Geez. Its been so long, I feel terrible really. Life just really caught up to me, and I was also attempting to do more work with my youtube channel, and trying to spend some time with my partner and...yeah. Just lots of stuff happened at once. And to be honest, lots of problems with this chapter. I wanted to write it, but had trouble making it work. Still not sure it does to be fair.

For the future, I'll be trying to post more on my Tumblr, especially updates as to where my fics may be or when new chapters may come out. So if you follow me, look out for such updates! And feel free to send me ideas for some of these chapters, as while I have plenty, maybe you have a better one! Thanks for being so patient with me guys, and I hope you enjoy.

Weiss glanced down at the news scrolling across her scroll, a small smile lighting up her face as she sat calmly in her office. "Breakthrough: Scientists discover way to fertilize eggs without sperm!" Having heard the news twenty minutes before it hit the papers (considering she was the one who was funding the research), Weiss could only grin as she thought ahead to Ruby's reaction when she found out. Her wife was due home tomorrow, and Weiss thought this the perfect welcome home gift.

The two of them had spoken about children before, and though they had both been unsure at first, they eventually decided they did want them. It would be a struggle, Weiss knew…Ruby couldn't go out on as many missions as she liked, nor would this help Weiss' own scheduling issues, but it was a decision they felt ready for. Besides, they did have an entire house full of people they could trust to help them. Weiss pondered for a moment, before tapping a button on her scroll. A friendly young face popped up of a young man, his brown rounded ears twitching slightly. "Yes Mrs. Schnee?"

"Brun, would you be so kind as to check my schedule tomorrow?"

Brun quickly glanced down, typing swiftly out of Weiss' sight, his eyes scanning across the screen before him. "You appear to have three meetings scheduled Ma'am. At 10AM you have a meeting with Security for the new Dust mine opening south of Mistral. Miss Xiao Long is also listed as an attendee at that meeting. You have a note here saying she is to be inspecting. At 12:30 you have a meeting with Mr. Wren, about a possible second contract. Your final meeting is scheduled for four, a meeting with the Atlesian Senate Housing Committee on a license for building new housing for your workers. Also attending will be Miss Schnee." Weiss nodded at Brun, sitting back in her chair for a moment as she pondered.

"Brun, inform Security Yang will be my stand-in entirely for the meeting at 10. Reschedule my meeting with Sandy, I'll explain it to him later, he'll understand. Winter will take over for me at the Senate meeting. I will be taking tomorrow off, I have much to do."

Brun nodded. "Yes Ma'am. I'll have the updated schedule sent to you within the hour."

Weiss glanced at her clock, blinking slightly as she realized what time it was. "Brun, it's nearly seven. What are you even doing in the office?"

"I still had paperwork to file Ma'am."

Weiss rolled her eyes. "Brun, I pay you to work forty hours a week, not eighty. As soon as you finished rescheduling, go home. Leave the paperwork for tomorrow. Remind me to look into getting you an assistant."

Brun blinked at Weiss. "Mrs. Schnee, I am your assistant."

"Yes, and my assistant clearly needs an assistant." Weiss smiled at Brun, giving a tiny chuckle as she said it. "That'll be all Brun. Remember, go home as soon as the schedule is adjusted, that's an order."

Brun nodded calmly. "Yes Ma'am." The screen clicked off, leaving Weiss alone in her office, rolling her eyes once more at her workaholic assistant. Tapping her nails on her desk for a moment, she sighed before standing up. She had to go catch Yang and Winter to tell them about the changes. As she stood, she heard a loud exclamation from Yang, followed by the sound of running feet and calls of Blake's name. Weiss sighed, knowing whatever had excited Yang would take a while to move out of her system. Maybe she should talk to Winter first.

Ruby stretched her arms above her head as she opened the door to the Schnee Estate, letting out a massive yawn as she did so. It was pretty early in the morning for her, but she had wanted to get home as soon as possible after two weeks in the deserts outside of Vacuo. As soon as the door opened, the rapid clicking of claws on wood sounded as Zwei came barreling around the corner, his tongue hanging from his mouth as he leapt up into Ruby's arms. Laughing, Ruby kissed him on the top of his head, snuggling him close as she buried her nose in his fur.

"Hey Zwei, were you a good boy while I was gone? Huh?" As Zwei panted happily in her arms, a loud, thunderous crash came from the same direction Zwei had come from, before the pounding of footsteps sounded on throughout the house. Sighing with an indulgent smile on her face, Ruby quickly set Zwei down and raised her aura as high as she could, turning just in time to see the massive form of a fully grown Beowulf with an oddly red mask come barreling at her, tongue lolling out in much the same manner as Zwei. It leapt at her, flying through the air with a series of deep, resonant barks as it tackled her straight onto the ground, landing on her stomach and knocking the wind out of her as it began slobbering all over her. Weakly Ruby tried to shove his head back, gasping for air as she tried to control her giggles.

