“I have never seen a pregnant being change their diet, I didn't know that was a thing.” Loki admitted before blinking a little. “I don’t think I have one of those.” he shrugged. “it doesn’t matter really.” he decided. “Shild has taken medical scans of me, speak to Phil, he can get you copies of my innards if you want them.” he promised beore flushing a little.<br/><br/>“I believe it’s because the baby is human and needs extra magic. It won’t hurt me, nor the baby. It’s a normal process. If I get too low on energy I can siphon some off of you and Steph. You already pour off enough of it you won’t even notice, I will ask first of course. It’s the height of rudeness to take someone’s energy without permission.” he explained, happily pouring himself a cup of tea. “not seven. Just four.” he admitted, looking down at his teacup. “I never got to raise any of them really…. Odin and Thor ripped them from me as soon as they where born. I never got to hug them or hold them.” he admitted. “but Odin cannot touch this baby, it is human, conceived on earth and will be born on earth. His own laws forbid him.” he looked so very smug. “I taught all of my five children in secrete, they know me… but it’s not the same as actually being able to be a mother.”<br/><br/>“sure?” Loki asked, confused as he stood up and raised his shirt so she could see his stomach, assuming she wanted to examine him and his pregnancy. “the human books would be wonderful. I don’t know the names for things, but I have been pregnant enough to be able to match what I go through with the books and see if there’s enough similarities.” he admitted, letting her do what she wanted. “I would like to try these prenatals. Most of my children where born small. Odin mocked that a runt will always beget a runt.” he snorted. “my oldest put laid to that quite quickly, given he grew so large he could encircle a city block.” he admitted.
