YOU did not think they come from eggs like turtles, Marcelon corrected. Everything has to come from eggs. Why wouldn't they?
"You're partly right," Solomon admitted, and Marcelon trilled, lifting her head in a smug sort of fashion. "Partly," Solomon emphasised, pulling himself closer to her shell so she didn't knock him away in her enthusiasm. "Turtles lay eggs and children are born from them after the fact. For humans, the children grow out of the eggs inside the mother and then are born live."
INSIDE the mother?! Marcelon squeaked, sounding horrified. There wouldn't be any room! You'd make your mothers explode! You'd-- Her mental voice dissolved into horrified images of Solomon and Bakura being birthed from the fragmented eggshell-like remains of their mothers (thankfully bloodlessly). Solomon put his forehead against her shell and laughed, and laughed.
It's not funny! Marcelon complained, flipping water up at him in a wave of spray.
