Kallik's anxiety was out of control today. He couldn't stop thinking about how upset Aquene had been the night of the matrona's labor. He had pushed the thoughts away while comforting her, but once he was on patrol the next morning they all came rushing back. And it was like that any time he was alone; he would come up with all of these scenarios where something awful happened to his wife while she gave birth.
So after a few days of this, his whole body felt like one raw nerve. On the outside, he was his usual cold self, though; he was a master at hiding his feelings; maybe not so much from Aquene, but from everyone else.
He found himself heading towards the arena to see if anyone was around to spar, hoping a good workout would give him some relief. He found Towhee there, though, along with one of the new auxillia.
His eyebrows raised a bit as he heard the praefectus declare that she was pregnant.

Congratulations,he rumbled, stopping a few paces from her. He knew she and Maxim had actually wanted children, so this was not an 'oh shit' conversation like it had been for him and the medicus.
