Redhawk Caldera changes

Eljay's behavior during the swarm was all but forgotten by the beta. It really didn't matter at this point, and in any case there were far more pressing matters to put her mental energies toward. The world had become a very dangerous and unpredictable thing almost overnight. And it had done so just in time for the entire length of her pregnancy. Good job, life.

Elwood had forewarned her of Eljay's interest in helping her through her pregnancy (I'm assuming..), so when the boy expressed his thoughts, she was not surprised to hear it. "Doin' okay," was her short response to his first query, after which she fell silent as she listened to him speak. She couldn't help the tender smile that slipped across her muzzle at his words. It was touching that he wanted to help her and take care of her, so much that she felt the tiniest of tears pricking the very corners of her eyes. It was just so damn sweet. And she was so very, very made of emotions right now.

Her smile became wooden though as his commentary came to a close. He wanted to make sure they get there good? What did that mean? Finley's mind could come to only one conclusion, and it was an uncomfortable one. Fortunately, her mouth had a habit of acting even when her brain had stopped, and so she was able to reply in spite of the awkward black hole that had eaten her mind alive.

"Well. Jay," she started, still smiling, still insides exploding, "Your dad's taken care of that already. They're... there. They're in there. Now. Daddy got to that already. You don't.. You don't need to help mommy get them there." She shrugged and laughed, trying oh so very hard to not attempt to fathom the ways Eljay might have tried to help Elwood impregnate her.

Though the writers definitely were amused at the moment picturing Eljay putting on some Boyz II Men and dimming the lights with a wink and an encouraging nod to his papa.
