[ She smiles happily as he scoops her up, comfortably leaning into his arms and chest. The thought that she might come to love the motion never crossed her mind before he had started to pick her up. Yet, now, she finds it is something for the two of them to enjoy--and something to help him see how much he cares for her already.
As for Ishgard? The city will always need her Knights.
Alkaid puffs her cheeks slightly. Oh, she knows he does very much like her assistance in removing armor at night. She merely wonders how long he will allow her to now that she is with child. She is already much smaller than him, and helping with the heavier parts of his armor is a challenge now. She doubts he will ask her for her aid in that regard once she begins go show.
Once they are in their room, Alkaid gestures to head straight to the bathroom. She slips down from his hold and begins to gather what they will need for their bath--but letting him handle the temperature of the water and how much.
Then, she turns to him once the items are settled and the tub slowly filling. Her hands curl around his and not the straps of his armor. After a moment, she guides their joined hands to rest against her belly. Her ears fold to her head as she frowns, letting the worry and minor sense of anxiousness show now that it is merely the pair of them. ]
I-is it alright that...[ Alkaid looks down with a frown as pink takes her cheeks.
Is he truly happy she is with a child even after adopting the siblings? She has said she has always wanted to give him children, and he has always wanted a child of his own. Yet, now, she finds herself worried he may not be pleased with the turn of events.
Her voice falls to a more quiet tone: ] Are you happy... or is it unwanted...?
