    "Ok,"
    Sunny says, accepting the answer. "I never had a baby before. I don't think I'm pushing." She does have tendencies towards being a workaholic, but she hasn't fallen back into those habits too hard since returning from the prolonged honeymoon.

    "You haven't so far, but just keep Popcorn in mind when you're working, okay?"
    Bugs asks her with a smile in his eyes, still thrilled that she's having a child.

    Front Gate 2.0

    "If it were a trap, we'd have said 2 thousand and say that you could come in for coffee." The guard snarks.

    Front Gate 3.0

    Anna nods. "Is there anything else that you need from us?"

    Front Gate 4.0

    (Noodle, before I continue this scene, please get the story straight. You mentioned Marius' father being the one to burn down the house, but now you're saying that Marius himself is the one to blame? There's this, plus if Marius is from Cylar then he couldn't have burnt down his own house Inside either, can he? Please respond in the OOC thread)

    "I promise." Sunny says.

    They move on to the exam, where Bugs will find that Popcorn is perfectly healthy and normal, except for being smaller than a full human baby would be at this stage.

    During the exam, she tells Bugs why she and Carl have been calling the baby 'Popcorn'. "When I lie still, it feels like there is popcorn popping in my belly. I don't know if it's the baby, but I hope it is."

    Bugs smiles warmly during the entire exam and chuckles when Sunny tells her story. "Maybe it is, Sunny." He says encouragingly as he puts up the ultrasound device. "Sunny, congratulations. It's a beautiful and perfectly happy baby boy."

    Gate 3.0

    Weaver will be allowed to leave when she wishes.

    Gate 4.0

    "Explain the circumstances and we'll put out a Bounty with his description for Arson and Murder." The guard tells Thernadier.

    Unless he's on active duty, his phone is beeping right now with a text message sent empathically from Sunny. It just says "Infirmary "

    Marty Aceford was in his house. With some womanm. He was evidently making some form of food. I have been hunting him. When I found his home I entered and Marius knocked me out with a table leg and shot me. He then was trying to get rid of the evidence by burning his home. An unidentified figure saved me. One of his employees had come to rescue any survivors but he dissapeared in the fire. Dead. Thus, Marius is a murderer, and he assaulted me.

    Bugs chuckles and returns the hug. "Again, congratulations Sunny." He tells her before he lets go. "I'll go fill out the paperwork while you go tell Carl, okay?"

    Carl texts her that he's on the way, but it'll take him a few moments to get there from the main offices.

    Front Gate 2.0

    "Do you have the money?" The guard asks. "We'll need that before we let Celesto go. We can let you talk to him in the meantime, but that's all."

    Front Gate 4.0

    The guard writes down the information and assuming Thernadier provides a description, writes that down as well. "Alright, we'll release the bounty to the public. You can go now."

    Thenadier bows slightly at the man. It's good to see that the law is enforced sir. When will the bounty be posted and where? I know his location. By the way, this is what Thenadier looks like. He's wearing his bland coat.

    Sunny doesn't answer Bugs, still too happy for words. She does manage to get down from the examining table and get dressed by the time Carl arrives. Once he walks in the door, she pulls him into a hard kiss before whispering in his ear, "Boy."

    Carl laughs merrily as he kisses back fiercely. He's speechless and full of joy, nearly overwhelmed by the news.

    Gate 2.0

    On the wall, one of Remnant's Battle-casters looks over the chest from a distance to see if it is magically trapped.

    The Matron will be let into the gate, but only she will be allowed, none of her escort. Once in, she'll be scanned magically and technologically as well as frisked. "Any weapons you wish to declare? They will be returned when you leave."

    Gate 4.0

    "It'll go up as soon as possible and at the Taverns and Remnant stations. And if you knew where this man was the entire time, and claim to be part of the law, why haven't you captured him and brought him in?"

    Standing out here at the front gate all day isn't really going to accomplish much, for this arresting business...


    As for the little black balls, they appear to be a compilation of earth and fire energy, although primarily the former, given some form of (minute) sentience and life.
    Enough to look very thoroughly distressed by the present situation.

    And probably storm over to Arla if she allows, to cozy up to her feet.
    Perhaps comfort in larger life?

    Eventually Carl has to return to work. Sunny walks him out, until she sees a little trail of sapphire coloured sparkles. Each sparkle fades and vanishes as she touches it, a simple illusion. Sunny knows what they are. Her sister sheds sparkles subconsciously if she doesn't make an effort not to, and the colour reflects her mood. The dark blue is an indication that she's focused on something serious.

    The sparkles lead Sunny to the medical library, where Charity is studying for her EMT certification. Other people are here as well, doing their own research. Sunny sits down next to Charity and leans over. "Cherry... it's a boy."

    Charity represses her squeal, but she can't repress the little shower of happy multicoloured sparkles that attract a few glances. She hugs her sister tightly, then pulls her into a private room where they can talk without interrupting the others.

    "Did you tell Carl?"

    "Mhm! You're the fourth. First Popcorn told Bugs, then Bugs told me, then I told Carl, and now I'm telling you." Sunny says.

