[Good morning Lunatia. It's one of your resident sword spirits turned not quite human gracing the screen. In hand, he holds what appears to be an egg. A very ethereal, very shiny, beautifully grey egg.]

I seem to have laid an egg. With all the other changes and strange things that happen to our bodies here I suppose it really was only a matter of time until something like this were to happen.

Now the only question is what to do with it. You see I don't have much experience with taking care of an egg. I don't believe it would be to its benefit if I were to sit on it. Nor am I aware of any nutritional needs before hatching. Do they need to be bathed regularly or rocked to sleep at night? This is why I'm turning to all of you. I'm not sure what sort of care it might need or if I'm even ready for this kind of responsibility. But I assure you I'm very committed to his or her well being.

[He turns now, revealing a companion who was just out of view until now.]

Oh yes. We're also taking suggestions for names.

Of course. When I woke up this morning it was there in bed with me. What else could that mean.

[Ahh well... Kashuu asked and now he's gotta answer.]

A godfather is someone who... looks out for the well being of their family. And provides for them through any means necessary. Not unlike what we do on our missions.

[... That doesn't answer the laying egg question at all?!]

That's why you think you laid it?

[Can birds lay eggs in their sleep? Actually, he doesn't know.]

... And you're asking me to be the godfather?

[Now that he heard Mikazuki's answer to this question, he feels... flattered? Honoured?]

[jiyuujin]

Certainly. After everything we've been through together you've really proved yourself Kashuu-dono. I can't think of anyone more capable of helping with our little nugget.

[saigawa]

[Should he... dig more into the egg laying thing? Or leave it alone? Isn't it a big deal to know what's up with their bodies?!

... But he stares, and slowly blinks for a moment before he speaks up. He's a little thrown off by the egg thing, but also? Such words are what Kashuu like to hear. Even if he's not always prepared to hear them.]

Well, of course! If you're asking, I can be the godfather for your egg.

[It's an egg, how hard can it be?]

[jiyuujin]

[Clapping his hands together.]

Marvelous. I knew you would be just the sword for the job. Now it's important that you start to form your bonds early. When do you think you could start egg sitting so she grows accustomed to you?

[She? Now it's a she. Best not to ask questions about these things because he definitely won't have answers.]

[saigawa]

So it's a girl?

[How can you tell? Is it a... actually, no, let's not go there before he get stuck thinking about how their body works. Where is Yagen when you need him?]

I can start whenever! I can make time for you and your egg.

[And well, it's not like he's formally working... Man, maybe he should find more things to fill up his time?]
