I've seen mutuals posting what their MC's would be like as parents, and they're all so adorable 😭💕

I wanted to join in with Lyla! More to come with their kiddos 💛

Plus, I saw a really cute outfit on Pinterest and wanted to draw Lyla wearing it as her maternity clothes! Reference below 👇

I feel like if Phee was pregnant, she and Tech would act like how my parents acted during each of my mom’s pregnancies.

Phee would just be chilling, doing her own thing and going on as usual pretty much up until it’s time to have the baby (and gets annoyed if she’s told to slow down or take a break), and basically making the whole thing look effortless. Then you have Tech freaking out any time he has to go somewhere for longer than an average workday, constantly asking if she’s comfortable, nearly having a heart attack when he sees her doing things around the house, and tripping over himself to get whatever food she might be craving.

The only feelings & fears regarding feyre's deadly pregnancy I'm interested to hear about are FEYRE'S, not cassian's, not nesta's and certainly not rhysand's

[shithowdy]

just want everyone to know that i am irrevocably maternity pantspilled, i don't understand why they don't manufacture normal trouser bands like this. it is so fucking logical. our guts expand and contract all day.

i bought these the other day for general low-stress wear (they are a nice and gender neutral shape, up to size 20w us for these ones) and i am already buying another pair. sitting in every other type of trouser causes extreme nerve pain as the band digs in except this. i now can sit in a chair and know peace. if you have nerve damage or endo/pcos/etc or IBS bloating or just fucking hate the feeling of bands digging into your waist this is it. i am telling you. grabbing you by the shoulders and shaking you. ignore the branding and get ready for all your ads to think you are expecting, try the damn pants, and join me in peace.

We'll Get Through This Together

Tears were streaking down her face in fast rivers as she stared at the counter of her bathroom unable to breathe much less speak as she looked down on that small object that was saying her life was about to change forever

A change she most defiantly was not ready for

Time seemed to just freeze around the trembling woman having no idea how long she had been standing there before finally choking out the saddest wail dropping to the floor unable to take in air as her hands scrambling for her phone when it beeped from the jacket pocket seeing the turtles name popping up as she opened it; his simple ‘Hey’ set off a whole new emotion

Her fingers practically shook as she tried to text back but the happy response wouldn’t type itself

‘I need you… please hurry my place!!’

She waited what felt like an eternity before his predictable reply popped up unable to answer him typing faster terrified the second he tried to call her

‘Please you need to get to my place fast… please, please please you need to get here!!!’

She was shaking so bad the phone fell from her hands as she sobbed pushing herself into the corner unsure how he was going to take this… What if he found out and abandoned her too? What if he showed up and was angry at her for letting this happen?

What if this caused her to lose the only person who she had left…? To lose the only family she had in this world over her stupidity?

He continued to call her over and over his text messages becoming increasingly worried when she wouldn’t answer or message him back but the tears made it hard to see and her voice wouldn’t come out even if she had been able to answer

Less then ten minutes after the first text she had sent the sound of his heavy weight landed on her fire escape and the slam of her window being thrown open as he rushed into the apartment yelling her name startled her out of her panicked state; just the sound of his deep voice had her stumbling up and running to him a complete mess and blubbering like a child feeling him grab her in a tight hug she just dropped

The tightness of his arms around her shaking body had her clinging to the turtle for dear life knowing at any second he would be gone and she would be alone

But he was the only one she could possible reach out to; the only one she trusted in hopes he wouldn’t break her further

She could hear him asking what was wrong from what sounded like a great distance away, he had to be thinking her ex-boyfriend had shown back up and hurt her and that growl that carried in his voice sounded so terrifying she barely managed to look up at him

She was lost and afraid; seeing that his touch was fast to become gentle caressing her cheek coxing her to tell him what happened but this time his voice was soft and kind, carefully wiping her tears away with his thumb cradling her face in his hands and kissing both flushed cheeks telling her it would be okay before she lifted her hand

Slowly the woman looked at the item in her grasp unsure when she had grabbed it but when his eyes finally fell on it he laughed at her asking if that was what she was crying about

There in her palm was a small white and pink stick

The turtle took it as she scooted back from him her hand over her mouth continuing to let her tears fall as he looked at the cute item mumbling as he took in the two dark markings on each of the windows before he suddenly noticed the writing under his thumb shifting his fingers enough to read it and connect the dots

