REXANNA
they say that war is hell, but true hell begins when the battle ends —
Rexanna agreed with Phoebe, but there was nothing more she could say about it. She had grieved, mourned, and moved on eventually. It did her little use to worry on it now – especially without the worry of it from being with Bastien. It wasn’t an issue for her for the time being, but she appreciated the concern from her friend over the things she had endured. When Phoebe pulled back and left her hands on her shoulders, Rexanna did the same with a small optimistic smile on her lips. “Exactly.” She answered with a quiet smile. “You would be the first to know!” She offered, because who else would she run to if she found out? Especially if whoever the father was didn’t know her history. She’d want to make sure it was a reality before telling another soul.
She was relieved, however, when Phoebe mentioned she wouldn’t tell anyone. But the next series of words have her a bit of pause, uncertain of whether or not it was something she wanted. Would it be necessary if there wasn’t even the possibility of children? And with Rexanna being with Bastien, there wasn’t the possibility of an unexpected one. But… on the other hand, if the option presented itself, she’d want to do everything she could to make sure it would work. After awhile of contemplating, she smiled to Phoebe – a bright genuine one. “I would like that very much. But you should know, the Ascended can’t… well, raise their flags so to speak.” She said with a quiet laugh. “At least without some kind of intervention.” She thought of Lucas when she said that, the only ascended she’d known to be able to have one, and she wasn’t certain if it was just him or what the circumstances were. “But if there were a chance and I were ready, I’d like to be as prepared as I could be.” She hummed quietly, thoughtfully, while squeezing Phoebe’s arm gently in thanks. and you're the only one who's hands drip red. the real war rages in your heart; it always has. |

Phoebe I've been very hopeful so far Now for the first time I think we're going wrong Hurry up and tell me this is all a dream Or could we start again, please? Phoebe managed to laugh a little at that. "Well I would hope so! I am a midwife after all." she said with a grin. And she would be sure Rexanna was afforded every convenience she could offer...well...she would for any of her clients but Rex was special! She tilted her head as her friend considered. She supposed to someone not versed in the craft, it probably sounded very serious. But really it was just some medicinal teas to increase health. She brightened up when Rex accepted...but inmediately turned red when she explained uh...Bastien's situation. Then she took pause. "Did Bastien know that beforehand? Because it doesn't seem like something he uh...would have chosen for himself..." He had started a sex cult after all... "Well...if you really wanted children and he really cares for you as much as you say...I am certain he would let you pursue that." she said with a small smile. "So why don't we go back and I will get you set up?" the Penumbra

Phoebe I've been very hopeful so far Now for the first time I think we're going wrong Hurry up and tell me this is all a dream Or could we start again, please? Phoebe tilted her head to the side slightly as Rexanna spoke. Humble? Caring? Two words never in a million years that she would associate with Bastien. Probably never in two million. Probably not even if the gods threatened to smite her if she did not - and she had a really strong suspicion that it would never come to that anyways. But a small smile curved her lips as she looked at her friend. "Perhaps you are changing him for the better. You just might make a decent person out of him yet." she said with a light laugh. That light laugh turned into a slightly fuller laugh as Rex mentioned Frey might help. "Oh I am positive Frey would be more than happy to see you blessed with children. When I saw them last, everywhere they stepped bloomed with new life and they gave Emmett some leaves that if eaten apparently guarantee conception." she said, the little bit of brightness that had begun to show through dampening a bit. That was when she had thought her and Emmett would remain together for a long time to come. But...this wasn't about her. It was about Rex. "I think they would be very pleased to be asked to help...though you might end up with demigod children depending on their mood." she said almost teasingly. the Penumbra

Phoebe I've been very hopeful so far Now for the first time I think we're going wrong Hurry up and tell me this is all a dream Or could we start again, please? Phoebe nodded in response. "Yes. Though, if buried in a field they will grant a fruitful harvest so...I've a feeling that's what he used them for." she said with a bit of a sigh to back on the topic of Emmett and all the problems there. Then again she had been the one to bring it up so it was her own fault. "Demigods? I would assume so. I mean...if they weren't why would there be stories or myths of them?" she asked with a light shrug. The thought of them didn't really bother her at all. The likelihood that such a thing would come to pass seemed fairly slim to none anyways. She had meant it more as a joke. Phoebe tilted her head to the side. "It would be interesting. I wonder if they would just be...super human or if they would actually have godlike powers." she said and shrugged a bit. the Penumbra