"Drei, when will you learn you aren't a lap dog?" came the amused voice of Weiss, smiling down at the pair as Zwei ran circles around her legs excitedly. Weiss uncrossed her arms as she strolled over, gently shoving Drei to get him to move off Ruby. Drei leapt up and started prancing excitedly around the two with Zwei, giving a quick series of barks at Weiss. Weiss patted him on his mask, before glancing down at her still sprawled out wife. "Are you going to get up?"

Ruby gave Weiss a bright smile, her eyes locked with her wife. "Nope, just gonna lay here and look at my beautiful wife."

A faint trace of pink crossed Weiss' cheeks as she took in a deep breath, trying to ignore the sharp thump in her chest. "Oh, stop it. Come on, there is something I want you to see."

Ruby rolled her head on the floor, her characteristic pout spreading across her face as she whined. "Ugh, right now? It's so eaaaaarrrlllyyyy."

"Oh, fine! Here!" Weiss whipped out her scroll, the headline article already pulled up as she held it over Ruby's face. Ruby tilted her head slightly as she glanced at the scroll, eyes narrowed. Weiss waited impatiently for a moment, before glancing down at Ruby. "Well?"

"It's upside down! I can't read that!"

Weiss' eye twitched. "You dolt, you should have said something before!" She quickly flipped the scroll around so Ruby could read it properly. Weiss watched as Ruby's eyes narrowed again, before comprehension dawned on her face as her eyes went wide. In a blur of motion, she leapt to her feet and yanked Weiss into her arms, slamming Weiss' face into her chest, squeezing her tightly.

"Yes! Yes, Yes, Yes! We've been waiting for this!" Ruby kept squeezing Weiss tightly, ignoring the way her wife was struggling in her arms as Weiss tried to speak, her voice muffled by Ruby's curves. Finally, Ruby released Weiss, the older woman shoving Ruby back as she tried to compose herself.

"Yes, so we have. Let's go."

Ruby blinked at Weiss, confused for a moment. "Wait, you mean right now?" At Weiss' firm nod, Ruby jerked back slightly. "You want to do this now? Shouldn't we like, plan or something?"

"We already did, Ruby. Remember? You slept through half of my presentation until I brought out the strawberries."

Ruby took a moment to glance up, thinking, before her memory seemed to kick in. "Oh yeah, and then we had lots of fun with those strawberries and the whipped cream right after!"

Weiss quickly shushed Ruby. "Quiet! Don't say that so loud! Why am I not surprised that's all you remembered from that?"

"Hmph! I remember the rest too!"

Weiss gave Ruby a disbelieving look. "Really? So tell me, what is our schedule for nightly feedings hmm?" Ruby opened her mouth to reply, one finger pointed up, before slowly lowering it and looking away sheepishly. Weiss smirked. "That's what I thought. Are you ready?" Ruby sighed, before smiling and nodding as she shrugged slightly. Weiss' face fell. "…you still want to do this, right?"

"Of course I do Weiss! But are you sure about this? It's gonna be hard to run the SDC while pregnant…are you sure I shouldn't do it?"

"Ruby, you would go insane if you couldn't get out and hunt every couple of weeks. I spend most of my time in an office anyways, it's simpler for me to do it. Besides, we've had this discussion five times already." Weiss took Ruby's hand in her own, looking deep into silver eyes. "Sweetheart, trust me. I know what I'm doing. I know it'll be painful at times, and I'll probably be a bigger pain than normal, but it's for the best." Ruby kept her eyes locked on Weiss', letting out a big sigh before smiling softly at her wife. Kissing Weiss on the cheek and keeping their hands locked, she handed her bag to Drei. Drei quickly grabbed it up in his front paws and dashed off back to Ruby and Weiss' shared bedroom, Zwei chasing after him excitedly as the red and white pair stepped out the front door.

The clatter of dishes and the murmur of conversation surrounded the long table set in the massive, well-lit dining room. Rambunctious laughter came from Sun, tail wrapped firmly around Neptune's waist, as Yang did an imitation of a stuck up businessman she had dealt with the week before while Nora listened to her story with wide eyes. Blake handed Yang another buttered roll without looking, holding a book in her other hand as she read intently. Sage was circumspectly tinkering with a small, round device as he kept shooting glances towards Weiss, knowing how stubborn she was about tinkering at the dinner table. Scarlet had a magazine open before him, casually sipping from his wine as Yatsuhashi refilled it for him, holding a quiet conversation with Neptune.

