"Wait a minute! What's that?" Oisin demanded suddenly.

"What's what?" Farley asked, raising her head. Her whippet companion had stood up suddenly and walked over to Lena, pressing his face against her stomach. Farley tilted her head before getting up to follow after him.

"I can't really explain it," he said, head pressed to Lena's stomach. "But there's something… something about Lena."

"Something something?" Farley asked in slight amusement, head still tilted.

"I'm serious!" Oisin whined at her and Farley knew at once that he was, as he had said, being serious. He was not joking this time. There was something funny about Lena right now, something different, and even if neither of them quite understood it, something big was happening…

Well, in time, Farley and Oisin would come to learn that Lena was pregnant.

"OMR! OMR!" Farley yapped when she finally heard Kara break the news.

"What? But I thought that wasn't possible?" Oisin shook his head in amazement and disbelief.

"Well then again, this is Lena we're talking about here," Farley said, shaking her head in amusement while her legs continued to tremble from excitement. If there was anyone out there who could figure out a way to impregnant a female human with the child of a female Kryptonian, it was Lena. (And although the dogs didn't know it, Lena was chosen to carry the child just because she wasn't sure if/how a Kryptonian would carry a pregnancy on Earth under a yellow sun. Because human pregnancies were a lot better studied, Lena opted to be the one to carry the child).

"Fair enough," Oisin agreed, legs also shaking as he looked up at his pregnant owner. Because she was still early on in the pregnancy, one could not tell by looks alone that Lena was carrying a child, but it all clicked in Oisin's head immediately. That had been that odd little… something that he had sensed earlier, even if he hadn't been able to put his paw on it then.

"Oooh! That means we're getting a littermate!" Farley whined excitedly, still jumping up and down for joy. Oisin, meanwhile, gave a nervous smile. Although he was honored and delighted to think that was about to have a littermate, it would be a lie to say he wasn't a little scared. But Farley seemed nothing but excited and ready. Oisin could only hope that some of her confidence would eventually rub off on him…

Roughly nine months later, Alura "Lori" Luthor-Danvers took her very first breath and her eyes opened to see two beautiful women smiling down at her, tears in their eyes. One was a young blond with bright blue eyes. She was muttering in Kryptonian, speaking about how many wonders the little girl would come to know and love as she grew up. The other woman had dark hair and hazel eyes and she was too overcome to do anything but weep softly and brush the little brown tuft of hair on the baby's soft head.

"I can't believe you did it!" Kara whimpered into Lena's hair as she gently held one of Lena's arms.

"No, we did it, Kara," Lena murmured back, finally taking her eyes off their child to look into Kara's. The two shared a short but loving kiss as the world got to welcome in its newest and youngest member of the Superfriends. That child was going to have so many loving aunts and uncles…

"OMR! OMR!" Farley yapped when the baby finally came home.

"Woah, there, Farl, calm down!" Kara held out a hand to hush Farley.

"But Moooooommm! I wanna see our new littermate!" Farley whined, though she did sit down at last (albeit quite reluctantly).

"I thought you'd never shut up!" Oisin teased her, but it wasn't like he was doing much better. Even though he hadn't barked, or even whined, he had been pacing the entire day and Farley got tired just watching him. Back and forth, back and forth, back and forth, back and forth, back and forth, tail and ears twitching impatiently for the time when their owners would return home with their new littermate.

Kara carefully carried Lena over to the couch before setting her down gently. Lori was still asleep in Lena's arms.

"What a cute, sweet little bean!" she murmured, sounding so in love with the infant already. Although Lena had since come to learn that she was indeed loveable and worthy of love, getting to see this new child that was her own lying so sweetly and trustingly in her arms was just so astounding that she felt beyond humbled and couldn't help but ask again if she was really worthy of such a beautiful blessing.

"Just like you, my Lena Bean," Kara replied, sitting beside Lena to wrap Lena and the baby both up in her arms.

The dogs approached reverently and quietly. Even though it was clear that Farley wanted to howl to the entire world that she now had a new littermate, she managed to restrain herself and the only visible sign of her excitement was her shaking legs. She even managed to still her tail, and impressive feat for someone so hyper and energetic. She lowered her ears and approached Kara in a docile and submissive posture. Kara knew exactly what Farley was trying to convey and gently tapped Lena on the arm. Lena smiled, nodded, then leaned forward ever so slightly to let Farley have her first sniff of her new littermate.

