*Micaela laughed, burbling at the baby.*
"I don't think I'd want to curse a kid with being a vampire if they had the chance to be born mortal."

"Then adopt! And by the way, this isn't exactly a picnic. John's sort of dead so I'm stuck as a single mother now."
She sighed again, imagining raising Clara with John. The silly arguments they'd have had, the gifts he'd have given her, her arms wrapping around his neck like a little monkey. Who knows? Clara might even have had some little brothers and sisters!

*Micaela ruffled the baby's sparse hair and shrugged.*
"Maybe in the future. I practically raised my brother and sister, so I know it's not all fun."

Hallie grinned. "Pfft! At least you had help!" she teased.

*Micaela laughed.*
"I can still babysit, if you don't mind having her surrounded by a bunch of crazy gay performers who are my new co-workers."

*Micaela giggled.*
"I got hired to play Mimi in La Boheme at a sketchy theater downtown--but my co-workers are awesomely funny and mostly gay."

"Okay, I am so going to that theater sometime soon. And taking Clara. After all, she is the ultimate theater baby. Half famous actor, half theater nerd." She smiled down at the little child with pride. She wouldn't be surprised if her little girl played Annie in a professional production someday and won a Tony for it (which is totally not impossible on the 'verse).

*She laughed.*
"If we do anything with kids in it, I'll get her in."

"Well, if a production ever calls for an infant..." she joked. "But seriously, I don't think I'll let her get into that until she's old enough. And has taken a few classes, of course," she said, thinking of an incident she had read about where John had forgotten the name of his character and cursed on the stage. ((True story.))

*She laughed, and it felt good ot laugh with someone.*
"Well, I might get into composing an Opera verson of Les Mis, and it'll call for some waifs..."

"Excuse me? If you do put on Les Mis, she is going to be either Little Cosette or one of the lead females, depending on her fach. I won't have my little baby be a whore!" she joked with a silly, matronly tone.

*Micaela gasped, scandalized.*
"As if I could ever cast your baby as a whore! Of course she'll be little Cosette. I'm writing the music, though, So it may take a few years."

"Perfect. She needs about that long. And, lucky for you, she'll already know Castle on a Cloud from me."

*She laughed.*
"Not if I write a different song for her... what're you going to do then, huh?"