That was when the color in his face drained and his breath left him

“I- I’m pregnant…” his wide eyes looked up realizing exactly what was wrong before slipping down to stare at her belly for the longest time then meeting her eyes as she tried to cover herself starting to feel disgusted in herself “I can’t be I-? T-This wasn’t supposed to happen! I was just starting… we were-”

She was screaming in anger at this point grabbing the stick from his fingers and throwing it hard against the wall but before he could even say a word her stomach pitched and the color left her cheeks before she was running for the bathroom almost not making it before she was fighting to hold down somewhat of the food from dinner

She had just gotten away from her abusive ex-boyfriend Travis months ago after he had attacked her for being out when he got home; he had gone out to the bar with his friends and she had just wanted to get away from the apartment and see her sweet turtle friends walking home when he saw her

He had beaten her right there on the street in front of her building to the point she thought he was going to kill her only for the man to run when the man next door came out to see the attack, he was arrested two days later while she stayed with her friends to be safe

Weeks had gone by with no word from him and with the rest the woman was back to herself in no time deciding to go home and get ready to return to work the following day telling the turtle who insisted on staying that she would be fine

They had just brought her home and after bidding them goodbye she was hurrying to straighten up and cook dinner only to be assaulted by a force of unrelenting anger while she was cleaning up his mess; she thought she was home alone and hadn’t even heard him coming up behind her until he had slammed her into the counter throwing her to the floor as everything went dark

She couldn’t even remember what had transpired before coming to seeing him on top of her with his hands around her neck, her strangled screams for help had went unanswered until one of the males she trusted with her life had returned having brought her forgotten purse that he had spotted on the couch back knowing she would need it the next day

He saved her but for once was just a moment too late; what had happened was just ending and it took her hugging the turtle so tightly to stop him from murdering the bastard he had drug off of the woman in order to hold the sobbing female remembering he had held her until the police showed up

After he had taken her to the lair not giving her much of a choice where she stayed until him and his brother’s had wiped everything of his from her home and moved it to her new place far from where he knew where to find her

Three months… she finally had gotten her life on track with the help of her four mutant friends; finally the woman had her own place where she felt safe, had found a job she not only loved but was going somewhere with the company, she was about to start school next month to get her degree, and her and the turtle currently in her living room had just started to explore the idea of being more then friends

Life had just turned around

How could she have ruined all of this… why hadn’t she been able to stay conscious and tried to fight him harder-?

Why hadn’t she realized sooner that she wasn’t just suffering from the flu when her nausea hadn’t gone away after she started feeling a bit better… her co-worker had been the one to suggest the damn test but she never imagined it would actually show anything

As she kneeled on the bathroom floor there was no sounds from her living room, she was about to call out to him needing a water but just as his name left her lips sounding so pathetic she heard the main window close and again the apartment was silent feeling her heart drop into her stomach just knowing he had left her

Like she had thought he had left her

A soft sob echoed around her before jumping as a green hand brushed her hair back and lifted her chin shushing the upset woman softly

Looking over quickly she found him kneeling beside her wiping her face with a warm rag taking such care as to be his gentlest; finally handing her a bottled water the male instructed her to drink it slowly before taking a seat against the counter behind where she was, it didn’t take long before he was rubbing her back looking at the test in his hand and the expression on his face told her what he was thinking “It’s positive-”

He blamed himself

Her tears started to build up again sniffling as she tried to force her voice out “I’m sorry… I’m so- so sorry” her voice broke as she held her stomach having no clue what she was going to do.

“No don’t go starting that! This isn’t your fault” she looked at him going to argue but just as quickly as she started to lash out at herself he pulled the female into his arms holding her tight as he shushed her again this time rocking her as she cried into his chest nuzzling her head as she finally wrapped her arms around him whispering out his next words as he comforted her “It’s not your fault baby… it’s going to be okay I got you”

How long he sat on that cold bathroom floor didn’t seem to matter they both stayed there; the turtle just looking at the test, his slow breathing and steady heart beat soothing her into a shocked calm while he petted her hair seeing although she was upset her hand tenderly laid over her belly

