At some point fairly early in her pregnancy (like around maybe the end of the first trimester), Tashi pops into a coffee shop she hadn't been to in a while, so as to get some hot cocoa, and maybe even a couple (read half dozen) pastries as a snack; as coffee wasn't really on the table so much anymore, due to her pregnancy.
And wouldn't you know it, the rather handsome man behind the counter turned out to be her old friend (and secret crush) from high school, a jackalope by the name of Archie (though it should be pointed out that "Archie" was just his nickname, but that's a story for another time).
Anyway, needless to say, Tashi became rather embarrassed by the situation very quickly since, well, there he was, looking cute with his perfect hair, and beautiful brown eyes, and his subdued, yet perfectly majestic antlers; while there she was, waddling into the store like some bloated bovid, ready to stuff her face with as much chocolate and creamy sugar-water as her maw would allow.
Oh well, I'm sure that the situation isn't as bad as it appears in her head; especially since Archie seems nice enough, if not even genuinely happy to actually see her - though maybe that's just because he hasn't seen her fully ravage a box of donuts yet.
After all, one should never get between a vixen and her pastries, especially when her pregnancy cravings are going into overdrive. =p
