- Seto was still bored, looking at everything with disinterest. After all, the baby kicking had gotten from amazing to novel to boring to annoying already.
- Noting his disinterest, Theoris reached over and nudged him, harder than she should have--on the side. For crying out loud, it was their child! She would have said something, except at that moment the doctor cut her off. "The child is female."
- Seto's eyes went wide as he addressed the doctor, and Theoris could almost see the camera zooming out and leaving him standing alone in empty void. "What's this? A female? You mean I have... a daughter?!"
- "That's right, Mr. Kaiba. You're going to be the father to a little girl." Theoris bit her lip, resisting the urge to declare "Called it."
- Seto was in a widened stance, eyes wide, and yes, a dramatic wind had come up as he made a slow descent to his knees. "Not a son?"
- "A Daugh--"
- "Are you done being a drama queen yet?"
- "I can't have a few more minutes of it?" Seto asked, moving to where he held his head in his hands but not quite making that pose yet.
- Theoris simply waved at him in resignation, as if to say she was done with that; it might as well been granting him permission to continue.
- The doctor had to put up with the occasional "How... how can it be?!" and "It's not possible!" through the rest of the visit.
- Theoris heaved a sigh and made an appointment for two months later before leading Seto out of the clinic and into the limousine. "You can cut it out now."
- "Don't make light of this." Seto told her.
- "I'm not making light of it." He was starting to get on her nerves...
- "You know what this means don't you?" Seto said, still in his melodramatic tone.
- "What does it mean, Seto Kaiba?" Theoris asked, still in her tired-of-his-melodrama-yet-resigned-to-it tone.
- "I'm going to have to paint the nursery pink!"
