Variant of my Laima Touden idea, inspired by comments by @tsatsked and @oceanqueenmusical;

Dunmeshi spoilers obvs:

instead of having kids like in the prev idea - Laios/Laima simply never had (or can't have) kids during their rough early years. This leaves them with the conflicting desire of wanting children/becoming a parent, but relief at not becoming a parent at such a young age or with someone they didn't love.

The Winged Lion senses this complex desire, and is intrigued... As a off-shoot of a greater being, it's never understood the concept of parenthood and children. It might as well have budded off from the greater cosmic Demon like coral polyp.

So when a certain battle of appetites occurs; the Winged Lion offers Laios a deal. The demon won't take away the tallman's greatest desire - but in return Laios must become his new "blood host". Whatever the hell that means.

Laios accepts the deal. The Winged Lion's heart and soul is eaten whole by a man with a monster's appetite.

The Demon goes quiet.

Laios is left with biological remnants of his chimeric form. Namely feathers upon his collar much like Falin (they now joke that it's a familial trait), wolfish body hair, powerful claws and teeth, etc...

Also he's nauseous, can't stand certain smells and food, craves others like they're vital to his life force, has a constant ache below his stomach, and his ankles are swelling.

Turns out what the Winged Lion meant by "blood host" was "birth parent". XD

Chilchuck screams in horror as he recognises the symptoms of pregnancy upon Merini's new monarch long before they do.

⸻ Elizabeth still felt the pain, from the cramps and suddenly she felt a bit wet between her legs, although she could not check what it was at the moment, she was slightly curved since it seemed the most comfortable position at the moment. She felt his hand on top of hers and she looked up at him. As he excused himself briefly, she was looking down at a hand resting on the tree to support her own weight. After a moment when he came, she let him pick her up, feeling tears falling on her delicate features because she was both worried about their unborn twins and the pain. She agreed with him, to change to something clean. Liz only cleaned her face, and changed her clothes, to other pajamas, noticing she was bleeding now, that's why she felt wet early… she would shower if she weren't in pain, but that was not the case.

She also was worried about their asleep twins, not wanting to alarm them. Perhaps, she could figure out a reason why she needed to stop by there for the babies to tell them. ⎯ She wasted no time in being at the doorframe waiting for Alex to help her get in the car. ⎯ Arriving at the hospital, she was led to the emergency, where the doctors ran a few exams to check if she was fine and their babies. The medication made her drowsy, which explained why she was asleep, but the doctor came to tell Alex that Liz was a bit weak and that she commented she had a little stress early, and he told him their babies need a bit of weight especially one of the twins, but she'd stay one night there in observation and fortunately not too dangerous, if she responds well to treatments and a few more exams they're performing she can be home.

Hours later, she woke up and opening her eyes slowly seeing the lights hitting straight on her eyes with blurry vision and blinked twice, before her gaze focus on Alex, and she stretched her hand to reached his.

───hearing her say she was unhurt was a relief ( alas short-lived ). it was a risk he knew he was taking when he wanted to be part of the twins’ life, or when he later asked her to be with him; he had tried to keep them separate from that life of his, but always knew it would catch up at some point. it felt unfair when she found out what he truly does for a living —he did not try to hide it or deny it, but he also wouldn’t simply bring it up out of the blue, when perhaps he should have. even if she had wanted to be with him still despite knowing the risks; it was already a fait accompli or so it felt to him.

Liz telling him it wasn’t his fault, although comforting, it was something he knew to be untrue; if it weren’t for his involvement in the criminal world, this wouldn’t have happened. but he hardly had room to argue as her words that followed, telling him she was worried about their unborn twins, monopolized his attention. his hand cupped hers over her bump and he pressed a kiss on her forehead, listening to her speak. he contemplated her words for a mere second before gently shaking his head. ���it’s not safe, baby,” he told her, softly. Letting her drive to the hospital while she felt unwell, or that something might have happened to their babies was not wise; he understood she didn’t want to alarm the twins, but they were still sleeping and they could find a plausible excuse for the impromptu night visit to the hospital without alarming them. “we will go,” he reassured her, squeezed her hand for a brief second before pulling away from her with a breathy, “give me a second.” and he meant it, a mere second; Alex grabbed the now deceased man by the shirt, lifted him up and carried him a little deeper in the woods; out of sight for anyone who would happen to come by before he could to clean up the crime scene.

he’d deal with the rest of it later.

