[for the nxt couple of mths, Wander remained under the bed, coming out only to bath or eat, n tht is only wen Hater had to wrestle him out to do it. During those mths, Wander's baby bump grew bigger]
Hater: (was feeding him a spoonful of his meal) :) Open wide now~
Wander: [was sitting on his lap as they were both on the bed, opened wide for him to feed]
Hater: (feeds him, rubbing his back gently)
Wander: [ate happily, randomly picked some food with his fingers to eat himself]
Hater: (chuckles, scratching the top of Wander's head lovingly)
Wander: [purred as he munched, tilted his head bk a little to enjoy the scratch]
Hater: You like that, don't you?~
Wander: [purred happily]
*knock knock knock*
Peepers: Sir? It's me...
Wander: [hears another unfamiliar voice (to his feral state) n made a dash dwn under the bed, hiding in his nest]
Hater: :o ... Yes, C Peeps?
Peepers: Umm... Can I come in?
Hater: Yes. Do you need something?
Peepers: Yeah... [comes in] I suppose we need to...talk
Hater: (sweats a little of 'the talk') What about...?
Peepers: [looked dwn] Well, abt me... Abt...us... I can't exactly avoid it any longer, evn tho I tried to since u guys brought me bk...
Hater:...This is you liking LIKING me, isn't it?
Peepers: I still do, n I always will, bt... Now tht u n the furball r officially going to hv a family together, I think... I think it's time for me to let go, to downgrade myself frm LIKE like u to just like u...
Hater: ...If that's what you think is best, then that's good to hear, Peepers. You're bound to find someone who'll care about you, you know?
Peepers: I knw, n I prolly knw who might tht be, I just need to learn to try n give them a chance... [looked away] ...U prolly don't notice it, bt the day u saved me n the rest of the crew after our failed rebellion against The Colonists was the day I fell for u. U hv no idea how much it meant to us, to me, n I nvr got to properly thank u enough for it other than swearing our allegiance to u...
Hater: I see...(nod)
Peepers: Neways I should congratulate u, sir, for ur new family, so...congrats [squatted dwn to see Wander] He's all urs, furball
Wander: [growled n hissed at the Watchdog, fearful he was a threat to the litter]
Peepers: Geez, the zbornak wasn't kidding abt ur temperament. Right, good talk. Cya, sir [left the room]
Hater: Cya C Peeps... and good luck. (knows Peepers will somehow try at a chance with Sylvia)
Wander: [continued to growl as if it would actually make Peepers stay gone]
Hater: (pets Wander's head)
Wander: [purred at the sight of him, giving him a "Is he gone?" look]
Hater: Yes, he's gone now.
Wander: [crawled out of his nest frm under the bed, then stopped for a moment, his face expression a bit odd]
Hater: (notices) Wander...?
Wander: [purred, then takes Hater's hand to his belly, waited for a moment then there was movement]
Hater: ...(feels a kick) :O... The babies...?
Wander: [smiled at him n purred] (nod)
Hater: (hugs him gently)
Wander: [nuzzled against him] Hatey~(heart) [finally spoke his first word in mths]
Hater: (blinks) W-Wander...? Did you just...?
Wander: [still nuzzled him] Hatey~ [curled up in his arms like a kitty cat then fell asleep, seems like it was the only thing he could say at the moment]
Hater: Hmmm... (strokes the nomad's back, simply silent)
