The Magic Guild: Nesting
Six weeks and two days.
It's hard to concentrate on much of anything when that's all you've got left. And since she's already taken her leave from work so it won't happen in the middle of the semester, that means Mia doesn't have as much to do.
So today has been devoted to cleaning up her living quarters, the nursery in particular. And doing the baby's laundry so it will be ready for him. And making sure the baby's toys are clean. And then Draco's laundry and ironing Draco's work shirts and trousers. And then preparing things for tonight's dinner. And then her laundry while the inner slow-cooks. And then making dessert. And then folding all of those clean clothes and putting them away. And then the kitchen will have to be cleaned up, of course. And then the table should be set. And what about the bed, is it clean?
It sounds like a lot, but magic does help get it done. Though, once it's done, Mia finds she would rather it wasn't done and then does it again the muggle way to make sure it's done right.
At least it hasn't gotten to the point where she's ironing the baby's clothes...

"If you wash something else it's going to break apart from all the washing."
..oh, but then she would get to wash that.

"Oh Kaworu, welcome! I'm sorry the place is a mess."
Liar! She's cleaned twice already.
She straightens herself up and puts one hand on her back with the other on her belly.
"I was just straightening some things. It's not going to be long before the baby's here, so I might not get another chance before."

"Secondly, why don't we learn the meaning of a break, together?"
Has she, has anyone, ever seen that true smile of his, the one that almost makes the illusion of green in his eyes? Hmm.

They have attempted Kaworu's mission and failed.
"And I don't think a babysitter can take them so young. A wetnurse could, but I wasn't planning on employing one."
Mia rubs at her belly.
"Seems a lot of people think I could do with a break while I'm like this. It's not like I'm in labor right now and these chores must be done. But if you wish, I could entertain a guest instead."

But he knows it's a waste of breath, really. Birds of a feather, flock together, eh?
"I wish I can spend the most time with you on, and see this home of yours."
Winning tactic y/n?
no subject
He really shouldn't worry. The baby certainly isn't coming early.
"Oh, I'll be glad to show you around. I can walk yet in the Guild and I can make use of my carpet if we wish to go further."