    Of course everyone would have been just as excited if they'd heard it was a girl. The excitement stems from the baby becoming a little more real to everyone - a person, not just an idea.

    Charity giggles at the progression. "I bet Carl is telling Vas now. I might not be fourth. I might be fifth."

    "Maybe," Sunny agrees. She takes out her tablet computer and pulls up the list of names she and Carl had been working on. "Anita is a girl's name, right?"

    "Mhm."

    "Good. I don't like Anita!" Sunny says, and crosses it off on the list. Sunny's language problems give her trouble identifying what 'sounds' like a boy's name or a girl's name, but she has Google and Charity to help her out, as they cross all the girl's names off the list.

    "Alexander isn't bad," Charity says.

    "I thought that was a girl's name," Sunny says.

    "No, Alexander is for boys. Alexis or Alexandra is for girls."

    "It's too long."

    "What about Neil?"

    "Too short."

    The conversation goes on for a while, with Sunny rejecting most of the names offered.

    "Sunny, why is this so hard?" Charity finally asks.

    Sunny bites her lip, trying to find a way to put it into words. "Because - I don't want to mess up. A name is important. I want it to be the right name for Popcorn. And it has to be his name. If we name him for someone else, it isn't the same."

    Charity isn't sure she fully understands, but she thinks it must be tied into the lingering trauma from when her sister had lost her identity. She takes Sunny's hands.

    "Sunny, what is your name?"

    "Aurora Lapham Evans." Sunny answers.

    "Aurora means dawn. So I started to call you Sunshine when you were a baby, because it was easier to say. And you called me Cherry because it was easier for you. And that's why we got our tattoos together," she says. Sunny's tattoo of a sun is just under her right collarbone, and Charity has a tattoo of a pair of cherries on her left thigh. "Give Popcorn the best name you can, but if he needs a different one, he'll find one. And it'll be okay. I promise. You won't mess up. And you still have months to decide"

    Sunny isn't convinced, but she is comforted. Eventually she puts away the tablet and changes the subject. "Are you going to learn how to do births?"

    "I'll be there for you. But I'm not studying to be a midwife."

    Sunny bites her lip again. "Can you? Is there time?"

    "Not for me to get certified. But I can study it for you. Of course I can. Hon, what's wrong? What are you worried about?"

    "Bugs is sick. He says he'll be okay, but what if he isn't?"

    Infirmary - Bugs' Office

    Bugs finishes the paperwork for the day and files it all away, both paper and electronic copies in case something happened to one. Taking a seat behind his desk, he gives a small wince as a slow pain grows through his knees, relieved as he finishes. As healthy as he was, and as "young" as he was, his experiences in this messed-up world were taking their toll on him.

    Looking at the time, he punches himself off shift with a tired smile. Opening his top drawer, he pulls out a bottle of scotch and pours himself some. Before he closes the drawer, a glint of copper catches his eye. Setting the bottle aside, he pulls out a little name-plate, given to him years ago. Running his thumb over the letters, he can't help but chuckle a bit as tears spring to his eyes, remembering the one who gave it to him in celebration of him becoming head doctor for the Empire.

    He nearly puts it away after wiping his eyes, but thinks the better of it and puts it on the front of his desk.

    "Haaaaappy birrrrrrthday to meeee...Haaaappy birrrrrthday to meee...."
    Samuel "Bugs" Gale sings quietly to himself, raising his glass to the fallen.

    Front Gate 1.0

    Arla frowns at the soot-balls and pulls out a small gold coin and sets it on the ground. "Go get a drink at Trog's and enjoy yourselves." She orders them before dropping the shield.

    Edijar gestures for Ghoul, Kirk, and Feia to follow him Inside. Kirk will need to be searched and hand over his weapons. Unless Feia objects somehow, she'll be taken to a cell and given her new personal effects. Ghoul and Kirk will be taken to an office to take down their official statements about the fight, Kirk's Slavery and anything else of importance for the moment.

    (Sorry for handwaving it, but I figure it'd be easiest for Kirk and Ghoul to just say what all happened instead of being asked question by question)

    Front Gate 2.0

    "Open the chest and pour it out." One of the guards orders the duer'gar.

    After the Matron is searched, she's escorted by three heavily armed guards to Celesto's cell.

    Front Gate 4.0

    The guard sighs, refraining from telling Thernadier about vigilantism to keep him from getting ideas. "Alright. You may go now. We'll put up the Bounty for 5k momentarily."

    (Noodle, post in OOC with details about Marius, his looks, where he might be, etc with a note that Remnant has a bounty on him for five thousand gold.)

    Celesto's cage will be unlocked, but the Psi-Inhibitor will be left on his head. "We will escort you out of the city. Matron, if you have any more business Inside, we will escort your associate alone. Due to the nature of his crime, he has been exiled from Inside. Should he be found inside Remnant jurisdiction, he will be arrested again, but without any chance to have him out on bail."

    (Was the gold magical or not? It was examined earlier but you never said.)

    The gold pieces aren't magical save one. It will be hard to find though. Baen're ignores the guard. Fine, whatever.

    ((Handwaving is just fine. In fact, I prefer it.))

