eyes on fire, you are the unforecasted storm
It takes longer for Hotaru to compose herself, admittedly. She had teased and needled about Deimos having children someday in the past, but somehow it had never actualized in her mind. She certainly hadn't expected to have such an intense emotional reaction on her own behalf either, but she aches with how solidly she knows Deimos deserves this. Having children had changed her forever. Now, she can watch parenthood change the closest family she has, and she can't wait to see it happen.
The thought forces her to wipe her eyes a second time around but at least Deimos had to as well. Composure settles on her shoulders quickly enough, though her eyes remain pink-rimmed and glassy. Gods, but Deepfrost is so soon. She'd been in Halo recently and hadn't even noticed a difference in Evie. Certainly not twins then, she'd be willing to bet.
"I would," she agrees with a matching impish grin, "and now I have the perfect disguise. We can shop around but I can do the purchasing, and you can be yourself posing as a friend?" He would be far too recognizable otherwise, so she puffs her lip out slightly, considering. "Or we could try and disguise you, though we're short on materials."
