She looks at the labels. "- do I just drink the milk one -"

"- probably - " he reads them - "yeah. These two you'd feed the baby, this one I think you have to take every day for it to work..."

"About that last, it's a bit late to be very worried about sinning very much but I think it's against my religion."

"Okay. I'll love as many as we have, it's up to you."

She kisses him and drinks the milk one.

He pulls the piano out of his pocket and expands it in the corner.

"Ooh -" She attempts to put Catherine in the crib. Catherine fusses. Rebecca picks her up again, props her up on one shoulder, and plays one-handed. She's rusty but knows what she's doing.

"Can you show me how to hold her?"

Permalink

"Sure - they're not as fragile as they seem really, it's only you have to keep track of their heads or they flop -" She demonstrates various angles at which Catherine can be held.

He will attempt this!

"There you go, you'll get used to it more with practice." And now she has two piano-ing hands.

He sits on the bed and bounces Catherine and watches.

She gets to the end of her piece and starts over again, playing a little faster and more smoothly.

Rebecca is pleased with her impulsive life decisions, too!

Rebecca is really into the kissing but awkward about the hungry. There are conflicted noises.

Permalink

He pulls back. "Mmm?"

Permalink

"Uh, the last time I got into bed with a guy intending just to fool around I wound up in a convent and you do seem very serious about the marrying me thing buthavenotdoneityet."

Permalink

He mostly suppresses a sigh. "Right, sorry." Chaste kiss. 

Permalink

She sighs, relieved, and kisses back.
