Spoiler for Pleasant Dinner Conversation:
It was a nice, expensive dining establishment, a place they had gathered to eat at often, on Earth. And a special quiet private booth in the back so as to allow them to talk about matters that sometimes didn't include Earth, without people nearby overhearing.
Plus, it helped that Arisa and Suzuka were incredibly rich.
"Hey you, two!" Hayate greeted, as she was shown to the table. Arisa and Suzuka were already there. She took a seat in the semi-circle booth next to Suzuka, her first real friend outside of the Wolkenritter.
"Hayate!" Suzuka nearly squealed, hugging the girl. "It's so good to see you! It's been, what, a year since we saw you last?"
The other girl blushed. "I-I think so. I'm so sorry, but things can get quite busy in the TSAB."
Arisa smiled. "Don't worry about it. You didn't come with Nanoha and Fate? Do you know if they were going to make it?"
"They should," Hayate replied, nodding. "I think they were planning to detour to drop off Vivio at the Infinity Library so Yuuno could watch her."
"Aw, I was kinda hoping to see her again," Suzuka replied, remembering when Nanoha and Fate brought her for a visit last time.
Arisa fiddled with her tea cup. "So, um, are Nanoha and Fate really still living together?"
When Hayate nodded again, Suzuka said, "I never really figured that Nanoha swung that way. I mean, she certainly didn't show any signs."
"I know what you mean," Arisa agreed. "She didn't really show interest in boys, but then again, she didn't seem to show that kind of interest in girls, either. And Fate, well, I couldn't really read her."
"Did I hear my name?" came a familar soft voice.
"Fate!" Arisa greeted, blushing a bit as the newcomer slid in next to her. "I'm sorry, we were just talking about you. Where's Nanoha?"
"Oh, I'm sorry," Fate apologized. "She'll be coming by in a bit. We were running a bit late, and she told me to go ahead. She'll catch up after she drops Vivio off."
The table quieted down for a moment, as the girls looked over the menu. Then Suzuka said, "So, how are things with Vivio? Are you two enjoying raising a daughter?"
Fate beamed. "It's very nice. I never did get to spend much time with Erio or Caro."
"Are you two considering having another child, like maybe a boy?" Hayate ventured.
"I'm not sure," Fate replied. "There aren't really much in the way of mid-childian children to adopt."
"How about possibly giving birth to one?" Arisa inquired. "I so want to be a mother someday..." Her eyes wavered a bit in her daydream.
"Um, didn't your mom tell you about, um, pregnancy?" Arisa asked nervously.
Fate shook her head. "I'm afraid I don't know what you're talking about. She never mentioned that."
A strange thought struck Suzuka. "You do know where babies come from, right?"
Fate smiled. "Of course! Don't be silly."
Arisa sighed while Suzuka and Hayate took a drink from their tea cups and looked at each other.
"They are cloned," she continued.
Arisa's eyes widened in shock as the other two wiped their faces from the tea they sprayed on each other.
"Are you two okay?" Fate asked.
"Fine, Fine, heh heh," Hayate assured her.
"Well, I was cloned, and Erio was cloned, and the cyborgs were cloned," Nanoha listed off. "I think Scaglietti was cloned, too. But the report said the council just created him, so I don't know."
"So you don't, um, with Nanoha..." Arisa started, wondering how to delicately phrase it.
Fate looked confused. "Don't what?"
Suzuka tried to keep her shaky hand still as she tried for more tea.
"..don't, um, you know, together at night, in the same bed..." Arisa continued, then trailed off.
"Sleep?" Fate offered. "Most of the time, when we're both home. We also watch TV together in bed sometimes, too."
Hayate managed to duck this time as Suzuka sprayed again.
"Suzuka?" Fate questioned. "Are you feeling alright?"
"I-I, uh, think I need to use the restroom real quick," Suzuka stammered out.
Fate stood up as well. "Really? I'll join you. I really rushed over here so I haven't had the chance."
The two girls left, and Hayate sat back down. "Wow."
Arisa nodded. "I know. It almost makes a weird kind of sense. From what I know of Precia, and Fate's childhood, she may have never been taught. And they didn't cover sex education when Fate was in our school."
"But what about Nanoha?" Hayate asked. "Surely she had some sex education."
A deep dread struck Arisa. "Um..."
Hayate froze. "What?"
"Well, the thing is," Arisa began nervously, "with Nanoha having to go off for TSAB trips and assignments so often, I had to take her notes, and I was kinda embarrassed at the time with the subject and I thought she already knew and it was a small part of the health course which she passed..."
