"Hey, what's wrong with beach volleyball? Why, it's one of my favorite Olympic sports!"
TheRealMe's face brightens.
"Hey, I just realized that for the first time in a long time, we have all the Sereni-Tree kids here! Seraphina, SimonYeti, and Finn! Perhaps we should throw them a party or something. Maybe take them trick-or-treat on Halloween? Let's see. Seraphina and SimonYeti were born on the same day, as I recall, and Fin sometime afterward..."
EDIT: Seraphina (daughter of CallMeSerenity and SoulOfSerenity) and SimonYeti (son of Corbin the Yeti and her unnamed mate who was slain during the Boros Incident) were both born during Thread 49, on July 2, 2006 and July 17, 2006, respectively. However, in the way of comic books and television series, it all seemed to take place on the same day. I'll have to hunt a bit more for Finn.

In hunting for the birthdays, I found this cryptic event, just after the births. SimonWho has just finished delivering Seraphina and SimonYeti, and has gotten himself cleaned up:

Okay, I think I'm fit for human consumption now.
*wanders down to the baby shower*
Now then, what have I got for a baby? Ah, this should do.
*presses a tiny ball that looks like a pearl in Seraphina's hand. She grasps it instinctively*
Good girl.
*takes it back*
What? Oh... that's more of a future than a present. This might be more suitable for now.
*hands over a copy of All Aboard, a collection of childhood songs*
Congratulations again you two.
Doctor? Care to cast some light on this?

Seryn gave birth to Fin during Thread 54, around the end of the war on Zanzibar between the Immortals and the Octagonal Order. It was January 14, 2007.
Another baby mystery, this time with faeries:

Seryn, after spending a long time doing nothing much in particular and dozing here and there in the common room (since her safe and uneventful return from the planet) wakes up suddenly, and wonders what the strange cramping pains in her stomach are.
Then she realises.
"Oh dear..." getting up she goes to the nearest com unit and put a ship wide announcement out for the fairies, most of whom are sleeping off the peanut butter overdoses.
Then she goes to her room, changes and makes her way to the medi bay. Inside its all a bit glowy and ethereal, and she smiles, not even slightly worried.
Pausing to use the comms again, she leaves a message for Dr Simonwho "Hey, you might be needed in the infirmary, but no rush, the fairies are taking care of it"
Vaguely she wishes SR could have been there, then sighs and goes in.
Several hours later, Simonwho gets his message and rushes to the infirmary to find Seryn and the fairies gathered about a squaling little bundle. Seryn looks up and grins a slightly maniacal grin "isn't he lovely? a little darling, and it was so easy, it really didn't hurt at all, really didn't, i mean i thought it was going to be terrible, squealing and wailing all over the place, and that was just the guy who's arm I broke... but no, it was a peice of cake, bloody marvellous..." *giggles wierdly*
One of the fairies winced and smiled ruefully "I think I maybe over did it just slightly - always a hazard" reaching over she sit the now inanely giggling Seryn down and she promptly falls asleep "she did well, no particular problems, and the babys all fine"
One of the other fairies pipes up about changelings, but gets a clout around the ears.

you want a rational answer to anything that happened during that period?

I laugh in the face of rationality then I hide until it goes away.
Okay, come on Ervin, keep going to the ramp... faster... faster...
*they hurtle along the water then skid up the ramp, flying into the air*
Look right!
*in a split-second, Simon pulls a cheesy grin to his right while beneath them a shark leaps out of the water, snapping just inches away from SimonYeti's fur*
Yeeeeeeeeeha!
*Seryn gibbers a little, SimonYeti roars his approval and Simon angles them forward away from the safely penned in shark*
That... was... awesome! I've always wanted to do that.

TheRealMe turns back to SoulOfSerenity.
"So, Soul, did you ever get a chance to replace your bow and trick arrows that the FemaleReaver stole from you? She's long gone, by the way. We managed to toss her into hyperspace... I think you were part of that plot... and she eventually impacted ReaverWorld."
"Yeah, I remember that. That was a nice bow, too. No worries, though. My phasing has come quite a ways since we last spoke. I have a new bow and arrows, but they are phased out of reality just enough that they can only be handled by me. Should keep the loss down."
He spies Seryn out in the water and waves. "Are we having fun?" He sticks out his tongue.

No, 'cause I miss it too! That and his obsession with They Might Be Giants...
