"I have magic fingers, remember?" Aerith laughed, wriggling her fingers on one hand while she held her daughter securely in the other.
She kissed the top of Ashlynn's head gently, watching her reach out for Farvardin.
"Did you want your brave kitty?" she smiled. "You love Farvardin, don't you?"

Farvardin responded almost instantly, trotting over with his tail wagging.
"Brave kitty at your service" He said, bowing low and giving a purr like chuckle, "He loves the attention."

Ashlynn tried to lean over and pat the robotic creature, instead whacking him gently on the head with a tiny hand.
"Gentle Ashie baby," Aerith warned, taking the little girl's hand.

Farvardin murred slightly and rubbed his head, but he didn't mind so much.

Aerith sighed as she walked back and forth in the nursery, patting Ashlynn's back gently, trying to soothe her. The little girl had been crying non-stop for several hours now. By now, Aerith was exhausted and frustrated. Most of the time, she felt she could understand her children, but right now, she was beginning to resent the language barrier between them.
"Please baby, what's wrong? You're not hungry, you're not tired, you don't need a change..."
She sighed again, desperate for a break. Zack was away at the office for a routine check-up - he was still in charge after all - but Ashlynn had been crying since early in the morning before he left.
"I hope you'll cheer up when Daddy gets home... is that what you want? Daddy?"

Ynyr was quiet, unlike his sister, but he'd started fussing in recent hours, squirming and kicking his legs. He seemed unhappy for some reason.
Zack had gone into the office just to check up on a few things, he'd intended to only be a few hours, but thanks to a rather untimely problem in the recruits he'd been held back quite a while to deal with it but now he was finally on his way home.
He was pulling into the driveway when he started to hear the screaming. Ashlynn was still crying...
He frowned and turned off his bike, hurrying inside. "Is she alright?" He asked as he entered the room where Aerith fussed over the squalling baby.

Aerith looked up when Zack returned.
"No..." she said, looking like she was ready to cry too.
"It's been non-stop since you left. I don't know what to do..."
Her shoulders started slumping as she looked over to Ynyr. He didn't look happy.
"Please Yn, you've been such a good boy so far..."

Zack moved briskly over and gave Aerith a warm hug.
"Go get yourself a drink Aerith, i'll see what i can do." He released her and took Ashlynn gently in his arms, wincing as she continued to scream.
"Aww c'mon cherib, Daddy's here. What's the matter?" He asked, rocking her gently, he frowned though noticing she was awfully hot in his arms.

Aerith didn't go to get a drink. Instead she moved to collapse into the nursery chair, utterly exhausted.
"Should we call the hospital?" she said, eyes closed.
"This isn't natural... Surely I'm not this horrible a mother..."

Zack was still rocking the wailing child and turned to look at Aerith.
"I don't think its you." He said, smiling gently at her, "She feels very hot." He turned to leave the nursery, still holding her carefully, "I'll call Darts."

Aerith nodded, forcing herself back up to her feet to move to to Ynyr's crib. She picked up the little boy carefully.
"Don't worry... I know you don't want to be apart," she whispered softly, turning to follow Zack.