There was dead silence again for a few minutes, then Hayate stated, "So you're telling me.. Nanoha might not know, EITHER!?"
"Might not know what?" Nanoha asked as she arrived, smiling.
"Oh, N-Nanoha, h-how good to see you!" Arisa managed, feeling her nerves becoming as frayed as Suzuka's.
The pony-tailed girl sat down next to Arisa. "It's good to see you, too! Are you feeling okay? You seem nervous."
Arisa laughed... nervously. "H-heh, I'm fine!" Her mouth was feeling dry by now, and the tea looked so inviting...
"Where are Suzuka and Fate?" Nanoha asked.
"In the restroom," Hayate replied, then asked to forestall the question. "And we were just talking about you not knowing if Fate or you wanted another child?"
Nanoha opened up her menu. "Well, I actually talked about it with Fate one night in bed that a boy might be nice, but we realized there weren't currently any other children for adoption on Mid-Childa and... Arisa? Is the tea that bad?"
"N-no, I just had a hiccup or something," Arisa replied, wiping her lips and chin, and then the table.
Hayate took a deep breath. "Nanoha... this might be a strange question, but... you do know where babies come from, right?"
Nanoha didn't raise her face from the menu. "Of course I know where babies come from; Fate explained it to me."
*whump*
"Suzuka, are you okay?" Fate's voice came from around the corner. "Let me help you up."
"I'm fine, really!" Suzuka replied, as the two girls came around the corner and sat down.
"I see your group is all here," the waitress noted as she came up. "Are you all ready to order?"
"YES!" came the shout from three girls.
Nanoha and Fate just looked at each other in confusion.
---------------------
Bonus Ending:
"No, of course I don't believe that all babies come from cloning," Yuuno told her. "I mean, some do, obviously."
Hayate sighed in relief. "That's good. Because I think you'll need to explain it to Nanoha, and I can't do it, and I fear for Vivio."
He nodded nonchalantly and returned to his book. "Sure, I'll explain it to her the same way the Scrya clan did to me. A mini-griffin brings them wrapped in a cloth."
*whump!*
Yuuno looked up. "Hayate...?"
-----------------------
Alternate Ending:
"Well that was a good meal," Nanoha said, satisfied, as the two headed back to their car.
Fate nodded. "It was, although those three girls seemed a bit strange today."
"Did you keep them confused as per the plan?"
Fate nodded, and the two high-fived each other.
I really need to get back to real writing, now that I got this out of my head...
That was lovely, I haven't giggled like that in a long time.

Fate nodded. "It was, although those three girls seemed a bit strange today."
"Did you keep them confused as per the plan?"
Fate nodded, and the two high-fived each other.
I really need to get back to real writing, now that I got this out of my head...
HA! XD That was great!

My fics Due to certain things, I am not here, find me over on TFF.
I have to add this in as well. You re-wrote the entire thing just about to match almost everything I commented on. Even though I think the fic is much better, always remember to be true to yourself. A lot of readers will make comments, but each comment and suggestion is just their opinion. Its good to take them for what they are and incorporate the ones you like, but always remember that if you don't like what was suggested, don't change it. Your fics are yours, and you have the final say on what is released.
Don't worry, I'm always true to myself. I thought about your comments and decided you were right. Thus I changed accordingly.
In the same manner, I agree with the tweaks you've just suggested, so I'll make those later. I'll make Yuuno's declaration less blunt, and maybe tone down Vivio's reaction slightly.

Spoiler for A/N:
I totally had to google, "How to make tea". orz
For a part that took so long to write it isn't very long, or in depth, or fancy. Actually that month was spent primarily on those opening 4 paragraphs because that's all I could get down for the longest time.
The Nove/Wendi scene at the end was completely different originally, but I scrapped that scene (saved it for later) and replaced it with some lulz. Poor poor Nove, girl had to knock her self out to get away from it all while Wendi plays innocent fanservice girl (or not so innocent hmm :3)
I know it's normal to feel worn out after awhile, but I still feel like I'm letting people down. But at the same time, I know it isn't right if I force myself to try and write something and it turns out horribly because my heart isn't in it.
Thank you all again for your support.
*Massive bear hug*

Fate hesitated, blinking at the innocent eyes gazing at her. "Okay." Nanoha held out her arms and wrapped them around Fate's neck when the blonde shifted to slide hers under Nanoha's body. With ease, Fate lifted her up and stood, walking around the coffee table to avoid the girl's wheelchair. 'But Hayate told me...'
Nanoha leaned against Fate briefly before wrinkling her nose and pulling back. "Ew, you stink."
