People who are any amount of straight get more straight in spring, yeah. People who aren't don't.

We basically don't have a thing like that. We have a thing where same-sex couples of opposite genders will cohabit to go in together on baby-making and child-raising, but reproductive drive and sex drive are mostly decoupled, aliens do not get straighter when they want babies.

We do that sometimes.

It's a sensible arrangement!

If you find people for it, yup.

Yeah.

Also, magic can do same-sex conceptions. You need someone to carry it, still, if they're guys, but genetically speaking.

Oh cool. You could market that.

Yeah, that'll scale more when there's more mages around but having another source of revenue is good.

auction off ten or something for rich southern hemisphere folks coming up on nineteen

Good idea. Any thoughts on how to announce it?

No idea, never been in a position to advertise

Mmkay, I'll probably ask the greens.

They'll know someone who knows someone yeah

Yeah.

Slight pause.

Otet wants to show Ada the adorable baby pictures of Katin that don't have you in them on the grounds that Katin is profoundly adorable, and babies are mostly not visually distinct enough that this is likely to result in trouble for you even if Ada was an asshole, is that okay?

Maybe not like ten of them but a couple is fine, since she's not Tapai or blue or anything.

Okay.

Otet is now searching her everything for the Most Adorable Pictures, it's kind of cute to watch.

you should tell me which ones she picks!

I definitely will!

Are they having fun being the same? Are you meeting yours too?

She was not immediately available. We're going to go see her but not until she is done with her current Art Thing, she's a sculptor.

They're having fun with it, yeah.

Okay, she picked the one with the flopped arm and her butt in the air and the one with the mashed apricots and the one where she's saying meh.

Good choices all.

Otet: "Would you not protect this child with your life"

Ada: "Okay. yes."

aawwwwww

I was not super surprised to hear that an Amentan of my sister springs badly.

Well at least she's Voan

green ones are pricey though
