April 12: Kirin's Egg
118 34 5K (1 Today)
Published: April 13, 2009
The theme for April 12th on LJ: april_drawing was 'eggs' -- very fitting for Easter. Unfortunately, the boys have outgrown dyeing Easter eggs and now prefer to eat them so I couldn't draw ON eggs.
So I drew one.
Like most expectant fathers, Kirin is going to be from time to time just a liiiiiiiiittle obsessive about his child-to-be. Therefore, if he disappears for a few hours, one of the places that Ariana checks is the clan rookery where more often than not, her wayward mate can be found doting on their egg.

There is a fan theory going around that female gargoyles have pelvic bones that are made of a few separate bones held together with very strong muscles. These loosen during egg laying, allowing the pelvis to open much like a snake's jaws.
Not sure what Greg Weisman thinks of this.

(smiles) That is very good drawing of Kirin and Ariena. I guess all Dads are like that when they know they are going to be a father again or like you said before becoming a first time dad.
Alright you got me: that is cute--and I'm a dude; but one day I'll have that feeling.
I always wondered how that slim garg body could pass an egg like that. o.O
As always, awesome work <3

Let Kirin dot on the egg. After all those 30 years of pain Kirin went through thanks to a whore and all the intolerance he had to face from an ambitious clan leader and a over-protective time dancer, Kirin deserves to savor this unique moment.
Beautiful work

I did boil some up but then I put them in potato salad.
heh.
heh.
Nothing wrong with that.
Adorable. I love their expressions.
Aww, this is so tender. Funny too. 
I like to think he's singing that same lullaby the Master Splinter was singing in the recent TMNT movie.
Doesn't it take, like, 10 years for a hatchling to gestate inside an egg?
Yep, the female carries the egg for a year, lays it, and then the embryo grows for ten years before hatching with the rest of its rookery. You can read more about Gargoyle eggs here if you want [link]
The female carries it for six months, not a year. She concieves in September and lays the egg in March.
