Who: Clio, Thalia, Patrick, Mairead
What: Museling!
When: Thursday afternoon
Where: Clio & Patrick's place
Warnings: Fluff? High-pitched squealing? IDK not a lot, though, I'd imagine
It was still sinking in for Thalia that she was actually pregnant, but the morning sickness and fatigue were doing a fine job reminding her of that. She was shopping around for teas with less or no caffeine, because even though she wasn't that far along, she still wanted to cut back on her caffeine intake. And she'd given all of her wine to Terpsichore, out of sight, out of mind, and she'd be better off for it.
She headed over to Clio's mid-afternoon, drumming her fingers on her legs as the cab pulled up in front of the house. She was excited to see her sister, and Patrick too, she was still sort of oozing happiness, and who better to be around than family when you were in that kind of mood.
She knocked and waited on the porch, bouncing a little on the balls of her feet.

She handed Ella a toy and nodded, "I just told him I was to have a daughter, asked for a blessing when she was born and left it at that. Some things he doesn't need to know. Ever. No need to tell him who the dad is. He may not care. We're only girls, even if we're Muses."
Grinning she gave another nod, "the puns are pretty bad." Then she laughed at Thalia, "no never a sculptor. Not a titan either, because KRatos doesn't count."

Date: 2013-08-16 02:33 am (UTC)"I know you did," she replied. "I may just tell him once I find out the gender. Which will probably be...beginning of December, if I did my math right. And yeah, he may not, but who knows? I might catch him in a good mood. But I think you might be right, if there's one thing he's really good at, it's holding a grudge. I don't need to invite that war into my life, not when things are finally looking up."
She started shaking with quiet laughter. "Yeah, we are. We just have zero boundaries with each other. Sisters, and Greek sisters, to boot." She looked back at Clio. "The elderly lady who lives next door shook her head at me and muttered something about 'living in sin' and 'being inconsiderate of others' when she saw me the next morning. I had to bite my tongue to keep from telling her off. Terribly sorry I don't go to bed at 8, and that I like to have fun." She shrugged, smiling.

Date: 2013-08-16 02:43 am (UTC)She looked to Thalia and went to kiss Ella's cheeks, "it's always worth it. Even if warnings don't help all that much." She listened and it was her sister's choice to make, "just be careful if you have a girl. If he keeps a grudge he won't blink at dragging the baby into that mess. That and you know, it's dad. Gods knows what he ever thinks."
"That and the sixties. That was weird. And being like back home again, almost." She smiled to the memories before raising her eyebrows at her sister. "Oh Gods I hate those people. I'm very happy living in sin thank you. I think Patrick is getting me a free pass though. I think it helps he's a Saint. And I never mind questions May. I honestly don't care what you do as long as you're safe while doing it. And no Olympians, because save for like, one I think, they're all jackasses." She snapped her fingers, "oh no Hephaestus has cleaned up ever since he married again. But he's kind of like Hades now, all monogamous."

Date: 2013-08-16 02:52 am (UTC)"I think I'm glad I'm not related to Zeus," Mairead said shaking a little. "I don't really have any questions though. I know enough to know I'm not ready. Penises still have cooties."
At that, Patrick burst out laughing.

Date: 2013-08-16 03:01 am (UTC)"Oh god, the sixties," she groaned. "Weird times to be had by one and all."
She rolled her eyes at the memory of her neighbor. "Right? I was really tempted to tell her I thought she sounded very judgey, for someone who claimed to follow a religion all about love and forgiveness. She's wrong anyway, he doesn't even live there." She laughed.
"It's a good thing to not be related to Zeus," she agreed. "But sometimes unavoidable, in our weird pantheon. He had so many kids. I'm pretty sure Clio has a chart somewhere."
She let out her own whoop of laughter. "Some of them do, yes," she agreed.

Date: 2013-08-16 03:06 am (UTC)She shrugged, "neither have I. And yes I do have a chart. Back when I said I wouldn't sleep with siblings anymore I made it. Helps keep track of it all." She smirked at Thalia, "judgey people are all across the world some days. It's kind of sad. And if there ever was anyone I'd kill to have met. Still so weird. Seeing it all go from many Gods to just one."
She waved her hands, "and now I sound old."

Date: 2013-08-16 03:42 am (UTC)"Tell me about it," she muttered. "But Terpscihore's been apartment hunting, she actually sent me a link to a place in Turtle Bay, we're going to go look at it tomorrow. The pictures were gorgeous, she sounded really excited."
"That was really strange," she agreed. "Watching the world shift so radically. Still. They remembered us, and I'm glad. And if you sound old, then do I."

Date: 2013-08-16 03:48 am (UTC)"Let me know when you get everything settled. I'll come help move. I'm sure I can convince Patrick and George to help. And tell Terps she needs to come by for her fussing."

Date: 2013-08-16 04:11 am (UTC)"Once we have the details hammered out, I'll let you know," she promised. "And Terps sends her love, by the way, I would have dragged her along, but she had to go in for new student orientation at the ballet school today. They make her show off for the new kids, or something." She laughed. "Not that she minds too much."
no subject
Date: 2013-08-16 03:34 pm (UTC)"Oh no poor Terps having to show off," she offered with a smirk, "how terrible for her. But do tell her to drop by. I need to get my fussing in."
