what kind of baby even is this

[hellofist]

Who: Steph and Cass and Tonbaby
What: Steph and Cass get a Tonberry when their egg hatches. Hi...larity ensues?
When: May 10
Where: Steph's room,
Rating: Possibly R for attempted stabbing?


Cassandra finds the egg first, of course. It's in her room, seemingly harmless, and there's a note, so of course it's Cass who finds it. She doesn't even attempt to read it because it has Stephanie's name on it too and that's good enough. She just collects the egg and the note and walks down the stairs instead of scaling the wall, because what if she dropped it? That might be bad.

Or the beginning of a big breakfast. Probably bad, though. Balancing the egg in one arm, she knocks on Steph's door to be let in and tries very hard not to think about the fact that she can't just walk right in. Some days, she really misses the apartment in the city.

The plan had been to put the egg down, but it's kind of forgotten when she sees that look Steph's got going on.

"It's not good, is it."

Less of a question and more of a resigned statement. You can practically hear the sigh of annoyance in her tone.

Stephanie's relieved, in a way--no human baby. No crying, no tiny human to remind her of her loss. No awkwardness with a castle-baby-daddy. Instead, she has this.

"So, you know how we tend to get babies around this time of the year...?"
