry."
Vriska stands "It's been fun, watching this freakahow and all but I'm gonna go. You coming Terezi?"
"Hold your hoofbeasts I want to say bye first."
She hugs Sollux and licks his face. He wrinkles his face in disgust and pushes her off, wiping off his face. "Bye Mr. Appleberry. Call when I can taste those delicious wigglers." and she grins mischievously.
"Ugh. Gog no TZ."
to"And tell Karkles I said bye."
and she follows Vriska out the door.
Nepeta sighs "I'm furry sorry to say this but AC purrobably has to go to, Equius will be wondfurring where she's at."
"Bye NP."
She hugs him and smiles "AC hopes to see Pallux soon. It would be furry mice."
"Yeah, yeah."
Kanaya stands "I believe it is beneficiary to Sollux currently, if we left him and his quadrent partners to their thoughts."
Jade frowns "Awww already?"
Rose nods "Yes I believe Kanaya's opinion is the best course of action, so let us leave them to their contemplation."
"Oh alright. Bye Sollux, it was really fun meeting you." She smiles.
"Yes, goodbye Mr. Captor. My matesprit and I will return in due time for psychological and physiological scrutinization."
"Yipee." he sighs.
Feferi hugs him "I gotta get going to, I've got dinner to krill."
"Alright...Bye FF."
Aradia smiles once the guests leave "So did ya have fun?"
"No."
"Oh come on, it wasn't a total disaster and we got some stuff for the twins."
"Yeah...twinth."
"I like it, it's more of an adventure than we expected. The more the marrier."
"Not for me."
"I know you like two of everything. Its great."
"Yeah thure. One wath bad enough. I'm going two have two take care of two grubth and I thtill have no idea what I'm doing."
Eridan wraps his arms around Sollux "Sol I'll be there for you."
"Great. Jutht when I thought thingth couldn't get worthe."
Aradia smiles "I'll clean up, you can go take a nap. Eridan if you want to stay start cleaning."
"Wwhat? I'm a royal blood not a maid!"
"Clean or get hit with a broom until you leave." and she whacks him in the head with her broom.
He rubs his head, muttering "Damn rust blood."
"What was that?"
"Nofin." and he grabs a dustpan and trash bag.
Sollux gets up and walks into his room then lays on the bed tired. He feels the fluttering movements again and sighs "Would you thtop it in there?".
He lays on his side and feels it again "Come on let me thleep."
He groans and sits up "Fine you've got my attention."
Sollux puts his hands on his stomach "Can I go two thleep now?"
At the movement he rolls his eyes "I doubt you underthtand, why am I even talking two you both?". He sighs "Whatever. If you want me two talk two you." then he thinks for a moment. "I hope you know AA ith your 'daddy'. I know that term thoundth thupid but luthuth ithn't really a befitting term now ith it?". "The ith the only thmart one around here. You better lithen two her...I hope you both are like her. I thure ath hell hope your not like me. You don't want two be like me.". "No you don't.". Then he face palms "I'm an idiot. Why am I trying two have a coverthation with them before they're born?".
He sits quietly for a minute "...Tho...you don't like Eridan right? I really hope you don't like him... I don't. I really hope heth not genetically rethponthible for you.". And he sighs. "FF ith okay...theth a little two excitable. And KKth a douche but at leatht heth pretending like he knowth what heth doing...heh but he really didn't thee it coming when KN thaid there wath two of you. The look on hith fathe wath pretty thupid. lmao.".
"Wow. twinth...you know you chothe a great time two thtart moving around and thit. Now the otherth think I'm either more of a freak than I wath or a petting zoo.". He frowns "But whatever. You didn't know." he sighs "Gog I'm tho not ready for thith...for you two. How am I even thupothed two raithe you?". "I don't thupothe you'd be able two tell me who ith genetically rethponthible for you?" he sighs "I thought not.". "There I go, trying two converthe with mindleth grubth.". "Oww! Okay you're not mindleth!".
He sighs and lays back down, starting at the ceiling "Why'd it have two be me? I know plenty of other trollth were doing it. Why not Kanaya, the loveth offthpring and the knowth what the'th doing...but no it had two be me. Mage of Doom me and my fucking luck...I had a pretty good thing going on before you two came along I hope you know...but you're not all that bad I gueth. I mean thure I'm a mitherable, fat, laughinthtock who can't even leave the house but I get free thtuff...and I can punch fithdick and he can't do a damn thing. Bethideth you might be good...if you don't eat your way out of me or thomething. If you can hear me don't do that. And you made AA and the otherth happy...and I'm a little leth mitherable.". "Ugh I'm doing it again! I'm going to bed and I better not feel a thingle wiggle from you two or tho help me I'll play death metal or one of KK'th thitty romcomth right next two my thtomach.".
