The word "spawn" is a bit...harsh, don't you think?

Straif · « **Reply #46 on:** January 25, 2014, 04:37:20 PM »

But accurate you have to admit.

Panzercrappitastica · « **Reply #47 on:** January 25, 2014, 04:38:14 PM »

Well, yes, but "children" would do just fine.

Not at all. Children are spawn. Deryn herself called them "Squalling brats", I believe.

At least twice. Besides, she's a Darwinist. Why would they not use slang from the very heart of their way of life normally?

Clankinist · « **Reply #50 on:** January 25, 2014, 04:44:33 PM »

Exactly.
Well..... she probably wouldn't call them spawn. Barlow might.

Utterly. This is BARLOW

She might make hers from eggs.
..........in a laboratory.

Please don't go there, you'll bring out the dark part of me that I try to hide.

Test tube babies

Panzercrappitastica · « **Reply #55 on:** January 25, 2014, 05:11:28 PM »

Like in the Matrix except not then used like batteries?

Straif · « **Reply #56 on:** January 25, 2014, 05:32:00 PM »

SOMETHING like that...though...I'm not seeing them as test tube. Too clanker.

Clankinist · « **Reply #57 on:** January 25, 2014, 05:53:02 PM »

So....eggs.

Straif · « **Reply #58 on:** January 26, 2014, 05:34:50 AM »

Yes...eggs...
