He spun the chair back and forth, eyes scanning the room for anything to entertain himself with.

The large aquarium held Vincent's collection of robot, fish, things. Alastor's interest in fish began and ended with spices. They were less interesting than the meeting.

Vincent's collection of his old heads brought back a few memories.

The original head Vincent had when he used to follow Alastor around like a little puppy.

The upgraded ones that Alastor could recall from a few altercations they'd had over years. Some he couldn't tell the difference between.

Eventually he cast his eyes upon the computer monitor just for something to look at.

Open files that said nothing of interest littered the screen. Poll numbers, R and D budget report, vague schematics and something behind it all, just the title poking out that Alastor wasn't sure what one of the words meant.

It was about him. It said his name in the title, plain as day. But the issue was the second word. It wasn't English. The consonants didn't work together. Alastor figured it must stand for something then.

He could just move his arm, grasp the mouse, and click on the file. But that would involve touching a computer.

The file mocked him.

He could ask, but that would be admitting he didn't know something.

Alastor's eyes went back to the three, now trying to decide on a slogan, and he watched them as he slowly moved his hand.

The smooth plastic revolted Alastor. It was difficult to clamp down on the need to lash out at the stupid box. He kept himself together long enough to move the little arrow on the screen and click on the file.

It popped to the front of everything else that was open to crudely drawn pictures of himself.

Vincent and he were making out in one. He appeared to be on the receiving end of Vincent's ... affections in another. After that the stick figure version of himself was drawn rounder. And in various poses almost looking, lovingly at his stomach.

They weren't good. Perhaps even worse than his own hand at drawing. But it was clear what Vincent was depicting.

A real grin crossed his face.

"Vox," Alastor called out, "I have a question."

Looking up, Vincent rolled his eyes, "it's called a computer, Al."

"Thank you, but I am, sadly, aware of their existence." He replied swiftly.

"Then what is it? We're busy." Vincent's eyes looked him over and narrowed at the smile he saw.

"Can you explain this file labelled, Alastor," the world slowed down and Vincent's eyes went wide.

He started to move towards the desk.

"M," Alastor wasn't sure how to pronounce the word, so he decided to spell it. "P."

Vincent's footfalls were loud in the office now quiet aside from Alastor's own voice.

"R."

Tripping over his own feet in his hurry, Vincent stumbled into the desk.

"E."

Vincent lunged for him.

"G."

Everything sped up again and Vincent came crashing into him. Hands wrapped around his mouth and Alastor could stop laughing even as Vincent's little subordinates reacted.

Valentino let out a pissed off, "WHAT?!?"

As Velvette just shook her head, "really, Vox? Why do you have shit like that?"

Vincent sat on Alastor's waist where they crashed on the floor, his whole screen glitching, and Alastor couldn't help himself.

He bucked and forced Vincent to fall forward and bring their faces closer so the other two couldn't hear him.

Just a bit of the sex-ed fic I've been thinking about. It probably isn't going to be too long, but I have been enjoying contemplating how Zac takes the news of how merpeople have survived over the centuries. Really, the show makes this the only logical conclusion.

“Evie, please. There’s nothing anyone can do. We are literally two different species. According to Rita, that was something she was well aware of when she chose Harry.”

“Then can you explain to me how there are still plenty of mermaids being born? Because we both know it’s not from mermen.”

Zac dropped his voice to a loud whisper as they approached the café. “Hatched, not born. Kind of. And parthenogenesis.” Zac slowed down on the new word he had heard far too often in the last couple of days. “Like sharks.”

Evie stopped just short of the doors. “Like sharks?” she asked in the same barely discreet volume.

“Look, maybe this isn’t the place for this conversation –”

“You are the one who decided to drop the bombshell that we are incompatible right before I had to go to work. You don’t get to say something like that and swim off!”

Zac winced as Evie’s voice drew the attention of several nearby customers. He held open the door and waved for her to enter before him.

Carly spotted them right away and bounced over to wish them a good morning. She came to a quick halt as she read the palpable tension between Zac and Evie. “Everything okay?”

Evie snorted. “Sure. Just finding out that having children with my boyfriend is off the table.”

“Wait – what?! Kids? Isn’t this conversation something that is several years too early? I thought you wanted to go to college. Start a fashion line?”

Evie roughly sat her bag on the counter. “It’s not about right now. Of course that’s still the plan.” Evie looked towards the door where Zac had started to turn to leave. “Zac Blakely this conversation is not done!”

Zac’s shoulders slumped. He trudged into the café and grabbed a seat.

Cam wandered out from the cool room. “Carly, where id we put the strawberries? I could have sworn you said they were on the second shelf. Morning, Zac.”

“Just a minute, Cam.”

“O – kay?”

Zac could feel his skin heating up. This was even worse than being told the details the first time. Now he had an audience. “Parthenogenesis. Mermaids don’t require mermen or any males to reproduce. That’s why they don’t have any boys in the pods. They can only have girls that way.”

Cam looked around to make sure no one was listening, “Guys is this really –”

Carly and Evie cut him off in tandem, “Shut up, Cam.”

He raised his hands in surrender and took a seat next to Zac. “What started all of this?”

“Rita gave me the birds and the bees talk.”

Cam grimaced. “That had to have been awkward.”

“This might be worse.”

Evie turned on her register and made sure the card reader connected. “So how did Nerissa have you then.”

