[Meanwhile, at the mother ship where Sylvia n Peepers were...]
Peepers: (nuzzling Sylvia's belly) (inlove)
Sylvia: [still staying asleep, hasn't woken up since they went to bed last night]
Peepers: (looks at Sylvia, crawling his way to her, giving her a gentle kiss)
Sylvia: [doesn't kiss bk or stir, reli in deep sleep]
Peepers: (think) ... (nuzzles next to her) ... |-)
Sylvia: [slept for the longest time, n wen it was almost late evening, she still wasn't awake]
Peepers: (yawn) ... (pats her face a little to awaken her)
Sylvia: [doesn't stir at all] |-) Zzzz...
Peepers: (growing worried) :(
*knock knock knock*
Awesome: [behind the door] Yo, u guys decent in there? Can I come in?
Peepers: (signs) Yes.
Awesome: [enters] Havent seen u guys all day. Wander asked me to come chk on u guys. Doing the hanky panky all night or somethi... [sees Sylvia asleep n Peepers' worried face] Woah, wat's wrong, Peeps?
Peepers: (signs) She isn't waking up. Is this a normal part of Zbornaks' pregnancies or...?
Awesome: [scratched his chin] Hmmm... I dunno, I'm afraid aside frm sex, I don't knw much abt zbornak biology. U want me to call the medic here to chk her out?
Peepers: (signs) Please.
Awesome: [nodded as he left the room for a moment, then returned with the medic] Here he is
Doc: Wat seems to be the problem?
Peepers: (signs) Sylvia isn't waking up. :(
Doc: Let's see [chk her vitals, read her pulse, monitored her symptoms, etc...]
Peepers: (fidgets his hands in worry, getting a reassuring pat on the back from Awesome)
Doc: [finally done with his chk up]
Awesome: So doc, wat's the prognosis?
Peepers: (signs) Is she okay?
Doc: She's fine. Her vital signs are good
Awesome: Then why isn't she waking up?
Doc: First off, did she eat a lot these past few days? More than the usual pregnancy munchies?
Peepers: (signs) More food than you'd think.
Awesome: She pretty much ate the whole kitchen last night, and then some -__-
Peepers: (signs) But what does that have to do with her...?
Doc: Any frequent bowel movements or anything
Awesome: Umm... Well, she did say she wanted to go tinkle...a lot, but nvr said anything abt doing the number 2
Doc: Hmm, I see. Well, the reason I'm asking is to confirm my suspicions: She's in hibernating mode
Peepers: (signs) And...this'll last how long? Until birth?
Doc: Probably just until abt 2 mths before the birth. She's basically in stocking up mode n been eating non-stop for both her n the baby. N now tht her body needs to digest n convert all tht food to energy for ur baby, her body is making her sleep so it can concentrate on digestion. She won't be able to control her bladder though, so I suggest u get started on getting her adult pull-ups
Awesome: U mean... Diapers?
Doc: Pretty much, yes, but don't worry. This is normal. She'll be up n abt before u know it
Peepers: (pet's Sylvia's hair) :(
Doc: I'll be at the med bay if u need me [leaves the room]
Awesome: [patted Peepers' back] Cheer up, buddy. At least she's OK
Peepers: (signs) I know... but it's gonna feel kinda lonely without her being awake.
Awesome: Like the doc said, she'll be up before u know it. Time flies pretty quick. Besides ur gonna be a daddy soon. U better enjoy the peace n quiet while it lasts
Peepers: (signs) I know...
Awesome: So, any plans on tying the knot anytime soon? (smirk)
Peepers: (signs) Well, I've been thinking on how to propose to her.
Awesome: Oh? Got any ideas, lover boy? :)
Peepers: (mentions a few of his proposing ideas)
Awesome: Some r good, but the one proposing to her next to a waterfall might be a bit too cheesy, or the one with bungee jumping
Peepers: (signs) You have better ideas in mind, then?
Awesome: [shrugged] Not reli, u know me, not the settling down type. But like I said, other than those two, the rest of ur ideas seem good enough
Peepers: :)
Awesome: U gonna be OK with Bee in tht state?
Peepers: (signs) I guess so...
Awesome: Hang in there, Peeps [patted Peepers' back] I'll go tell Wander abt Sylvia. He's a little worried abt her. Cya wen I cya [leaves the room]
Peepers: (nod) (remains by Sylvia's side)
Sylvia: [continued snoozing without a care in the world] |-)
Peepers: (kisses her forehead)
