His lactation was not proceeding apace, he noted with worry. It was possible, scientifically possible, but the baby had starved enough that it was having trouble sucking and without that--his shoulders shook with suppressed sobs. Manly sobs. He reassured himself that he was still 100% manly. When the kid grew up (he wouldn't let himself think if), he'd teach it to fight and hunt and swear and drink beer. If they ever escaped this hellhole. He didn't allow himself to think about the kid's mom. They didn't know if she was alive or not. He hoped that she was. He hoped that the freaking asshole aliens had just not realized--


Inspiration: Weird news story about a male Swedish college student who has begun pumping his breasts at 3-hour intervals to see if he can produce milk.
Potential: Low.
Notes: Weird news, yes. Interesting story, no. Though it's good to keep in mind in science fiction that there's no reason aliens would understand human family/nurturing structure instinctively. Or vice versa.
