[The video flicks on and shows Reno sat on his bed and Puss lying beside him, on towels, whining and purring loudly. For once, Reno doesn't look so laidback. He actually looks pretty worried.]
Um... is there anyone who knows how to deal with a cat giving birth? Like a vet or something?
[He winces at the pained noise Puss makes. Obviously this is not going well. Stroking down her back, he looks paler than usual. This is not something a Turk is trained for!]
Rude, can you come here? Like... quick? Since this girl is about to either tear my face off or have a heart attack.
[He cuts the feed off.]

I must suggest you find perhaps an old blanket for her to lay upon. This could be quite...messy.
[video]
Date: 2010-04-19 04:01 pm (UTC)[He gives Halim a half-concerned half-panicked look.]
Don't suppose they taught you how to handle animal birth when you were trainin' to be a Marquis, did they?
[video]
Date: 2010-04-19 04:15 pm (UTC)Old towels should suffice well enough, Reno. I cannot say I was raised amongst many animals, but after spending time within the stables on occasion, you learn a few things.
Although, it would be more convenient for Puss to be laying eggs than giving birth to live young. Prepare yourself, this is certainly not a show most gentlemen want to view.

Date: 2010-04-19 04:22 pm (UTC)[A grin, but it's not as confident as usual. He's worried about his kitty!
He watches as Puss whines and tries to sooth her, rubbing her back and side gently.]
[video]
Date: 2010-04-19 04:56 pm (UTC)[A little joke to lighten the mood. Halim could tell that the Turk was fretting now.]
Perhaps warm water will be needed to wash the kittens once they arrive into the world. As for Puss' agony, try to console her with some petting. The poor dear sounds absolutely dreadful now.

Date: 2010-04-19 05:23 pm (UTC)She's doing okay. I think she wants to like... eat my face or something but she should be alright...
[ video ]
Date: 2010-04-19 04:36 pm (UTC)You shouldn't need to do anything, though sometimes they do need a little help. I should perhaps warn you though, the delivering of every kitten could take awhile.

Date: 2010-04-19 04:40 pm (UTC)How long is 'a while', Tuesti? Do you know what I'm supposed to do if she gets stuck or something?

Date: 2010-04-20 08:12 am (UTC)[By now, there are two of them curled up by their mother, and a third is eased out by a towel and put down beside her.]
[video]
Date: 2010-04-19 05:16 pm (UTC)You've gotta pet her, Reno! Just talk nicely to her. Act like she's got a tummyache and rub her back.
[video]
Date: 2010-04-19 05:22 pm (UTC)[He grabs one of the other towels nearby, grimacing as he eases out the first kitten, relieved to hear it squeak and just setting it down by its mommy.
This is going to take forever...]
[video]
Date: 2010-04-19 05:54 pm (UTC)[Marlene watches in awe when the first kitten comes. It was like watching when Eiko's chocobo hatched.]
Oh wow...
[video]
Date: 2010-04-20 08:10 am (UTC)Good girl, Puss... [He strokes her head then looks at Marlene on the screen, tilting the camera to look at the kittens. They're pink-nosed and wrinkly and cute!]
[video]
Date: 2010-04-23 05:55 pm (UTC)[Marlene grins, intently watching.] You can do it, Puss!
[ video / action ]
Date: 2010-04-19 09:05 pm (UTC)[ He doesn't know anything about cats giving birth either, but that's not the point. Once he's made it to the room, he shuts the door and pulls his gloves -- and sunglasses -- off. ]
How is she?
[ action ]
Date: 2010-04-20 08:07 am (UTC)[He points at those tiny little pink things squirming by their mother.]
Reeve Tuesti said it can take hours but she's in real bad pain.
[ action ] o.o why are her kittens pink?
Date: 2010-04-20 09:58 pm (UTC)[ He carefully shifts so that he's next to Reno, watching the cat. He has a feeling she'll definitely try and take his hand off, so he doesn't move to touch her. ]
She'll be okay. She's tough.
[ action ] That should say pink-nosed. That's what I get for tagging at weird times. :|
Date: 2010-04-22 10:50 am (UTC)I feel useless. [Reno doesn't like feeling useless.]
[ action ] loool okay, makes more sense now XD
Date: 2010-04-22 07:12 pm (UTC)[ Rude reaches over to squeeze Reno's shoulder slightly. ]
You're here for her.

Date: 2010-04-22 10:53 am (UTC)Yeah... I didn't know she was a girl.
[video]
Date: 2010-04-23 01:52 am (UTC)Bearing a child would make it female.
