"Well, yeah? That's why I asked after all" Nero's kiss on her cheek after his little dance managed to land though which caused her to start physically 'loading' What was she expecting him to have done? She didn't know why it wasn't exactly what he just did but somehow it wasn't. "I-- I suppose it does" She'd stammer blinking in surprise as her face burned up once more.
The kids would all nod in answer to Zhalla being the one to take care of all forty-one of them and Zhalla would look bashful once more at Zukha saying she had a big heart for it. "I'm starting to see just how much your son takes after you Ma'am" Yup, for sure could see the resemblances, Nero had guessed at her soft side well before having even known of it!
Zhalla would offer the Namekian a smile when told Nero told her nothing but the truth-- But the saiyan also knew that the truth also held a couple things that she honestly thought the mother would've been less then favourably towards her for. "Oh?" She'd quirk an eyebrow and cast a glance to Nero when Zukha mentioned there being a few complaints, now what could those be? She could hazard a guess but was also curious on if there was anything beyond what he made glaringly obvious. Zukha seemed to believe the complaints were all things Zhalla was already made aware of but who knew maybe they weren't all things she knew about? Given Nero and his honesty though she doubted it was anything she hadn't heard or wasn't about to hear about soon enough anyways.
Zhalla made a sound that sounded almost as if she near choked and gagged on the air she breathed in during the moment Nero's mother mentioned about helping to plan a wedding or help design a room for a new arrival. If Zhalla had blanked earlier at the cheek kiss she flat out bluescreened here, feeling as though she could explode. Her face would of course noticeably go a bright red in colour and she'd even start to sweat from how hot her face got in response. Her head ringing with those key words Zukha had said. "W-W... Wed-- New arrival!?" Alomora would gasp excitedly. "Ohhh! Zha, are you expecting??!!" "N-no!" "You'd tell us if you were, right? You're gonna tell us when it happens, right right?" Zhalla could feel herself being seconds away from combusting as she raised a finger to try and give an answer to the Majin. "I-if that ever happens Alo" She maybe would've put more emphasis on the if there but did not dare in the presence of Zukha. "Then yes you'd be told, all of you would at some point, okay?"
"Okay! Can I help with the dress for the wedding too?" If Zhalla had of been capable she probably would've just melted into a puddle right then and there. Zukha had murdered her and Nero both flawlessly in one fell swoop, the power this woman had was insane. Maybe she could try and put this more back on Nero though or at least try and do so-- He could take some of the heat for a little bit surely? He got them into this mess after all! "That one's dependant on a certain someone proposing first you know Alo" She'd nod her head towards Nero to clue the Majin in as to what she meant-- Alomora would then promptly turn her attention instead to Nero much to Zhalla's amusement. "You'll do it won't you Mister Nero!? Can I help with your outfit too? Oh and your hair!"
She'd be drawn back though when Zukha asked on the sorts of things Zhalla said about Nero, just as quickly as she'd turned things she had them turned right back on her again! Could Nero's mother get any more powerful!? Zhalla could only hope the kids didn't help to further the Namekian's power here in their answer... "All nice things! Like how pretty and blue his eyes are" Okay, off to an alright start, "And that he's a really good fighter too, very skilled!" Not something she'd say to Nero herself but hey this wasn't too bad at least? Max would do a couple hand signs and whatever he'd said had clearly reminded Alo of a most crucial point to mention. "Oh yeah thanks Max! Almost forgot, she loves his hair too, the hairs' very good, and the scars, spending time with him, how he calls her Sunshine, and his face and--" "Alllllright thank you Alo, let's not bombard his mother with too many answers huh?" Max, you little traitor. Zhalla would pat the Majin and dog on their heads and smile-- Not daring to look at Nero right now.
Thankfully the topic of food would prove as a sort of semi-break from being eaten alive by this conversation. The little group would of course follow after as they made their way inside the house-- All of that had occurred before they'd even gotten inside the house... She'd be lucky if she survived this first visit at all, no doubt other groups of kids were going to want to come visit too there was no escape. She'd smile though watching all the stuff re-organize itself with just the flick of Nero's wrist as they entered the lounge room. "Are your brothers here today Mister Nero?" Harper would pipe up as he too watched the things float back into the places they should be. "They're probably at school right now like how we will be in a week or two's time Harper" Mosca would do a sort of 'boo' gesture as though this was a spooky thing to remind them all of.
