#clone anon posts

Before we get going I’ll say that this is something I’m familiar with. I’ve been through two, although in my case I wasn’t ready to be a mom and miscarriage brought both relief and guilt.  I am able to write from that perspective as well, but it’s not the take I’m working with here.  I was not sure which clone was preferred so I went with Rex.  If you would like a ficlet like this or on another topic, please reach out.

You both were looking forward to being parents.  Getting pregnant was a surprise and you’d never forget the look on Rex’s face when you told him.  He’d seen some of his other brothers take on parental roles, but he was still stunned he was going to be a father.  You started preparing almost immediately. It was adding a few things to the house here or there and dealing with your changing body as well as wrapping your head around adding a third person to the family.

That all changed one morning when you got out of the shower, into your clothes, and something wasn’t right.  Something was very wrong. You screamed for Rex and he came running.  It seemed like a blur, but you went from excited parents to medical emergency, to recovery, to emptiness.  You and Rex both cried and he would not stop holding you.

You didn’t talk about it immediately, but one day he came home to find you sitting at the kitchen table in the same clothes you’d worn for two days, staring at the wall, hot caf gone cold hours ago.  He came over and sat next to you, taking your hand in his and kissing it several times.

Tears streamed down your cheeks as you simpy said, “We never got to know them.”

Rex felt it in his heart.  Of course he was sad by what was going on, but he also wanted to help you both through this.

“In my head I always called them ‘little soldier,’“ he admitted.  “I figured it worked no matter their gender.”

You looked at him and tried smiling before he continued.

“I thought about who they would be.  Strong, smart, brave, and wonderful like their mother, of course. What kind of hobbies do you think they would have?”

You thought about it, actually allowing yourself to embrace who this child was and through sniffles replied, “They would have done anything as long as it was with their dad. Playing in the woods. Pretend tea parties. And probably eventually learning to shoot a blaster.”

Rex smiled at that. “Yeah, but not too soon.”

“They would have loved all their uncles,” you added.

“And their uncles and us... we’ll always love them.  Because no matter how short a time it was for, they are part of this family.”

He took a breath. “I know we have to grieve in our own ways.  I know you’re beyond sad and I am too, but I’m not going to forget our little soldier and I don’t want you thinking you have to move on or whatever just because a certain amount of time has passed or they never got to be born.”

If you want to request something for yourself:

Send me an ask with what kind of story you need and with which clone. Feel free to add any helpful information like whether you're touch-averse (clones understand boundaries) so I don't accidentally include something you don't want. I can respond to the ask on here or send you an anon ask with the story. If you decide to post the story to your blog, I reblog so others can read.

Once in a while, I may simply post a story and not tag anyone (if they wish) if the topic is sensitive and just trust they will find it.

If you want to request on behalf of someone else:

Send an ask and tell me who, what kind of story, and which clone, similar to if you were requesting for yourself. I will send them an anon ask with the story or post it here and tag them.

Please note:

I am also open to writing about difficult topics, including trauma and loss. As a trauma survivor myself, I know how healing it can be to see yourself with someone who feels safe, and I think in a lot of ways, the clones make people feel safe. I have also written about people comforting their favorite clone.

I also do not write romance for minors. This should go without saying. While I have written platonic / older brother mentor type things before, I am avoiding that option now too in light of some recent requests, just because I don't want anything misread.

Feel free to see some of what I've written throughout this blog, but also know that some people choose not to post the stories I send and that is perfectly fine. You are under no obligation to share, but it's great if you want to.
