Warnings: pregnancy, domestic argument, labor, birth (graphic-ish), Angst, Cliffhanger, Pregnancy complications Summary: Reid is concerned when his girlfriend starts acting weird. The team steps in to help him out. Word Count: 1,115 Created for @spencerreidbingo

“Spence, I’ve called like three times. Please this isn’t the time to ignore my calls. MMmm, call me please,” You whimpered as you felt the pressure that had settled between your hips tighten.

“Derek,” You groaned as you called your friend. “I need you to get Reid and bring him here. Ah.”

“Hey! What’s going on?” Morgan seemed to leap to consciousness at your hum of discomfort. “Where is Spencer?”

“He went home for the night, and now he’s not answering his phone. I need him,” You relaxed as the contraction eased and you looked at your clock.

“I’ll get him, how far apart are your contractions?” You don’t know how he knew, but Derek was sharp and had known you for a long time.

“Eight to ten minutes. But I’m only supposed to be worried if they last for more than an hour.” You said taking a deep breath, anticipating his next question.

“How long have you been having them?” He asked. You heard movement over the phone and a pair of keys jingle.

“Forty- five minutes. But the first two I counted were fifteen minutes apart,” You said trying to relax your friend.

“So they’ve gotten closer together?” He asked louder than you had expected, you jumped and dropped your cellphone.

“Damnit!” You shouted in frustration. You stood up and grabbed your phone. “Sorry I dropped- Derek,” You gasped as you heard the popped then felt the gush of fluid between your legs.

“Hey!!! Stay with me, you okay? Was it another contraction already?” Derek’s voice torn you out of your terror.

“My water broke,” you said before moving as quickly as you could to the bathroom.

“I’m on my way, I’ll get Reid. Call your doctor,” Derek ordered over the phone. You mumbled something that resembled agreement before hanging up. You managed to get into your bathtub and just sat there breathing through your contractions. They had gotten closer together and the pain was almost unbearable when you heard the front door to your home slam open.

“Lil’ Mama you here!?” Derek shouted. You heard his shoes as he ran up your stairs. You would have responded but you were focused on not breathing at that moment in time. “Oh shit,” He muttered when he pushed the bathroom door open.

Sweat covered your body and you were shaking with the effort of not pushing as the pressure between your legs was almost unbearable.

“It’s okay, I’ve got you,” Derek said as he came over and helped you get out of the tub. “I called an ambulance when I saw that no one was here with you yet.”

“Where’s Spence?” You whimpered, then grunted low in your throat as a contraction rang down your legs through your toes.

“He’s almost here,” Derek said as he helped you lean over the end of the bathtub. “Where’s your kit?” You pointed to under the bathroom sink. Derek pulled out a small black box that you brought with you to every case you worked on. It had various supplies that you used as well as gloves of various sizes. He pulled out a pair and slid them on his hands.

“Ready to meet you, baby?” Morgan asked as you felt him give you the world's shortest cervical test. “They're almost here.”

“I can’t,” You panted as your contraction ended. Tears fell down your cheeks. “It’s too soon, and he’s not here.”

“Remember that case we worked in San Antonio?” Derek chuckled, you nodded your head. “You told that mom that she didn’t have the option to not be ready. It wasn’t up to her, right?”

“Fuck You!” You screamed as the urge to push took over and you bared down.

“That’s it, that’s a girl, keep going,” Derek counted to ten and you felt his fingers applying counter pressure. The contraction ended and you let out a breath of defeat as the pressure was still there. “You’re doing good, I saw the head. Almost done.” Derek’s hand rubbed your back to try and help you through the pain.

“Derek!” Spencer shouted from downstairs. You laughed as you sobbed harder. He had made it in time.

“Upstairs!” Derek called. You tensed up again and started to push, signaling Derek to count again. He reached around and grabbed your hand, guiding it between your legs. “Head’s right here, focus up,” Derek ordered as you started panting through the worst part.

