25 Unicorn Street- Friday morning

[throughaphase]

Kitty had a bad habit of overthinking things, and the last couple weeks had given her a lot of material. And after overthinking all through getting ready for today, she decided she should probably address it.

She went downstairs, saying, "So, should we talk?"

[For the husband!]

Comments

"You absolutely are," Kitty told him, reaching for his hand. "Not that I'm trying to talk you into anything, but there's zero chance Lexi would grow up the way you did. The fact that you even consider that tells me a lot."

"I know she wouldn't. For one thing, she'll have two of us," Clint said, squeezing her hand. "And you're awesome."

[throughaphase]

"That I am," Kitty smiled. "I admit, I spent all week thinking about this."

[so_hawkward]

"I... probably spent some time thinking about it too. Especially right after I said that to Lexi," Clint said. "I was wondering if I should have kept my mouth shut or something."

[throughaphase]

"Nah. I mean, if we don't have her by then she'll probably call us out," Kitty smiled. "But we probably should check in with each other about this kind of stuff. Especially when everything happened since the last time the subject even came up."

Clint sighed dramatically, shifting closer to Kitty and putting his arm around her. "You mean you want us to talk to each other like normal married people? Ugh, you ask for so much."

[throughaphase]

"I know," she said, snuggling up next to him. "We get through things like alternate universes and space bullets and tracksuits and kids and I still expect us to talk. I'm terrible."
