Age: Yesterday.
Physical Description: Edward Laurént stands at 5'10. He has midlength black hair, and a clean shaven face. Previously his facial features were hard to remember, since he has begun wearing glasses they have become easier to recall. He looks to be in his late twenties, with a strong jaw, mid set cheek bones, straight narrow nose, and full lips. He appears to be in decent physical condition, though he is a bit pale.
Edwards eyes are an odd shade of blue, and they quite literally glow. With his glasses on, the glowing is the only remarkable thing about them. When you stare into his eyes when his glasses off though... it can be an odd experience. Staring into his eyes gives the impression that time has ceased to flow. Then you become aware of just how fast you are moving through the void of space. Most students avoid looking into his eyes.

Clothes and Equipment: Previously Edward only owned one suit of clothing. He retains these clothes, as a sort of work uniform. His style of dress when working is odd. He wears: sturdy blue cotton pants, an over sized coat of some unknown material, a sweater with a hood sewn onto it, and a large scarf. Each piece of clothing fluctuates in state of repair, and cleanliness through the day. If these clothes were not so eccentric, he could easily be considered a beggar while wearing them.
Edward has begun to expand his wardrobe in recent months. His first new accessory is a pair of glasses. Unlike other time mages, Edward struggled with turning off his time sight, rather than turning it on. His glasses are enchanted to suppress it. When not working he tends to wear casual clothing. Loose white shirts, and simple leather leggings. He also has a handful of stylish, if simple mage robes for special occasions.

"Don't be silly a man should always check up on his wife. So nausea and a headache? I can't remember you getting sick before now, so there goes your track record. Still there hasn't been anything going around the academy. Are you sure you caught it there?"
Edward continues to massage her shoulders. Pressing his thumbs into the knots of her back and slowly smoothing them out. Maybe he should learn how to massage? That could be fun getting some oils and give Reu a full body rub down and then... He was getting distracted as he always did around her. He had very important news to obliquely make his way to revealing.

Roleplay posts: 361
Age: 51
Physical Description: Reuna is a striking study in contrasts. She is just slightly above female average, height-wise, standing at 5'8", and is slender, with a fragile bone structure that makes her look weak; this is, of course, balanced out by her strength and skill in magic. Her hair is long, descending to her waist, and is purely black, which is a sharp opposition to her pale-skinned features. Her eyes are the color of amethyst, dark and intense, and are usually the only method from which one can derive her mood, as she very rarely displays her emotions via facial expressions. She appears young, in her mid-thirties, although if one looks closely enough, they can see the beginnings of fine lines around her eyes and mouth. Although few have ever seen them, due to her tendency to keep herself fully covered from neck to toes, she has whip-mark scars covering most of her back, and scars from long periods spent in manacles around both of her wrists, remnants from her days as a slave.
-----------------------------
Clothes and Equipment: Generally, Reuna wears one of five sets of identical robes, with high collars and long slightly-loose sleeves, in black, dark grey, purple, dark green, and dark blue. Commonly-carried equipment consists of her personal grimoire, a traveling writing kit (with ink well, quills, and writing desk), and a belt with pouches that contain various items (both magical and non); though perhaps not considered equipment, her raven companion Karrik always accompanies her.

That made Reuna's eyes blink open, and her brow furrowed slightly as she stared at the floor. There were no illnesses going around the Academy..? That was.. strange... "Well, the only other option is that I picked something up while we were at the Land-Tiller's States, or in Carmela.. we weren't at the Land-Tillers for long, and we didn't really see many people in Carmela..." They were too busy engaging in more.. private activities. Closing her book and setting it aside, she sipped at her tea again, trying to think clearly.
She began listing her symptoms in her head: Nausea. Headache. Lower back ache. Tender breasts. Occasional cramping sensation in her pelvic region. Moodiness. Fatigue. Her body was finicky and she would often go many months without experiencing her monthly bleeding, but when she did.. in the week or so before, she felt sick, and got moody... Her shoulders slumped as the answer came to her. So. The ritual had failed and this was just her body letting her know that it was still a barren and inhospitable wasteland, and she wouldn't be giving Edward a child anytime soon, if at all. Her eyes welled with tears that she rapidly blinked away, and she raised her cup to sip at the contents once more. "I understand what's wrong, now. I'll be fine in.. a week or so."

