The Jevin Egg Disaster is the funniest thing I’ve read in a while! Let me ask, how is the Soup Group handling the situation? Mainly Gem seeing the other two with a hoard of tiny clones each

"Aw, but we should keep them! Look, they're still coming into their hooves! <3"

Jevin resists the urge, once more, to ask how Gem is making that noise with her mouth. In front of her, a tiny Pearl is stumbling. He... supposes the hatchling does somewhat resemble a baby deer in that regard? Stumbling through the grass, Gem occasionally gently propping them up again? Hooves is a strange word to use for whatever the alien moth feet Pearl has are, but...

...after Scar (and Zedaph, dear lord he's trying not to think about what Zedaph is probably doing), it's a little refreshing to know that someone is being slightly normal about this.

"We don't know where they came from. Besides, if every egg hatches, that's, uh. Cleo. We did the math," Jevin says.

"Three-hundred and twenty four," Cleo promptly responds.

"Right. That means there would be - I'm sorry, how many? Are you sure you did that right?"

"Oh, I'm sorry Jevin, which one of us had to teach math to children?"

"You were a science teacher?"

"Yeah, and it involved math."

"Okay, okay. Three hundred and..."

Gem is staring at them with wide eyes. Jevin thinks they're sparkling. Oh no.

"You mean," Gem starts slowly, "that there are over three hundred of these adorable little guys?"

"That's not a good thing, Gem," Jevin starts, slowly.

"Oh my god. I have to tell Pearl. This is fantastic!" Gem claps her hands. "So many little fawns! Awwww!"

"No, no Gem," says Cleo. "No."

"I'm going to give them all cute little sweaters and teach them how to swim!"

"All three-hundred and twenty four?"

"Of course. I'm not going to leave anyone out, you know!"

Jevin and Cleo look at each other.

"Right," Cleo says. "You have fun with that."
