Impish love

"Talking with your mother in-law, and cravings"

Hermes's POV:

I sigh as I finish another message from Ares to Athena, probably something about another Sparta vs Athens thing.

I went to the market place for lunch when I was done with my delivery run.

and as I flew through the marketplace, I noticed some maternity wear that made me blush thinking of Panic wearing a maternity dress.

Also I can't help but wonder how pregnant imps look due to they're small size.

"Pfft Panic might look like he ate a melon" I laughed softly to myself, as i thought of Panic with a baby tummy.

I thought Panic would want something to eat brought three things for Panic: a beef gyro meal from speedy pita, a dark teal maternity dress, and some medication for his morning sickness....

"I wonder what it will be like for me dealing with a pregnant Greek imp/god hybrid would be like...." I ask as I look at what I picked up.

I frown as I remember the fates revealed to Olympus at Uncle Hades' trial that Pain and Panic's mother was a hybrid as well but I don't remember what that creature was...

Panic's POV:

I smile softly as Hera tells me about how my pregnancy will work due to my hermaphroditism, as well my real mom had..an accident when I was little and I can't really go to her...as she is currently 'cursed' and trapped by her half father...

"I think the child is determined by what you eat... if I'm right if you eat enough food from Olympus the baby would be a godling, and Hades said if you eat food that you ate when You were in the underworld the baby would be a Greek imp" Hera explains to me.

"Ok.....and what about the litter thing?" I ask curious and worried as I know a bit about my kind's pregnancy.

"Well... I believe your kind depending on your mental state and health depends on how long till the next baby is born, your species can hold development of your baby if it's not safe, then when it is the development will continue. You'll also give birth to one, then a few months later have the other, and etc." She responds as she pours me some more nectar.

"Each baby will be different don't worry~ also your species can hold the father's um...'baby batter' inside you for a long time, your mother actually was on the run so her mental state wasn't the best, and she had stored some of your father's 'baby batter' inside her the whole time while developing Pain."

She continues "That's why you were born 3 years after Pain, but you were born on the same day as Pain" she looks at me with a smile.

"But no worry Your pregnancy will be a typical normal greek imp pregnancy at least that's why Hippocates your family doctor says" Hera explains.

I nod trying to process it all, as I gently drink my now full cup of warm nectar which I dip some of my ambrosia muffin in and take a bite into it after I dunked it.

"I'm glad I have someone who doesn't mind talking to me" I say nervously, as I did help turn her second youngest into a mortal.

Also after what happened before with Ares and Apollo some gods and goddesses must not like that I'm here.

Hera just smiles at me and takes a sip from her cup, "Well I don't hold grudges, Panic if you ever need to talk I won't mind"

She smiles and then she takes bites of her own muffin.

then we talked for 30 mins by the time Hermes came back.

Hermes's POV:

I fly into my apartment to see: my mom and Panic talking and chatting, I watch my mom as she smiles, at the sight of me.