She couldn’t bare the idea of an abortion it wasn’t the child’s fault so why would she punish it for existing… and as crazy as it sounded she didn’t want to just give her baby into the system where the child might bounce in and out of foster care

But - she couldn’t support a baby; hell she couldn’t even support herself how was she going to care for a child

His own thoughts raced unsure what to do to help not even sure if she wanted to talk until finally he tossed the test on the counter pulling her up with him then carrying his friend to the bedroom lying down with her remaining silent as she curled into his chest and for a while he was sure she had passed out against him

This had to have just wiped her energy

He nodded off for a bit always stirring occasionally to check on her only to find she hadn’t moved gently covering her up with a blanket kissing her head then dosing back off slowly keeping his arm around her

Hours passed by almost too quickly until dawn started to lighten the sky outside the window but she hadn’t rested her mind racing over everything until it all became too much

He suddenly jumped as some time later she moved to fast sitting up brushing her tangled hair back in a bit of a nervous panic that had him shifting to sit up leaning his shell on the headboard half asleep but let her sit for a bit just wanting to be there for support “What am I going to do…? I can’t be pregnant I just can’t – I don’t want a baby by him…” she started to freak out again but the jolt of her suddenly choking had her leaning over the side of the bed reaching for her trash bin

He was starting to see her being emotional seemed to be the trigger for her morning sickness now but still said nothing grabbing her water from the side table whispering for her to breathe before he got up going to look and see if she had some crackers or something light to help with the nausea

He had to take a deep breath before coming back to see her at the mirror looking over her belly that now being uncovered was starting to show looking at him with the most hopeless expression when he moved further into the room standing behind her

“What am I going to do what if he finds out… what if he-!?”

“He won’t” even with his own uncertainty he realized he needed to be her rock; a soft smirk came over his lips as he kissed the woman’s head delicately bringing her to sit in his lap wanting the woman to rest before she made herself sick again kissing at the soft skin of her neck “He isn’t going to find out anything… and you’re not going to tell him or anybody who knows the bastard”

She turned looking to him in pure confusion even as the large mutant placed his chin on his friends shoulder “What-? Look this isn’t going to be something I can just hide in a few months I’m going to be- huge…” her words stopped as his large hand gently came over her belly sighing before he gave a small smile

The males bright eyes on the small belly as he carefully handled it seeming to be coming to terms with what he was going to do

