She's right, babies are ugly.
New au, who's this?
Eeva: *has been out of the womb for a singular (1) hour*
Eeva:
Carl fainted during the birth. Grace actually did a water birth (Thats why hes wet. No other reason) but Eeva didn't want to come out so he caved for epidural. He's dead. High and tired. He's been in labor for 13 hours. The triplets are fraternal.
From left to right the babies are:
Eeva, the youngest, female. Very obvious who she is named after.
Umehiko, The middle, male. Umehiko is Japanese but grace likes it a lot. Part of Yao's name means plum/fruit tree. Its funny because Grace dosn't even like plums and he craved them all the time. It roughly translates to Plum Prince.
Oleksandra, the oldest, female. With the "loss" of his friend, Grace felt Oleysa was too on the nose so opted for Oleksandra, a Ukrainian name thats close to Alexandria. She later will change her name to her father's original name for her (before he found out there was three of them), Astrodelilah. Or Ashley for short.
In this Au the explosion did not happen and Grace (whos ftm) flirted a bit too hard, and got a little too drunk during the launch party. Carl is his best friend so it wasn't a big deal.. well.. not until he vomited during a meeting and started gaining a lot of "stress weight". It's not that big of an issue. He practically said to Carl that if he didn't want to take responsibility then he would get get an abortion. Neither Carl or Grace wanted children of their own but that changed pretty quickly. Carl has never experienced the decision of his *own* children. It was a shock for sure, "Hey I'm 4 months pregnant and they're yours. What do you want to do?" Is not something you can just text to someone... weell...Grace did. Tbh Carl panicked. But ultimately after a lot of hard conversations, Carl decided he wanted to be a father. "Oh thank god.. I was going to just dip and try to raise them on my own if you said no."
"What the fuck ry?"
"What? My mom could do it, I'm sure I could figure it out.. I know its stupid, I haven't even met them. Its just-... I've always loved kids.. but they're mine. It feels different.. man my brother is going to kill me.. Ugh thats going to go terribly"
There's only .. kinda.. one issue.... Grace is legally married to Eva.. he agreed to marry her so he didn't have to testify agasint her. As cold as she is, he dosn't think she deserves prison.
So now.. He has to tell his platonic wife that he and his baby daddy has decided to keep the babies... during a famine.
On the other hand! In this au it is Olesya who survives the Coma and meets/saves rocky/erid/earth!
Oleysa comes back 30-40 years later to find her friend made her an aunt while she was away and.. was married to eva, got a divorce, married carl for health insurance purposes, and now there's 3 minis??
What a complex dynamic.
