Lmao, using her divine powers to check for day 1 pregnancy.
for half a second I thought Kate wasn’t wearing pants in panel 1 and was VERY surprised.
Can’t happen that fast anyway. It takes TIME for the swimmers to swim to the damn egg. They aren’t ferraris.
They are Ferraris. Estimates is that it takes between 15 and 45 minutes for a sperm to swim the 15-18 cm distance between the vagina and (the correct) uterine tube. And the chemical change that prevents more sperm to intrude is quick (and the 1 % or so double or more fertilizations are unviable). But typically the sperm has to wait 5-6 days, either before it dies or an ovulation takes place. Yuki could catch if there is a mistiming, or perhaps if there is sperm incompatibility (but if so she would tell them, I hope).
What takes time and is risky is an implantation of a fertilized egg. Between 6-10 days, depending on where it was fertilized, with an abortion rate between fertilization and a first trimester viable fetus that IIRC has been estimated to many tens of percent – sperm have it easy.
Granny Fox, it’s time we sat down and discussed this cooky modern notion of personal space…
