BANG!
Ekko just about jumped out of his skin as his peaceful morning suddenly exploded into sound. Eyes bleary, toothbrush in hand, he turns to face the whirlwind of energy that had nearly busted the door down. "Jinx, what-"
"You better take responsibility for this, Savior Boy," she interrupts, a dramatic pout on her face.
"Responsibility? Jinx, what are you talking about…" Ekko starts to ask then trails off as his gaze drops from her face to her shockingly large belly.
He freezes, his mind taking an unusually long time to compute. There's no way she could get this… this pregnant… over night. Reproductive education in Zaun wasn't exactly spectacular, but everyone knows pregnancy isn't like, instant…
As his mind cycles through confusion and possibilities, Jinx starts cackling, pulling a pillow out from under her shirt. Doubled over from laughing she waves the pillow at Ekko, wiping a tear from her eye with her free hand.
"You should've seen your face!" she wheezes, using the door frame to hold herself up for a moment.
"Don't scare me like that," Ekko groans, wiping toothpaste from his mouth and pushing a stray lock out of his eyes. "You nearly gave me a heart atta-" he starts to say, but is cut off again when Jinx launches herself at him, wrapping her arms around his neck, practically swinging herself around him like a monkey on a tree. She wraps an arm around his neck and pulls him into her, whipping a small, pink-and-white stick out from her pocket to hold in front of his face.
As Ekko's eyes blur and refocus on the stick in front of him, the first thing he sees as he hears Jinx say, "There's no way I'd be that big already, silly," are two thin, pink lines, side by side.