“Mimmi and I have a father. I don’t know if he’s still alive after the Northern Pod found out. He’s probably in Canada somewhere if he is.”

Evie paused. “Oh Zac, I’m so sorry. I – of course – Does Nerissa know?”

“No. She had to run with Mimmi and I from Aurora. And my existence is really all the evidence needed to prove that she had been with a merman.”

Before the somber atmosphere could linger too long, Cam asked, “So does that mean Eric had a mermaid for a mom? I just figured he had a human mom.”

Zac sunk in on himself, refusing to look anyone in the eye.

Evie cleared her throat. “No. According to Zac, interspecies children aren’t possible between humans and merpeople.”

Cam raised a finger in the air and tried to trace the logic. He came up empty. “So, how was Eric born?”

Evie shrugged.

All of them turned to face Zac who was busy trying to melt into the floor. “He would have had two dads.”

The silence at that pronouncement was deafening.

Cam could always be counted on to ask the embarrassing question. “How does that work?”

“It’s possible for two male merpeople to – you know – and one gets pregnant.” Zac’s voice was barely audible by the end of the sentence.

“You can get pregnant?!”

"Once upon a time, there lived a glowing city protected by golden gates known as Heaven. It was a city that was inhabited by beings of pure light and goodness who maintained evil and worshipped all good. One of these angels was called Lucifer. He was a dreamer with fantastical ideas for all of creation, and beloved by many of his brothers and sisters, especially his father. However, he was seen as a troublemaker by the elders for they believed his ideas were dangerous to their order. So, he was forced to sit and watch as the elder angels began to expand the universe in their ways.

From the very dust that came from the planet called Earth, they created Adam and Lilith. From the moment they opened their eyes, they were told that they were made for each other. To be by each other side through thick and thin, through the good and bad times, until death do, they part. Unfortunately, the first two humans couldn't be more incompatible than they were. Lilith was headstrong and fiercely independent while Adam was incredibly loyal to Heaven and simply wanted to make them happy. However, they both had one thing in common, they both wanted respect and love.

They simply couldn't get that from either.

And it was like that until one day when everything changed. Lucifer had come into the gardens curious about the new humans. When he came across the first man, he couldn't believe what he was before his very eyes. A beautiful human crying his eyes out by a pond. Drawn in by the captivating creature Lucifer comforted him and the two spent their days in Eden falling deeply in love.

One day in the Garden Lucifer decided that on that day he wanted Adam to know what true free will was like. So, he offered the fruit of knowledge as a gift to him, which Adam gladly accepted. However, this gift came with a curse. For with this single act of disobedience, sin had entered the world with it a new era of evil came with it. And the order Heaven tried to maintain was shattered. As the angels came down to punish Lucifer but Adam stepped in and told them that if they were going to punish his love then he demanded that he be given the same punishment.

With heavy hearts, they did as Adam wanted and cast him and Lucifer into the dark pit that was created by the reckless act. Never allowing either of them to see the good that came from free will only the cruel and the wicked. That did not dismay the couple in fact it only brought them closer, while Lucifer lost his will to even have that dream, he had found a new one in his family. For soon after they established their home, they were blessed with a baby boy, Cain. and then soon after their son Able, and then finally a baby girl named Charlotte. Lucifer focused all his being into keeping them safe and happy.

As for Adam, he thrived as the Queen of their kingdom empowering any and all demons with his voice and his music, and as Hell's population grew so did its power. Adam's hope still remains to this day and hopes that his dream will one day be passed on to all of his children."

Adam closed the book he was reading to his daughter, saw her tired expression, and chuckled before getting off the bed, placing the book on the nightstand, and tucking her in. As he kissed Charlie goodnight his daughter asked him,

"Mama, what happened to Lilith?"

Adam paused and thought about what to say to his little one who was giving a sleepy questioning look with her adorable curious eyes. He sighed and said.

"I honestly don't know Hun, but from my understanding, Lilith eventually died and was placed in Heaven. Or at least that's my conclusion since we've never seen her down here."

Adam shakes his head before giving his daughter a comforting smile and continuing, "It's best not to think about it, now get to sleep, my little princess." Adam gives her one last kiss before turning off the lights and heading out of her room. Closing the door, he turns and sees his husband leaning against the wall with a contemplated look. As he stared at the other side of the walls. Adam cleared his throat and Lucifer looked at him before giving a shaky smile.

"Hey, honey I just came in to kiss Char-Char goodnight. Sorry I couldn't be there for story time, but paperwork can truly be a bitch to deal with ha-ha."

"Are you ok?" Adam asked while raising an eyebrow. Lucifer tried to reassure his queen but only sighed as he looked away, guilt eating at his insides like a parasite.

"I, I heard the story you told Charlie, I heard everything, and I... (sighs) You know that's not how it exactly went right?" "Yes, but I don't plan on ever telling them the truth, the full truth, because even though you were a selfish asshole then doesn't mean you're that same person now." Adam gives Lucifer a small smile before placing a hand on his cheek and turning his face gently towards him. "Now you are the gentle and kind father and husband who'd do anything for his family, including saying goodnight to our daughter quickly so he can give his queen a goodnight kiss as well" Adam winked before turning and walking away to their bedroom.

Be warned: this is not proof read.

Also, the baby’s name is the same as the one from Junos Steddie Dads even if the fics are not of the same premise. He is just the one that made me first obsess over this pairing in the first place.
