Asclepius wasted as little time as possible trying to herd to very-soon-to-be mothers into the elevator. He'd intended to take them to the second floor, where he knew the exam room and surgical area were, but then he noticed a new button for a fourth floor. Fourth floor? Since when had this place had a fourth floor, he wondered to himself. Almost more out of curiosity than anything else, he pressed the button for it, and, after some initial bafflement, was relieved to discover it was the perfect resource area for these births.

"All right, ladies, pick a bed you like, and I'll do a cursory examination on each of you in turn. Just to see where we all are, and make sure everyone's doing all right," he explained, "Some of you are probably going to be in this for a while, so once you've been checked over, just do whatever makes you comfortable."

Melpomene was just muttering a flow of swear words when she did speak. Getting her to a bed and no longer fully mobile was probably in everyone's best interest.

Mel yanked her hand out of his and slapped him across the knuckles. "Don't you fucking coddle me! This is all your fault in the first place. Go snuggle up to Erato and calm her ass down."

"Of course I realize it's my fault. Those are my children you're about to bring into the world, and I'm not leaving you until they've safely arrived," he insisted.

"Oh for fuck's sake! Then just keep off of me." She huffed and crossed her arms as best she could over her chest, looking in the opposite direction of him. She couldn't leave the room, so it was the best she could do.

"You're going to be fine," Apollo tried to assure her.
