Sima turned his head; wait a minute was that the mayor? "umm.." Sima was about to speak was interupted by him as he looked at Hotaru and attempted to poke her. Sima fekt horrible when he said that he was surprised she was alive. Sima lifted up his hands to show him the ring. "Yep" Sima chuckled slightly but kept most of his attention on the babies and Hotaru.
Sima looked at he mayor again. "What are you doing here anyway?" Sima then glanced at him and his mind went into deep thought. He was saying nothing about his demonic ears or the fact he was a demon and after all he did destroy his house and such. Sima looked at him with a curious look. "You notice anything different about me?" Sima softly spoke to him with a slight sigh before stretching.

The mayor nodded in response, "Of course I do, you're a daddy!" He cooed as Hotaru calmed down the surprised baby "Oh, and you have dog ears, but I don't mind, you're still you." Wow, that was pretty surprising, "If you plan on killing me, I'll just hold it against you that you owe me." Hotaru tilted her head but then went back to rocking the baby she had.
"Uh... what are you doing here?" Hotaru asked as she rocked to try to get the baby to sleep. The mayor slightly rolled his eyes, "I heard that somebody got knocked up, so I came to help." He laughed a little at Hotaru reaction, which was a rather surprised glare. "Hey, can't help it, I'm a daddy, you gotta feed them if you want them to sleep." Hotaru grumbled, then looked over to Sima.
"Give her the kid so we can go talk about how you can pay me back." The mayor said to Sima, not really threatening him, but he sounded rather... overjoyed? In their time, it was proper for only females to actually see when babies were fed. They didn't use bottles very often, and Hotaru wasn't planning on using bottles, unless she needed to. "You might as well Sima" Hotaru said to him, "You can come back in a bit, I'll send somebody to get you, promise" She smiled to him and played with the baby girl's hand, "Then we can start thinking about what we should name them" She said to Sima, looking down to the girl. She already liked that one, obviously.

Sima listened to the mayor ramble on. About things as money and children and his ears. Sima looked at Hotaru with a rather curious look and then to the mayor. Sima probably owed him alot didn't he? But he was curious to what he owed him. Sima handed over the babies gently to her. "If you need me just hollar" Sima smiled. Sima then followed the mayor to wherever it is he was following him.
"So, how much, do I owe you?" Sima asked curiously. Sima was still surprised that he didn't care he was a demon it was something not too many people shared.

Hotaru nodded as he left and continued doing what she was doing, laying one of the babies in front of her while she fed the other, then switching. This was what she would be doing for the next half hour or so. Blech.
The mayor just walked around the place, not bothering to sit, it wouldn't be that fast. "You owe me a lot." He said to Sima, looking over to him with a side glance, "But, since you're a new daddy and to two, I'll go easy on you. You don't have to pay it in full, but you do need to help repair, Hotaru can come along and stay at my place along with you." That was rather generous. What was the other thing though? There had to be another thing.
"Since I saw your ears and your kids, I knew I wouldn't ask for money from you." What did that mean? "You see, we're having some problems with some... beasts." He stated and rubbed the back of his head, and stopped walking, "It has forced me, Emile, and everybody else out of the town." He sighed, "So I was thinking that since you and Hotaru owed me, I'd go looking for you two." He stated, "I'd figured that one of you two would know how to deal with a dragon..." He said that slightly quietly.
Wait, a dragon?!

Sima looked at the mayor with slight curiousity form a form of multiple things. "A dragon?" This was the first thing that caught his attention of course. "Like a real dragon?" Sima had never fought a dragon; but how would his dragoon react to something like that aswell? "Is there any other type of monsters? Sima glared back thinking of Hotaru. He didn't want to put her in danger especially after her just giving birth.
Sima yawned slighty having another episode of extreme thought. "If I do go; you promise them protection while I go to slay the beasts?" Sima knew what HOtaru was going to say to that but he didn't want her to come she had enough going on as it is he just wanted her to relax and it was his debt not hers.

The mayor nodded, "I thought you would say that, you can just leave them with me and I will take care of them" he responded, "I will also hire a midwife to take care of them if Hotaru wishes to go with you." A midwife was somebody who had just recently had a child so they would be able to feed another. It was common in the past, as mothers of children often died while the child lived.
"If Hotaru doesn't want to help, or you want her to stay with me, I'll also keep her with me, but I'm not sure if she'd pass a dragon up." He said to him, as she did ask him about the dragon campaign, and she seemed like she had studied about it too. "But if she does want to leave me, I won't be able to stop her, and she can fend for herself. The pain wears off in a couple of days." He added, as he really would not be able to stop her. Well, knowing Hotaru, Sima might as well just take her with him.
Hotaru, meanwhile, had finished feeding them, and they were now sleeping on the bed in front of her, laying quietly beside eachother. She looked to a female who was sitting in the corner, "Could you get them now?" She asked, and the woman nodded, then went to find Sima and the Mayor.

Sima nodded slightly to the mayor already thinking of what Hotaru would react to something like that. Sima sighed slightly as he kmew she would most likely want to come. "I know she will want to come, but I feel like I won't be able to keep all 3 of them safe" Sima let off a serious look. "I want to be sure that I can't keep them all safe and the best way is to deal with it alone" Sima turned to the mayor with a plead type look.
"I know it sounds stupid but..." SIma sighed again. "So we should let Hotaru rest for a few days before heading to the town?' Sima asked curiously.