She turned more looking up at him her mouth slightly agape trying to tell him this wasn’t something she wanted to push onto him but no words managed to come as the turtle leaned in kissing her lips softly his forehead pressing to hers saying it with no hesitation “You heard me… we’ll get through this together no matter what. I’m going to be there for both of you I promise”

~~~ ~~~ ~~~

She nervously grabbed the bag she had packed that morning from her chair heading out the door almost as fast as she had came in it just minutes ago needing to see her turtle boyfriend who had made this whole traumatic ordeal worth experiencing since the night she told him he had become very attentive over the last few weeks

More so then she could have ever asked

It didn’t matter how busy he had gotten between training and protecting the city every day he was there to check on her and the baby she was struggling to accept even helping if she needed it; he had even gone so far as to stay the night several times when she did in order to hold her together

But that anxiousness and uncertainty she felt had almost dissipated after the second week of him being at her side; waking up one night to find him with his face pressed to her stomach talking so softly to the little bean growing inside her just after her first doctor’s visit was a warm memory she never wanted to forget

They had found out she was fourteen weeks along but the doctor had been unable to see the baby well enough because the child was curled up in an odd position almost hiding it seemed but when he had gotten to see the ultrasound photo while holding her as she pointed out the tiny form that his eyes had immediately spotted she could see it in an instant

He was already in love with the baby

Today she had gotten a follow up ultrasound in order to hopefully see more of the baby and had the results to show him having stopped off at the store for a few things in order to calm her mind but now; just like the night she found out she felt that fear rising in her chest, but like he always did just as she got on the bus and her mind was dragging her into those dark thoughts he had called to check on her

Just seeing his screensaver had her forgetting her troubles

“What happened!?! You promised to call me- it’s almost three hours later” his voice revealing just how anxious he was just like her actually pulled a smile to her face calming her nerves before she looked around making sure nobody was too close to her

“I uh… I just got back from the doctors office I’m sorry - I’ll be there in a little bit I’m coming to see you right now”

The line went silent on his end for a moment but that just told her he had probably moved somewhere for a bit of privacy away from anyone in hearing range knowing he hadn’t told his family yet wanting to be sure nothing was wrong with her or the baby before telling anybody the news “Everything okay? Is the baby doing good?”

“Well-” his low tone made her look at the picture she had been clutching in her hand for the last hour not wanting him to find out over the phone, not for something this important she also couldn’t bare to think he’d back out now “Doctor said everything looks great completely healthy - I’ll tell you more when I get there” his irritated growl actually made her giggle out loud as she realized he was acting just like a worried father already placing the photo in its envelope before biting her lip “I promise I’ll be there soon… I love you”

Her face went red when she realized those words left her lips not hearing him on the other end she quickly hung up part of her thinking it was way too soon for her to have ever said those three words but the smile on her face was just proof she had said them in all loving truth

Once she reached her stop she walked as quickly as possible towards the garage checking to be sure she wasn’t being followed before slipping through the door and locking it behind her then hurrying towards the back getting anxious just to tell him what was going on

The elevator ride didn’t last too long but she was sure it had never moved drawing in a slow breath giving herself a pep talk trying to remind herself it was all going to be okay before jumping as she heard the loud ‘ding’ above her and the door was slipping open

The warmth and light of the lair was enough for her to calmly step off into the main area getting ready to call out to him as she moved to drop her stuff on the couch but before she could was caught in a tight loving hug physically just relaxing as her arms went around him nuzzling into the turtle’s neck as her loving boyfriend held her scenting the woman

She hadn’t noticed it but he was always telling her how the moment he had seen her that night her scent was off but in a good way – had he realized what it was he may have known she was carrying before she had found out

“Tell me everything! Are there pictures? Was he able to see if the baby was a-”

Patting his arm fast shushing urgently to silence him before they could be caught she took his hand as he grabbed her bags off her shoulder and quickly pulled the woman off to his room closing the door and locking it while she was digging through her pack to pull out a small outfit in his color with the cutest little turtles brandishing it against her growing belly hearing him laugh as he took in the tiny onesie before he was cradling her bump with both hands

A small kiss to her head had the woman holding up the envelope but feeling the anxiety raising as he reached for it made the woman pull it to her chest “Before I show you… please promise me-”

“Hey; I’m not going anywhere… now how’s our baby?” he sat down on the bed scooting back to give her room calmly waiting until she handed him the envelope seeing her playing with her fingers knowing the nerves were eating away at his mate “So the baby is healthy… there were no problems” her nod seemed to relax his shoulders as she pulled her purse to her watching as he opened the pastel green envelope pulling out the several sonograms slowly shifting through them

