Mysteries of Birth
The entire room fell silent, contemplating Aldrich's revelation.
V was the first one to break it with a cheery, "Well, now I know your birthday's coming up in, like two months. Just have to figure out how to surprise you."
Aldrich appreciated V's optimism. She had a pep about her that reminded him a bit of Adam, though less annoying compared to Adam. Not that he minded Adam, either. "It's not much of a surprise if you announce it, is it?"
"Guess you're right." V laughed before she nodded over to Mel and Beta. "So, let me voice what we're all thinking here, or 'calculating' as Mr. laser pointer dot does: was Aldrich's birth part of the Unraveling?
Or maybe even the cause?"
"Keep in mind we don't know much about the Unraveling," said Mel. "It was a mystery in our timeline, and it still is now."
