The shock is not likely to fade anytime soon, nor the sheer giddiness. It is perhaps not surprising that Adam and Alanna haven't budged from the flat today, with the exception of a quick run for food. Currently, they are curled up on the couch arguing about which movie to watch. It's almost more entertaining than actually watching a movie, and it doesn't seem as if a decision will be reached in the near future.

Well, they certainly won't watch a movie any time soon if Alanna doesn't bow to the superiority of ~~Three Ninjas: Kickback~~ Adam's taste in cinema. But he doesn't seem to mind and laughs as she makes that face.

Lilly is currently knocking cheerfully on the door to their flat. There's a couple things she wants to ask Alanna about before Lucy's bachelorette party.

"Hey, you guys home?"

"All I'm saying is that I'm sure we have things with more swords!"

At the knock on the door, Alanna attempts to untangle herself and stand, failing miserably.

"Come in," she calls out. Loudly. Right next to Adam's ear.

Adam winces and covers his ears. He turns towards the door and, when Lilly comes through, looks at her, pleading.

Giving Lilly a pleading look is not likely to result in actual help, so much, even if she doesn't know why you're looking at her like that.

"Hi Alanna! Hi Adam! Congrats on knocking Alanna up, by the way. You're so going to be the best somewhat demonic father in bar."

She pauses for a second.

"Although, considering your main competition is like, Lucifer and Crowley you were probably going to win by default. Or just by not making the baby live in hell or wear sunglasses indoors. Anyways, way to go!"

Alanna takes one look at Adam's face and bursts out laughing.

"Lilly -- you have no idea," she manages. "And Lucifer. Lucifer, Lucifer. I think threatening him with a grandchild for the weekend is a surefire way to evaluate the speed of his disappearing act."

Adam tries to stand, and fails spectacularly. His wife gets not such a kind look at her laughter, and he peers up at Lilly from the floor. His voice come out a hoarse whisper, but he holds his fingers up -- three.

Lilly blinks at him, confused.

"Oookay. Three syllables. Sounds like?"

Still laughing, Alanna looks down at Adam and shakes her head.

"Sounds like three," she repeats.

Lilly gets a sidelong, amused glance.

"Not one, not two... THREE."

Adam nods his head enthusiastically.

"Three babies! Not aliens. She doesn't like it when I say aliens."

Lilly's still confused.

"Three non-alien babies? What the-"

And then it hits.

"You're having THREE BABIES? God, Alanna. Your womb isn't just open for business, it's a damn factory."

Blushing faintly, Alanna snickers and nods, quite unable to respond for several moments.

"What, no comment on his demon sperm?" She jerks a thumb in Adam's direction, then offers him her hand. "I'm certain that had something to do with our litter."

Adam facepalms rather severely, but somehow manages to make it back to his feet.

"Right, then."

Lilly's still blinking a bit but recovering nicely.

"Nah, I mean. If it were all Adam's fault you'd be having 666 babies. That's probably what his sperm were trying for, actually, but your kickass Lioness eggs fought off all but three of them."

Tapping a finger against her lips, Alanna appears to be giving this a great deal of thought.

"Of course they did," she concludes rather than try to make sense of it. "I think three was maximum capacity, but even then, I have my doubts."

Lips twitching, she lifts her --Adam's -- shirt a little bit and eyes her stomach.

Adam's hand instinctively goes to cover the bump that's there, and he can't help the grin that spreads out over his face.

"Just be thankful it's not like that family that had eight."

"Eight what?" Lilly mutters.

She glances at Alanna's chest and smirks.

"Man. Sir Jell and Sir O are going to be very, very busy in a few months."

"Kittens, I suspect."

Eyes widening, Alanna looks back and forth between Lilly and Adam -- and then Sir Jell and Sir O.

Amused, she shrugs as if to say there are worse things.

"Even now, I don't think I could bind them enough to pass for a boy."

A thoughtful expression crosses her face.