"She's so soft and small and tiny and fragile and cute and sweet and squishy and-" Farley whined a little in her excitement but she managed to restrain herself once again, only gently sniffing at little Lori's sweet, sleeping face. Then once Farley's turn was done, she respectfully backed up and gestured for Oisin to step forward. His ears cocked forward nervously, but a soft, gentle, inviting look from Lena gave him courage.

"C'mon, Ushy, she won't bite," Lena joked sweetly.

"Ok, mum," Oisin wagged his tail nervously before stepping closer and resting his head on Lena's knees. He peered at the tiny, sleeping child in Lena's arms and felt a rush of warm, affection and amusement for it. It was just so small and helpless, tiny and tender. And it looked kind of silly, all squishy-like and whatnot. She looked so peculiar and yet so adorable as well.

"Isn't she absolutely beautiful," Kara asked Oisin in a hushed voice and he had to admit, she most certainly was.

"She looks so funny and yet, she's cute, and pretty, and sweet. She has a nice face, and hair and eyes," he decided, stepping away again.

"You kidding, Ushy? She's got a nice everything!" Farley replied, eagerly going back for a second sniff of her new littermate.

"Ha! I think Farley's really ready to be an older sister!" Lena laughed as Farley approached her for a second time.

"Let me see the pup, let me see the pup!" Farley demanded.

"I couldn't agree more!" Kara laughed as she picked Farley up and set her on her lap so that she could get a better look at Lori.

"Yeah, this kiddo is going to have it so good here," Lena smiled softly, caressing the baby's warm, chubby face with a finger. "She's got so many loving aunts and uncles, and our dogs will love her too…"

"I mean, they already do!" Kara laughed as Oisin also stepped forward again, less nervous than before, curiosity overriding his worry.

"She'll have so many people looking out for her," Lena continued, nodding her head happily. Kara paused to give her wife a gentle look, caressing her cheek tenderly. She knew what Lena was really worried about: this child walking in her footsteps. But she was trying so hard to convince herself that things would be better now. Like she, herself, had just said, this child would grow in a world of love. It was more than Lena ever had. And even though that was a tragic thing to think, it was a hopeful thing as well. This child would grow in a world of love. What a wonderful thing that was to say, and how lucky Lena felt to be able to see it unfold!

"She'll have the best parents in the multiverse," Kara agreed with a smile, kissing Lena's cheek.

"I know," Lena replied with a smile, then she turned her head to kiss Kara back. "After all, I have the best wife in the multiverse!"

"What? No! I do!" Kara pretended to argue and the two playfully went back and forth for a bit longer while Lori continued to sleep in Lena's arms. Farley was still sitting mostly on Kara's lap, but already her head had extended out towards Lori's own head in a very protective manner. Likewise, Oisin was sitting in front of Lena with a protective look on his face as he contemplated his new littermate.

"I promise I'll do my best to always protect you, pup," he told the infant. "I'll play with you every day and teach you the ways of the world, both as dog and human and as Super and Luthor! You'll love it! I promise! It's exactly what your moms would want, after all!"

"You're going to have such a fun life here!" Farley agreed, tilting her head as she regarded the baby fondly. "Every day will be even more epic than the last and you'll have so many other wonderful pack members to look up to and play with! We'll go on so many adventures together!"

"And we'll all do our best to teach you how to live right," Oisin finished. "Welcome home, new littermate."

"Yes," Farley agreed. "Welcome home, new littermate."

And from that day onward, the Luthor-Danvers pack gained another member.

AN: Here you go, AaronScarlet! Hope you liked it! (And thx so much for all your votes and reviews on all my other stuff! I really appreciate it!)

To everyone else, man it's been a while since I've worked on this fic! It was nice getting to come back to it after so long!

And yes, I sort of retconned the Talker Collars. I kind of like Oisin and Farley being more dog-like and the collars kind of get in the way of that, but if anyone wants to see more of the collars in the future, of course I will bring them back. Canonically, they still exist, they just aren't used very often (for plot-convenience reasons because, again, I kind of like Oisin and Farley being more dog-like).

Anyway, hope you guys enjoyed this impromptu update!
