Summary
The coin clicks on.
"Fuck. Lup, I fucked up. Gods. How could this happen - Jesus. I - the DNA - I guess I - I created a new body with the clone pod, not my own. I thought I'd - shit. Lup, I'm so sorry."
There's silence, for a minute, as though the voice can't even begin to explain.
Then, a baby's crying echoes from the coin.
"Fuck," the voice says, once more. "Guess I'll have to explain later."Series

Summary
Lup watches as the body – her body – floats gently in the tank, curled up in the foetal position, obscured by the green liquid but unmistakeably her. Her hair drifts, splayed from her head like a halo. As she watches, the body twitches.
It’s weird seeing herself from the outside, but damn, she’d forgotten how good she looks.
“Mommy!” Ellie shouts, and she turns to see Barry enter, Ellie running a little ahead of him in a blue dress. She’d forbidden Barry from buying her jeans, but she’d been willing to compromise on the colour. It’s covered in mud already, somehow, even though she hasn’t been outside yet. The perks of having a toddler.

Taako and Kravitz babysit.
Lup, (the letter says.) Does your baby like chilis? Or is she uncool? I guess Barold raised her for three years, so she probably doesn’t, right? No sweat, she’ll be slurping down ghost peppers for breakfast by the time you guys get back. Just call me babysitter supreme.

Summary
"It’s rich to talk about terrible genes when you’re just a bad version of me,” Lup says. “You didn’t get the gene of trans your gender or anything.”
“My genes are perfect. I’m not the one with a baby that needs glasses. Lup, do you realise how dorky my niece is gonna look? With the baby goggles? You’ve ruined her.” Taako sounds genuinely devastated.Series