Coco was trying to convince Pyrrha, again, to try modeling in her spare time. Coco remained convinced that Pyrrha should at least try it, with Coco as her manager and clothing director. Pyrrha kept trying to demure as Jaune and Velvet chuckled to themselves at the two bickering women, sharing a secretive glance. Fox nonchalantly kept a camera focused on Coco, adding to his ever growing blackmail album. Ren calmly ate next to Nora, seemingly somewhat absent minded at the time as he was not correcting Nora's wild and outlandish claims she kept interrupting Yang with. Ruby picked at her food, a bit nervous as Weiss sat proudly next to her, keeping her own nerves locked up with her normal stubbornness. Winter, seated on the other side of Weiss, kept shooting glances at her sister, concerned with her slight twitches.

Having already rang Sandy up and informing him of the nightly dinner (which always led to him being needed to repair something), Weiss took a deep breath, standing up from her chair and holding up her glass. Tapping it lightly to get everyone's attention, she waited till the group calmed down (well, as calm as it ever got). Glancing down at Ruby and giving her an arched eyebrow, Ruby stared blankly at her for a moment, before comprehension dawned on her face and she leapt to her feet next to Weiss.

"Ruby and I have an announcement to make. We've been thinking and discussing this for a long time, and well…" Weiss trailed off, shifting nervously for a moment as she took another deep breath. Clearing her throat, she spoke again. "We're having a baby."

Silence. The entire room was silent for a brief moment, until loud cheers erupted out from some of the seated members. Winter leapt to her feet, hugging Weiss tightly as she smiled, as team SSSN began cheering loudly for them. In the midst of the celebration, Yang leapt up, shouting over the din. "Wait!" Everyone froze at Yang's bellow, glancing at the blonde as she gaped, wide-eyed at Weiss.

Ruby cocked her head at Yang, confusion written upon her face. "Yang? Is something the matter?"

Yang threw her hands up in the air. "Yes! Well, not really, but…you're already pregnant?"

"I am, yes. I'm sure you saw the news reports that the research my Health Division had finished-"Weiss' reply was cut off by Yang.

"Yes, we saw it! That's because we went there too!" The entire room blinked at Yang for a moment, letting her statement sink in.

Blake rolled her eyes, setting her book down and standing up beside Yang. "What she's trying to say is, you two aren't the only ones having a baby." Yang patted her abdomen meaningfully as she glanced down, her face slightly flushed as Blake took her hand. Ruby and Weiss gaped for a moment, before Ruby dashed over in a flurry of petals and slammed into Yang, hugging her tightly. Yang laughed, hugging Ruby back.

"I'm gonna be an aunt!" the sisters shouted in unison, Blake face palming beside them.

"You're also going to be mothers."

The two sisters ignored Blake, leading to the dark haired woman to roll her eyes before glancing back down the table at Weiss. Weiss was standing stock still, mouth still gaping. Blake shoved her chair back and was about to walk down the table to Weiss when a slamming sound came from the other side. Everyone glanced down the table to look at Nora, her hands planted firmly on the table as she stood. Ren had his head in his hands as he sighed deeply.

"Hey! You guys don't get to have all the fun! Me and Rennie are part of this too!"

Ren took his head out of his hands long enough to glance up, his expression rueful. "Nora is also pregnant. Although we did not go to the clinic."

Nora winked at the table, chuckling. "We did it the old fashioned way! You know, up in a tree, hanging from it like a pair of sloths and making all the fun-"Ren slapped his hand over Nora's mouth quickly, his pale features stained pink as he avoided looking at anyone else in the room.

"I don't think they need to know the details, Nora." Nora pouted, but made no effort to remove Ren's hand from her mouth as she grumbled incoherently. Weiss' eye began twitching.

Jaune coughed, his face beet red, standing up next to Pyrrha, their hands interlocked tightly.

"Umm…so…Pyrrha and I…uh…"

Fox's amused voice rang out, interrupting Jaune's stammered speech. "I think we get the point. Bun in the oven, right? I guess you can cook in more ways than one." Yatsuhashi and Velvet just groaned, as Coco began cackling at how bright red Pyrrha and Jaune turned. Weiss' fists clenched at her sides.

Sun stood up, announcing loudly "Well, we aren't pregnant!"

"I should hope not, unless you forgot to tell us something Sun!" Coco replied through her chuckles.