"I didn't have time to shower after my session with Signum," the blonde mused lightly. "I was hoping you would let me take a shower, as well as borrow some clothes until I can buy some for myself?"
"Sure, I don't mind." Nanoha felt herself being sat on the bed and she placed her arms behind herself to prop up. "Should I tell you where I keep my clothes?"
"Well, considering we split our drawers and closet and agreed on where to place them, I'm not sure. But then again, you kept the other stuff in that drawer, so I'm assuming nightgowns in here." Fate opened the top drawer of the nightstand and pulled out a pink button up. "I don't suppose you took interest in nighties did you?"
"They reveal too much." Nanoha replied simply.
"But you like showing off." She got a curious look and a blush. "Ah, you see, the Nanoha I know always... flashes..."
"I flash people!?"
"Not that much! Just like... short skirts and stuff..." Fate scratched her cheek. "It really makes me frantic... you told me you do it just to see me blush most of the time."
"...Most?"
Fate looked away. "Sure you're not uncomfortable?"
Picking up on the shy tone, Nanoha leaned forward with a grin and looped her hands under her knees to pull them up so her feet were on the bed and so she could rest her chin on her knees while holding them. "Is that why you got so upset about Lexus talking to me like that?"
"...Yeah, I'm.. just really protective... not really the best thing in the world when courting an exhibitionist." Fate flushed and shook her head. "I shouldn't-"
"Tell me more." Nanoha's words made Fate look back at her with a shocked expression. The girl on the bed simply smiled, eyes not wavering. "We're close enough to have sex, right? What is it like? What am I like?"
"Y-you're..." Fate stammered, closing the drawer and opening the one under it, getting a pair of sweatpants. "Its... I dunno... just..."
"You're really shy, aren't you?"
"...Yes, please don't tease me like this."
"Isn't that what I'm supposed to do?" Nanoha giggled to herself. 'No wonder my other self does that, she looks so adorable when she's stammering.' After letting the girl frantically try to think of something to say for a few moments, Nanoha continued. "So... Fate-chan?"
"Y-yes...?"
"If I wore a short skirt tomorrow... would you protect me?" Resting her cheek on her knee now, Nanoha simply looked up at the girl for an answer.
"D-don't say silly things." Fate finished raiding the drawer for clothes and made her way to the bathroom and the connected shower. "I'll be out in a bit, okay?"
"I'll be waiting." Nanoha watched her new friend close the bathroom door with a smile on her lips. 'How interesting...' Reaching over to Fate's discarded enforcer outfit, she placed it over her shoulders to get a little warmth. "Raising Heart, can you turn up the temperature two degrees?" The orb on her wheelchair flashed and confirmed the action. "Hmmm..." The though was vocalized as the sounds of the shower sprang to life behind her. 'She's such a cute girl, and very possessive.'
Closing her eyes, Nanoha allowed herself to fall to the side, plopping down on the bed while still hugging her knees. 'The other me is so brave... but then again, if it meant having someone honestly get flustered over me then...' An honest smile came to her lips. 'Someone getting protective because I belong to them... Wanting nobody else to see what is theirs.' A giddy laugh came from her as she thought about it. 'I'd love to see that. Just hearing her say that to Lexus today made me feel warm... And her claiming me as her wife...'
Rolling onto her back, Nanoha looked up at the ceiling with her arms spread out. 'I've always wanted someone to do that for me. To honestly be interested in me, to ask me how my day was all the time and not get bored of hearing the same stories...' Looking up at the white ceiling, Nanoha listened to the sounds of water hitting the shower floor. 'Fate-chan knows everything about me, even my most embarrassing things. She's seen me naked, made love to me, and still smiles that way whenever my name is mentioned.'
Letting her head fall to the side, Nanoha looked at her nightstand. 'I've waned to have this feeling for as long as I can remember... To be gazed at with love and acceptance... To be told I mean the most in their life.' Pushing herself up, she scooted so she could move her legs off the bed and sit by her drawer, opening it up and rooting around until she found a see-through white bra. 'If I put this on... would she look at me like that?' She ran the lacy fabric over between her thumb and forefinger. 'For some reason, I feel shy... like her seeing my body would make me really embarrassed... Is that what its like when wanting someone else to see you like that? This feeling... of excitement and happiness?'
Looking at the undergarment for a while longer, Nanoha shook her head and put it back into the drawer. 'I can't... My heart is beating so fast.' Holding her hands together over her chest, she stared at the floor with a dark blush. 'I want her to see me in it but... I don't. I'm scared she may not find me attractive... but I know she does! It's not fair, she knows me inside and out but know so little about her!'