“I’m here. I’m sorry,” Reid said as he used his long legs to step past the two of you and squat in front of you in the tub. He brushed your hair out of your face. “I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have left.”

“Shut Up and kiss me,” You shouted at him. He looked a bit surprised but wasted no time pressing a gentle kiss to your lips.

“This is cute and all,” Morgan interrupted your kiss as another contraction mounted. “Keep her up,” Derek said to Spencer. You gritted your teeth but couldn’t keep the scream in as your first twin slipped out and Derek caught it.

“It’s a girl,” Derek said. He fiddled with your kit and the baby, and then you heard the high pitched shriek of her first breathe. You laughed as Spencer helped you onto your butt so that you could see her.

“She’s so pink,” Reid said as he reached over your shoulder to touch her hand.

“This is the emergency medical response team!” A voice shouted from downstairs.

“Grab a towel,” Derek said to Spencer as he picked you up and lifted you fireman style. You groaned in pain as the carry was not optimal to the way your legs wanted to be spread open. “Hold on to that baby, I’ll take you down there.”

“We’re here,” You moaned as you got down the stairs.

“So we missed all the fun?” The EMT joked to try and ease the tension and stress of the situation.

“Actually they're twins,” Spencer said with a dorky grin, as he saw your daughter in your hands again.

“Well then let’s get going,” The EMT said ushering you all into the ambulance. Derek said he would drive himself there and grab your bag.

Despite the fast speed of the ambulance, your second baby was unwilling to wait for the hospital.

“It’s a boy,” The EMT said handing the baby to you, while Spencer held your daughter. “Well done, mama.”

“They’re perfect,” You whispered exhausted. The other EMT reacted instantly and grabbed your son before your hands fell away from him.

“She’s hemorrhaging!” the EMT who had delivered your son said as he grabbed some supplies and ducked between your legs.

“Hurry!” Spencer shouted up at the driver.

Title: Begin Again

Part 4 of 10(?)

Jaskier x Reader

So sorry for how long this took to get up. I’ve just been super busy. Hope everyone that reads enjoys :)

(Part 1) / (Part 2) / (Part 3)

“Oh, y/n, you can’t blame Jaskier for-”

“That’s not what hurt me, do you want me to continue or not?” You ask as you brush crumbs off the table

Yennefer stretches out in her seat as she nods for you to keep going. You lick your chapped lips as you close your eyes, taking a deep breath. What happened after he left you standing there? You don’t quite remember that part too well so you’ll move on to the next day.

“I just want to thank you for listening to this, I can’t really tell anyone what happened there. Colton wouldn’t understand, he thinks all my stories are made up and I don’t have the heart to tell him they’re all real but seeing you I’m sure he’s figuring it out”

You don’t give her time to respond before continuing.

… … … … . .

The sun begins to set and you look around the camp the woman invited you too. It looks as if everyone is turning in for the night. It’s time for you to head out, you learned what you could from these women as you waited for Yennefer to show up. You must have gotten the spell wrong, you could check your work over but part of you knows you did it right. It would be too dark to see anything now though so guess that won't be something you're going to do. You wish you could have been more helpful today, but you helped them around the camp and that is enough for today.

“I’m going to be heading back now, see if there is anything in Geralt’s things that could help us out” You say as you stretch

“Be safe and I’ll see you first light tomorrow” She puts her hand on your shoulder “We will figure this out” she smiles sweetly

“Thank you, Racheal”

It should be you giving her reassurance. Maybe she saw the defeated look on your face and you want to kick yourself for not hiding it better. You start your walk back to town with your hand on your dagger handle. The lady may be dangerous but she’s not the only thing that could cause you damage.

You don’t want to think back to the spell but you are beginning to wonder if maybe you said a word wrong but you double checked everything before even doing it and said the words properly just like Geralt taught you. Maybe it didn’t work because you aren’t a magical person. You shouldn’t be second guessing yourself now but you can’t help it. You should be staying positive and that’s exactly what you’re going to try and do.