Sun grinned irrepressibly as Neptune rolled his eyes. "We did get a pet cat though." Sun said, all eyes snapping to him.

"A pet…cat?" Blake blinked at Sun, letting the incredulousness ooze from her voice.

Sun nodded happily, sticking two fingers in his mouth and giving a piercing whistle, making Blake and Velvet wince slightly. A loud growl came from the door to the pantry, it flinging open to reveal the form of a massive white tiger. It slunk into the room casually, yawning as it grumbled. It glanced around the room at the frozen hunters sleepily, slowly making its way next to Sun. Flopping down on the floor behind his chair, it planted its head on its paws and began snoring instantly. Sun's tail began stroking its ears as he smiled widely. "Her name is Suzie!"

Winter groaned. "You have got be kidding me…" but cut herself off in midsentence when she noticed she no longer had feeling in her fingers. Looking next to her, Winter noted she still had her arms around her sister, an icy chill seeping out from Weiss as her eyes twitched faster. Gulping, Winter relaxed her grip, backing away from Weiss slowly. The room began to quiet down as all eyes turned to the white-haired woman at the end of the table, her frozen form shaking slightly.

Ruby dashed to Weiss' side, leaning over in front of Weiss and looking up at her, hands clasped behind her back. "Weissy? You ok in there?" Weiss closed her eyes briefly, her hands shaking even more firmly as tiny white snowflakes began forming around her. Ruby's eyes widened as she yelped. "Get down!" Ruby dived beneath the table in a flurry of petals as the rest of the group followed suit instantly, knowing better than to ignore Ruby on this. Suzie didn't bother moving from her comfortable spot on the carpet.

Sandy casually strolled into the room at that moment, raising his eyes up from his scroll to wave a greeting, his eyes going huge as a blast of frigid air filled with ice shards came flying his way, exploding outward from the trembling Schnee CEO. His words were swallowed in the storm as he went flying backwards through the double doors leading into the dining room, ice shards smashing into the walls and blasting clean through the table.

Seconds later, the wind faded as Weiss took a deep, calming breath, opening her eyes again as she stopped shaking. Lightly brushing a speck of dust off of her jacket, she sighed contentedly. "I needed that." Raising an eyebrow, she glanced down at the table. "You all can come out now. It's safe." Slowly, the hunters began creeping out of their hiding spots…most beneath the table, but a few coming out from behind cabinets.

Sun dropped from the chandelier, rubbing his hand on the back of his head as he smiled nervously. "I guess Suzie was a bit much, huh?"

Weiss glared at him, before marching over to loom over the still snoring tiger. Sighing heavily, her hands on her hips, she gave it a quick poke with her heel. Suzie opened one eye lazily, rolling her head slightly so she could glimpse Weiss. Suzie quickly lashed out with one paw, knocking Weiss' feet out from under her. As Weiss fell with a startled yelp, Suzie's paw flicked out a second time, wrapping around the white haired woman's waist and dragging her next to the tiger, snuggling into her side and falling asleep again. Weiss' jaw dropped, completely dumbfounded, not even attempting to move as she lay flat on her back, a massive paw stretched over her.

Sandy clambered back into the room, growling under his breath. Brushing flakes of snow and ice off his work uniform, he stomped around the room and glanced down at Weiss, chuckling as he saw the position she was in. Leaning over her, his large form blocking out the light from the chandelier, he smiled widely. "I'm going to consider this karma for knocking me out of the room. You want to tell me what all that was about?"

Ruby flitted over to Sandy's side, grinning widely. "Well, Weiss told everyone she was pregnant, and then Yang was like 'Hey, I'm pregnant too!' and then Nora was all 'Me too!' and Jaune and Pyrrha tried to tell us they were but they were too busy blushing to say it, and then Sun revealed Suzie here and Weiss just kaboomed!"

Sandy blinked as he tried to process the rapid-fire speech Ruby just gave him. Slowly, the pieces began fitting together in his mind. His own eye twitched for a brief moment. "…you mean to tell me, that soon, not only will sixteen hunters and Winter be in this house, not only will you have the super dog, not only will you have a tame Beowulf, not only do you now have a tiger, but you'll also have at least four…children…your children. Children created by all of you. With your genes. A child with Yang's genes. A child with Nora's genes?! FOUR?!" Ruby nodded excitedly, not noticing how Sandy's voice rose with every repetition. Sandy glanced around the room, noting the destruction wreathed by Weiss' tantrum, and sighed.

Leaning down once more and looking the still prone Weiss straight in the eyes, Sandy asked in his most deadpan voice, "You wouldn't happen to know any good psychiatrists, would you?"
