[ This Riku's mostly been trying to keep to herself lately, but right now she's settled into a recliner in the library, flipping through a novel. Or, she was. Now the novel is lying open on the coffee table in front of her, spotted with blood as she yanks tissues out of a box. ]

[Miguel?]

[What if it's a girl.]

[dawningcoast]

[Chel I don't know.]

[stillunburned.livejournal.com]

[If you say so.]

[dawningcoast]

[In all honesty, Riku's actually very curious what type of names he likes. She might kick him if he goes through the whole book without even mentioning something.]

[stillunburned.livejournal.com]

[He's not sure what type of names he likes! He's never put much thought into it in his nearly forty years.]

[dawningcoast]

[Sucks for you, old man. They've got a deadline of two months.]

[stillunburned.livejournal.com]

[Maybe he should close his eyes and point at a page.]

[dawningcoast]

[Well it would be... progress. But you know how selecting things like that goes.]

[stillunburned.livejournal.com]

[Maybe they should call it Horatio!]

[dawningcoast]

[... Horatio. Why Horatio?]

[stillunburned.livejournal.com]

[No idea, his eyes just passed over it.]

[dawningcoast]

[Alas.]

This is harder than it should be.

[stillunburned.livejournal.com]

[No, you.]

It's too bad they don't come out already named.

[dawningcoast]

That would make things too easy.

[stillunburned.livejournal.com]

[Scoffs.]

Right, because the raising is the easy part.

[dawningcoast]

Compared to giving birth, I'm looking forward to that part more.

[Flips a page.]

[stillunburned.livejournal.com]

About that!

[Cannot believe he's about to do this.]

If you want, I'll switch my pain off while that's going on so you can have a punching bag. Not that you probably wouldn't anyway! But I figured I'd let you know I'll do it voluntarily.

[dawningcoast]

[Blinks, looks at him... fff laughs.]

Really.

[stillunburned.livejournal.com]

Really. Not like it'd hurt me, right?

[dawningcoast]

Guess not. You're right, though. I'll probably hit you at least once either way.

[Unless she can't reach him. Then it will be dark firaga time.]

You sure going along willingly is the best idea?

[stillunburned.livejournal.com]

Would you prefer if I went and hid somewhere?

[dawningcoast]

I'd find you.

[stillunburned.livejournal.com]

After a few days, sure, considering you wouldn't exactly be able to hunt me down in the middle of giving birth.

[dawningcoast]

You'd just get it worse for that.

[Scans a page.]