It’s darker by the time you make it back to town. You look over at the bar wondering if you should go there and sneak a peek at Jaskier. There's a pull and you feel your feet turning you into the direction you shouldn’t be going but you turn to look over at the inn and see the shadow in the window. Your eyes widened and you there’s a flicker of hope in your chest. You can't stop the smile on your face as you race over. You almost want to cry that she’s here but you keep it inside.

You push the door open and race up the stairs. You take a deep breath before pushing the door open. Your smile falters as the world around you starts to spin. The anger is clear on the lady’s face, if looks could kill you thought. Her eyes look to be glowing red as she points a pale finger towards the bed and there's blood on her sheer dress. You expect to see Jaskier’s lifeless form on the bed but instead it’s Yennefer. You look back at her horror clear on your face.

"You really think I wouldn't know who comes and goes in this place?" She barks out "You're an idiot to think I wouldn't know"

"What did you do?" You ask glaring at her

Geralt’s standing next to the bed, his torn expression tears your heart in half. You tear your eyes away looking down at the ground. How could you have not looked around? You should have known better. The only person that could have helped is now useless. Something tugs at the back of your hair and you roll your shoulder to rid the feeling of someone standing behind because you know no one is there.

"Let's play a game? Shall we?" The lady asks with a smile "and before you start crying and wailing around, she's fine. She's just under a different spell of mine" and you nod for her to keep going "I'll give you a week to figure out what I am, and when you do I'll let your lover and friends go and you leave this town how you found it, understand?" She asks

"If I ask nicely for more time, will you give it?" You ask and she shakes her head

"You're already giving the woman of this town false hope, and that's no good. They have to move on because I will not give them what they want. They've littered the lake with waste, this is my revenge!" She rushed towards you "A week or they will all be mine, now let's go my love"

She leaves with Geralt and you rush over to Yennefer. You look her over and see her bleeding from a cut to her head. There is bruising so you know she must have fought back or maybe she got knocked over. You clean the wound as you let her know what's been going on the last couple days you've been here. You patch it up as best you could before going over to the window. Wiping at your face to rid the tears.

A week isn't enough time but you have to make it enough not just for yourself but for the woman of this town.

… … … … . .

Looking through everything you own and the boys own gave you a little insight as to what other kinds of monsters lurk around places with lakes. You stand outside looking at the buildings. There are children here so there has to be some school or library with some history on the town, right? You figure you could go ask Racheal but that's going to be a waste of time having to walk back and forth between the camp and here. You start walking along the main street looking through the windows.

You wonder about the girl, Racheal had mentioned. The girl, Sabrina, was able to break whatever spell her husband was under. If only she hadn't left, but if you were in her shoes you can understand why. Next would be the deaths of the husbands. The men did the fishing and probably left things behind and the women probably didn’t say anything about it. So the killings are obviously the revenge she wants.

You push the door open to one of the buildings that held books. Not many just a couple laying around on the floor. Children books. Gathering them up as you skimmed the titles before throwing them in your bag. You look around for more but there aren't any. You leave the build and go back to searching before stumbling upon the library. You don't need all the books just the ones that would tell you more about this town. The women should know but again you don't feel like wasting time. You pack a couple books and papers that look important before heading out.

The sound of a lute playing makes you smile, it's the tune Jaskier was playing before the lady came. You walk over to the bar and close your eyes for a moment. You know she won't let you in to see him after what happened last night but you wish you could just go inside. You close your eyes and with them closed you can see Jaskier stand before a crowd with his lute.

You think back to the time when you stood inside a hall with long tables of many royal folk seating around them and banners of the visiting royals. You would turn your head and see Jaskier singing and dancing awkwardly. A smile grows on your face. In a room full of people you would only have eyes for him and only him.

