K'vk'tun: Hammocks

Ramada stared into the cup of brown beverage that was most definitely not coffee, and then looked over at her small friend, wondering how best to delicately phrase that the stuff tasted like crap and wasn't there anything else to drink. 

She could find no euphemism that was guaranteed not to set Mykayla off (truth be told she was a bit grumpy, and Ramada couldn't blame her given the condition she was in), and so instead turned to her small friend and said:

"Do they put sugar in this?"

"I suppose," she said, shifting herself only slightly. Half-supported by the water, Mykayla wasn't very heavy; it was just that her butt was beginning to get stiff.

Perhaps it was just age.

She giggled slightly to herself.

The small woman was in the midst of another contraction, but when it ended she opened her eyes. "Move to the water grass, it's cushy."

Ramada grunted slightly as she did so. "Yes, that is much better."

"If you become too uncomfortable I can call someone else," offered Scrat, his eyes on his wrist chrono.

"I'm fine. Goodness knows she did much more for me when the situation was reversed."

"Did she?" He glanced up as Mykayla sighed and relaxed.

"Yes. Rhea's birth was difficult, and when it got bad, David fainted cold. You know how he is. So Mykey had to step up to the plate." A grin. "I think she did a good job; so here I am returning the favour. Again."

"He cares for you deeply." Scrat smiled, then looked down as the next contraction started and Mykayla made a low sound something like an angry cat. "It's alright to yell, my soul."

"Nnnnnnn!" She gritted. "Don't wanna!"

"Oh I know he does." Ramada reached for her friend's hand as she worked through another contraction. "If you don't want to yell - squeeze."

"That's... how... Itwistedyourwristlasttime! Nnnnnn." Mykayla grabbed it and squeezed, her face screwing up as she fought the urge to push.

She squeezed back. "Whatever. It'll get fixed. Besides, this is my bum hand."

Her left. The one that had been broken-pipetted and Bunsen burned and acid dropped more times than she'd care to count.

She smiled. "Don't worry about me. Worry about you."

She puffed and blinked, then gave her a twisted smile and clenched her eyes shut again.

"Push!" said Scrat, hand gently rubbing her stomach.

"P... push?" repeated Mykayla shakily.

"Yes! Push!" He grinned encouragingly.

"Nnnnyarrghhh!"

Ramada just grinned and watched.
