Hushed Willows Heartbreak City, party of two

As her pregnancy progressed, Reverie was overcome with her own excitement; anticipation for the new journey ahead of her. Parenthood by choice. Her love for Blossom had never lessened and never would, but it was undeniably different this time. Sickness had settled into something softer, something like — a glow. It all felt so typical. A typical life; wasn't that what she'd always fought against? Wasn't that what she'd always wanted?

She was settled just outside of her den when Reina found her, dutifully plucking the fur from her belly. It wasn't the most glamorous task, but someone had to do it. Reverie glanced up with a mouthful of fur as Reina approached. Oh, hi! The words were slightly muffled, and she immediately launched into a coughing fit. It took a few moments of coughing and pawing at her muzzle to rid herself of the fur, but her tail was beating steadily against the ground through it all.

Sorry, She mumbled, still wiping at her mouth. Pregnancy's gross. But, um, how are you? Her eyes lit up with her last words, ever curious about her friend's life.
