"So…This is not your and your familiar's baby?" Lexi asked doubtfully.
"Setting aside whether it's biologically possible, it's inappropriate to engage in such a relationship with my familiar. The power imbalance and background and so on make it wrong. Yanael, Alzara, and Soara are special, but familiars are familiars. Imagine if Nessa here took an interest in her centipede. She'd be thrown in a loony bin at once."
Lexi raised an eyebrow.
"Your standards are so weird, Zach. Aren't you a guy? Just stick it in whatever hole you can find. Isn't that how it's done?"
"I am not talking about this with you, Lexi! Now, what did you come here for?!"
Lexi looked at Zach, Alzara, and the baby again.
"Are you sure it's not yours? It's similar to both you and Alzara. It even looks a little like you when you were little." Her doubts had yet to settle.
"All babies look the same." Zach wanted to be done with this topic, but Lexi wouldn't let go.
