I'd like to speak to someone with medical experience as soon as possible, please. It's somewhat important in the 'oh god oh god oh god' sense of important.

You need to come back right now. I can't tell you this over the internet.

[False pregnancy virus to start us off! Look, it's tomorrow in Australia and I have surgery to do.]

How's Lance gonna handle you havin' another man--...wo-... another...'s baby?

[Lock - Video]

[unknownrival]

It's his.

[material_guy]

So you're gonna lie to him.

That's just about the worst kinda lie you can feed a guy, you know.

He knows the community. He'll understand it ain't your fault.

I haven't had sex with anyone else for ages - whose else could it be? Pregnancy takes some time to show.

A guy can't knock another guy up. It's the community's.

[unknownrival]

The community did not have sex with me.

[material_guy]

It just made a baby with you.

It's Diarmuid's and that's that.

Trying to trap him? A guy so obsessed with the idea of being loyal'll stick with you no matter how fucked up shit gets or how miserable it makes him. You don't gotta feed him a line like "It's yours."

[unknownrival]

I don't have motivations such as those. I merely want to state facts.

[material_guy]

It's a fact: guys don't get other guys pregnant no matter how much or how hard or how often they fuck 'em.

[Lock - Video]

[unknownrival]

It's a fact guys don't get pregnant at all.

[Lock - Video]

[material_guy]

It's a fact the community can fuck with "facts" and possibilities like that. He can't.

[Lock - Video]

[unknownrival]

Who's to say the community can't mess with the facts and still keep the genes he's providing?

[Lock - Video] Now hitting reply to the right comment.

[material_guy]

So yer just gonna assume it did with his 'cause it's convenient 'n call it a fact. Or what, you gonna add that you had his smut juice in you still for it to be workin' with when virus season kicked in? It's your sperm you guys're keeping on tap not his, right?

[It looks like he's going to snap back, but he takes in a breath and exhales.]

Greed.

Why do you care?

[material_guy]

Tellin' a guy he knocked someone up'll just stress him out, especially if he'll never have to deal with it anyway. Who'd be happy about that? How're you gonna feel when he ain't happy about it or if he's gotta fake like it ain't fucked up? It'll be easier on both of you if you just don't say a word to him 'n wait it out 'till it's gone.

I won't lie by omission. He's going to know what's happened.

[material_guy]

How the hell would any guy know another guy got knocked up?

Layer up, wonder if a virus's makin' you gain weight. It ain't a lie. That's all virus meat right there.

[unknownrival]

I am not going to hide things from him with misdirection.

[Lock - Video]

[material_guy]

But yer fine just forcing it on him like this's his fault?

[Lock - Video]

[unknownrival]

He'll be a better father than me.

What's that gotta do with anything?
