"Your inner being coming out to roost," Xyveris said as it entered the room, looking at her in the mirror from well above her shoulder.  "You have the genetics, I'm sure.  Otherwise this wouldn't be happening.  You may want to consider taking a nice, luxurious bath.  I can have one drawn for you if that's what you desire.  One, it will help with the pains your body is experiencing.  Two, it will help slough off more of the skin.  And third...who doesn't enjoy a nice hot bath on occasion?"<br/><br/>Xyveris was trying to be nice to her, obviously.  She was carrying its child, after all.  Couple that with the fact she had more breeding to do, well, it just felt that being nice would get more done than being indifferent.  "Come, Liz.  I shall have some food brought for you while you lounge in the tub.  Although tub isn't truly a word that encompasses what is used for those of us who are...larger than humans.  For it is more vast than that."  A smile lit its large face, revealing the frightening teeth it possessed.
