"I think I may be pregnant." 

The glass fell from Julian's hand. His mouth dropped open. "But...I 
thought, I mean, we..." 

"As did I," Garak replied. "However, this morning I noticed my 
shend'ara had softened. It's a classic sign." 

"...But I didn't even know you could become..." He touched the spoon-
shaped depression just above Garak's sternum. "Oh God." He ran for the 
medical tricorder. 

"I don't think there's much question," he called out. 

Julian scanned him, dropping to the sofa as he read the results. 
"Cardassian male, three weeks pregnant. Conception non-viable. 
Termination recommended." 

Their eyes met in shared dismay.