    Kirk forks over no less than seven knives. That is, unless they search him well enough to find his final and most hidden knife. He cheats with extra dimensional space with that one.

    In any case, he isn't going to use it. The drow will give his account, with most of the important details. He makes a point to not mention any sexy times that may or may not have been had. >.>

    "So...a boy." Bugs says with a slight smile, leaning back in his chair as he savors another glass. "Second best birthday gift ever." He tells Charity before giving her a wry smile. "First was my own kid."

    Gate 2.0

    The combat mage speaks into her commlink before shegets off the wall and walks to the pile of gold to pull out the single magic piece, examining what spell is on it. The rest of the dozen or so Guards keep their guns trained on the duer'gar as she does so.

    Celesto's Cell

    The guards freeze when told about the magic in the chest, and they ready their weapons. "Reinforcements to Cell 4-G." One says out loud before looking at the Matron. "What is the nature of the spell on the gold?"

    The soot balls peer at the gold as it is placed down for them, gathering around it and poking at it a bit with their tiny fingers.
    After a moment, they look up at Arla with curious looks.

    And then one splits in half, a bit like a capsule container, and proceeds to consume the gold piece in three apparently easy bites.
    "Om nom nom!"

    The others are proceed to look very expectantly at Arla, apparently not quite grasping the "go get booze" concept and instead grasping a "She has food? Food! We want food!" concept.


    [Prison?]

    Feia makes no objections anywhere, rather patiently being led along and giving/receiving whatever is necessary.

    The gold piece has an eye on it. It peers at the mage. The eye has some kind of divination spell. It's a spying device.That's mine, whoops. I must have dropped it in the pile.

    "What happened?" Charity asks softly, sensing a tragedy.

    [Front Gate 1.0 - Inside - Office]
    ((Hand-waving is fine. I hope this is what you were intending:))

    Lead into an office and asked to give a rundown? Not bad but Ghoul did suggest that she could just upload the sensory data from the battle to save time. Of course, this would be after the cursory glance around, assessing the level of security of what she could see. It was really just a force of habit, though.

    Regardless, the muse's account would first touch upon the initial question toward Feia, asking if she would simply save everyone time, effort, and bullets by coming quietly. When denied, Ghoul mentioned the result of her failed surprise attack and her bemusement on how Feia's defenses were more translational than ablative as she had been expecting. The muse offered up the firing data from the incident, showing that the damage done to the building was from this translation of force as the pair of slugs would have collided just behind Feia after passing through her; the impact of which would have caused the rounds to disintegrate.

    And then there was the recount of that aqua-sphere thing, the end of which resulted in her getting a body full of needles from that damn robot. She honestly hadn't paid it much attention up till then. Then Feia did her earth diving thing only to come up shooting crazy magic everywhere. The rest after that was just avoiding magic like the plague until she burned herself out... For a moment and then she turned back into a dragon. Kirk had fired a few times at her but in the end, it was her own napalm storm that had done her in... And left the place a mess as far as she could tell.

    "When the storm was getting fierce, I asked Kirk to get us out of there while I tried administering some self first-aid. Went to a hospital in Riverside after that." Ghoul concluded, finishing her moderately long recount of events.

    Front Gate 1.0

    Kirk and Ghoul

    The guards aren't too pleased with the accounts, but record it all. In the end, a case is set on the table in front of them. "Ten Thousand Gold to split between the both of you. Five thousand has been removed to repair the collateral damage you caused."

    Antagonist

    A dozen armed Remnants surround the block as Anna and Aliz, the leaders of the Combat Mages, begin to cast binding spells on it designed to keep the shape contained as it is, as well as restraining any magic that might emanate from it. Taul, cleric of Hel, adds his own bindings, designed to restrain the soul and mind instead. Once done, they'll float the block down to a vault, a plan for dealing with it already in mind.

    Mother-Feia

    "We can heat up your cell. Remotely. Any specific temperature? Other than that, do you have any dietary needs that must be taken care of?"
    Edijar asks. Unlike a "prison cell", this one is somewhat more state-of-the art and more comfortable.

    Arla

    The priestess growls and gives a gesture that's accompanied by the sound of a shrieking eagle. If successful, the sootballs will find themselves floating in a golden nimbus before being flung across Inside to Trog's Tavern, away from Remnant.

    Gate 2.0

    The combat mage reports her findings over the commlink, and the guards at Celesto's Cell lower their weapons slightly even as reinforcements arrive. "We're leaving. Matron, you are no longer welcome inside Remnant Jurisdiction either due to admitted Espionage." The guard says before trying to lead them out of Remnant. "If you wish to speak to us again, you may talk through us at the Gates of the City."

    The combat mage takes the magicked coin and opens a vial of acid at her waist to drop it in to try and destroy it.

    Infirmary - Bugs' Office

    Bugs gives a slight and rather tired smile before reaching for a picture frame on his desk, running his thumb over the corner. "I believe you already know, Charity." He says with slight pain in his voice before offering the picture to her. When she takes it, she'll see a familiar picture of a pretty brunette girl. "I think you and Rebecca would have gotten along very well."