You could imagine him walking up to you, complaining of all the looks you're getting from the men. He'd make a show of putting his arm around you, pulling you close trying to show them that you're not available to them. He'd make the excuse that you deserve better than men that just want you for your good looks. Then you would share a look that made your heart squeeze. You wished you had grabbed his face and just kissed him. You know you had many chances before and you know for a fact that once this is all over you’re going to kiss, in the kiss you would pour your heart and soul into it.

"And that wonderful tune is for you my love" Jaskier's voice brought you from your thoughts "If only I could find the words to tell you how much I love you"

Your heart shatters and your vision blurs and you race from the bar to the inn. Closing the door behind you once you make it back inside. You take a moment to yourself and cover your mouth. He doesn't love her, you have to remind yourself. It's a spell, you add. You wipe your face and walk up the stairs to check on Yennefer and she's still laying there. You check her bandage before letting out a breath.

"I found some books and papers but I'm not sure if they'll be any helpful" You say to her as you sit down next to her on the bed but then quickly moved towards the ground and pulled what you had found out of the bag and got to work.

The Microdosio Tour: Two Nights with Papadosio & Friends!

Now that music venues are coming alive again with the sound of music after a long hiatus, Papadosio was back in Atlanta for a blistering, two (2) night stand (June 25th – 26th) at The Roxy. Athens, Ohio natives Papadosio made some wonderful memories while on The Microdosio Tour with some help from Atlanta natives Dollarsine (Night 1) and Space Kadet (Night 2) as the opening support. You may recall Papadosio gracing my column a few years back while they performed another two nightstands at Atlanta’s Terminal West. Check out the review from 2019’s The Road to Resonance Night 2 Papadosio featuring Space Kadet.

Atlanta’s very own David Dollar a.k.a. Dollarsine started off the weekend on The Microdosio Tour for the faithful that came to dance all night long to the smooth, groovy sounds of the night. The crowd was ready for Dollarsine to come on stage and perform his magic. Once he came out on stage, the early crowd that had gathered let him know by showing some major love his way. You could tell that many in the crowd were familiar with Dollarsine and expressed joy seeing him perform at the Roxy. Dollarsine had complete command of the crowd for the duration of his set, and he enjoyed every minute on stage that night. He ended his set featuring a new track coming off his brand-new EP, which according to Dollarsine is dropping very soon. Stay tuned to his website: www.dollarsine.com for more details! Want to check out Dollarsine? Follow this to Dollasine’s Official Soundcloud today!

Papadosio has been a favorite electronic/jam band of mine for some time now. My first time checking them out was at Bonnaroo (2016) during their Thursday set at That Tent. Their unique sound had me enthralled from the beginning. Formed back in 2006 by various band members from Ohio University, Papadosio consists of Anthony Thogmartin (vocals/production/guitar), Mike Healy (drums), Rob McConnell (bass), and Billy & Sam Brouse (two handed keyboards). Papadosio have never let me down over the years. Every time I witness their jam, I am left amazed at how well these guys are synched together and how they just let the music do all the talking. Tonight, was no exception as the band jammed through a specially crafted set list for the fans in attendance during Night 1.

Night 1 Set list

· We Are Water XL

· Utopiate >

· Shiitake >

· Utopiate

· Cue ][

· Fuse >

· Chaga

· Polygons XL >

· Cordyceps

· Euclidean Lights

· Encore: Unparalyzer

Local Atlanta darlings Space Kadet (and longtime pals of Papadosio) had the honor of opening for Papadosio’s epic second night at The Roxy. The band, Space Kadet, consists of Alex Etheridge (bass/synth/production), Rohan Prakash (drums/samples), and Thomas Garret (guitar). These guys are so much fun to watch play live. It was great seeing them play a larger venue this time around. More space for their sound to carry. Not only do they take the audience on a sonic journey through their set. You can see the band having so much fun performing for their fans (new and old alike). You can follow Space Kadet on JamBase to see if they are playing near you anytime soon. Space Kadet actually first graced my column here at Concerthopper when they opened for The Floozies / So Down / Space Kadet: Live at Variety Playhouse, so give that article a read (or re-read). Want to check out Space Kadet’s tunes? No worries. Follow this link to Space Kadet’s Official Soundcloud today!