Nanoha frowned and laid back on the bed once more. 'I want to know her more...I want to understand her like she does me... I want... I want her to refer to ME when she speaks my name.' A firm nod came at the thoughts. 'I was sent an angel out of no where, and I don't want to let this opportunity pass.' Gripping the enforcer jacket that fell off her shoulders, she moved it to become a makeshift blanket over her. 'She was sent here for a reason...I want that reason to be me.' Hugging herself, Nanoha closed her eyes happily as the water cut off from the bathroom. 'This is the feeling I've longer for, for so long.'
this part dedicated to RadiantBeam, also :3
Poor Fate....she's going to have to choose between cheating on Nanoha for Alt!Nanoha, or letting Alt!Nanoha feel sad and lonely....
I also support Alt!Nanoha and Fate . Nanoha can hook up with Yuuno! (not normally my cup of tea, but that way ferret-boy gets some love too! )

Spoiler for Pleasant Dinner Conversation:
It was a nice, expensive dining establishment, a place they had gathered to eat at often, on Earth. And a special quiet private booth in the back so as to allow them to talk about matters that sometimes didn't include Earth, without people nearby overhearing.
Plus, it helped that Arisa and Suzuka were incredibly rich.
"Hey you, two!" Hayate greeted, as she was shown to the table. Arisa and Suzuka were already there. She took a seat in the semi-circle booth next to Suzuka, her first real friend outside of the Wolkenritter.
"Hayate!" Suzuka nearly squealed, hugging the girl. "It's so good to see you! It's been, what, a year since we saw you last?"
The other girl blushed. "I-I think so. I'm so sorry, but things can get quite busy in the TSAB."
Arisa smiled. "Don't worry about it. You didn't come with Nanoha and Fate? Do you know if they were going to make it?"
"They should," Hayate replied, nodding. "I think they were planning to detour to drop off Vivio at the Infinity Library so Yuuno could watch her."
"Aw, I was kinda hoping to see her again," Suzuka replied, remembering when Nanoha and Fate brought her for a visit last time.
Arisa fiddled with her tea cup. "So, um, are Nanoha and Fate really still living together?"
When Hayate nodded again, Suzuka said, "I never really figured that Nanoha swung that way. I mean, she certainly didn't show any signs."
"I know what you mean," Arisa agreed. "She didn't really show interest in boys, but then again, she didn't seem to show that kind of interest in girls, either. And Fate, well, I couldn't really read her."
"Did I hear my name?" came a familar soft voice.
"Fate!" Arisa greeted, blushing a bit as the newcomer slid in next to her. "I'm sorry, we were just talking about you. Where's Nanoha?"
"Oh, I'm sorry," Fate apologized. "She'll be coming by in a bit. We were running a bit late, and she told me to go ahead. She'll catch up after she drops Vivio off."
The table quieted down for a moment, as the girls looked over the menu. Then Suzuka said, "So, how are things with Vivio? Are you two enjoying raising a daughter?"
Fate beamed. "It's very nice. I never did get to spend much time with Erio or Caro."
"Are you two considering having another child, like maybe a boy?" Hayate ventured.
"I'm not sure," Fate replied. "There aren't really much in the way of mid-childian children to adopt."
"How about possibly giving birth to one?" Arisa inquired. "I so want to be a mother someday..." Her eyes wavered a bit in her daydream.
"Um, didn't your mom tell you about, um, pregnancy?" Arisa asked nervously.
Fate shook her head. "I'm afraid I don't know what you're talking about. She never mentioned that."
A strange thought struck Suzuka. "You do know where babies come from, right?"
Fate smiled. "Of course! Don't be silly."
Arisa sighed while Suzuka and Hayate took a drink from their tea cups and looked at each other.
"They are cloned," she continued.
Arisa's eyes widened in shock as the other two wiped their faces from the tea they sprayed on each other.
"Are you two okay?" Fate asked.
"Fine, Fine, heh heh," Hayate assured her.
"Well, I was cloned, and Erio was cloned, and the cyborgs were cloned," Nanoha listed off. "I think Scaglietti was cloned, too. But the report said the council just created him, so I don't know."
"So you don't, um, with Nanoha..." Arisa started, wondering how to delicately phrase it.
Fate looked confused. "Don't what?"
Suzuka tried to keep her shaky hand still as she tried for more tea.
"..don't, um, you know, together at night, in the same bed..." Arisa continued, then trailed off.
"Sleep?" Fate offered. "Most of the time, when we're both home. We also watch TV together in bed sometimes, too."