Phoebe I've been very hopeful so far Now for the first time I think we're going wrong Hurry up and tell me this is all a dream Or could we start again, please? "We didn't either, just very powerful mages." Phoebe said, a bit glad to hear that her world wasn't the only one that lacked deities of such power. "But some of them I suppose were storied to have godlike power...and we revered our heroes almost like ones...But I bet if any, Safrin might have the answer to the demigod question. She seemed rather like she did not mind answering questions when I met her." she said with a smile. Perhaps Safrin would be willing to answer that. Seeing as they were both from worlds without gods, it was a curious thing...would a coupling of a deity and mortal lead to such a mixture that would create a demigod? Or would they just be one or the other? Or were they so different that they were just wholly incompatible? As usual, there were more questions than answers when if came to the gods. The domiciles were coming back into view, so they would be getting close to her clinic now so Phoebe could prep her friend some remedies. "I can't imagine any child with the same blood as a god could be anything less than gorgeous." she said with a small smile. "But with Frey it is hard to tell I think, because their appearance shifts...I more wonder after their personalities. Would they be just like their parent deity? Or would they more compliment them? Or would they be completely different?" Phoebe mused aloud. the Penumbra

Phoebe I've been very hopeful so far Now for the first time I think we're going wrong Hurry up and tell me this is all a dream Or could we start again, please? "Safrin is lovely." Phoebe said with a smile. "Though...she might be a bit dubious in your choice of men. Bastien insulted her. But other than that I think she seems the...safest of all the deities. Her blessing helped me survive Long Night." she explained. "And Ludo...I only met once and they think I am stupid. But they are also a trickster so if you do meet them be careful.". For a moment, she realized how...unexpected it was for her to discuss the deities. She had been so terrified of Frey upon first pass, and now she spoke of them all with a semblence of knowledge. It was an outcome she could not have predicted. The thought of a rebellious child of Frey made Phoebe snicker. "Imagine a child of Frey being a prude." she said, hiding her laughter behind a hand. "Everytime Frey removes a layer of clothing, two more appear." The thought was ludicrous but hilarious all the same. the Penumbra

Phoebe I've been very hopeful so far Now for the first time I think we're going wrong Hurry up and tell me this is all a dream Or could we start again, please? Phoebe smiled and nodded her approval. Good idea to leave Bastien home when visiting deities he had offended. "If you wish, I would be happy to go with you when you do visit Safrin." she said with a small smile. Some people would feel more at ease going to do something like visiting a goddess with someone who had done so before. Rexanna was very independent though, and may just prefer to do so on her own. Either way, the offer stood. She laughed lightly as Rex did, the image of a prudish demigod, child of Frey, danced in her mind's eye. "Or Frey would simply continue to do as they do and out-patience them and turn everything back how they wanted it." Phoebe said with a light laugh. Frey did seemed tuned into people's natures though. They might just find a way to use the prudishness against them. But again, this was all conjecture. Just for fun and probably entirely impossible - improbable at the absolute best. She opened the door to the clinic as they arrived and let Rexanna through. "Make yourself comfy. I will prepare you some supplements." the Penumbra

Phoebe I've been very hopeful so far Now for the first time I think we're going wrong Hurry up and tell me this is all a dream Or could we start again, please? Phoebe smiled a little as Rexanna settled down on a couch near her medicine cabinet. "Of course! I am more than happy to." she said, as she considered everything she had and what would be most helpful to her. Some remedies were more complicated and required special timing. Others simply had bad side effects that were too fiddly to mess with unless Rex had been trying to conceive for some time and failing to do so. Nothing like that was necessary. She just needed something keep her healthy and well and prepared, so when the time came she would ready to go. Settling on a few ingredients she carefully prepped a few sachets of tea, pulverising the dried red clover, chaste tree berries, and cinnamon and packing the mixture into small diffusing packets. She also prepared a small bottle of evening primrose oil, then brought the bag of goods over to Rex to see. "This is what you will do: boil some water before bed then let one packet steep in a cup overnight. In the morning add a teaspoon of honey and a drop or two of this oil. It has a rather strong, medicinal flavor I am afraid but the cinnamon and honey will help a bit. Oh, and if you have any cramping or anything during your menstrual period you can take a few extra drops of the oil, it will help with that." she said. | ||||||