even though it was not evident in either his demeanor or his tone of voice, he was worried for both her and the babies, knew they shouldn’t waste any more time. he wrapped an arm around her small frame as he draped her hand around his neck again, carefully lifted her up. pressed a kiss to her temple, then carried her to the room as he told her she could change out of the bloody coat and when she’d be ready, he would take the twins to the car. but first, he went to turn the car on, so it’d be warm for them when he would put them inside. then gently lifted each of them up, grabbing a little blanket for each as well. they mumbled, but they remained sleeping. he had brought the car as close to the room as he possibly could, so he carried the twins to the car and waited to help Liz when she’d come out of the room, not wanting her to strain herself further by walking whilst having cramps and still being stressed over the twins’ well-being ( and he would worry for hers, too, because he knew she did not think of herself at this moment ).

instagram post: *video of a woman gently encouraging a hesitant child to go down a slide*

the first comment: this woman is violently pressuring her child to do something that they are clearly terrified to do, children should NEVER have to do anything they don't want to do, this kid is being abused and will grow up to hate their mother i hope someone calls cps on her

the second comment: kids are so thin skinned these days if it were my kid i would push it down the slide and laugh at it if it cried. this is the only way we will win the culture war

the third comment: she should have used a condom. this would make a great condom ad. no one cares that someone came in you. kids are not human. i hate kids so much.

the fourth comment: DM ME """HELP""" 🤝💪😤 I AM PAYING OFF DEBT OF FIRST 5 🎉 TO DM 💯💯💵💵 DON'T MISS THIS OPPORTUNITY 😍

Maybe that was why she wasn’t worrying about educating herself on what was happening right now, because she was so safe in the knowledge that Theo would have all that covered. She was in no safer hands and while some might say that was selfish of her, she’d do the same for them in a heartbeat. When they were younger Imogen had been Theo’s protector from their mum, Imogen’s family becoming their family, and when they got older those roles had swapped but that didn’t stop them both for being there for each other when needed no matter how old they got. “Thank you.” She whispered, giving them another little peck on the lips so they knew she really meant it. Especially since they’d for some odd reason thought they had to apologise for the night before when it was exactly what Imogen deserved. And Theo coming back was more than that. 

No, no it wasn’t ideal, it wasn’t how either of them had wanted to do this. In all honesty Imogen always wanted their baby to be Theo’s egg inside her, or vice versa depending on who they decided would carry the baby, but they did have a point. IVF was fucking expensive, and babies too, so add the two together they might well have thrown themselves into some nasty debt. Especially if they’d wanted to do it more than once. “I’m sorry…I’m sorry I caused this.” She was the one who needed to be apologising here after all. “I’m happy we’re going to be parents together too…and…okay do not judge me before I’ve finished my whole thought but I’m glad I have no fucking idea who the dude from the bar is because it’s not about him anyway. It’s about you and me and now we can just focus on that without any outside noise.” She giggled softly as they mentioned being elated, pressing her lips together, nodding her head as she looked at them. “We’re having the family we always wanted, the one I’d been thinking about from…shit…the first month of us dating?” Not that she’d ever confessed that. “Yeah, yeah the rest is confetti.” Hand going over theirs on her stomach as she looked down at them with a tiny smile playing on her lips. "Do you remember talking to my still very flat stomach last night as well? Because you did that - a lot." @imogen-rhitt

Theo wasn't a bashful person but hearing her say she was thankful she had them for this made them smile bashfully and blush a little as they nodded. Of course they'd be there, they'd always be there for her for anything, especially for something like this. There was no other option for them. They let out a soft chuckle and a nod when she said at least someone knew what the fuck was going on. That was their specialty. Knowing what the fuck was going on, always. That's why they liked to be organized and ready for anything. Of course their only blind spot was Imogen who could surprise them at any turn, case in point, their current situation.

At her question, Theo frowned but held one of her hands to kiss the back of it softly. "Is it ideal? Well, no. Is it everything I dreamed of? Definitely not." They let out a soft chuckle, shaking their head, still holding her hand. Then, they looked up. "But am I happy? 'Course I am. Why wouldn't I be? I'm going to have a baby with the love of my life and she saved us a shit ton of money and headache on IVF." Kissing her hand once again, they repeated, just in case. "I'm happy you want to do this with me. I'm happy we're get to be parents together. I'm happy you are here with me and you don't want me to go anywhere. I'm bloody elated actually." Theo let out another soft laugh. "You are going to give me the family I always wanted, I don't care how it happened. I'm happy." Their eyes got a little wet as they said the last few words, getting a little emotional about their future. "I love you. The rest is confetti, remember?"

