Suddenly next to her, Frey placed their hands on her belly, and where they touched the flesh, softly pinkish light seemed to unfurl and radiate from within the witch. Inside the baby gave a happy kick that might normally have been quite uncomfortable, but beneath Frey's fingers was instead actually mildly pleasurable. "Strong." They mused, appearing oddly happy and content which, had Vai been privy to any of Frey's interactions with other mortals, would have seemed strangely out of character. Moving their hands in smooth patterns over Vai's belly, the witch would feel relief of her aches and pains and from the literal and metaphorical weight of the life she carried. "Boy." Frey announced proudly, leaning back into their own chair with a smile.
