Fridays on SciFi are very emotional now. The dino scene, in particular, brought on the pain for me.

The bits that get me are all the plans he liked to make with Zoe, about having a holiday, or buying a dress. Also the bit in HoG where Zoe's trying to talk him into trying for a baby. Argh, kills me.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Ooof! I haven't rewatched HoG since I saw the movie in May. That is going to hurt. I want them to have babies...

Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who matter don't mind and those who mind don't matter.

Also the bit in HoG where Zoe's trying to talk him into trying for a baby. Argh, kills me.

Yea!

"I want to meet that child one day."

Definitely gut punch.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Maybe he has sperm on ice somewhere, and .. and ...

Don't look at me like that.

Maybe she's already pregnant, is my theory. Because I too really, really want to meet that child some day.

Art Crawl!!!

No, no, I'm totally with you on that. . . I mean, it's future. . surely it will be much more common. then now.

If I only had a brain...

Maybe he has sperm on ice somewhere, and .. and ...

That's got to be SOP, right? right?

It has to be. Simon's got it safely tucked away for a rainy day.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

That's got to be SOP, right? right?

I think that by that time in the future, they should be able to spin up some DNA from a Wash tissue or blood sample (which Simon would probably have on ice), and then put that in some sort of future faux sperm for impregnation purposes. I mean, we're not that far off from being able to do that with our current technology.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Regardless of the genetics possibilities, the fact that any such child could only be raised by Zoe rather than Zoe and Wash would be heartbreaking.