The Sweetest Surprise

Masterlist || Ao3

Pairing: Aaron Hotchner x Shy!Female Reader||Word Count: >1k

Tags/Warnings: pregnancy tw

Aaron Hotchner could always tell when something was weighing on your mind. It was one of the many things he prided himself on—understanding you, even when you didn’t say a word. Lately, though, your quietness had stretched into something deeper, and it unsettled him more than he wanted to admit.

It started subtly. You’d been canceling plans more often, claiming exhaustion or not feeling well. Your usually bright smile had dimmed, and though you still laughed at his jokes and reassured him everything was fine, Aaron knew better. You weren’t yourself. Something was different.

Tonight, as you sat curled up on the couch, your knees tucked to your chest, Aaron couldn’t ignore it anymore. He set his mug of tea on the coffee table and turned to you fully.

“You’ve been quiet lately,” he said, his voice soft but firm. “Are you feeling okay?”

You hesitated, your fingers fidgeting with the hem of your sweater. The sight tugged at his heart. He reached out, his warm hand covering yours to still your movements.

“You can tell me anything,” Aaron added, his dark eyes searching yours. “You know that, right?”

You nodded quickly, but your gaze dropped to your lap. “I know,” you murmured, barely above a whisper.

He waited, giving you the space you needed, though his concern only grew with each passing second. When you finally lifted your head, the uncertainty in your eyes made his chest tighten.

“I need to tell you something,” you began, your voice trembling slightly. “But I’m nervous about how you’ll react.”

Aaron’s brows furrowed in confusion. Nervous? He couldn’t imagine what would make you feel that way with him.

“Whatever it is, I’m here,” he reassured you. “There’s nothing you could say that would change how I feel about you.”

You took a deep breath, your hands clutching each other tightly. “I…” You paused, struggling for the words, and Aaron’s heart ached seeing you so vulnerable. “I’m pregnant.”

The words hung in the air for a moment, and Aaron’s mind went blank. Pregnant. You were pregnant. His hand unconsciously tightened on yours, grounding him in the moment. He blinked, realizing you were anxiously watching him, your bottom lip caught between your teeth.

“Say something,” you whispered, barely audible.

Aaron’s face softened as the weight of your confession settled over him. His chest filled with a warmth he hadn’t felt in years—a mix of surprise, joy, and something deeper he couldn’t quite name.

“You’re pregnant?” he repeated, his voice gentle, as if saying it aloud would make it more real.

You nodded, tears brimming in your eyes. “I… I wasn’t sure how you’d feel about it. We never really talked about having kids, and I didn’t know if you…” You trailed off, your voice faltering.

Aaron shook his head quickly, leaning forward to cup your face in his hands. “Hey, hey,” he said, his thumbs brushing away the tears that slipped down your cheeks. “I’m… I’m so happy.”

Your eyes widened in surprise. “You are?”

“Of course I am,” he said, his voice firm and steady. “This is wonderful news.” He smiled then, a rare, genuine smile that made his eyes crinkle at the corners. “I… I had no idea you were feeling nervous about telling me. I wish you’d told me sooner so I could’ve been there for you.”

Relief flooded your face, and you let out a shaky laugh, covering his hands with yours. “I was just so scared,” you admitted. “I didn’t know how you’d react.”

Aaron leaned in, pressing a tender kiss to your forehead. “You don’t have to be scared. Not with me. We’re in this together.”

You smiled, a small, shy smile that made his heart swell. He pulled you into his arms, holding you close as he let the reality of your words sink in. You were going to have a baby. A new life, a part of both of you, and he couldn’t imagine anything more perfect.

As you rested your head against his chest, Aaron spoke softly, his voice filled with quiet wonder. “We’re going to be parents.”

You nodded against him. “Yeah. We are.”

Aaron pressed another kiss to the top of your head, his lips lingering as he murmured, “I already love this baby so much. And I love you.”

“I love you too,” you whispered back, your voice filled with emotion.

At that moment, everything felt right. The worries, the uncertainties—none of it mattered. All that mattered was the two of you and the incredible future you were about to share. Together.

AU idea: Wukong goes into labor with the stone egg WHILE he's fighting Macaque

Not sure which fight you mean honestly, but I assume you meant the "OG" fight back during the Journey days.

I imagine this all occurs likely in a version of the Jttw Stone Egged au where Macaque joins the gang after he found out.

Wukong and Macaque are fighting neck and neck when Macaque finally stops to listen to Wukong's shouts;

Wukong, in tears: "Macaque please! Don't make me do this! I'm with-" Macaque: "What's that weird noise??" Wukong: "Huh?" Macaque: "It sorta sounds like a... bag of water? With a heartbeat inside of- OHHHH!" Macaque: (*points at Wukong's pants*) Wukong: (*looks down and sees that his water has broken*) Both monkeys: (*start screaming!*)

Macaque drops his glamour immediately to tend to his mate.

