Karen couldn't help but jerk in response to that voice. Figures even taking a vacation halfway across the universe she couldn't escape her new 'sidekick'. Turning, and not quite being careful not to hit Harley with her belly she gave it a little pat. "Might be. Didn't meet the father, but they said it was from a species most of the others here couldn't carry. Size or strength or something."

"But no, it definitely wasn't...him. And hopefully he won't find out I'm here." She didn't want to even say his name for risk of summoning him somehow. Turning a bit more she tried to get a gander at Harley, to see if she was in on the program yet herself.
