"Knock, knock!"
"'ey, Jules," drawls Andrea.
"Nurse said you three were /finally up for visitors?"
"Sure ... c'mon in. They're sleeping just now."
Juliet tiptoes over, breathes, "They're so cuuuuute!"
"Yeeaaaa," agrees Andrea.
Juliet cocks her head. "Ray?"
"Yea?"
"Someone's pointed out the obvious already, right?"
"Wha?"
"Thing One is adorable, pink, and blond, while Thing Two is adorable, brown, and black-haired."
Andrea blushes. "Umm, yea?"
"Does that mean what I think it means?"
"Heteropaternal superfecundation?"
Juliet blinks.
Andrea grows increasingly pink, trying to contain an impish smile.
"Not [/exactly] the words I [was thinking], but I'm pretty sure [they mean] the same thing." Grins. "I win the pool!" She pats Andrea's tummy. "You're the bestest [uterus] /ever! I'm treating your person to a fancy dinner for this!"
Andrea giggles.

"Answer me this," says Juliet, somewhat contorted between the side of the bed and Andrea. "Did you have sex with Jason and then Lachlan, Lachlan then Jason, or both at the same time, and if so, who was in the front and who was in the back?"
"/Jules!"
"Wha? I'm curious."
Andrea looks away, ears and cheeks pink. "Any or all of the above."
"You don't remember such a momentous occasion?"
"Takes a couple days for things to get where they're going," Andrea mumbles.
Juliet grins. "I'm teasing, Ray." Kisses Andrea's stomach, throws an arm over and hugs her middle. "Thank you for winning me so much money and giving me such cute niblings!!!"
