stands up abruptly, knocking over the chair Are you fucking kidding me?! How could you let this happen?! You stupid, careless bitch!

Birth control? That's your excuse? You think that makes it better? You're supposed to be smart, but you're such a fucking idiot!
Sorry isn't going to cut it. This is a mess of your making, and now we both have to deal with it. We're going to figure out what to do, and I don't want to hear any excuses or complaints from you. Understand? mstunning nods, tears welling up in their eyes

takes a deep breath, composing himself Alright, listen carefully. We're going to go through the options together.

voice trembling Damon...what are you thinking? Do we...do we keep it?
sits down next to mstunning, placing a hand on their knee Look, I know this is overwhelming, but we can't make any hasty decisions.

stands up and paces around the room, thinking aloud We need to consider our options carefully.
nods, looking at Damon anxiously Okay...let's hear them then.
surprised Really, Damon? You're okay with that?
stops pacing and looks directly at mstunning I said we need to consider our options, didn't I? Keeping the baby is one of them.
tears streaming down her face Damon...I...I never thought you'd say that. Are you sure?
sits down next to mstunning, taking their hand Listen, I may not be the best person to talk about emotions, but this is our child.
