Oh gosh, now I feel like doing an all-nighter and reading all the good kidfic again!

I love this so hard <3

All-night ficathons, ftw! Sometimes there's really just nothing I'd rather do.

Thanks!

Very, very cute! And i see the baby is more Vulcan than human (like Spock really, lol), that will be good for helping out the Vulcans with so few left. And hopefully in this world they won't make fun of the kids for being part human, as they did with Spock after everything that happened.

[afallenseraphim]

Thank you very much!

Hah! Like anyone would dare. They'd have photon torpedoes aimed on their ass so fast...

Awww, so cute! I'm not a huge fan of mpreg, so in my mind the baby is an Old Vulcan orphan they adopted/are looking after. And they're not together yet, but the baby kept crying whenever one of them tried to leave, so they eventually gave up and slept in the same bed! :D

Lol, I'm glad you took the time to take a gander and comment even through the subject matter isn't much your thing. I'm down with your version (especially the non-established bit... because even if they're still at that semi-yo mama! stage in their relationship, who could possibly resist those pointy Vulcan ears? And I'm not just talking about the baby).

I like Mpreg, but it's not an all inclusive thing. I appreciate it only in certain contexts, really. Like futuristic, scifi settings or magical and supernatural settings- basically verses where the laws of physics and biology are already pretty malleable. Even then I need some platform. I don't much care for poof!pregnancy, I like some sort of explanation. If it's well written and thought out, I'll buy that java (but I have that stance with most tropes in fiction anyway).

Thank you!

Yeah, I get where you're coming from - I have enjoyed a couple mpreg fics in the past (one because it hit some bizarre fertility kink I didn't know I had...), but they've been few and far between. And I definitely have issues with poof!babies too! Although my biggest facepalm is when authors are 100% cool with mpreg but draw the squick line at male lactation... which is actually possible in the real world. Go figure.

Also, because I was evidently too spaced out earlier to comment on technique, the artwork is gorgeous, the shading is lovely, the composition is so warm and cozy, and I love that you made the baby a total butterball! And you should do more K/S art outside of events. Like, a ton more. :)

hmmmmmmmm.... love it!!!!

[afallenseraphim]

I'm glad! Thanks for the comment

That's so clever and beautifully drawn! There is pointy ears on the baby so there's Vulcan genepool in there. And is that a StarFleet ipad? I think I want that more. And StarFleet rugs!

[afallenseraphim]

Thanks!

(Hint: Like Jim would carry any other genepool around in him for 9 months)

Lol, Starfleet iPADD, yes! I'm at the point where I've just accepted that all of our consumer technology from here on out is probably based on space! technology from one science fiction series or another that happened through the 70's. Maybe the 80's, if you include DeLoreans and forget about crimped hair and members only jackets

It surprised me but apparently a lot of people recognize that it actually is carpet/rug! I couldn't tell if it was one of those things that actually translated, or if I could only tell what it was because I put it there.
