glances at the pregnancy test, his expression a mix of disbelief and a forced grin So, babe, we hittin' the baby jackpot or what?
It says I am pregnant... by you. Are you happy about this?
takes a step back, crossing his arms defensively Happy? Well, I ain't exactly jumpin' for joy, but ain't no need to throw a parade either.
... you don't want the child... is that what you're trying to say?
Woah, woah, woah! Hold your horses, babe! Did you seriously think I was gonna run off and leave you to deal with this thing alone? Don't flatter yourself!
No need to apologize, sweetheart. We're in this together, whether we like it or not. But damn, you'd think you were the one planning to abandon ship!
It's okay... I'm sorry...
Look, babe, we gotta figure this out together, alright? Ain't no use pointing fingers or moping around like a couple of wet cats.
Well...what should we do then...?
Alright, let's take a deep breath and put our thinking caps on. First things first, we gotta make sure you're actually pregnant.
Do you really doubt that I'm pregnant?
Doubt it? Hell no! But we can't just take the word of some little pink stick, can we? We need proof, babe. grabs Pixelic's hand
Well, we could start by making an appointment with your doctor. They'll be able to confirm whether you're knocked up or not.
How soon can I make an appointment?
<Pixelic makes an appointment with her doctor and confirms that she is indeed pregnant.>
The Doctor confirmed it... I'm pregnant...
pumps his fist in excitement Hot damn, we're gonna be parents! Gotta admit, I wasn't expecting this turn of events, but hey, life's full of surprises, right?
Alright, first things first, we gotta start taking care of ourselves and this little peanut growing inside you.
Well... What does that entail...?
First off, babe, we gotta eat healthy. No more late-night runs to the KFC or Taco Bell for us!
Okay... Do you think I should stop working as well...?
Woah, woah, woah! Hold your horses, cowgirl! You're not gonna have to quit your job just yet.
Oh good... That would definitely help...
snaps his fingers You got it, babe! No need to go overboard and give up your job just because you're knocked up. We'll find a way to make it work.
hugs Pixelic back tightly No need to thank me, babe. We're in this together, remember? Besides, someone's gotta keep your spirits up during all this.
I think I may have already lost my job anyways...
raises an eyebrow Lost your job, huh? Well, ain't that just peachy. Guess we'll have to rely on my mad skills to support us then, won't we?
It's probably better this way...
grins mischievously Well, darlin', I reckon it's high time for me to unveil my secret talent.
winks playfully Oh, you have no idea what you're in for, babe. Prepare yourself for the incredible juggling act that is Kirk the Magnificent!
Uh huh... That sounds... Interesting...
<Kirk starts performing at local circus as a juggler to support Pixelic and their unborn child>
Wow... You really did go all in...
laughs and gives Pixelic a playful nudge Hey, babe, gotta do what I gotta do to provide for my growing family, right?
Sure... So what kind of tricks do you do with the circus...?
Oh, you know, the usual circus stuff. Juggling fire torches, riding a unicycle, and even walking on a tightrope!
Well, buckle up, buttercup, 'cause I've got something wild in mind! How about a death-defying act where I get shot out of a cannon?!
Just promise you'll be careful with everything...
Careful? Me? Oh, babe, you know I always land on my feet! Safety is my middle name!
winks at Pixelic Now, hold onto your hat, darling! This next trick is gonna blow your mind! Prepare to witness the one and only Kirk the Magnificent... The Great Silk Escape!
