A little greentext, to provide some context to Anon's reaction to Kronii's pregnancy news:
>You open your eyelids, they feel awfully heavy.
>You look around rays of sunshine touching your skin.
>Why do you feel so strange.
>You try to turn your neck, it takes you great effort to do so, why?
>You get your answer when you look at the mirror in front of you.
>It's you.
>You're a disheveled husk of a human being, a barely sapient mass of wrinkled skin and brittle bone.
>Is that really you.
>"Oh anon, you have guests." You swing your head towards the voice, it's a woman wearing a nursing uniform.
>Her face is a blur, you can't register it at all.
>"Hey honey." Your dry old eyes widened.
>It's her.
>Kronii.
>She looks exactly the same, as youthful and beautiful as you first met her.
>Next to her is someone a little shorter, a splitting reflection of the woman you loved.
>"Hey dad. "She says while waving, both of them smiling, why did it feel so fake?
>They're so young, they'll outlive you.
>You will never be with them in any meaningful amount of time.
>You wake up completely drenched in sweat.
>Your chest heaving up and down in labored breaths.
>A nightmare.
>"Babe?" Kronii gets up groggily, wiping her face.
>"N-Nothing, just a dream. Go back to sleep." You control your breaths, your heartrate returning to normal.
>Kronii is too tired to notice how panicked you really are, she lies back down.
>She lazily guides your hand to her abdomen, you can feel the bump.
>Your heart rate picks up again.
>Alone.
>You don't want to leave the both of them alone.
