momentarylapse8's AU drabble suggestion "seahorses," with its obvious implications of mpreg, lodged itself in my mind and refused to unlodge. The aforementioned m.l.8 had rapidly followed the suggestion with a rhetorical "WTF?," but I was unable to refrain from indeed asking W of TF in question, and what began as a moderately noxious drawble snowballed into this towering inferno of cracktosity (if snowballs can infern). I apologize profusely, since the phrase "seahorse Jooster mpreg" probably never needed to occur on this planet. Or any other planet for that matter. I'm experimenting with styles here and I went a bit photoshop ballistic, but that's really the least of my sins...
(Also, IS, do you not have a "crack" tag? Did you not foresee that this day would come? I think it's in the Book of Revelations between the locusts and the seven-headed dragon.)
Edit: now with some unnecessary animations in the comments section. Seahorse Jooster - it's even more annoying as a gif!
Seahorses have an unusual reproductive strategy.
(Inspired by this photo of seahorses. Seriously how cute are seahorses with their intertwining tails and general glompiness?)
The gestation is also a challenging time for the pregnant seahorse's mate.
(The Snakehead fish can breathe air, climb trees and wipe out entire ecosystems.)
The mate visits the gestating father daily and performs a ritual reminiscent of the courtship. The father, meanwhile, produces massive amounts of the hormone prolactin to nourish the young.
Between 9 and 45 days later (depending on the species), the father gives birth. Seahorses can have as many as 1500 young,which are called fry.* The young are perfect miniature replicas of the adults.
*Science!canon. They are not, however, necessarily called Stephen.
(OK, huge apologies. If you put your head in your hands for a while and breathe deeply, it will probably be OK.)

Date: 2012-05-15 01:46 am (UTC)Love the aunt fish, esp. Aunt A. Aunt D is quite blunt, what with her comments re: ovipositor.
I just love it, love it, love it!
And I'm pimping it on my LJ, so there!

Date: 2012-05-17 06:29 am (UTC)Glad you like it though :) Aunt Dahlia is mortifying the way she goes on about ovipositors as if she was at her ladies' club!

Thou are not as seahorsey or pregnant.