Edward could feel the sudden tension and followed by the sag of her shoulders. Oh dear. What had happened? It took him a moment to realize the conclusion she must have drawn. Slipping his hands down from her shoulders he cups her belly in his.
"Hmmm have you put on a bit of weight. I've noticed it since we left Carmela, you've been eating more as well..."

Reuna looked down at his hands, bewildered, as they settled over the curve of her stomach. And then she bristled at his words. It wasn't her fault, her appetite had increased! ..But she was nauseous. Come to think of it, she really was in the mood for some baked eggplant, maybe she should-- And then it hit her, and her teacup fell from nerveless fingers, tumbling to the floor, as she stared down at Edward's hands. Which were laying protectively over her lower abdomen. Specifically, over her womb. Which, while normally not perfectly flat, had become a little more rounded in the past months. Struggling to breathe, she placed shaking hands over his and spoke in a tone that was hopeful, but also somehow fearful to be so.
"..Edward, is this.. am I.. are we..?" She turned her head and looked up at him, amethyst eyes shining with love and hope. "..Did the ritual work..? Am I.. with child?"

"That or I have taken leave of my senses. Only a crazy man accuses his wife of getting fat."
Edward circled around so he was facing her. Taking her hands in his he crouches before her and let's her see the big silly grin on his face. He pulls her forward and gives her a lingering, languid, loving kiss.

Tears flooded her eyes and began to spill down her cheeks as she heard Edward's words, and there was no stopping them, even when he rounded the chair and crouched in front of her chair. There was a look of hopeful disbelief on her face, and then she was being kissed, and Reuna breathed a watery laugh before throwing herself into the kiss. This.. how long had she wanted this? To be with a man who loved her wholly, who she could grow old with, have children with.. and now it was hers. She was carrying his child. Breaking the kiss, she found herself sobbing helpless tears of joy as she wrapped her arms around his neck and leaned into him. All she could do for several long minutes was cry. Then she drew back and looked at him, her eyes searching his almost frantically.
"I don't want to tell anyone about this. Not yet. There's always a chance it might not.. take. And I don't want to risk that spreading the news will..." It was a purely irrational chain of thoughts, thinking that telling anyone would jinx them.. but she wasn't going to take any chances. She'd already lost one baby.. she was not going to go through that again, or make Edward go through it.

"As you wish, my love."
Edward concedes to the request without complaint. They could wait until her bell had swelled to tell Gavin it was no trouble. Drawing her from her seat he switches their positions somewhat. Taking her chair and twirling her around so she was sitting in his lap. He buries his face in her hair and cups her slightly swollen belly. He just wants to hold to enjoy the moment and the knowledge. They had done it! They were going to have a child! Gavin would have a sibling! There family would grow and they would have more joy, love, and life.

Reuna relaxed visibly when he agreed, then blurted a startled laugh when she abruptly found herself taken out of her seat, only to be returned to it a moment later.. albeit with the best addition possible. Snuggling into Edward, she laid her hands atop his and allowed herself to enjoy the moment. There was a child growing within her.. within a few months it would be obvious as her body grew to accommodate the development of the life housed in her womb. Her fingers twined with his as she turned her head, shifting about as necessary until she could kiss him softly, then she settled in to stare at their joined hands.
"I love you, Edward." Her mind was spinning even as she found herself smiling. Would it be a boy? A girl? Would it favor her, or him? Would it have his beautiful blue eyes, his handsome features? She closed her eyes, trying to picture their child, trying to put names to a face that she couldn't even imagine.

Edward closes his eyes and enjoys the kiss. Then he leans back and enjoys her. Her weight, her presence, her warmth, her love. It was a nearly perfect moment on he hoped would last forever. Too be fair it could, but was now the time to broach the subject? Would the question ruin the moment of make it better? He wasn't sure. Still with their first child on the way perhaps now was the best time. They needed to talk about the future and what they would do about it.
"I love you Reu, forever. Literally. Actually I've been meaning to talk to you about that. I... am functionally immortal. There maybe a way I could age normally or I could find a way to make you immortal. I am sorry to spring this on you, but I am thinking of the future. You don't need to choose now, but give it some thought."

