Lost, Juliet/Sawyer, Juliet/Richard, domesticity, confessions, wet & dirty, AU (I'm not sure if you ever saw this on your dharmadays comm. for challenge 1, but here's a snippet commentfic of it for you--it's a little different from what I've written already, and with some details that've been WIP for a while), the cuckoo bird:
Sawyer gaped when Juliet and Daniel returned on the sub--though mostly his eyes were on the woman's growing stomach. (The only answer she'd ever given him on who the father was just her eliminating Jack as the prime suspect.)
"Thought you left?" He asked her, dazed, once they're in private. A little more forcefully, he said, "What about the Island being leth--"
"I got sick," she cut him off, and damn if she didn't actually look pale.
Sawyer shot Daniel an alarmed look. The scientist nodded, looking even more ill, "I wondered if time travel still had some effect--she had some symptoms…similar, to Charlotte's…" Dan shook his head, continuing quietly, "But Juliet thinks it's a reverse of the problem she dealt with before--er, later--that is--"
"I don't think I can safely deliver the baby off the Island," Juliet cut in smoothly, staring Sawyer in the eye.
"Why the hell would that happen?" He snarled lowly, with the full expectation that she would dryly snap back something like 'how the hell should I know? I've never even figured out the first pregnancy problem--'
"I think it has something to do with the father," she said instead.
Sawyer stared at her; glanced at Daniel, who nervously looked away, and damn it, Twitchy knew before him....
"How the hell could daddy dearest have anything to do with you and the kid dying if you're not back here on Craphole Island--?"
"Because Richard's the father."
And Sawyer couldn't even summon up a "sonofabitch" to his lips, he was too damn surprised. Not about her and Guyliner being involved--they were all on Team Other for a while back there, comrades and crap like that, and she had asked for him, so certain he'd be there in the 50s, and he was…and still here, same as ever, in the 70s. An unreal ageless freak, only on Craphole Island would you find something as insane as that--and what was surprising how it seemed to fit whatever weird shit was going on with Juliet's pregnancy with him being the father and all.
"Dan?"
"Juliet?"
The three turned to find Jin and Miles catching up to the rest of their fellow time travelers in Sawyer's living room.
"What are you--Jim, what's--"
Miles turned to Sawyer, but he just shook his head, growling, "I'm getting a drink," leaving it up to Blondie and Twitchy to explain the whole damn thing again.
