please excuse text.

i have question.

about egg children from before. some number of other people were having also, yes?

possible other people is happy because of feeling relief for no breeding or possible we become used to crazy happening in LUNATIA and so now there be no more shock... and no more need for question? i no know.

but i want know. people having more education and mind than i have answer? people who know magic? doctor things?

[ ah, well, dextera can sort of understand what she’s asking, and although he’s reluctant to admit to having also laid an egg, he wants to share his perspective. ]

Do you mean to ask, were the eggs some of us carried ever real offspring?

[lumberlady]

[believe her, if she knew how to anon properly she'd be anon'ing... being from 1630 bites right about now]

yes, like this.

was child ever real child? human child or JINBA child or other species child.

or was always flower? always joke?

[passio]

[ the use of the word joke gives him a little perspective. ]

I don’t think it was ever real. Some people were able to create eggs that wouldn’t normally be able to. Whatever was happening to our bodies, I think it might have been like hens laying without a rooster.

[lumberlady]

so we are become like chicken?

just body make egg with no father, only nature?

Konoha-san, I hope you're doing well. If it helps... those eggs only had flowers in them from the start. I felt no other life but those in them when I encountered them.


[ She didn't lay one herself, but.. ]

[lumberlady]

greetings.

[can that count as an answer plz?]

FELT like feel with magic?

Why did I text font that... god

[foxtouched]

Mm. It's part of my power... So I knew they had no other life in them at all but those of a flower.

Were you hoping otherwise?

i tricked u into it

[lumberlady]

so was always just LUNATIA 's joke. never real child. i see.

["of course I was", she wants to say... but she doesn't want to potentially hear that hoping for that sort of thing here was wrong, or strange, or whatever it might be to people from other worlds and backgrounds, so-]

i just want to be knowing. difference is important.

[voice bc she knows it's easier for Konoha.]

If everyone who had an egg had that egg hatch into a plant, then I think it was always going to be a plant.

Eggs aren't exactly normal to begin with for mammals anyway. Something was always a bit off...

[...mmm......]

I'm sorry, Konoha. I know how excited you were...

voice, un: tigerpoet

[tigerpoet]

Konoha... Do you want a hug?

[He's not a person who knows magic or doctor things. He's just Konoha's friend, and he can sense her sadness.]

[lumberlady]

[text because... it wouldn't be fair for her to use voice right now, she's not trying to make herself look pitiful ok]

i do not know every person so... should check i was thinking. i only know some number.

is no need to apologize. will be fine! now i know of GONTA 's midwife skill, and can practice labor in safe place like LUNATIA so is good actually.

[lumberlady]

greetings sensei.

is not needing comfort, no worry! i is just wanting to know answer. difference is important so action will change with answer.

[tigerpoet]

I see. That's good to hear.

[Even if he doesn't quite believe that she's 100% okay.]

I don't think they were ever real children, no.

[hopticulture]

[oh!! hm...well, Haru is keen enough to read between the lines so...shifting to text.]

Well, it's good to know that it was a learning experience for you and your husband, but it's also okay to be disappointed too. Thinking you're pregnant with a kid and going through the motions, only to have it be an egg with a plant inside is pretty upsetting.

What did you wind up doing with your plant?

[passio]

Only temporarily. Probably. I haven’t had any difficulties with eggs since then.

[lumberlady]

[she can't think of what to say to the first part. saying "yes" isn't right, because it was more than pretty upsetting. but saying that is too depressing.

so!]

i put in earth for to grow.

do not know what is best for egg shell. possible should bury or burn. not decided now.

[lumberlady]

no worry! was good if thinking about good points, for practice.

sensei also say. i see.

[lumberlady]

is you thinking we will make egg again? i no know dragon breeding season, only JINBA season, but if MOONBLESSED is making egg when dragon is making egg...

[hopticulture]

Eggshells make pretty good fertilizer! Calcium is good for a lot of plants. You can crush it into a fine powder and mix it into the soil.

[SHE'S......trying to be helpful.]

[tigerpoet]

I see. I hope the labor was not too difficult? My wife had a few difficult births with our children.

[lumberlady]

i no want to crush it.

[lumberlady]

was not so bad! possible is because was egg and not jinba baby i is not knowing surely, but.

GONTA has high midwife skill and now i could see, so i will not worry for future birth. it was good practice.

[hopticulture]

Right right that makes sense...

You could just bury it near the plant then? I'm sure it would have the same effect.

[tigerpoet]

That's good. Gonta is very talented.

If you change your mind about wanting a hug, let me know, okay?

[lumberlady]

that is possibly good idea. two purpose.
