"...okay, different topic then.  How'd the examination go?  Kid doing okay?  I promised Archie I'd help you, so that's what I'm going to do."

Unfortunately, it was all but inevitable that he'd ask this again since it's the topic of the day for Kyubi...he's ready to help support her if things start spiraling downward, though, so hopefully that should keep things relatively under control.

About a minute passed in silence after you leveled the latest round of question at Kyubi, her expression neutral as she thought about the issue, until she gave you a tired yet touched smile as answered in soft tones:

"....The examinations went very well, Master. Mr. Mime and the doctor said my child is in perfect health, and I should be expecting to lay the Egg on schedule. They also said it should be fine for me to battle and do.....heavy activity without harming my child so long as I pace myself, so I don't have to stay copped up in our room and can travel around with you. You've.....you've done more than enough for me, my love, so the only thing I want is to be by your side again tomorrow. I....hated being without you all day Master, even though I understand why it had to be that way, so please....can I?"

Reiner's Bullshit Detector: Insight (3) + Survival (3) + Empathy (*5) - Implicit Trust (3) = 8D6 Dice; Need 4 Successes to detect she's lying
(1)(6)(4)(2)(1)(2)(1)(2) 1 Success

You (Reiner) completely hold her words to be absolutely true, and have very little reason to suspect she's trying to hide anything from you, especially since she has never lied or omitted any details from you prior to this moment (that you passed the Roll for, anyway). Before you could think to ask anymore questions along the same lines, she asks one herself with a scrunched up and somewhat puzzled expression, as if the topic made her uncomfortable.

"Master.......you never did tell me about this......Taylor. She sounds like...an important person to you, and that she gave you.....grief, so could you tell me about her? I want to help you however I can, and that means sharing your burdens too If you let me my love....."

Welp. This is getting interesting, in the Chinese sense of the phrases.

*Rolls*

Weavile stays put in his Pokeball......for now.
