xVerity: Nah?

KnotMyProblem: You act all prim and proper, but we all saw you at Gwynn’s wedding, xV. You’re a horndog. Calling it now: you’re gonna knock that sweet omega of yours up all over again

xVerity: It’s unlikely.

KnotMyProblem: Fifty bucks on it happening

Gwynning: It’s been a while since we’ve had a Single Dad Betting Pool

xVerity: I’ll take that bet.

GlitterDoctor: Looks like Knot doesn’t need to worry about interdimensional visitors stealing his money. With bets like these, he’ll have lost it all by next year anyway

KnotMyProblem: ouch

Gwynning: My money’s on no baby

GlitterDoctor: Same

TeenDad2: idk you guys… xV is such a sweet dad

xVerity: I can more than reasonably assure you that no babies will be conceived this year between myself and Mal.

KnotMyProblem: Kinky

TeenDad2: OMG Knot! Stop!! He didn’t mean it that way!

xVerity: Knot, I’m a reproductive endocrinologist—helping other people conceive is my job. But as far as Mal and I go, no new babies are on the horizon. We’ve considered trying again, but the toll it would take on both of us just isn’t worth the attempt.

KnotMyProblem: My fifty bucks says otherwise

KnotMyProblem: Also… is that the first time you’ve told us what you do?

xVerity: Maybe.

KnotMyProblem: “reproductive endocrinologist,” huh?

KnotMyProblem: Sounds like doctor speak for a SEX DOCTOR, YOU HORNDOG

GlitterDoctor: I mean, at least half that statement is true

xVerity: The erroneous half is everything following the comma. Reproductive endocrinology is the antithesis to being a horndog. I introduce spermatozoa to ovum harvested from patients outside the body, then laparoscopically reintroduce the zygotes into the fallopian tubes. Amongst other things.

GlitterDoctor: MANY other things. The man works hard

KnotMyProblem: You know what they say… work hard, play hard. How do you play hard? Well… you’re all dads. I don’t have to tell you

TeenDad2: OMG

KnotMyProblem: I’m sticking to my guns

xVerity: Excellent. That means I’ll be fifty dollars richer this time next year. Moving on: what about you, Gwynn?

Gwynning: we’ve hit max capacity in the Gwynn household. I wasn’t kidding before when I said Alex warned me that if I got him pregnant again, he’d take up painting with blood

Gwynning: Otherwise, we’re hoping to strike a good work/life balance in the new year

GlitterDoctor: Same