Hayate managed to duck this time as Suzuka sprayed again.
"Suzuka?" Fate questioned. "Are you feeling alright?"
"I-I, uh, think I need to use the restroom real quick," Suzuka stammered out.
Fate stood up as well. "Really? I'll join you. I really rushed over here so I haven't had the chance."
The two girls left, and Hayate sat back down. "Wow."
Arisa nodded. "I know. It almost makes a weird kind of sense. From what I know of Precia, and Fate's childhood, she may have never been taught. And they didn't cover sex education when Fate was in our school."
"But what about Nanoha?" Hayate asked. "Surely she had some sex education."
A deep dread struck Arisa. "Um..."
Hayate froze. "What?"
"Well, the thing is," Arisa began nervously, "with Nanoha having to go off for TSAB trips and assignments so often, I had to take her notes, and I was kinda embarrassed at the time with the subject and I thought she already knew and it was a small part of the health course which she passed..."
There was dead silence again for a few minutes, then Hayate stated, "So you're telling me.. Nanoha might not know, EITHER!?"
"Might not know what?" Nanoha asked as she arrived, smiling.
"Oh, N-Nanoha, h-how good to see you!" Arisa managed, feeling her nerves becoming as frayed as Suzuka's.
The pony-tailed girl sat down next to Arisa. "It's good to see you, too! Are you feeling okay? You seem nervous."
Arisa laughed... nervously. "H-heh, I'm fine!" Her mouth was feeling dry by now, and the tea looked so inviting...
"Where are Suzuka and Fate?" Nanoha asked.
"In the restroom," Hayate replied, then asked to forestall the question. "And we were just talking about you not knowing if Fate or you wanted another child?"
Nanoha opened up her menu. "Well, I actually talked about it with Fate one night in bed that a boy might be nice, but we realized there weren't currently any other children for adoption on Mid-Childa and... Arisa? Is the tea that bad?"
"N-no, I just had a hiccup or something," Arisa replied, wiping her lips and chin, and then the table.
Hayate took a deep breath. "Nanoha... this might be a strange question, but... you do know where babies come from, right?"
Nanoha didn't raise her face from the menu. "Of course I know where babies come from; Fate explained it to me."
*whump*
"Suzuka, are you okay?" Fate's voice came from around the corner. "Let me help you up."
"I'm fine, really!" Suzuka replied, as the two girls came around the corner and sat down.
"I see your group is all here," the waitress noted as she came up. "Are you all ready to order?"
"YES!" came the shout from three girls.
Nanoha and Fate just looked at each other in confusion.
---------------------
Bonus Ending:
"No, of course I don't believe that all babies come from cloning," Yuuno told her. "I mean, some do, obviously."
Hayate sighed in relief. "That's good. Because I think you'll need to explain it to Nanoha, and I can't do it, and I fear for Vivio."
He nodded nonchalantly and returned to his book. "Sure, I'll explain it to her the same way the Scrya clan did to me. A mini-griffin brings them wrapped in a cloth."
*whump!*
Yuuno looked up. "Hayate...?"
-----------------------
Alternate Ending:
"Well that was a good meal," Nanoha said, satisfied, as the two headed back to their car.
Fate nodded. "It was, although those three girls seemed a bit strange today."
"Did you keep them confused as per the plan?"
Fate nodded, and the two high-fived each other.
I really need to get back to real writing, now that I got this out of my head...
I laughed so hard at this, it's great! It's extra funny because I can honestly see both endings being true, so rereading it with either ending in mind changes the tone of the dialogue at certain points .
For those that belittle their favorite characters, complain about pairings, complain about oversexed images. Stop, thank you.
Fear Anxiety Doubt is but a fad. The life of a fad depends entirely on the willingness to support it. Difficulty is a choice. Determination is a path. Your next great idea after your destination is the true goal.
Oh where ,oh where, did AlternativeS has gone, oh where, or where can it be?
...
Yeah, I'm tired so I'm going to bed.
Lol get used to my fast updates?
Tomorrow is my Architecture class, which I normally complete in about an hour and a half out of the alloted 4 hours. I'll have plenty of time to work on it there.

Today, Geocities officially closes.
Fifteen years online and Geocities is finally closing its doors.
Thus, the end of a fanfiction era is upon us.
*Has a moment of silence for Geocities*
Wow, really? I remember making many a crappy website using Geocities back in grade school. It was the only thing I could use cuz I didn't know HTML (I still don't know HTML). These days I just contibute to [shameless plug] other people's sites.
This is like hearing that an old friend you haven't seen in years and barely remember has passed on. A moment of silence shall be had.