Adam manages NOT to move his hands to her breasts, but instead studies Alanna with a strange look.

"Children," is what he says offhandedly, but even he's not paying attention anymore.

Everyone is now looking thoughtfully at Alanna's breasts. Fun!

Lilly's eyeing Sirs Jell and O speculatively as she steps closer.

"Yeah, you're right. I mean-"

She reaches out and cups them gently.

"-they're already bigger since the last time I did this."

Any and all gender issues are chased away by the thought: Lilly is holding my breasts again. Nothing can compete with that for brain space.

"Aren't they?" Alanna asks conversationally, trying to decide if she should laugh or cry. If she looks at Adam, she'll lose it.

Adam bats at Lilly's hands.

"Hey hey HEY. Those are MINE."

Lilly sticks her tongue out at him as she reluctantly releases Sirs Jell and O.

"No, they're Alanna's."

She sticks a newly freed hand out and grabs his crotch.

"These are yours."

Face red, Alanna swats her hand.

"I rather think," she informs Lilly, "that all bodily parts in question are our communal property."

Adam's voice is a bit higher than usual when he speaks again.

"You only get to touch those if you're-

nevermind."

"If I'm conducting a very important study about the comparative fertility of demon vs. non-demon testicles?" Lilly asks hopefully.

"I mean, it'd be for science."

"I'd be interested in your basis of comparison."

Alanna frowns and crosses her arms, eyeing Adam.

"If she's what?"

"Nothing! Nothing."

Alanna's scary. Just look at Adam cower.

Alanna's scary and she's redirected Lilly's attention. Cower, Adam, cower!

"Yeah, if I'm what?"

"SOMETHING YOU WON'T BE DOING."

Rarely has anybody seen Adam's face quite that shade of red.

An acceptable response, if a delayed one. Alanna stands down.

"Agreed," she says smoothly, falling somewhat awkwardly back on the couch. Hey, it's not her fault no one is currently supporting her by her breasts.

Adam was hitting her hands, or Lilly still would be. If only he'd used his words instead, Alanna would still be firmly supported.

Maybe this is why he didn't use his words.

"But how can you know it's something I won't be doing?"

Lilly's about to start using logic.

"I mean, you can't know what I wouldn't do unless you tell me what it is so I can tell you yes or no."

Yes, Lilly. That WOULD be why he didn't use his words.

Adam coughs, his face still a rather impressive colour.

"Because I know already."

"I know it's something you won't be doing," Alanna explains reasonably from the couch. "Because if you did, I would be forced to lose my temper on you, and no one wants that to happen."

Alanna smiles pleasantly enough and goes back to contemplating the size of her chest.

"No, they really don't," Lilly agrees, looking dejected.

She sighs.

"Okay, I promise I will only ever manipulate Adam's crotch if I can find a way to do so without making you lose your temper at me."

Adam squeaks. "Right then."

"Didn't you come here for a REASON?"

"Groping first my person and then yours isn't a reason?"

It's Lilly. Of course it's a reason.

Alanna smiles and tucks her feet under her, nodding to Lilly.

"Definitely a reason," Lilly agrees, nodding back at Alanna.

"I mean, I might have wanted to talk to Alanna about Lucy's bachelorette party too, but that's way less important than realizing you're going to have THREE BABIES for me to warp- mold. Help mold. I will be very careful with their fragile young minds."

See icon. Mhmm.

Alanna can't help but laugh.

"These children are going to be a product of Adam and myself. I have the feeling that, in time, they might even be able to teach you a thing or two."

Still grinning, she pulls herself to her feet and bows.

"I am at your service for all your planning needs. What will it be? Swinging party in the past, ass massage or indiscriminate nakedness?"

Lilly just looks at Alanna and smirks.

"I think all of the above is a pretty good start, actually. Don't you?"

She chooses to believe that the expressions on Adam and Alanna's faces are agreement, and nothing either of them say for the rest of the afternoon is enough to make her think otherwise.