Then he pulls on the blanket, resting his hands on his stomach fondly and begins to drift to sleep.
Sollux hears a familiar voice outside "Karkattttttttttt."
he sighs "What now?" and gets out of bed, poking his head out the window, coming face to face John Egbert.
John looks at him startled "Oh...you."
"Yeth me. Who elthe would it be when your outthide my hive yelling like an idiot?"
"Oh, I'm sorry." and he lands on the ground below.
Sollux frowns and slowly goes down the stairs and leaves his hive, walking up to John. "What are you doing here?"
John stares at his stomach "I was...Uh...The girls wanted to go to your uh...baby shower...And we wanted to congraulate...Karkat..."
He crosses his arms, irritated and snaps "Will you thop thtaring?!".
John looks up startled "Uh...sorry...it's just kinda weird."
Sollux glares at him "Obviouthly KK ithn't here tho I thuggetht you go-now."
He nods and pauses "So you left that scary girl then?"
He looks at him confused "Thcary? ...You mean AA? Fuck no!"
"But then..."
Someone tugs on John's hood, sending him stumbling back "Keep awway from my matesprit you commoner."
Sollux sighs "Not him." and Eridan stands beside him, arms wrapped around his neck.
"I don't wwant you infectin my wwrigglers wwith your wweird human germs."
"Go away fucktard."
John watches them arughe confused "Wait."
Then an angry voice cuts him off "BOTH FUCKASSES BACK AWAY FROM HIM."
and Karkat walks over to Sollux's other side and pulls him away from Eridan. "ESPECIALLY YOU AMPORA.".
"Kar you wwana try and tell me to stay awway from him again?"
"YES, YES I DO. GET THE FUCK OUT ERIDAN."
"I can see my matesprit and sons wwhen I wwant you codsuckin loser."
"SHUT THE FUCK AMPORA, YOUR REALLY STARTING TO PISS ME OFF. THERE'S A THREE OUT OF FOUR CHANCE IT'S NOT YOURS."
"More like a four out of four chance it is. An angry little mutant like you could nevver be the father, right my little seahorse?"
"Don't call me that fithdick."
John nods in realization "So he's a slut!".
Eridan and Karkat turn on him "Rude! Howw dare you call him that!"
"JOHN YOU'D BETTER SHUT THE FUCK UP, THAT'S MY MOIRAIL YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT.".
Sollux rolls his eyes "I'm hungry." and walks away into his hive, slamming the door.
"NOW YOU'VE DONE IT EGBERT!"
"I did?"
"You'vve gone and hurt his feelins!"
John looks at them confused "I did?"
"Yes, obvviously."
"NOW GO APOLOGIZE."
"What? No way! I don't know what to say."
"Wwell 'I'm sorry Sol'. It's not that hard, evven for humans."
"But."
"NO. GET OVER THERE AND APOLOGIZE RIGHT NOW...HE'S EMOTIONALLY FRAGILE."
"Emotionally what?!"
Eridan shoves him towards the door "Wwell hurry up!".
John walks towards the door uncertainly and glances over at the two angry trolls. Karkat glares at him and motions at the door. He sighs "here goes." and knocks.
After a moment the door swing open and Sollux glares at him "What?" a box of apple juice in his hand.
"Uh... can I come in?"
He rolls his eyes "Fine." and walks away from the door and sits at the table. John follows him in and sits across from him. He glances around awkwardly and looks at Sollux, eating a plate of frozen waffles with fruit gushers and macaroni on it. He wrinkles his nose and covers his face, so he would'nt see his "bluh" expression.
"So...What a nice day...?"
Sollux glares at him "What do you want?"
"Well...I wanted to apologize...for calling you a slut."
"Fine, whatever. You're not the firtht."
"Oh. Sorry."
He rolls his eyes "Thure.".
John looks down awkwardly at his hands "So...got a bun in the oven?" and he forces a weak laugh.
"What? I'm not cooking food."
"No, it's an expression, it means you're...pregnant..."
"Well obviouthly I am."
"Yeah, gonna have a little troll baby."
"Grubth. Don't compare my kidth two your pink monkey offthpring."
"Grubs? Don't you mean like, I dunno, grub?"
"No, I mean grubth."
"Oh so your having a litter then?"
"I am having twinth for your information. Not a "litter" like thome kind of paw beatht."
