All Welcome 
Fennec could feel when she began to show, mainly because sleeping grew more awkward as her sides filled out.  It wasn't a bad sort of different, but it was noteworthy.  She didn't say anything about it, but more and more, @Bronco would find her sleeping on a portion of the furs he'd brought, curling into their warmth (and his, if he joined her).

She still wasn't exactly okay, but she wasn't actively flipping her shit like she had been when no one knew.  Getting the secret out there did a huge amount in helping her, but she still felt like everything was moving too fast.  And she still had no clue how they were supposed to do this.  What if she had a bunch of kids and didn't like any of them?  What if they were horrible?  Okay, well... horrible would be a plus.  What if they were boring, or stupid, and she was stuck with that for the rest of her life?

She was definitely going to be mom of the year material, with that kind of optimism. 

Her mood might have leveled but hormones still had her reeling.  She'd probably rage-cried to/at Bronco at least twice in the past couple of weeks, a fact that horrified her both at the time and after, and the smallest things could set her off if the timing was bad.  She still felt nauseous at times, but her appetite was bigger than it had ever been before.  There never seemed to be enough food to slake it, so she hunted herself.  And her success rate, coupled with her general emotional state, was not a pretty sight. 

Today at least she'd had some luck, and the afternoon was just setting in as Fennec reclined near the Caldera, crunching on a duck she'd managed to corner and snag by a wing.  Heedless of the feathers, she growled contentedly while she ate.  Maybe, today, things weren't so bad. Warm sun, good food, and good family around her.

Maybe, if they did end up boring, or stupid, or awful... she could at least make them apprentices. Witches took on hapless apprentices all the time. Lot of those first born claims were probably charity cases, honestly.
Fenn is blind, and as she's older, will take all of her character insight from tone.  If you are ever uncomfortable with an assumption she makes, please let me know!
