Eli would be both curious and concerned. As someone who also has a connection to the spirit world, he would be interested in how the pregnancy might affect Melinda's abilities and the baby's connection to the other side. He might offer his own insights and help Melinda research any similar cases in the history of the spirit world that he can find in his books or records, all while being a good friend and offering emotional support.
Jim, her husband, would be extremely worried. He would immediately rush to her side, using his medical knowledge to assess her injuries. He would be determined to protect her and keep her safe while she recovers, perhaps even getting a bit overprotective.
Annabeth's friends would have a wide range of reactions. Percy would be a mix of joy and concern. He'd start making plans for the future of their family while also preparing to defend them against any threats. Her friends from the Athena cabin might be very methodical in their approach, helping her plan for the baby's education and future role in the camp. Meanwhile, some of the more impulsive friends might be a bit too over - eager, like suggesting crazy names or trying to throw an early baby shower without really thinking things through.
One plot idea could be that Melinda's pregnancy gives her new abilities to communicate with spirits related to unborn children or the spirits of mothers who died during childbirth. This could add a new layer to her usual ghost - whispering duties.
Her friends would likely be very protective. They might form a sort of guard around her, making sure she's safe at all times. Some of them would probably be excited about the new life coming into the world and start preparing things like a nursery or gathering supplies for the baby.
Her friends would likely be very protective. Finnick, for example, would probably be extremely vigilant, using all his charm and skills to keep her safe. He might also be a source of emotional support, having been through so much himself in the Hunger Games. Katniss and Peeta could offer practical help, like finding a safe place for Annie to stay during her pregnancy, as they understand the importance of protecting the vulnerable in their world.
There could be a friend who is also secretly jealous of all the attention Alex is getting because of the pregnancy. This could cause some tension in their friendship as the jealous friend might start to act out or be less supportive than expected.
Some of her friends might be overjoyed and immediately start planning baby showers and buying cute baby gifts.
Her friends' reactions would be mixed. One of them might be overly excited, seeing it as a new beginning and a chance to reform their group into something more positive. They could start making plans for a nursery or how to support Rocky financially. However, another friend could be in denial. They might act as if the pregnancy doesn't exist and keep pushing Rocky to participate in their illegal activities as usual. And yet another friend could be fearful. They might be afraid that Rocky's pregnancy will attract unwanted attention from the law or other dangerous elements in their world, putting all of them at risk.
Natsu would probably be really excited at first. He'd be all over the place, asking a million questions and making sure Lucy is okay. Happy would be right there with him, trying to help in his own little Exceed way. Erza would be very protective. She'd make sure Lucy follows all the proper precautions and would offer to train her gently so she doesn't lose her fighting edge during pregnancy. Gray might be a bit awkward at first but would soon warm up and offer his support, like helping with any heavy lifting around Lucy's place.
Naruto would probably be super excited and offer all kinds of help. He might bring over some of Hinata's home - cooked meals for Ino. Sakura would be very practical, offering her medical expertise and making sure Ino is having regular check - ups. Shikamaru would be more laid - back but still offer some sage advice about the responsibilities of parenthood.
