[size=1]"Yes, well multitasking is always good," Lynx laughed.

At Missem's question, she shrugged before saying, "We haven't really talked about it. But considering we've only been married for about a month, I think it's still a little bit too soon. Besides, I'm not sure if I'm at a point in my career where it would be a good idea for me to have to worry about maternity leave. But then...never say 'never'," she quipped. [/size]

[size=1]"True, I mean I always knew I wanted kids but Kevin and I never actually discussed it... it just happened," she shrugged.

"You two would make wonderful parents."[/size]

[size=1]"Thanks," Lynx said. "I'd like to think so. I guess we'll just see what happens."

Smiling as they discussed the subject of parenthood, she asked, "So do you think you're ready to become a mommy?"[/size]

[size=1]Taken slightly of gard by Lynx question, Emma froze. "I uh... Well... I really have no idea. I mean Ive only ever looked after children, nevr babies. The longest ive sat alone with one was just so the mother could take a quick shower and that was maybe twenty minutes!Im sure it'll be fine..."

Emma tried to contemplate what it would be like looking after a baby and found she could hardly cmprehend it. "Who am I kidding? I dont know anything about taking care of a baby.Ive never changeda diaper, can only just hold a baby properly and feed one. I dont even know how to make up a bottle. What am I going to be like in five months?"[/size]

[size=1]"You're going to be great," Lynx assured Missem. "I'm sure most of it comes naturally, and there are tons of books out there to help people learn. Merlin, there are even classes on it," she laughed. Of course, to Lynx books were the only natural solution.

"And hey, I'm sure Llian and Andy will let you practice with Arram and Leo," she added.[/size]

[size=1]"Thanks. I have noticed the maternal instict kicking in," she nodded. "As for books," she lifted the one she had brought with her down to the lake about being a future mum. "It's mazing what you can find in the common room book shelf."

Emma laughed. "Merlin, I love those kids.Theyre gorgeous. We'll have to see if they'll brave my baby sitting skills."[/size]

[size=1]"In the common room? Really?" Lynx asked with a laugh. "Well, I guess with so many of the Aurors pregnant or recently having had children, it shouldn't be much of a surprise. And how is the book?" she asked.[/size]

[size=1]"It is true. We're not just an Auror HQ, we're also a daycare." Emma laughed, flipping through a couple of the pages.

"So far its just been information about the pregnancy and getting ready for the birth. Not really much about what happens after but then im only half way through," she shrugged. "However, there are some lovely pictures and descriptions that are sure to give me nightmare about the birth."[/size]

[size=1]Lynx shuddered empathetically. "I can imagine...and I'm sure you don't want to think about those. But I've been told you should enjoy being pregnant while it lasts," she said positively.

"So have you thought about any names, or is it still too early? I'm not exactly familiar with the process," she laughed.[/size]

[size=1]"Well at first glance at those particualr pages, I shuffled past them and decided to leave them until closer to the time." She grinned, "Well asides from morning sickness and a lack of caffeen, it's not been too bad. Ive been feeling rather maternal and ive never eaten so much cake in my life. Oh and the naps and early nights ive been taking have been lovely."

Emma paused, trying to think of any names, "Well... we havent really discussed it yet. I mean of course we dont know if it'll be a boy or girl but then we also have to decided if we want to know, or leave it a surprise. I guess thats another thing we need to talk about. Any suggestions? There are just so many."[/size]

[size=1]Lynx shook her head. "None yet," she said, "but I'll let you know if I come up with anything."

Standing up and stretching, she said, "I'm going to head inside, I think. Want to come?"[/size]

[size=1]"Thanks," she smiled, before shivering slightly as a cool breeze blew past. "You know I think we might. Come on you two we're going to head on in now."

Pulling out her wand, she quickly packed up the picnic things, and then picked up the basket, smiling as William and Ashley joined them. "Right, on indoors then."[/size]

Skyris walked out to the lake and exhaled.

"I think I'm getting old Gwenny," she sighed unhappily, "I'm starting to want to relive my days of greatness and I know it's just not going to happen..."

Kris saw Skyris holding Gwen by the lake.

"Hey Skyris..."

She said quietly, juggling the twins to try and get them sat on her hips properly.

Skyris turned around to face Kris.

"Hey... sorry I hit you... I don't know what came over me really..." she sighed.

Kris shook her head.

"It's no problem... I think I needed it... Might have done something worse if you hadn't..."

She told her before sighing heavily.

"Muggle fighting... What a way to degrade yourself..."

"Yeah.. but sad to say it is needed from time to time," Skyris sighed, "Call me insane but it felt good."

Kris laughed.

"You're a Severio.. It's expected!"

She chuckled.

"But I must admit... However much it hurt my hand... it felt good..."

She smiled wryly.

"Don't tell Artorious... He'll think I've gone mad..."

"I think Severus and Artorious may have bigger problems," Skyris sighed, "Lynx said if they didn't stop then then would get suspended... knowing Severus and how much of a high stake he puts on his honor he didn't stop when she asked him to."

Kris nodded.

"Artorious is the same..."

She sighed.

"... I think they need to have a few shots of oestrogen... They've got too much testosterone in them...Boils over too quickly..."

She looked down at the twins. Lachlan had fallen asleep and Blake was in the process of pulling his party hat onto Lachlan's face.

"Blake... Don't you dare..."

She said warningly. He just looked up at her and grinned, showing his two front teeth.

"OK, I get it... Toothy grin is cute, but leave your brother alone..."

She smirked.

"We should go and see what happened..."
