We may have a secondary medical issue with the solar flares. We have at current count four incidents of unexplained pregnancies. On Helion Uslov, they have three, at current count. Obviously, it could be coincidental, but...a few of the pregnancies are....not very explainable. And potentially improbable.

How improbable is improbable?

And we need to provide options to everyone involved.

Two pregnancies with with people who haven't had sex, one pregnancy where both parties are male and I honestly can't explain the last one.

Options?

This is how religions start.

Options, as in this can't be a welcome surprise for all involved? And when you say male you're not meaning the artificial wombs Harry talks about, are you?

And how do we know the other parent? Wouldn't it be too early to know?

Or cults!

No one seems that displeased by it. Though I can't say that's not because we have already met the children. And no, I don't mean that.

Apparently we do, and apparently it would not. Though, I'm not sure what to chalk that up to. Magic, solarflares or some other phenomenon.

Can you imagine? Major parts of human history explained by solar flares.

As long as these are both the children in question, and the parents are all right with it, but between us, that sounds like a not-so-fun way to conceive. Are you able to tell me who's involved or is that still confidential?

Everyone knows my feelings on magic, so I'll remain cautiously optimistic.

Didn't an angel appear to Mary in a pillar of light? I'll admit, I'm behind on my bible.

I think I should wait until they announce it, but if they don't soon it'll probably be in the best interests of everyone if you're looped into the confidentiality.

I think we've solved one of Earth's greatest mysteries.

They'll need to be closely monitored, and if it's possible to confirm the babies are who we expect them to be, even better.

And how does a man carry a child?

Well, we have that going for us at least, don't we?

Agreed.

With a lot of difficulty, I'd imagine. Honestly, I'm wondering if we might end up wanting to utilize one of those artificial wombs you mentioned.

I doubt it would be greeted with great rejoicing.

There's just not the system in place and I can't imagine he could carry the baby to term. There's not much time before viability would be impossible.

Not unless the solarflare did some massive rearrangement, which I can't see. Maybe it has something to do with the patient's magic? Honestly, it's times like this I'm glad I'm training a witch to be a doctor.

...all right, I'm going to loop you into confidentiality on this one, seeing as how we may need to talk to him about some very specific options I'm not entirely sure how they work. The patient is Caleb Danvers.

Did you contact Harry, to see if the artificial womb's ready? Or I can contact Harry, and you call Caleb. It'll be a lot to process but he'll need all the information to make a decision.

I won't loop Harry in, in case I can take care of the technical to keep everything quiet.

All right.

Honestly, based on the scans, it reads like a fairly, standard healthy pregnancy. I'm tempted to assign it to Chuck, though, as I'm very much not versed in magic.

We need to do some scans to understand the biology. It would make him easier to treat.

I can do that.

I'm accustomed to alternative biologies but I won't involve myself unless Caleb wants it, but I'm always available as a second set of eyes.

Also, I need to ask a favour, beyond checking all my injuries.

I'll make sure he knows.

What's that?

Thank you.

I want a pregnancy test. I want to be sure I'm not among those affected. Alice Rose made no mention of the flare, so if I am, it's not her, and I wouldn't know who the secondary parent is.

Sure, come down to the clinic. I can run a blood test and a scan.

I don't think I am, but it would be too early to know, but I guess there's no such thing as too early with these new pregnancies.

I'll hobble to the clinic in the morning. For privacy reasons, Daisy won't be with me for once.

Fair enough.

We also need to study how people inside the bunkers wound up affected.

One last question: do you have anything that would help bones heal faster?

Actually, yeah. We can order a supplement from the apothecary that makes them heal faster.

That is a relief. I'm asking for someone who is so bloody stubborn, that they won't ask for themselves.

It would also help my skull. I'm tired of being all headaches and tiredness.

I'll make sure to have some with me when you get here, then.

If the headaches keep on, you might want to consider having Wyatt have a look at you.