"Whoops...sorry...I don't really get troll talk."
"Yeah, I bet."
"So...Uh. When are they due? Really soon right? I don't really remember how far you're supposed to be... You look about eight months, I think...am I right?"
His fork hits the plate, making a hideous squeak. He bares his teeth, trying not to get mad "I am five monthth."
"Oh. I was really far off...I guess you look a little farther ahead because it's twins. I mean not because you're overweight, I think you were pretty skinny before...I'm sorry."
Sollux finishes his meal and glares at him "Are you done yet? Becauth you're only making thingth worthe."
"I guess I am..." then he beams "Oh wait!". And he sticks his hand in his pocket "I've got a preasent for you."
"Oh great."
"Karkat was talking about how you used to be a bee keeper, so since its your baby shower I alchemized this for you!" then he pulls out a bottle of honey and sets it on the table "Ta da! Here you go!".
Sollux jumps out of the chair and snarls "Are you trying two kill me?! Giving me mind honey when I'm pregnant!"
He looks at him confused "Do you not like honey? Oh my gog are you allergic?"
"Don't be thtupid, do you even know what it doeth two me?"
"Uh...no?"
Sollux growls "Mind honey overloadth my brain and cautheth a pthychic explothion."
"Oh...well this is human honey...I don't think it does that..."
A blonde teen in red throws open the door and walks in "Yo Egbert, you here."
John sighs, relieved "Right over here Dave, I was just going to leave."
Dave looks at him and Sollux "Talking with Vantass's girl?"
Sollux glares at him "Thtrider."
"no its pronounced Strider, Captor."
Sollux flushes yellow in rage then flinches, hands going to his stomach.
He smirks "What? Is mommy's little monster kicking?"
"Thut up Thtrider!"
"Is mommy getting protective?"
"I thaid thut up you prick. Or thould I break in your face?"
Aradia walks out of the room ,irritated, and whacks him with a broom "Stop it Dave.".
John stands quickly "Uh let's go Dave." and walks over to him, tugging at his sleeve "Come on. Sollux is pregnant and we don't to do anything that'll make him have his babies prematurely...especially getting in a fight with his girlfriend.".
Sollux and Dave have a stare down for a few moments longer then he turns around "Alright calm your tits Egbert." and puts him arm around him and walks him out.
Karkat walks in as soon as they leave "GOG-DAMNED STRIDER." and looks at him "ARE YOU ALRIGHT SOLLUX?"
Sollux glares at him, still furious "I fucking hate him."
"I KNOW, CALM DOWN." and Aradia goes behind him and starts rubbing his shoulders.
He sighs "That fucking prick alwayth geth two me."
"YEAH, HE'S A REAL DOUCHE. I'LL HAVE TO TALK TO HIM."
"How can you even be hith friend?"
"I DON'T KNOW. IT'S BETTER THEN BEING FRIENDS WITH GAMZEE STILL."
Sollux leans back into her "Thut up."
"OKAY."
Then his eyes start to water "He'th thuch a jerk two me." and he quickly rubs at the tears annoyed "Fucking hormoneth."
Aradia hugs him "It's alright."
"ARE-ARE YOU CRYING?"
"No! Didn't I tell you two thut up?"
"YOU'RE UPSET BECAUSE OF THE WAY HE TREATED YOU?"
"Thut up."
Karkat makes an angry fist "THAT'S IT I'M KICKING HIS ASS."
"KK jutht thit down AA already delt with him."
She laughs "Yep. I kicked his ass with a broom."
He pauses "ARE YOU SURE?"
"Yeth I'm thure. Ith not a big deal, jutht drop it."
Karkat sighs "ALRIGHT."
"Get me thomething two eat. I'm hungry."
"OKAY."
He makes him a sandwhich and walks back out. Sollux takes it and starts eating.
"SO...TWINS?"
"Yeah. Didn't expect that did you."
"NOT REALLY."
"Tho doeth thith make you want two run off and pretend you're not involved."
"OF COURSE NOT SOMEONE HAS TO BE THE SMART ONE, FUCKASS."
"I am the thmart one."
"YEAH I BET."
"Don't meth with me KK, I can thtill break your nothe."
"I KNOW, I KNOW. THE WHOLE 'I DID IT TO ERIDAN I CAN DO IT TO YOU' RANT."
"Your one two talk about ranth. All the time jutht 'blah blah food blah blah parenting blah blah. bluh."
Aradia laughs "Both of you are immature idiots."
"AA!"
"ARADIA!".