His response made her smile.. and then she went still. He was immortal.. that meant she would one day grow old and die, and he.. wouldn't. But he could make himself not immortal? And then all the breath rushed out of her. Find a way to make her immortal? Live with him forever? But what about Gavin, or this baby, or any other children they might have? Reuna's eyes widened, and she turned her head to look at Edward. She wasn't sure how she felt about that. Still, she nodded, and caressed his cheek. "I'll think about it. I promise."

<Three months later>
The past few months had been spent with Reuna doing her best to hide her pregnancy, not wanting to jinx it. But it had gotten to the point now, at five months along, where she felt they were safe.. and also it was getting really hard to disguise the growing swell of her belly. And so she had decided today to stop. Edward had gone to Gavin's school to pick him up, and Reuna descended from the top floor and made her way toward the kitchen to get dinner started, wearing a comfortable pale blue dress that did absolutely nothing to hide her baby bump. She grinned as she wondered how Gavin was going to react to this. She'd been especially sure to keep this hidden from her adopted son, not sure how he would feel about getting a sibling.

Edward popped into existence Gavin in tow. The boy was surprisingly observant so he wasn't sure if he had figured out Reu was pregnant yet. If he had then the boy had been quiet about it. Still Edward was excited today was the day. The baby had it's first kick a few days ago. That kick had been what made Reu confident enough to share the news. Gavin had hinted he would like a sibling in the past, so he was sure the lad would be thrilled. Part of him new the boy craved a sibling because a life unremembered. Though this time he would be the elder, not the younger. Entering the kitchen he grins at Reu.
"How is mommy doing today?"

Gavin was still giddy from his day at school. Of course he had been fortunate enough to be reunited with his little friend from the wedding, though unfortunately she was a year older than him. Still, his longing for companions his age had been satiated and each day made him look more forward to the next.
"Here mommy! I drew this picture!"
The picture was a crude painting of their family. Echoes, a somewhat chubby Reuna, himself, Paulie, Karrik... and something else. There was a strange little thing, a happy faced white balloon, floating around Reuna's belly. "Do you like it?"
(Incidentally Gavin had drawn other pictures, some of which involved surprisingly gory magical duels. He was a young boy after all, and his teacher reassured Echoes that this was quite normal. Echoes however decided that those should remain part of Gavin's private collection, to avoid horrifying his mother.)

Age: 51
Physical Description: Reuna is a striking study in contrasts. She is just slightly above female average, height-wise, standing at 5'8", and is slender, with a fragile bone structure that makes her look weak; this is, of course, balanced out by her strength and skill in magic. Her hair is long, descending to her waist, and is purely black, which is a sharp opposition to her pale-skinned features. Her eyes are the color of amethyst, dark and intense, and are usually the only method from which one can derive her mood, as she very rarely displays her emotions via facial expressions. She appears young, in her mid-thirties, although if one looks closely enough, they can see the beginnings of fine lines around her eyes and mouth. Although few have ever seen them, due to her tendency to keep herself fully covered from neck to toes, she has whip-mark scars covering most of her back, and scars from long periods spent in manacles around both of her wrists, remnants from her days as a slave.
-----------------------------
Clothes and Equipment: Generally, Reuna wears one of five sets of identical robes, with high collars and long slightly-loose sleeves, in black, dark grey, purple, dark green, and dark blue. Commonly-carried equipment consists of her personal grimoire, a traveling writing kit (with ink well, quills, and writing desk), and a belt with pouches that contain various items (both magical and non); though perhaps not considered equipment, her raven companion Karrik always accompanies her.

Looking over her shoulder at Edward, she gave him a nervous smile. "Mommy is doing wonderful, thank you." Then she turned around to give him a kiss, and reached down to take the picture Gavin offered. That was.. definitely a picture of them, and she was definitely chubby, and there was some sort of face floating near her belly. She arched a brow and looked at him with a bemused smile. "This is a wonderful picture, Gavin, but what is this face floating around me?" She had a feeling as to what it was, but she wanted confirmation. This child was too perceptive for anyone's good.

