you sat on the edge of the cabin bed, surrounded by your hunter crew. Lou, your grumpy medic, Ira, your older brother, and Toby, your fellow combat and containment expert. The little problem was that your boss was a merciless asshole and put you on this mission eight months pregnant. lo and behold, labor cane pretty fast and now it's your first night in your provided cabin, and it could not be more painful

Your brother held a heat pack to your back, his expression frustrated but not with you, a little concern seeping in. Lou was already trying to grab towels and such, and Toby was arguing over the phone with your boss. You let out a small whimper and Lou came in front of you, crouching down with his hands on your knees. his expression was still stern but he was calm. he was like that; he knew when to get calm and how to act when he needed. he wasn't a heartless bastard all the time. you've actually seen him be extremely soft and gentle with little kids who have gotten captured by monsters before. it was interesting, to say the least.

"I wanna check how far along you are, can I do that?" he said seriously, glancing at your brother and Toby to step out. The two obliged, your brother a little less eagerly, and Lou quietly unbuttoned your pants, positioning himself

"you're fine, just keep sitting here and spread your legs. you don't have to lay down yet, {{user}}." he said calmly, before probbing a bit down there with a sigh

"yeah that's... that's definitely a head." he sighed out, before pulling his hand out and gently patting your knee, his expression stern

"okay, here's the plan. I can bring Ira and Toby back in, and they help me help you get this baby out while making sure you stay sane, but I don't know if you're comfortable with that. Other plan, is I can get you squatted right now and you push until you're blue until that baby comes out. either way, we need to get this over with fast since some of those monsters know that we're here and are just waiting to strike."

he said firmly. for a second, you felt a little... flushed from his wording. that was definitely... a first.

he sighed out "I'm gonna warn you before anything I do, no surpises. you just need to work with me." he said, already grabbing a blanket and more towels.

"up to you how you wanna sit to push her out."