When Papadosio came on stage and kicked off the second night of their weekender with “Cloud Found”, the crowd went absolutely nuts! And I thought the first night was incredible. Well, Papadosio stepped it up and made me question that exact thought. As they went through some great tracks like “Paradigm Shift”, “Lions Mane”, and “Madre” the crowd was entranced at every single note Papadosio played for them. Closing it out with their track “Holy Heck” was a great way to cap off an extraordinary weekend of music from Papadosio, Space Kadet, & Dollarsine!

Night 2 Set list

· Cloud Found

· 2AM >

· Fanfare for the Rain People >

· Paradigm Shift ][

· Lions Mane

· Dream Estate

· Madre ][

· Improbability Blotter

· Fire Rite XL

· Encore: Holy Heck

Bummed you missed this weekend with Papadosio? Do not worry you can still check them out this year on tour. Head over to Papadosio’s tour page and see if they are coming near you in 2021. Personally, I would suggest checking out the Resonance Music and Arts Festival that will feature three (3) sets from Papadosio during the weekend of September 16-18, 2021.

“At the beginning the new government treated its opponents very mildly; but it quickly learned the cost of such behaviour. The military cadets that the Bolsheviks had released on parole from the Winter Palace on 26 October (8 November) betrayed their trust two days later and staged an uprising. Similarly mild treatment was shown to General Krasnov, which he also repaid with treason.

Victor Serge, in his book Year One of the Russian Revolution, wrote on the events in Moscow:

The Whites surrendered at 4 p.m. on 2 (15) November. ‘The Committee of Public Safety is dissolved. The White Guard surrenders its arms and is disbanded. The officers may keep the side arms that distinguish their rank. Only such weapons as are necessary for practice may be kept in the military academies ... The MRC [Military Revolutionary Committee] guarantees the liberty and inviolability of all.’ Such were the principal clauses of the armistice signed between Reds and Whites. The fighters of the counter-revolution, butchers of the Kremlin, who in victory would have shown no quarter whatever to the Reds ... went free.

Serge comments:

Foolish clemency. These very Junkers, these officers, these students, these socialists of counter-revolution, dispersed themselves throughout the length and breadth of Russia and there organised the civil war. The revolution was to meet them again, at Iaroslav, on the Don, at Kazan, in the Crimea, in Siberia and in every conspiracy nearer home. [26]

These were the early days of revolutionary innocence. The morning after the October insurrection, on Kamenev’s initiative and in Lenin’s and Trotsky’s absence, the death penalty was abolished. When Lenin learned about this first piece of legislation he was very angry. ‘How can one make a revolution without firing squads? Do you think you will be able to deal with all your enemies by laying down your arms. What other means of repression do you have? Imprisonment? No one attaches any importance to this during a civil war when each side hopes to win.’

‘It is a mistake,’ he went on, ‘an inadmissible weakness, a pacifist illusion’, and much more. ‘Do you really think that we shall come out victorious without any revolutionary terror?’ [27]

Trotsky too had no doubt that the revolution would have to use terror to fight the counter-revolution. ‘We shall not enter the kingdom of socialism in white gloves on a polished floor’, he told the All-Russian Congress of Peasant Deputies on 3 (16) December. [28]

On 28 October (10 November), after the suppression of the revolt of the military cadets, Sovnarkom issued a decree written by Trotsky banning the Kadet Party – the main counter-revolutionary party of the bourgeoisie:

Fully conscious of the enormous responsibility for the destiny of the people and the revolution now being placed on the soldiers of soviet power, the Council of People’s Commissars decided that the Kadet Party, being an organisation for counter-revolutionary rebellion, is a party of enemies of the people. [29]

Trotsky declared:

We have made a modest beginning with the arrest of the Kadet leaders ... In the French Revolution the Jacobins guillotined better men ... for opposing the people’s will. We have executed nobody and are not about to do so. [30]