Age: Yesterday.
Physical Description: Edward Laurént stands at 5'10. He has midlength black hair, and a clean shaven face. Previously his facial features were hard to remember, since he has begun wearing glasses they have become easier to recall. He looks to be in his late twenties, with a strong jaw, mid set cheek bones, straight narrow nose, and full lips. He appears to be in decent physical condition, though he is a bit pale.
Edwards eyes are an odd shade of blue, and they quite literally glow. With his glasses on, the glowing is the only remarkable thing about them. When you stare into his eyes when his glasses off though... it can be an odd experience. Staring into his eyes gives the impression that time has ceased to flow. Then you become aware of just how fast you are moving through the void of space. Most students avoid looking into his eyes.

Clothes and Equipment: Previously Edward only owned one suit of clothing. He retains these clothes, as a sort of work uniform. His style of dress when working is odd. He wears: sturdy blue cotton pants, an over sized coat of some unknown material, a sweater with a hood sewn onto it, and a large scarf. Each piece of clothing fluctuates in state of repair, and cleanliness through the day. If these clothes were not so eccentric, he could easily be considered a beggar while wearing them.
Edward has begun to expand his wardrobe in recent months. His first new accessory is a pair of glasses. Unlike other time mages, Edward struggled with turning off his time sight, rather than turning it on. His glasses are enchanted to suppress it. When not working he tends to wear casual clothing. Loose white shirts, and simple leather leggings. He also has a handful of stylish, if simple mage robes for special occasions.

Figuring it was best for Reu to be the one to make things official, Edward headed into the dining room to set the table. He hummed to himself as he worked. He was in an exceptional mood, even if Gavin had shown him some rather odd drawings. The boy was destined to be a trouble maker that was Edward instinct on the matter.

Gavin shrugged. "I don't know. I see her floating around mommy sometimes. I think she's waiting for something."
Gavin looked around. "Where's Paulie? Can we play before dinner?"

All the breath left Reuna as the boy spoke, and her eyes filled with tears. She placed her left hand over her mouth and the right on her belly, then looked down at the swell of her abdomen. It took her a moment to wrangle her emotions back under control, and then she forced her hand down and spoke, a smile on her face. "Well, Gavin.. I suppose that would be your baby sister you're seeing. How do you feel about that?" She was going to have a girl. She already knew what she wanted to name her, and she looked up at Edward, her heart in her eyes. She'd spoken of her best friend, the blue-haired Elf queen, to her husband before.. would he be alright with naming the baby Emahra? Hearing his name, Paulie trotted up to the door of the kitchen and stopped there, sitting down with a whuff; he knew he wasn't allowed in the kitchen, not with all that fur.

Edward followed the dog to the door of the kitchen. The dog was most certainly not allowed in the kitchen. That didn't stop the animal from sitting at the threshold and drooling when there was cooking going on. The time mage pats the dogs head before moving next to Reu. Bending down he kneels in front of his son. He was eager to see the boys reaction as well.

Gavin's face lit up. "I knew it!" Gavin ran up to Reuna and started listening to her belly. "Coooool, there are like, two heartbeats... right Paulie?" WOOF! Paulie didn't need to be so close to hear the second heartbeat. Gavin jumped with delight. "We're gonna teach her how to make potions, and sword fight, and she can ride Paulie, and..." This went on for several minutes. "... And read books, and play ball, OH do you think she'll be good at magic? We can teach her magic. Oh oh oh we can play knights and dragons with daddy!"

Gavin's reaction made Reuna grin, and she couldn't help gently stroking his hair as he listened to the baby stirring within her belly. The child stirred and kicked against his head, and she chuckled. It became laughter following his several-minute-long tirade about all the things he would do with his baby sister. "You'll have to wait a while for her to be old enough to play with, but I'm glad you're happy about this situation. Now! Why don't you go play with Paulie while I finish making dinner, hm?" She leaned down - not the easiest thing to do, given her slender frame and the size of her belly - and pressed a kiss to his brow. Cute little scamp.