Macaque: "I have so many questions! Who, why, and how long?!" Wukong, has Macaque's hand in a death-grip: "You, Mountain, 500 years." Macaque, mental gears turning: "Huh!?! How did- ohhh wait... self-spawning. If I had kept coming and fed you peaches you wouldn't have-" Wukong: "Yeah!" Macaque: "And since I wa- Am your mate the kid would be-" Wukong: "YEAH." Macaque, trying to lighten the mood: "Do I get visitation rights?" Wukong, voice deepening: "DON'T PUSH IT, BUD!"

Eventually the Pilgrims and Guanyin catch up (the Bodhisattva heard that water break from across the sea), and see the Six Eared Macaque has completely dropped his Monkey King glamour and is trying his best to keep the real Sun Wukong's breathing steady.

Guanyin quickly gets to work; bringing Wukong to somewhere nice and warm and dry to have the baby. They suggest that the reappearance of the other parent (i.e Macaque) caused the Egg to prematurely decide to make itself known.

Bonus if this is the first time certain Pilgrims (besides a wise dragon-dragon) heard of such a thing XD

Ao Lie, excited: "It's already happening!? Congratulations!!" Wukong: "Thanks Lie, but I'd prefer to get the kid out before you all start thanking me." Zhu Bajie, oblivious: "Wait what kid!? They heck is everyone talking about?!" Tripitaka: (*hyperventilating into his hat like it's a paper bag*) Sha Wujing: "I suppose well wishes are in order! Did Brother Wukong drink from the same river and choose to decline the cure?" Wukong: "No, it's HIS fault." (*jabs thumb at Macaque*) Macaque: (*blushing, waves nervously at his mate's Pilgrim brothers*) Ao Lie, breaking the tension: "So this is your Equal in Strength you've been telling us about!" Macaque, slight smugness: "That's what you've been calling me?" Wukong, gritting teeth from pain: "Not now Mihou..."

Macaque stays at Wukong's side the whole time, even as his instincts are going nuts, snarling at the Pilgrims if they dare approach. And even when his hand was definitely broken by Wukong's grip during a really bad contraction.

The rest of the Pilgrims meditate and pray for Wukong and the baby's health. Ao Lie makes a point of chilling in his dragon form to scare off any passing creatures or people - dragons don't like being disturbed when they're laying an egg, and he imagines its the same for Stone Monkeys.

After a lot of pushing and encouragement, a tiny egg makes itself known, cracking open shortly thereafter.

What lies within?

A chirpy, chubby-faced baby monkey with glowing (Macaque starts crying then) ears and dark fur - the little thing's cries sounding indignant as if they'd been awakened from a long sleep. Guanyin makes a point to gather the citrine and amethyst-imbedded shell of the newborn for the parents to keep.

Wukong and Macaque can't even remember what they were fighting about earlier - all that matters is the clinging baby on Wukong's chest. Little thing is a bit smaller than expected due to their premature birth, but they're healthy and hungry.

The rest of the Pilgrims are allowed in after everything is cleaned up and Macaque's hand has been bandaged.

First thing out of anyone's mouth is;

Zhu Bajie: "I thought monkeys had litters?" Wukong, growling: "Don't jinx me."

So yeah, now the Journey has a newborn baby and it's dad along for the ride.

thinking about an emergency c-section for one of your kids, and satoru is absolutely a wreck, already had been dozing off at the hospital after you were admitted for labor since “his” baby was taking their sweet time to come — as you put it. and he had taken up residence on the cot beside you, having just laid down, only to find a nurse doing a nightly check on you.

it happens slowly. the medical staff multiply one by one, until there’s a dozen of them, including one nurse on top of you with her hand keeping your baby’s umbilical cord from being wrapped around the baby.

and they don’t let him come in as they wheel you to the operating room, leaving him to pace alone, wondering if he would see your baby or you again. and realizing he didn’t even get a chance to tell you he loved you.

[randoimago]

thinking about: bruno, abbacchio, mista with an S/O that's pregnant but hasn't said anything cause they keep waiting for the right moment but keeps being distracted by other stuff and it isn't until narancia uses his stand and goes "uh why do you have two heartbeats?" that it's finally brought up.

idk if anyone remembers this but about a year ago i thought that i was pregnant and had announced it but i was, in fact, not actually pregnant to my surprise and disappointment but this time it is very much real. it might sound strange but the rpc is dear to me; i've made some amazing friends and incredible memories and i couldn't wait to share the news with you all 🥺
