Hecro: *suddenly showed up with Drix* I just got the call frm the doc. How's Oz?
Thrax; He's resting
Drix: How did the birth go? Is it a girl or a boy?
Thrax; 8hesitated8
Hecro: *sees the "egg"* Wht's tht?
Thrax; Ya really need to ask
Hecro: *blinked* Dont tell me...THT's ur kid?
Thrax; 8nods8
Drix: Interesting, bt...how is this possible?
Thrax; The AI
Drix: *studies the egg* It seems tht the AI has programmed the womb to imitate the physiology of the city. If I'm not mistaken, there r some cells tht do exhibit this features
Hecro: Man, does tht mean Oz is going to lay eggs frm now on?
Thrax; 8shrugged8
Hecro: Oi vey, this is tough *scratched his head*
Thrax; 8bit his lip8
Drix: Its interesting tht his birth coincides with Angel's birth. Everyone is celebrating like it was the 4th of July out there
Thrax; Unlike humans gargoyle females can only lay three in her life time
Hecro: So I've heard. Hopefully the nxt time they mate they'll get lucky again
Thrax; 8nods8
Drix: How long until the eggs hatches? The gargoyles, I mean
Thrax; Hard to say, 5-10 years maybe
Hecro: Oi vey, tht's long. I hope ur egg doesnt wait tht long to hatch
Thrax; 8shuttered8
Drix: Tht would be the last Oz would want
Thrax; And me
Ozzie: *as if by instincts, stirred a little before wrapping his arms ard the egg, giving it body warmth*
Thrax; 8stroked his mate's face8
Hecro: I take it the birth wasnt as peacefully painful as it should? *sees the crust ard the egg*
Thrax; 8shook his head8
Drix: Must hurt reli bad then *touched the egg a little* It must hv a reli tough impact on his birth canal. Its so...crusty, so...hard
Thrax; 8growled8
Drix: Hey, just stating the facts
Thrax; 8snorts8
Hecro: So, any way of telling if it's a boy or a girl?
Thrax; Not sure
Drix: I hv a good feeling it could be a boy
Thrax; Why's that?
Drix: *shrugged* Just a feeling of a medic, I guess
Thrax; It doesn't matter to me only that the baby's heathly
Hecro: Yeah, I guess ur right. Well, I guess he's OK. I'll let the guys knw the news *stroke Oz's head n kissed his forehead before leaving*
Thrax; 8sat by his mate8
Drix: Well, I'm going too. Cya round *waved goodbye before leaving as well*
Thrax; C'ya
Ozzie: *curled ard the egg, almost purring as he slept with the egg in his arms, trying to give it as much warmth as possible for it to hatch*
Thrax; 8wrapped the blanket round his mate and his child8
Ozzie: *smiled in his sleep*
Thrax; 8smiled softly8
