She had finished her lessons of plants with Mommy Mnem for the day and thus the hours soon after noon one could find her skipping down the streets, making her way opposite of the flow of traffic. Humming a merry tune she swung her tail being careful not to hit anyone with it. Taking a turn onto another street she made her way towards her Papa’s shop. It had been a while since she had been by to see Vessie or Mother Maji and she was feeling up for a visit. When she entered the small shop she saw that there were two or three customers wondering about the shop looking over the different pieces of work on display. Making her movements calmer in their nature, she made her way over towards the counter. As she approached the counter she spotted the pink ferret behind it. “Hello Vessie, how is the baby today?” |

 Truth to be told, Vessatha was falling asleep, which was never a good thing when you were minding a shop with people in it. Maji was around somewhere, but the ferret wasn't sure where, probably due to her dozing off every few minutes. A morganberry feline managed to prod her awake long enough to ask her a question that she now couldn't even remember; she'd given him a mumbled reply and fell right back asleep. Needless to say, she hadn't made that sale. The chime of the door woke her up once more, and the Forester opened an eye long enough to see the small but brightly hued mouse walk through. Vessatha might not wake up for a customer, but she would wake up for Elyse. "Hello dearling," She said sleepily. Baby? What? Absently the ferret rubbed her stomach.. and then remembered she was pregnant, so scowled. Vessa highly disliked being pregnant--moreso, disliked the symptoms of being pregnant, such as being insanely tired despite a full night of rest. "The baby has decided it is nap time, and is inflicting it's needs on me. Also, it's making my feet hurt," She grumped, though her tone wasn't entirely crabby. Was that.. almost affection? Nah, couldn't be. |

Maji heard the door open, it always opened...and she was not much of a sales woman and could usually be found in the back room and usually only came out when she really had to and this time of year thankfully she did not have to. She heard Vessie talking with some one that sounded familiar and she decided that she would take a little peek and see who it was. She walked over to the door or more like really large shutters and looked through them. She did not see any one there but the voice was much clearer, it sounded like Elyse. The child always made her smile as the ends of the fleshy part of her beak curved upward and her beak opened slightly. She heard the words pregnant and baby and nodded with a grin. She knew that Vessie was pregnant but it seemed that her pregnancy was different than her own had been and in a curious morbid way it intrigued her. She also wondered when Vessie would lay her egg. She had lay-ed hers way before this time and she was expecting Vessie to do the same any day now. All of the thought of babies and pregnancy suddenly caused her to remember things she did not wish to and with a scratching of her talons, she quickly returned to the back where she could hear even less of the conversation. No need to remember painful things while awake when it haunted her enough in her sleep. |

“How long will it be before the babies come?” She asked. She was really looking forward to meeting Miss Vessie’s babies . . . . Well out side of Miss Vessie’s the stomach, that was anyway. She had not really seen a new born baby up close before and she was a little interested to see what they looked like.
“If the baby is making you sleepy I can watch the shop for you while you nap. I can go get you a small tub of warm water so you can soak your feet as well. That should make them feel better.” She offered giving a few nods of her head, entering behind the counter as she spoke. It would be easy enough for her to answer any of the questions that the customers might have had, and if she could not then it would be easy enough to wake her for a moment.

"How long?" Vessatha repeated to herself. She hadn't bothered to count up the days recently, so took a moment to think about it. "No more than a month or so, I think. They're almost ready. Kick like little devils, too," She added on. Of course, as soon as she mentioned kicking, one decided it was playtime and began using the side of her womb as a drum.
"There one goes.. Want to feel?" Though Vessa was still in a sleep-induced haze, she managed to remember that most people who hadn't had kids were generally curious about it, so held her paw out for Elyse's.
At her offer, the ferret considered it. She really shouldn't.. Elyse was around enough, but probably not enough to know how to run it. Then again.. Majida was in the back, somewhere.. "Thank you love, that would be wonderful." She paused, then shouted, "Maji? Are you around?"