"Of course she should rest, you know what just came outta her?!" The mayor laughed slightly, "That would even hurt you boy." The mayor said, then turned to the woman "You may come back now." The woman stated then headed back to Hotaru. The mayor looked back to Sima, "Don't worry about the two kids though, they will be alright with me" He stated, "It should take you two all that long, Hotaru knows something about dragons, you're a demon, that's a good team to kill one." He said and then turned back to go back, "Now, to name your kids." He grinned to him then headed back.
Hotaru was looking rather tired, and was laying on the bed with her eyes closed. The woman had taken the twins off of the bed and placed them in a different on nearby so Hotaru wouldn't push them off by accident if she rolled or something. She was generally falling asleep when the mayor walked in, and she didn't even bother talking. She just flicked a finger at him, meaning she was still awake, and he noticed it. "Tired much?" Hotaru grumbled at his question.

Sima sighed slightly at the thought of Hotaru getting hurt; he should be getting used to bringing Hotaru to dangerous places by now right? Looks like Sima would have to deal with the worry of bringing her along. He enjoyed her company and it would make the trip to the dragon or the other beasts much easier. Sima looked at Hotaru with a smile as he took a seat on one of the nearby chairs. Sima could tell she was awake as soon as he noticed her flick her finger.
"How you feeling?" Sima's voice was soft as he spoke to her. Sima wouldn't tell her about the beasts or the dragon yet; unless the mayor had decided to already. He was going to tell her when she was in a more of a better state to discuss such matters.

Hotaru mumbled her answer slightly, a little bit indistiguishable because she was pretty much about to pass out. "I'm just tired..." She mumbled, but then she rubbed her eyes to make her eyes open, "You wanna think of names while I sleep?" She asked Sima, smiling a little. She didn't bother to move or sit up, she was too tired, and the blood loss had made her cheeks flush as if she had a high fever. That was pretty normal, especially after having two kids in the era they were in. Lack of nutrition and proper minerals caused a lot of blood loss, and the strong pain was because of the lack of medication that people used in the future frequently.
The mayor thought the same, as he thought that mentioning the dragon would just make her want to get up, and that wasn't the best thing for her now. "How about we all take a nap?" He offered, "Or you could take care of those two or go out with Emile or something if you aren't tired, I'm sure you'll find her somewhere" He said to Sima, "You're probably tired too though, so much excitement" He slightly laughed. Hotaru put her hands to her ears and he stopped. Obviously, she had a headache.
Hotaru soon passed out sleeping though, and she sure did sleep for a while. The woman that was in the room made the two kids sleep again if they got up, because they were tired too, but babies were babies, and got up even if they were supposed to be sleeping, but Hotaru needed to sleep.

Sima glared at Hotaru, a part of him wished she wouldn't be in this pain, but another part of him was glad that it happened. He hd two children instead of one; the more the merrier right? Well not for Hotaru atleast not during child birth. Sima felt it was best for him to sty at hr side so he pulled a chair up and slung it on the right side of the bed near Hotaru's head. "Yeah I'm a bit tired" Sima exclaimed with an exagerated yawn.
Sima wasn't as tired as he let off; he just wanted to be there and make sure she was safe. She did seem alight and all but he felt so bad thinking he was that caused her such pain. Sima's ears twitched at the sound of movement around the room; his eyes turned to the mayor. "You can go if you like; but I will spend the night with her" (It is night isn't it?)

The mayor headed out to stay with Emile in an inn in the village they were in, and Hotaru slept through the night. She woke up feeling much better and she sat up completely, looking over at the sleeping Sima. She grinned slightly, then licked his cheek and played with his ears, leaning her head on his shoulder with her face buried against his neck. Well, at least she was feeling better. She licked his neck in an effort to wake him up while playing with his hair, eager to name the two who were sleeping not that far away.
Once she managed to make him partly awake, she whispered in his ear "They're sleeping so be quiet" She sounded happier than she did the day before, and she licked his cheek again and laughed a little. She was obviously amused by him sleeping.

Sima tried his best; but as the hours passed h had found himself falling asleep his head barley resting on the bed turned to the right and his hair hanging down. Sima fell into a deep sleep easily but starting having an odd dream. His dream was about a cat; an odd cat that had just started licking him for the darnist reason. Sima reached for the cat attempting to pet it but not realizing that he was actually reaching for Hotaru.
"They're sleeping so be quiet" Sima. opened his eyes slowly rrealizing that Hotaru was licking him, and seemed much happier then before. At a loss of words, and feeling tired Sima slowly began to speak. "Ye... Yes?" Sima yawned doing his best to keep quiet as he re-set his position to something that would be easier to stay up.

Hotaru slightly laughed when he woke up and went back to sitting without licking his cheek. She waited a bit then looked over to him, "They don't have names" She was obviously excited to figure out what to name the two. She sat up a bit longer but then she laid back down, her stomach slightly hurt once again. "I feel fat." She pouted to Sima, "Hopefully I can run around a bit." she smiled to him, all this she was whispering very quietly, knowing that he could hear her because his ears were so good.
"So, did you think of anything?" She asked, whispering still and keeping her gaze on him so he didn't fall asleep. He had better get used to getting little sleep, because she wasn't going to wake up every single time one of them cried to put them back to sleep. If one of them cried, the other would surely wake up, and not be very happy. Boy, this was going to be tiring, to have two kids the same age.

Sima smiled to her; "Your not fat" Sima turned to look t the babies. They were both sleeping being very quiet. Sima = Hotaru = Sotaru? Sima wasn't the best with the names at all. "Umm Sotaru?" Sima whispere just loud enough for her to hear him speak. Sima looked at the female not being able to come up with anything for her lthough he didn't relly mke a name now did he?
