I didn't tag everyone bc I don't know if everyone has accounts yet, BUT WELCOME TO THE PLANET

Fin had actually forgotten her misgivings about giving birth probably within about five minutes of deciding to go for it anyway. It was probably a good thing because a worried Fin was an unpleasant Fin, and a pregnant Fin was unpleasant enough already without worried Fin on top of it. As her stomach cramped with another contraction, not making it through this birth was just about the furthest thing from her mind. She was more concerned with getting these little bitches out of her so she could get some damn sleep.

Her ears twitched as the call for Eljay sounded. She knew they likely had a while before any puppies showed up, but still she hoped her son would hurry. She knew it was important to him to be part of this and didn't want him to miss it, so she would hold off as long as she could. But sometimes puppies didn't want to wait, and as the minutes wore on, it slowly became apparent to Finley that these puppies were some of the not-wanting-to-wait-inest things she'd ever birthed. Her contractions began to speed up like crazy, leading her to wonder if she was actually going to manage to drop these kids out of her in under an hour.

Three hours later, Fin understood completely that she had been very, very wrong about that. She'd begun offering the babies in her stomach bribes to come out of there and more recently had started swearing at them. She didn't know what was taking Eljay so long but could only assume it had something to do with his own kids, or maybe that bitch Legs had started popping out babies before her and had called dibs on him. But in any event, she couldn't wait anymore. She wanted these things out, so she went to work getting them out.

@Avery was first--a little wet ball of pale grey wool. Fin breathed through the pain as she went to work cleaning the little girl up and making sure she was as cozy and warm as possible before she had to abandon her to go have another one. The second came about thirty minutes later, although she was so tiny, Fin had barely even noticed. There just suddenly appeared another little grey thing on the ground, wriggling about with black-streaked arms and a bright pink nose. This one too was tended to, abeit a bit more frantically seeing as Fin wasn't sure just how long it'd been lying there and she wanted to make sure her most recent daughter didn't like suffocate or anything. Then, Sugar Glider was snuggled up beside her big sister, marveled at for a moment for how absurdly tiny she was, and then abandoned as well. There was more work to do apparently.

The third took a while. The third was apparently a little asshole because he decided to plug her up for an hour before Finley finally won the battle against him. Crow came squalling into the world to the sound of his mother crying out "FINALLY" in a weary, aggravated tone. She took care of him while grumbling and plotting her retribution. By the time he was placed alongside his sisters, she had decided on embarrassing the crap out of him in front of his first crush when he was six months old. That seemed like it would do, and in any event, she had no time to come up with anything better. It was number four's turn.

Number four was promptly deemed to be the good child. Not only did he come quickly, but she actually felt his arrival so she didn't have to worry she'd overlooked him and he'd died on her. @Penn was cleaned up without any plans for vengeance rolling around in her mind. In fact, she was feeling overwhelmed with gratitude by then for the fact that she knew that this one was her last. Her belly felt officially baby-free. She snuggled up beside them again knowing she wouldn't have to get back up--they could all just lay here for the next week and a half and not be in horrible pain.

Thank fuck.
