"It seems that parents are the same no matter what planet you come from," replied Daphne with a smile. She could not help but wonder what it would be like to be a Klingon boy coming to pick up his girlfriend and meeting dad for the first time. >"Do you everrr plan on having cubsss?" asked Tr'Lawsh. �"Orrr even want them?" "It has been something that I have always wanted, but I am getting older so I am not sure whether they are going to be a part in my life that they could be." (OOC: Daphne is in her lower 40's, though she tells everyone she is still 29 ;)!)
