72 Howls: [Accidental Video]

Have a rather pregnant Mercy, looking a bit concerned.

Samuel? Where are you?

Where are we?



[ooc: Road Not Taken curse. Mercy never returned home to her mother's, she ran away with and eventually married Samuel instead.]

"This city, it pulls people in from everywhere, every dimension, every world, every timeline, I mean... everywhere. It's like some big science experiment." He felt the least he could do was explain what he could. "It's run by the beings called deities. And they like to put us through these curses. I think... this is your curse for today. Being... pregnant and knowing who I am. The whole Samuel thing..."

Mercy rubbed at her tears with the edge of a sleeve, trying to not be noticed. "It sounds horrible."

"It's... got its moments." He wanted to go hug her, but she had no clue who he was and was wondering where Samuel was and was pregnant. Now wasn't the time. So he just stood there. "I could make you some hot chocolate... or... something."

Mercy managed a teary smile. "You do know me. Hot chocolate would be really nice right about now."

She hesitated. "This... it must be odd for you - I mean, you - I'm not pregnant when you know me, am I? And Samuel? Am I married to him?"

"Coming right up." Derek was really glad for something to do. He continued to speak to her as he moved to the kitchen to start on some hot chocolate. "You're uh... well you told me that you ran away from him. Because he didn't love you the way you wanted to be loved. And no, you're not pregnant... not really." He hoped.

Mercy froze. "I told you about that? I don't tell anyone about -"

She ducked her head. "I started to, but then I thought maybe it could be enough. That maybe he was my only chance to have someone really care about me. Even if it was only because I could have his children. That maybe he was my only chance to, you know, have a family."

And that would be the tears starting again. Stupid, stupid hormones.
