[ Rikki thought about going somewhere to do this anonymously, but what the hell, the people who matter are probably going to figure out (or worry) it's her anyway. So she's just sitting at her own console, face in her hands and not exactly looking at the screen. ]

So, uh... Oh, geez. [ Deep breath. ] Does anyone around here have pregnancy tests, or... I don't know, a way to tell with magic or something?

Please don't yell at me. I promise I'm kicking myself enough already.

[Oh hello new roomie, and uh--- well, that's an interesting question of the day.]

If they have a pharmacy with the right equipment, we could head there and check. [She'd offer magic, but her rule of thumb says she does not use it on possibly unborn kids. That's just wrong.]

[video]

[withoutaworld]

Ummmm... I really have no idea about pharmacies or what... equipment they'd have. If the kedan have anything... I don't know that it'd work for humans, you know?

[There's just a loud crashing noise from the kitchen where Tommy had been fixing something to eat and promptly dropped everything from his hands. That had not been something he'd wanted to overhear. Ever.

He peers out of the kitchen incredulously and stares at where Rikki is sitting, suddenly lost for words. He finds them soon enough, but they're all tangled up in his nervousness.]

--Pleasetellmeyoudidnotjustsaythat.

[withoutaworld]

[ Oh jesus. She'd kind of hoped he wouldn't hear that, that she'd have this sorted out before he has to know about it. She slumps forward, arms folded on the keyboard, forehead against her arms. ]

Please don't freak out. I don't know anything for sure, I'm just... kind of getting nervous. [ Why is she such an idiot? ]

[ Kara frowns. Science says this is probably a bad idea but it's worth offering. ]

I have x-ray vision, but I'm not sure what it might do to you.

[video]

[withoutaworld]

Heh. Thanks for the offer, but I think I'll pass unless I can't figure anything else out.

[zerotoawesome]

Whoa... Things just got a lot more Maury here on the turtle.

[withoutaworld]

[ GLARE. ] I will find you, and I will hurt you.

Santo! [There is so a lizard-punch in your future, Santo.]

Now is really not the time for that.

I would be able to determine if you are or not, if you will let me.

[ Said matter-of-factly. ]

[withoutaworld]

[ After she finally gets away from Steve, she returns to the console, red-faced and kind of wanting to crawl into a hole and die. She does let out a huge relieved breath when she sees the message waiting for her. ]

I would really appreciate that.

[animalhats]

Why do you need a pregnancy test?

[ AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH You know you want to answer this question, Rikki. ]

[action]

[withoutaworld]

[ This is, in fact, one of the last questions she wants to answer. She sighs, rubs a hand over her face. ]

The usual reason, Molly.

video; apologies for everything ever

[aenseidhe]

Wait a couple months and it should be obvious. Or are humans faster than that, even?

[ Thoughtful pause. Srsly, he doesn't really keep track of how fast you people reproduce, he just knows it's fast. And stupid. ] Considering you all hump like rabbits more often than not, I wouldn't imagine you'd need very long of a wait.

[video] AHAHAHAHA

[withoutaworld]

Oh my god, you need to stop. Just... no. And I'm not waiting a few months.

action; later

[trainwrecked]

[It's later, because Bucky was out around the Wood sector, now minus one Bunnymund to help the recovery process, trying to help. He was tired, but, as soon as he'd seen the question, he headed towards Rikki's suite. Like, immediately.]

[He knocks, too.]

Rikki? You in?

[withoutaworld]

[ She hesitates before going to the door. After Steve... she's a little afraid of going through the same thing with Bucky. But she's not going to ignore him either, and after a moment goes to open the door, shoulders hunched, head ducked a little. ]

If you're here for the lecture, Steve got here first. And if you want to beat up my boyfriend, I'm gonna have to veto that.

[sciencewhizard]

[ ... Just. Wally stared for a second, all nervous like and then he took a deep breath. What did he learn in biology and from his mom again? Right... ]

Did you- uh, are you getting anything like morning sickness?

[video]

[withoutaworld]

[ She groans softly, forehead against her palm. ] I honestly don't know. I was on these painkillers for my broken arm, and now I'm getting off them, so I can't tell if it's just that or... Yeah.

voice;

[district7]

If you are, you're better off getting rid of it.

[video]

[withoutaworld]

Yeah, I'm gonna wait to worry about that until I know one way or the other.

[Video]

[alpha_squad_leader]

The kedan pharmacies don't have anything? [He shifts a little awkwardly.] I know we've got a couple doctors around that might be able to help.

[video]

[withoutaworld]

I kind of figured they wouldn't have anything that'd work for humans? And yeah, I know, but I don't actually know any of the doctors personally, so... the asking was necessary. Unfortunately.

[candystriped]

I know of one, but it takes nine months to work.

[ It isn't that funny, but she seems to think it is. ]

[withoutaworld]

[ 8|||| ]

Hilarious. Thank you for your input.

[shootingshields]

[Because you know what the priority right now is Rikki and finding out for sure. And encryption to be a little more private over it.]

Have you found a way to know or test for sure yet? If you'd like someone to be with you, or help in the search, I don't mind. [Like another lady??] There may be something pharmaceutical from Wayne Industries, but I don't know for sure.

[video | encryption 65%]

[withoutaworld]

[ Oh thank god for grandma. ] There's a doctor who might be able to help? Still waiting for her to get back to me, but um... it'd be nice to not be alone.

[Oh, it is Snowball Fight Buddy! Temeraire appears onscreen, wide-eyed and curious.]

You have an egg?

[video]

[withoutaworld]

[ ...okay it's really hard to be annoyed at enthuastic dragons. She does wince a little. ] Um... humans don't really reproduce that way.

And... maybe? I don't know. I hope not.