His smile was infectious seeing the pride within his eyes as he took in the tiny form in one of the black and white pictures before shifting to the next his eyes squinting before reaching over nearly knocking over the lamp as he tried to turn it on looking at the photo with a better light

His eyes widened almost comically before he turned to look at her holding it up “A and B…?” her eyes had already filled with tears making him move taking her hands in his; his eyes showing every emotion between fear, worry, and happiness as he looked at the photo again “What does that mean?”

He fell silent as she held up the second matching outfit with a sad smile seeing the turtle finally got it before finally saying what she had been waiting to the whole time since seeing the sonogram screen

“It’s twins Daddy-”

He practically jumped from his bed the picture in hand pacing making her think the worse before he turned with the biggest grin whooping from his excitement so loudly it had his brothers coming to check on him calling out he’d explain later

The woman was just watching him as he turned coming back to the bed capturing her in a tight hug “I love you… Oh I love you so much” a chuckle left the male as he started kissing her cheeks then her lips so lovingly before kneeling in front of her nuzzling at her bump pressing several kisses to the growing middle “Twin! I get two- we’re having two babies!”

He was almost trembling in his happiness and for a moment she thought she saw tears in his eyes before he was nuzzling against her bump whispering softly to the two lives she was carrying

 “I guess we got a lot to do then to be ready for them… But first please let me go tell them!”

She had only managed to nod still in shock as she watched the happy turtle practically bursting with happiness before he flung the door open yelling for his family then coming back quickly picking her up with the pictures and outfits taking her downstairs with him

Her heart was pounding the moment she saw his brothers hurrying to see what was going on her chest tightening at the knowing smirk on his father’s lips somehow already knowing what was coming before her boyfriend held up not just one but both little outfits with the biggest smile

“Hope you guys are ready to be uncles”

Once those words left his lips the room went quiet all three of the other turtles thinking he was joking until she held up the picture then – they exploded and the reaction was almost better than his

“You have got to be pulling our legs”

“Dude you are so lying… you liars!”

“There’s no way! Let us see those-”

They came over looking at the pictures as one of the turtles had took them from her hands looking at the two little forms she pointed out before there was another uplifting explosion of joy getting so many hugs and having to show Splinter once she managed to get the pictures back

His hug had brought tears for the woman hugging him just as tight as she cried into his shoulder

For once she couldn’t remember why she had been so scared once her boyfriend was holding onto her as the family talked about all they could do to prepare for the twins

The brother’s talking over all the furniture they could make, how to paint the nursery, how they could get anything and everything the babies could ever need

It didn’t matter to them and now she had wished they had told the guys sooner because like him the support was there all of them offering her assistance in whatever she needed

This – this was what was going to get her through

She had her family by her side

im actually liking the Randall and Julie duo this season because i had no clue what they were gonna do with his character jumping off from how insane he acted throughout s2. but whoever pitched older brother to Julie dynamic was smart af, it connects their shared trauma from s2 and helps relieve some of that parental pressure off Julie's shoulders. They have Elgin her age as a friend, but Randall w that brother figure energy actually worked really well and was really unexpected. Good writing from the From writers once more they always surprise me in the best ways, like the writing in the show is just so well done and natural.

[asparklethatisblue]

Some stuff for Joys of Misfortune because someone keeps drawing me into talking and thinking about it over and over ;3;

First one is from the fic, second one is post canon James and Louisa being tiny

[luvrodite]

a draft from a few days ago. thinking about dad!jason thanks to sunnie and just. how stressed that poor man about your safety and comfort. you so much as breathe wrong he's alert.

anyway i'm thinking about how one night, after a long week of running around trying to get everything sorted – the crib you guys had wanted wasn't available and you'd said it was okay but he'd seen the downturn of your mouth so he's been trying to get the materials together to make the exact same one, and even though he's cut back slightly on patrol and he knows steph is capable, he can't help but worry about the kids he's been trying to keep an eye on, and his body seems to give out as soon as he hits the mattress that night so when he wakes up and doesn't hear your breathing next to him or feel the weight of your body – he panics.

he stumbles out of bed half asleep and nearly crashes into the doorframe, fear threatening to grip him in a chokehold. he's already imagining the worst possibilities but then –

oh.

you peer over your shoulder curiously at him, barefoot and still in your soft sleep shorts, the material of your shirt rising over your growing belly.

safe.

he blinks, rapidly, swallowing to ease the dryness of his throat. burning eyes fall to the open flame on the stove in front of you, the metal skewer you're holding with a marshmallow on the end, edges golden. there's traces of sugar on your bottom lip, and he heaves out a haggard breath, adrenaline still buzzing in his veins with nowhere to go.

"you okay?" you ask carefully and he lowers himself into a crouch, dropping his head into his hands.

