My water just broke.

I'm in the garden.

Would it be morally acceptable to tell them to bugger off? No, no, best not. All right, I'll see what I can do.

[alt_lupin]

It's on its way, mate. I'll be with you in a few minutes.

[alt_frank]

okay.

[alt_poppy]

Goodness, Remus. I've no idea what you thought.

Just bring the twine, and I'll show you. We'll use it to make a bracelet that will monitor the baby's heart rate, and Alice's, too. And Frank's, if necessary.

[alt_lupin]

I think it's probably making the tea - having to stop and take a few minutes to be calm and do something logical and sensible. Always seems to help me, anyway.

[alt_sirius]

Course, I hear you.

Like rolling a spliff.

[alt_lupin]

Probably best you never know.

I think I may need one of those heart monitors too. And a lie down in a darkened room with a damp cloth over my eyes. Honestly, Poppy, I don't know how you cope with this sort of pressure.

[alt_lupin]

I've changed my mind. I'm exceptionally glad you're not here.

[alt_poppy]

Pressure?

There's been hardly a thing to do in this case. Alice has it all well in hand.

Er, ooops! Here we go!

[alt_lupin]

Oh good god!!

[alt_arthur]

Bring him the entire bottle, once it's all over.

[alt_poppy]

I brought a good supply with me. Just in case the stock here was getting low.

All's well, Arthur! The boy is perfect. Has all his fingers and toes and a fine set of lungs.