Alas, this promise did not hold. To organise a struggle against counter-revolution, on 7 (20) December 1917, Sovnarkom established the Cheka, the All-Russian Extraordinary Commission to Fight Counter-Revolution and Sabotage. At first its staff was small, its resources limited, and the few death sentences it passed were on common criminals. M.I. Latsis, a member of the Cheka in 1918, states that during the first six months of its existence the Cheka had 22 people shot. [31]

The revolutionary terror in Russia, like its predecessor during the great French revolution of 1789, was a reaction to foreign invasion and the immensity of the threat to the revolution. The Paris terror of 2 September 1793 followed the Duke of Brunswick’s proclamation threatening foreign invasion and ruthless repression of the revolution. In Russia too it was foreign invasion, starting with the victories of the Czechoslovak troops over the Red Army in 1918, that threatened the greatest danger to the Soviet Republic. On 20 June the popular Bolshevik orator, Volodarsky, was assassinated by counter-revolutionaries. On 30 August an attempt was made on Lenin’s life. He was badly wounded and for a few days was in a critical condition. Another Bolshevik leader, Uritsky, the president of the Petrograd Cheka, was murdered. The Red Terror was unleashed in retaliation. On 2 September 500 hostages were shot in Petrograd.

Whereas between September 1917 and June 1918 the Cheka had executed 22 people, in the second half of 1918 more than 6000 executions took place. [32] In the three years of civil war, 1918-20, 12,737 people were shot. [33]

Compared with the White Terror, however, the Red Terror was mild. Thus in Finland alone, in April 1918, between 10,000 and 20,000 people were slaughtered by the counter-revolutionaries. [34] With complete justification Lenin told the Seventh Congress of Soviets on 5 December 1919:

The terror was forced on us by the terror of the Entente, the terror of mighty world capitalism, which has been throttling the workers and peasants, and is condemning them to death by starvation because they are fighting for their country’s freedom. [35]

Trotsky expressed the same idea in a speech on 11 September 1918:

Now that the workers are being charged with committing cruelties in the civil war we must reply, instructed by our experience: the only unpardonable sin which the Russian working class can commit at this moment is that of indulgence towards its class enemies. We are fighting for the sake of the greatest good of mankind, for the sake of the regeneration of mankind, to drag it out of darkness, out of slavery ... [36]

Marx himself provided his followers with the clearest guide on the subject of terror. In the autumn of 1848, denouncing ‘the cannibalism of the counter-revolution’, he proclaimed that there was ‘only one means to curtail, simplify and localise the bloody agony of the old society and the bloody birthpangs of the new, only one means – the revolutionary terror’. [37]

Trotsky, following the same line of argument, wrote in 1920:

The problem of revolution, as of war, consists in breaking the will of the foe, forcing him to capitulate and to accept the conditions of the conqueror ...

The degree of ferocity of the struggle depends on a series of internal and international circumstances. The more ferocious and dangerous is the resistance of the class enemy who have been overthrown, the more inevitably does the system of repression take the form of a system of terror. [38]”

I tore my foot open in the car one time, on whatever sharp thing was under the driver’s seat, could be that. I’ve only been to the emergency room once, and that was for an illness thing when I was very smol. I’m most worried about injuring my hands by typing, carpal tunnel and such.

do you have any obsessions right now?

Surprisingly enough, most of my energy these days is into mine and my friends’ d&d characters! They are so good :’)

But Howl’s Moving Castle is a constant, and Welcome To Night Vale is up there.

do you tend to hold grudges against people who have done you wrong?

Not really. I am good at flipping situations around and figuring out why they might have done what they did, and letting it roll off. Certain things I won’t forgive, though, and certain people. Also I am much less forgiving for people who have done my friends wrong. *glares at that guy who was an asshole to my bf over air hockey during college orientation over four years ago*

in a relationship?

Yes! I have a boyfriend, Felix, and a girlfriend, @becomingdanni