"sweetheart, you can't do that," he groans, the complaint muffled. he hears the soft patter of your feet against the floor and your hand splays over his back, a grunt falling from your lips as you join him, carefully kneeling by his side. "i think i just lost ten years off my life."

"i just wanted a snack," you say quietly, and he can hear the pout in your voice. he looks up and you're frowning at him. he reaches out to take your hand in his.

"you could've woken me. i woke up and i didn't see you and–" he cuts the sentence there.

it's true that he's made strides since the both of you got together. he's come far from the man who feared sleeping in the same bed with you, worried about accidentally reacting in a half-awake state and hurting you – but the baby has brought back some of that fear.

you've seen it in the way he tenses in a crowd, a hand always at your back, eyes scanning the perimeter tenfold to when it used to only be the both of you. he refuses to let you carry anything over a certain weight, and you're almost 70% certain that he's employed the rest of his family in keeping an eye on you when he can't (you'd have to let tim know his disguises needed some work).

you soften then, shuffling closer to press your mouth against his. he can taste the caramelised sugar on your tongue, a fleeting brush that lingers in his mouth when you pull away.

"i'm here," you assure him. "we're okay."

he tips his head forward to press it against your shoulder, letting out a quiet groan. his heart still feels like there's a grip on it, and he has no interest in moving from this spot until it settles once more. you're content to let him, he finds, a hand brushing over the nape of his neck soothingly.

he's in the middle of counting his breaths when something prods at his lips.

"wha-" marshmallow fluff is stuffed into his mouth, and he makes a garbled sound as it gives under his teeth, sticky, overly sweet.

"stop trying to feed me that shit!" he protests, when he's swallowed and you stifle a laugh, pinching his nose playfully.

"i have a message from our baby," you say, struggling to keep a straight face. "they told me they don't like it when their dad is upset, so you have to eat it, it'll make you feel better."

"our baby told you that," he echoes flatly, unimpressed. you nod, raising your eyebrows pointedly in a look so smug it makes his teeth ache.

"you wouldn't want to upset the baby, would you?"

on the floor of your kitchen, you have a staring contest. jason is the first to blink, and your resultant smile makes up for the artificial sweetness that he swallows with a grumble, leaning forward to bite the rest of the marshmallow off your fingertips, nipping at your fingers for good measure.

“no,” he sighs, and knows it’s the first of many demands he’ll be unable to deny. “no, i guess not.”

doing a good job of being zen today not looking at any news like it's outta my hands now, anxiety is unproductive, just chill! then the moment my beloved long time barista opened the drive thru window he's like "HANGING IN THERE??? IF WE CAN JUST TAKE NEVADA I THINK WE'LL BE OK" and I'm like ANDREW STOP

[etirabys]

me: goddamn, I reviewed some fiction I wrote merely 4 months ago and it feels like it was written by a completely different person with way more life in them. the past months have been rough. I need to stop waiting around taking it easy, waiting for my energy to come back. I should just do the hard things I'm putting off

brain: like rereading and reviewing Nick Lane's dense book on the origin of unicellular life in hydrothermal vents

me: noooo anything but that

[charlotte-family-apologist]

may I have some of your Suchin head canons please? 🥹

Of course!

She’s not insecure. Like at all. Nervous? Anxiety-ridden? Embarrassed? Absolutely, but insecure? Never. She’s confident in her abilities and likes how she looks.

Refuses to wear shorts or any skirt above the knee. Pants and long skirts all the way. Doesn’t really have a reason, just doesn’t like them.

Loves a good tank top though.

Clothing stealer 100%. She didn’t own many casual clothes so most of them were taken from Kenshi’s closet.

Her Japanese wasn’t that good when she and Kenshi met, conversational at best.

Her ass cannot dance 😭 she will trip over her own feet and fall onto the floor. Her battle skill does not help, in fact it makes her lack of dancing ability even more embarrassing.

Rip Suchin you would’ve loved arguing with people online.

Takes cold, short showers.

Genuinely never saw herself being a mother. The only reason she kept Takeda is because she didn’t realize she was pregnant until late into the pregnancy. Though if anything bad were to happen to him it’d be a blood bath.

The type of person to talk to kids the way she talks to adults but with some self-censorship. This is why Takeda freaked out a lot of the Shirai Ryu when he first joined, he was talking like an incredibly blunt, awkward, paranoid adult.

More on that- while she censored herself a bit if asked she wouldn’t sugar coat it. (“Where do babies come from?” “Sex.” Sorta thing)

Refused to answer any questions about Kenshi or her past. Takeda quickly learned not to ask.

[here-comes-the-moose]

So as someone who has several family members who know WAY too many things about medical stuff and who herself knows a lot about medical things (yes there is a doctor in the family and yes anxiety runs in our family why do you ask?), I feel like if Phee was pregnant, not only would Tech be a typical panicking first time dad who is researching car seats like he’s going to write a peer-reviewed paper, but he would probably also making himself extremely stressed by continuing to research pregnancy and childbirth.

[heardatmedschool]

“What a stress test is for the heart, pregnancy is for the pancreas.”

About gestational diabetes.

the "haha omg cursed mpreg shrek x sonic male pregnancy is so freaky and gross" crowd is going to throw up and shit themselves when i finally work up the energy to draw my pregnant karkat ideas.
