Outside, he entered the skimmer and spoke to her wordlessly. No need for the guards to know too much. What happened in there with their housekeeper? And what did you witness? He clearly had questions, but tried to keep them minimum until she was willing to share more.

Besides trying to physically stop me from going to find you? She grabbed me rather forcibly and she’s lucky I have as much discipline as I do. I was already keyed up by the presence of Leamas and this other being and you know when that happens how much harder my TK is to handle. And well… Ylana made sure they were outside of the house before she let even the thought float towards him, you know how much harder it is for me still when I’m hormonal. There, she had finally told him. He knew from when she was pregnant with Nikala how stress on top of the hormonal changes made her telekinetic abilities harder to keep in check. She had wanted to tell him earlier, but there had been so much going on since they arrived and this whole thing with Archannon and Leamas had been taking a lot of her focus, and that wasn’t even considering her helping Cosgrove with everything in the S&T Complex.

Michael was in the vehicle mentally listening to her. Hormonal? Was this another one of those weeks? Or was she…?

He slowly turned his gaze to her, his eyes meeting hers as he also glanced at her stomach as well. You’re pregnant? he asked, a hint of excitement in his mental voice.

OOC: Going to split this into an offshoot thread.
IC:
Ylana took a deep breath, trying to not steel herself against his delight. Yes, it was a happy and good thing, but the timing was terrible and not just because of Leamas. Yes, I am. I only found out very recently. I was hoping to tell you under better circumstances but… well, it is what it is, right? Did she sound slightly gloomy? Ylana sighed.

Bump

Michael beamed at her, wrapping his arms around her to give her a kiss. The circumstances don’t nearly mean as much as the news. What are your thoughts? he inquired, hoping she knew he wanted to know how she felt about it all. He knew she had her concerns, as she always had in the past. Knowing her thoughts now though was important to him.

Ylana exhaled harshly. I want to be excited about this, I do. It’s just difficult timing. I only went back to work a little while ago and I’m really enjoying it. But it’s busy and I don’t know how we’re going to juggle both our jobs, make sure Nikala is doing well, AND manage a new baby, even though we have people at the house to help us. They say you can’t have it all, all at the same time, and goodness knows I know that’s true. But I don’t want to give up my career. I’ve put it on hold long enough and I’m only just getting my feet under me here. Halai is trusting me to hold up my end and I don’t want to let her down.

~Ylana Eviros, CSO

Ylana’s husband nodded thoughtfully. One of the perks of being Governor is I get to make the decisions, no matter where I am. I’m sure that by the time this little one is here, I can allow the Lt. Governor to take one more while I manage some things at home. And even then, if something needs my attention, the right people would know where to find me. I can come home to take care of things any time I wish. Perks of being in charge of colony He gave her a bit of a smirk. Certainly having children was by no means an easy task. Raising required at the very least the presence of authoritative figures. Michael was by no means going to let it slide, and being Governor meant he could do as he sought fit given the circumstances of the colony’s progress.

Perhaps that helps a bit? he added.
